Well, hopefully the Titans aren't the only bosses, right?

The armor dude is clearly a boss. as well as the ogre is smaller than the titan. So it seems like all boss fights are not titans.

we'll i just pray that he atleast includes some of the CLASSIC bosses like
Medusa
Frankenstein
Wolf Man
Minataur
and
DRACULA just to name a few ;D
also
he better have Medusa heads in that Clock Tower because we all know since day 1 a CV clock tower isn't a clock tower without Medusa heads lol ;)

I find it interesting to see how Dave doesn't like to compare Lords of Shadow to God of War that much but cites Prince of Persia as LoS' competitor, yet the people at Ubisoft say Prince of Persia "lost players to God of War", and at the same time there's Titans in LoS, which are also in God of War.

I just hope they do their best to separate LoS from the pack more. Looking forward to what they show at E3.

Well we've seen a lot of werewolves so far so a Wolf Man boss is pretty much a given.

Cox hinted some time ago that Medusa would make a apperance.

Frakenstein is the scientist not The Creature, just throwing it out there.

Minotaur could make a apperance, the game already has a monster in the game that resemble's them.

Castlevania without Dracula is like Megaman without Wily, I fully expect Dracula to be in this.

The thing that separates the Titans in LOS from the titans in God of War 3 is that they are defeated without the aid of QTE's. While in God of War3 requires you to use QTE's to disembowel the titan's in gruesome(albiet awesome) ways.

Also, the "titans" in CLoS are seemingly just giant golems where as the "Titans" in GoW are elder gods.

I liked this new interview. I have start to thinking that it might be what we were waiting for a true Castlevania in 3D. Every bit of new info, it makes me to want to play it more and more. I hope, that it wiil not take to much, for the release of the DEMO of the game, so we can see for our selves how good is going to be!!!!! :)

Wooh nice! I don't know if you all noticed, but you can see Slogra's old sprite next to the concept art.

THIS is actually what I like. They are using the Slogra sprite as basis for the new Slogra. Who knows,  they might also get the classic stance down, which would be super tops in my book. It's these little nods that make me interested more and more. Had Cox and team basically said, "Fuck you, old fans! We're doing this completely from the ground up and straying COMPLETELY from Castlevania lore SOLEY to gain a new audience!", I'd be pissed. That doesn't look to be the case. I mean, LoS Slogra kinda looks MORE like the SCV4/SotN Slogra than IGA's CoD Slogra did. That's something I actually wanted to see MORE in 3D CV titles, turning the already cool sprite art into 3D models based on those designs.
