Topic: I knew it! Castlevania: Lords of Shadow!(SPOILERS HERE, PLZ USE THE SPOILER TAG)

[Reinhart77]

i'm at the "forget everything you think you know about Castlevania" point right now.  i'm not expecting there to be a Belmont Clan that destroys Dracula time after time again and I'm not expecting Dracula to become this heinous tyrant with genocidal ambitions.  but there's only 1000 years between the game and the epilogue.  i just don't know if anything happened in those years other than Gabe becoming Dracula, becoming disgusted with himself, and going into hiding.

Maybe the two DLC will make the game canon after all? Let's wait and see.

No point in trying to put this game in canon, as Cox himself don't want it to be part of the series canon. Just stop wanting that guys, please. =/

Not to mention that while chronologically, there is room for it in the IGAverse, it still doesnt make SENSE. Because LoI already established the beginning of the Castlevania universe. The Belmont clan going from Crusade knights to Monster hunters, And Dracula coming to be.

I wonder what kinds of areas are going to be in the DLC.  Let's see.  The first DLC takes place in the castle so what kinds of places of a castle haven't we been to yet.  I guess there could be a library, a chapel, a dungeon, etc.  I guess we will just have to wait and see.  It's coming soon, but I'm getting really impatient.

Zobek is Gabriel's father. *Imperial March plays*

You know, before fighting Satan, Zobek DOES have a line that is almost verbatim a ripoff of "Search your feelings, you know it to be true."

And as it was obviously going to be, Castlevania Lords of Shadow wins the IFMCA award for Best Score for a Video Game or Interactive Media.

That award had CV's name since the beggining

Congrats to Mr. Araujo! Anybody else irked that they said 'Kojima Productions’ CASTLEVANIA: LORDS OF SHADOW, with music by Óscar Araujo, wins Best Score for a Video Game or Interactive Media.' I mean, KojiPro had so little to do with the game. It's kinda sad to give them the credit.

I dunno. I kinda felt like yelling "KOJIMAAAAAA!" after the post-credits thingy; I'd be extremely surprised if it wasn't his idea.

They gave the money, I think Konam's budget was as silly as IGA's. We should thank Kojima for the extra bucks

Congrats to Oscar Araujo! That's awesome to see that CV music has finally some award!

David Cox's flying to GDC. Maybe we'll get more info about the DLCs during this event?

I was thinking the same thing, GDC looks like a good moment to make the official announcement... Geez... this DLC is taking so long...

I am not expecting anything for the sequel for a long time, at least until next year.
