See, that would make too much sense, and it's been made very obvious that MS wants to pit the Belmonts up against Dracula. If Trevor found out that Gabriel was not responsible for Marie's death due to being controlled and had since then not only taken revenge for the act but also saved the world TWICE and gave up his humanity specifically to do so, he'd have to be pretty emotionally stunted to take that information and continue with "I still hate you vampire dad!".

Plus since the Belmont hunt Drac!Gabriel to modern day times, how much do you want to bet that either that huge gaping plot thread is still dangling right in front of everyone's face OR Cox forces some other "unspeakable act" upon Clan Belmont for them to blame Gabe for in order to keep things moving along? It's the only explanation I have for everyone conveniently forgetting/not knowing Gabriel saved all of humanity twice over and got super screwed over in the end. (I'm sorry MS, but you made Gabriel The Woobie and I can't see him as being anything but the tragic hero/villain now and I want my catharsis for him, dammit!)

Sindra, you are a cruel mistress. Can't a boy dream? :P (+1)
I'll say this. Being raised by an order of holy knights for the exclusive purpose of killing your own father-turned-evil-vampire probably would leave you that emotionally stunted. Also, the Belmonts in this continuity exhibit a certain... shortsightedness. Let's just say they could use some anger management lessons.

Oh, you mean some combination of Laser-Guided Destiny, Blood Knight and Contractual Genre Blindness befalls anyone with the name Belmont.

Sounds about right.

I'm a TVTroper as well.
I've edited only ONE article... I don't even remember which one it was, but it had Castlevania in it.

You can imagine I edit the Mega Man page when I spot something wrong.
Laura and Gabriel arrive in the deepest cave of the castle and... they find IGA.

I'm not very familiar with TVTropes, so I had to look those up. But, yeah. That pretty much it.

Yes, but with the knowledge it grants, our life is but a small price to pay.

It is precisely because it never cared, that people do care.  It's something which it's lacking, because that which it has, it has lackluster of.

You are now reading this in Robert Belgrade's voice.

Then Lords of Shadow 2 just takes a big, semi-solid, smelly, pea-green dump all over everything.

It really does.  ;D I can never get too much else done once I start reading there. Matter of fact, I'm on there right now, reading up on Hellsing. (Bored)

If I was them, I'd use these 2 next months polishing the Framerate...

I think what you mean to say is, use the next two months for publisher and Nintendo certification. Then cartridge, manual, and case manufacturing. Then shipments to get them to the stores by the release date.

Whatever they have right now, is whatever we're getting.

I'm still hoping that they will make a legit limited edition for the game. Not some preorder case gimmick.

HO HO HO "Pre-order now and receive a limited special "Heroes" Costume pack!additional charges may apply" -USA only

Chances for a Konamistyle Limited Edition like what they did for OoE, DXC, etc.? Slim to none. (still Japan-only)
Chances for a package with a couple extra 3DS skins or a keychain charm, maybe even a mini-replica of Trevor that's exclusive to Europe only? Pretty damn high.
