Topic: TGS 2008 Game?

[angevil]

By the way, I'm pretty sure that some guy at Konami said the Alucard game was in "freeze mode" and I believe this was said AFTER E3 2010. I'm sure of it.           

E3 2010 is yet to happen. Are you from the future? I hope we get more news at E3, hopefully there will be another CV on 3DS, by IGA! Maybe it is that Alucard game and it found its way to the handheld.

Oh, I meant E3 09.

Let's just be patient and wait to here the official word on whether the Alucardvania is canceled or not.  The only canceled CV I know of was Resurrection for dreamcast and that we had an official word on.  We have yet to have one for the Alucardvania.  The game is likely in a "freeze mode" and will likely stay that way until a few months after LoS is released.  As I said, we should just be patient and wait for the official word of cancellation, that is if it is truly canceled.

Yes, let's be patient. I'm still super curious to what IGA's doing with Konami. He's working on SOMETHING.

But, I am wondering, also, what the American team was pitching. If it was anything like Resurrection(which was also American), it might've been for the best.

Well, anyhow, if there is a sliver of a chance, and we are getting other games AFTER LoS, who knows? My guess was that, if IGA's still a part of the CV team at Konami, maybe he's holding out to see what Mercury Steam does with LoS, and taking notes on how to do things right.

There's also a chance that whatever the american team pitched, will end up being a new game, unrelated to Castlevania. Unless Konami was really just looking for ONE game and threw everything else away. Sounds like such a waste of time for both the japanese and the american teams though...

Agreed.

It DOES seem like a waste of time, especially considering how much it must cost to make a trailer to showcase your pitch. I mean, add on to that the potential of the teams coming up with their own characters, story ideas and such, just to build a teaser around them.
