Looks like the strategy guide will be out a week before the game, so any speculation on characters/enemies/locations/spoilers, etc. will be revealed then.

Grrr...  Why do they always do that?

Oh man, that's really terrible.

Looks like I'll be seeking refuge in the non spoilers thread for a few weeks. :[

Looks like Cox's posts are gone.  ?  Anyone grab that hi-res pic of the cover art that he posted?

That account was actually IGA trying to sabotage Cox, but Cox struck back. You see, wherever that image is saved, it will transmit the Dracula virus IGA created, only to be defeated by the Belmonts in the distant future. IGA has already alluded to this in an interview from long ago. But now that our memories of it have faded, IGA has made his move. And what better way than to strike at his dearest rival as well?

OMG  :o

It's beautiful. I can't wait October  :-[

Too bad the artbook won't be, perhaps, in EU Limited Edition  :'(

Yeah, it's also partly because enemies in modern 3D action games have too much health.

Definitely. I recently played through Darksiders and was reminded of this. Some of the tougher enemies are a complete chore to finish in games like this.
It's like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, but instead it's Who Wants Fried Chicken? I do.

Cool little detail that's managed to be overlooked for months. Skip to 0:47:

Conferencia sobre Castlevania (3 de 4)

The Clock Tower is referred to as "Another mad invention of Frankenstein". Wouldn't be surprised to see the Creature show up in this game.

It's been aluded to that there is more than 1 castle in the game. I just hope that THE castle really feels like THE castle if you know what I mean. The castle on the box art, and the 4 inter-connected ones we've seen in the trailers look cool, but they almost seem more cathedral-like than CV-like. For example we haven't seen THE stairway---I hope it's there  8)
*I'm not a newbie...I had several hundred posts with this screenname on the old board*

Some of the music reminds me of Van Helsing's score.
Some of it sounds like heavily orchestrated SCV4 music.
These are not bad things.

It'll prolly be better to not have any certain expectations for it.. it's gonna be totally different than anything we've experienced before

LOL, as long as it feel MORE like THE castle than CoD's final CASTLE, that's all I want. If it's anything LIKE the pictures seen of the castle-like environments(which could very well be different castles in the game, but the LOOK), that's all I want.
