Yes another poll...  Not much else to discuss with the lack of news happening.

A game that combines the complexity of SotN, the cinematics of CoD, the balance/difficulty of CVIII, and the graphics engine of Akumajou Arcade!

I was hoping the rumors about more than one 1999 game would be true.  Make it a big event with many facets and angles and excuses to make games of all sorts of kinds.

I would like to see a GOOD 3D CV, and, that, the greatest battle of all saga, is the perfect choice for that.

NO MORE 2D!, BRING ME MORE HD 2.5 AND 3D!

I like both the 3D and the 2D games, there is just no way to compare them. Even if 2D is not something new and 3D seems more "real" 2D is just something special on it's own, something 3D can't achieve.

Back on topic:
I voted 3D CV64/LOD
why? I loved the fact that castlevania 64 had both exploration and platforming combined. What I'm hoping to see is something along the same lines in game play, better controls, more re playability (was already a plus point in castlevania 64 since they had actual alternate stories), and an improved horror factor.

The last one might not be obvious to most people.
The great thing about castlevania 64 is in one word: Malus, the kid freaked me out. Did then and still does now. If Dracula is the lord of darkness and stands for about anything evil and dark, I'd be realistic for him to hoard horrors that even make Belmonts turn in their sleep.

I'm not saying that castlevania should be transformed into a horror adventure, I'm just saying that a little bit more of the horror factor implemented would increase the whole awe of castlevania itself. No longer just a pretty looking castle but an actual creature of chaos.

Yes, castlevania needs more horror, I mean, dracula is the Lord of Darkness, he's EVIL not a beautiful male-super model (That sounded gay xD) and his plans are evil, Dracula needs a plan!

Ok, so it's nearly a tie between "Castleroid -State of the Art 2D" and "3D --Something New"
