Definitely.

For one, if IGA's really involved, I don't really want him pulling his "Ohoho, the game has a mirror gimmick, so the new main character is going to be Mirror Belmont who fights with his mirror image, Mirrorcard" I mean really, adapt the gimmick to fit the world, not the other way around.

For two, I don't see how camera's and Castlevania go together at all.
Let's see if it's Cox who did the gimmick and the comments about it then.

You just won't let up will you?

If Cox makes a shitty camera gimmick, I'll give him crap about it too. But so far he has not, so all I get to talk about when I bitch about gimmicks is IGA.

EDIT: Just realized how dumb that statement was.

CORRECTION: If Enrique makes a shitty camera gimmick, I'll give him crap about it too. But so far he has not, so all I get to talk about when I bitch about gimmicks is IGA.

There's a fine line between intrusive gimmick and innovative feature.
I hope this time it stays on the right side.

Everything comes full circle

The camera usage does definitely sound like an IGA thing. But for me the excitement is, "2D game! With co-op! Kinda like the old games! Oh, and there's some camera thingy too but 2D!!!"

Of course, there's still the possibility that this is simply all the elaborate work of a top secret troll network and Konami actually has nothing for E3 besides Revengeance. Which would be incredibly tragic.

Not to mention, if this does turn out to be IGA's game, I'm not exactly hopeful that Konami's going to give him a lot of budget to work with. Because, well, they're Konami.

Is it too much wishful thinking if we hope that being under Kojima Productions seal it gets a little, just a little more money enough to make it good? I hope so!



P.S: I love you guys

If Cox and Enrique are related to it at all, I'd wager Konami will give the project the funds it needs, seeing as there's nothing coming out of Konami right now besides Revengence.

And Revengence looks terrible.

Dracula. I'm sure he's not at all happy about waking up to yet another face-whipping.

Goddammit Konami, do another live conference!

So far.

What I wanted was an innovative Metal Gear Solid game with a new unique combat system.

What I'm getting is Raiden May Cry

While I'm highly anticipating Revengeance, I totally sympathize with your complaint of "Why is my favorite game series suddenly changing audience/genre?" It's stupid and companies need to learn to make new IPs.

I kind of wish Revengeance were a Nanobreaker reboot actually.

That's why the game is a spin-off. I consider only the numbered titles/remakes the ones canonical do the series.
