Lol I really disliked that unlockable very much.

Nothing against Metal Gear, but this is CASTLEVANIA and I much would have preferred to have had I unlockable CASTLEVANIA costume or piece rather than a headband and eyepatch.

But I understand why they through it in there, to pay a little homage to Kojima for his help, but I just did not like that it was the ONLY Additional costume piece we got.

I would have at least preferred the whole Snake outfit. You can barely even see either of them unless it's during a closeup in a cutscene, and even then the damn bandanna is like... invisible.

yea a whole entire suit would have been a good idea.

At least that way it would have been more bearable that we did not get a CV themed suit or accessory.

But just a bandana and eyepatch just seemed like far to little for a unlockable.

I would've enjoyed a Simon Belmont costume or something, rather than the eyepatch.  I don't use the eyepatch but I do use the bandanna (Richter-ish?).

If I could ignore him like you can people on Gamefaqs, I would.

We have an ignore feature on our forum.  Go to your Profile.  On the left there should be a "Buddies/Ignore List".  Just add the inflammatory troll/annoying user's name as it is on their profile, to the list and automagically, their posts will be minimized.  You then have to click on their post to open it and see the bile.

Dang it you beat me to it, but since I am at it a Trevor CoD outfit maybe a recolor of his curent outfit to blue so it looks like Richter somewhat, as for Simon make him look like his SCIV look if possible and remixes of LoS themes in 8/16 bit I know it would be awesome

But he already wears a Simon Belmont outfit.

[DarkPrinceAlucard]

No, he wears a Simon Belmont "Inspired" outfit.

Or more specifically, a apparent SCIV Simon belmont inspired outfit.

I myself would like to have seen Gabriel in Simon's classic barbarian attire lol.

I thought it was inspired by Simon's Quest outfit?

[A-Yty]

I quite liked the Solid Snake bandana/eyepatch you got, and I wouldn't mind a return of that (along with other nifty things of course), but hopefully the game will be more worth another playthrough as going through the levels again in LoS felt like a chore.

I'm an MGS fan, but that unlockable was completely pointless and out of place. I hope there will be no more of that crap.

I recall hearing that.

But I also recall hearing it being inspired by his SCIV armor.....now I'm confused lol.

Cox got inspiration from SCIV in aesthetics, but Gabriel's armor was definitely inspired by Simon's in Simon's Quest.

Looks like it's completely possible to pass random enemies. I have no doubt there will be "kill everything" rooms, but it's nice to know they added that for the sake of backtracking.

Considering Aruajo won the "Best Original Score for a Video Game or Interactive Media" award for Lords of Shadow, I doubt they'll be changing the music style.

Out of curiosity, have any other Castlevania soundtracks won awards, or even been nominated for them?

What award from what venue? That Film Music Critics Award?

If we're putting quantitative values on the soundtracks of the Castlevania games and how many "honors" that they are received, then I could probably point to all the major video game websites, blogs and magazines from the past 15-20 years and find "Top Lists" and "Best Soundtracks" where past Castlevania music is ranked high if not top-tier against some of the best gaming music of all time.

How exactly that stacks up to a single award given by a film critics association is all a matter of each individual person's opinion.
