Eh, I would say Castlevania can swing in both ways.

awesome pun XD

[Lumas]

I read somewhere that this Castlevania's "Ultimate universe"

I encourage you too put effort into your punctuation.  It's the civilized thing to do.
You don't have to... it's just cool points for you if you do.

(Whispering)  My mother warned me about angry Catholic Angels coming to get the boys and girls who did not use proper punctuation....

Oh yea where's that demo Ive been hearing so much about?

[Dremn]

I would like to know the same thing, the demo still isn't up on XBLA.

Nice tag OSM

[Ahasverus]

Let's savor this moment shall we?

Apparently Konami lied to us. Again.

Cox said it would be out a week before release. Today is Tuesday.


@Ahasverus: what are you trying to prove by posting all review scores you can find? We know the game is gonna be good already. I don't think any1 here needs a reviewer to tell them that..

There are many "revenge" reasons I should note... But of course that's not my intention that's just foolish (however I feel a bit of relief each time a good score is ghiven because I've put too much faith in this game and some of you remained so eskeptical, many times I thought I was wrong, i wasn't )
However, what's the bad vibe about the scores? I mean, this  is a LOS board and the last time I checked the internet, review scores were vital to the release of a game so that's not bad.

And a 90 metascore is a DREAM come true, even if it's only for a moment... I imagine you just don't realise how important is that to the SAGA.

Hmm....Agreed.

In defense of Ahasverus a lot of people doubted the potential this game had so i cant say I blame him for posting every single score since he, myself and a few others have been rooting for this game from the start plus I like being able to get on here to see all the scores as opposed going to all the sites.

Gamespot revew is in, it's kinda low.

When true fans of the series come up with that kind of stuff (in defense), its a way of saying "finally."

I'm a bit of an old schooler, so I am a bit partial to the entire series on all the home platforms.  I thought LoI and CoD were great for the series, but many many other would say that its arguable.  IF one never had experiences before this period, like SotN, it might be hard to get wrapped up.  IF you go further back, newer generations have not had the same opportunities with CV-CVIII.  Maybe some people stumbled on N64's (crap) game, and never picked it back up ever again.

A lofty score given by a newer group of gamers has some weight and luster.  For some of us that have been around, this could be very good, or very bad.  In any case, whatever CV has in store, gameplay has to be tight, visually its obviously a charm, and the story has to have soemthing to it.  This is what attracts new crowds.  I just hope it doesn't get too far outside the "universe" with its "reboot."

lol!

I don't think you care about the SAGA after you said this

The last thing we want to think about now is Droltza Tzuentez and his non-sensical role into the nonsensical plot of the old saga, really, who cares now?

@Crisis: You know it's pretty silly posting my very silly post right? i apologized, I explained myself, so, what's your point? get cool man

Hey guys, let's talk about happier things this is a castlevania celebration!
---Just like th one Dave us having right now with the guys... heheh

What will you do when you get the game? Play it? loot at it with fear of playing it? Store it in the shelve for 2 weeks? (That's me, I can't play it until my 360 is back home, and I'll get the game in launch date ) I just'c can't imagine that moment, the excitement! I'll post pics of myself playing the game for first time that's sure.
So, what are you going to do? In my case, I already have a "party" with my 5 closest friends, we'll get together in my room (very large one I must say) buy some ships and (almost healty ) food and soda and perhaps some beer, rum is coming later in the night heh, so we're getting together to play (or in their case, watch me while I'm doing it heheh it's a joke I'll let them -but not too much >.<) and have a good time, i'll turn my stereo very high! (I have it connected to my LCD ) So the game's release is kind of a social event in my case and I'm very anxious! ^^

Edit: Very sad about the Gamespot review Loss of identity oh geat, they gave the review to an Alucard fan,,,
