Topic: I think I know the main reason why I dislike IGA

Haven't any of you realized yet? If you express any of your own personal opinions on this forum, you will be treated like Saddam Hussein.

I remember when I got slammed for saying that Curse of Darkness is my favorite Castlevania game, and Symphony of the Night is overhyped.

Crap.. I just expressed my opinion, didn't I? I will leave now.

I'm pretty darn excited about OOE, to be honest. Being able to explore outside of the castle will be fun, even though I'm sure the level designing will be much the same. But I'm hoping there will at least be nifty backgrounds and sprites to look at. :P The recent games haven't always had the best looking in-game artwork, but overall they're really good.

I dunno, something just tells me that OOE will be the best of the DS games. Well, here's hoping...

Koji Igarashi stood alone. Waiting, by himself, just 15 feet or so away from the Castlevania Judgment demo station set up at this year's E3. It was as if he was searching for something. For validation. I believe it would have made his day for even one individual to have walked up to the game, played for a while, and exited with a smile on their face. But it didn't happen.

The fanboy legions of Nintendo consoles are a force to be reckoned with, and it seems like most all of them have already written off this Castlevania fighter -- specifically because it's a fighter. The shared sentiment seems to be that it's great that Castlevania is making its debut on Wii, but in the form of a fighting game it's undesirable. While we can't offer a compelling counterargument to the contrary, it is safe to say that's it far too early to judge Judgment -- the completed title may well surprise several of the naysayers. And the Wii is not a console overcrowded with other options for fighting fans, either, so it could very well find itself a fair-sized amount of sales this November. The word is still out on Castlevania Judgment, so stick with our coverage in the next two months and the full review that arrives in November to learn, for sure, whether or not Iga was right to be sad.

While I'm hopeful for OOE, Judgment really does look like a steaming pile. I don't even play fighting games for one thing, and even if I did, I don't know if I could be excited for this.

Sucks that IGA had no one come to the booth or whatever at E3, but I'm not gonna boo-hoo for him over a crummy-looking game and nobody showing interest. Now No More Heroes, a truly excellent game, hardly got any attention in Japan. The director, Goichi Suda, was at a store for a signing on release date, and nobody entered the store to purchase his game. Talk about a kick in the balls. That game deserves all the praise in the world.

Suda's games aren't for everyone. NMH wasn't, neither was K7. They are more like insider-tips. I really love both of them, but I can totally understand, why they aren't popular.

That's 'cos Suda is so ahead of the curve and people don't like things that are new and awesome.
