Interview and  gameplay


Castlevania Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate (Nintendo 3DS) - Avance de Enric Álvarez

Ok this is what he says:
first he starts talking about how konami comes to them to take care of the CV franchise and he says he thinks they must be joking asking where are the candid cameras, then he says they gave them total creative freedom wether its story, graphics, gameplay, telling us it shows in LoS and it s gonna be noticeable in MoF, then he goes to say the events of LoS continue in MoF but in a special way, then he goes on to say that the 3ds was perfect to continue in a narrative standpoint and once konami and nintendo agreed they started the project and he says konami was very courageous to start a middle chapter in the 3ds, then he goes on to talk about the 2.5d and how the 3d is more noticeable because of the fixed camera showing the action plain while behind it shows other stuff thats happening at the same time, then he goes on to say they felt they should make an homage to the roots of the saga, he then says its a game with an emphasis in combat and a an exploration componant very similar to previous games in the classics saying its acolage of ideas from the games then he ends saying they hope they made a great game and hopes people like it

That Alvarez video runs a lot smoother than the feed.

Here's hoping the demo is an old build. Wouldn't be the first time

Yes for Sonia after all how can someone deny this?

Damn, I still believe that Sonia's design was WASTED on Legends. She should've gotten a better game.

Mentioning David cox and Dracula's Curse in the same sentence makes we want to vomit.

Hey guys, check it out at 1:12-1:24 on the video link on Youtube. Are those "Flea Man"? That part was actually hilarious! It does really reminds me of "Despicable Me" movie. Lol! XD

They definitely have to be...and it looks like they'll do their job of annoying both the other enemies and the player!

Just once I'd love to see these so-called "journalists" in the gaming press asking some probing questions.

Has anyone ever put Cox's fan credentials to the test?  I'd laugh my ass off if he couldn't even tell us Trevor's Japanese name.

Or --to be fair...  Alucard's real name.  Since that was actually in the game.

What if the third Belmont is Gabriel....Belmont.

worst post in the thread

Your incessant hatred of Cox is seriously annoying and immature.


The game looks...actually really quite good. It's definitely LoS in 2D, but it doesn't look as non-Castlevania as I thought it would be. Those hunchbacks are HILARIOUS, I love Mercury Steam's sense of humor. LoS had a little bit of those quirky moments too.

What made me initially hate the idea of the combat being like LoS was because I assumed enemy placement would be similar to classic games. If the pacing is broken up into platforming, exploring, combat, like LoS, then it doesn't sound like a bad thing at all. It's more focused, I was just afraid we would be dealing with Bloodrayne levels of stupid combos.

I've played LoS and I enjoyed it enough to consider it a good game, so I think I'll end up liking MoF too now that it has a more "Castlevania" focus in it's overall direction.

I have to say, the game looks really gorgeous too. MS has some of the greatest artists in this industry right now.

I wouldn't worry about the music and in game SFX, they're all just placeholders.
