Seems the CE is legit, but like an above post said, they just stole Konami's thunder. Then they sent in Cox to try and say there is no CE in the works. Bull lol  :D

I'm not gonna pre-order anything until I see a firm, final release date though.
*I'm not a newbie...I had several hundred posts with this screenname on the old board*

well I'm going today to switch my preorder to the Limited Edition. I'm sure if its on gamestop then its real. I doubt they would have something like that up there without knowing its real
What a horrible night to have a curse!

Now I don't know what to think... I hope it's real.

It's real. Companies have to get together with retailers ahead of time with such things for allocation and pricing purposes, (as well as deals and promotions a company like Gamestop can and can not use with it) that way companies won't over sale what they intend to get with collectors items. That's why (at times) Gamestop will completely pull reserves for games, more so limited editions a full month or so before it actually comes out. (WoW is known for having the issue.)

Apparently, it is real, and it's supposedly going to be released on October 19th. I hope it's not an Xbox 360 exclusive.

Sweet! Definitely preordering it! Those achievements aren't too shabby either, lots of good things to be excited about lately. This game comes out 2 days after my birthday too! Lucky me!

I just got back from Gamestop and switched my preorder to the Limited Edition for the PS3, so I am super happy now!

Also, the PS3 version is on the website but you have to search for "Lords of Shadow" it doesn't show if you just type castelvania

Probably cause they spelled it "Castlevia".

I have to say, I feel sorry for anyone who gets the 360 version of this game. Not only does 2 discs suck but that green on the case and cd's just makes it look ugly!

I don't understand this at all. You can play it off of one disc, like the ps3... so why does it matter? Aw, did I just ruin your parade?

As for the green case, I like green, so it's a plus for me.

No need to be a total dick. I just think its more convenient on one disc and the green is way too bright and I think it takes away from the image. I'm not on some anti-360 crusade, I just think that package sucks in design

I dont' know... from what I quoted, it sounded like you were being a pricky lil fanboy, I just responded in kind. Was I mistaken?

Yes, you are very mistaken, I'm not a "pricky lil fanboy", but from your response you sound like an xbox fanboy. Again, no need to be a total dick. I was simply stating my opinion on the 360s package
