Yea... that's the one that usually gets me. I haven't played in a while but I think I managed to dodge that a couple of times.

As for LoS, new stuff is supposed to come tomorrow right?

On april fools? Sure!

lol

I talked to dave and he said sites should write previews about the game april 9th or 10th because the press get a private showing.

I hope they say something new about the game. Good things or bad things doesn't matter, I just wanna read something that we don't already know. I'm absolutely contradicting myself now since I said earlier that I didn't want to know anything more before I play the actual game. Looks like I've changed my mind  ;D

So I tweeted the guy who is editing trailers for lords of shadow..

1. he said theirs an amazing amount of detail...


and this--- When asked, if only we could see gameplay of the updated build...

@danorganplayer I have it on good authority that u will in the coming weeks. I might be biased, but I'm pretty sure u won't be disappointed.     about 9 hours ago   via web  in reply to danorganplayer

I look forward to new info, too. However, I'm gonna do myself a favor and stay pessimistic about it for now.
What I am allowing myself to get, probably ill advisedly, hyped for is "Metroid: Other M".
"Stuff and things."

I don't blame you. Metroid: Other M, the recent trailer, looks BEAUTIFUL. If they pull it off correctly, it could merge the best things of the classic series and the Metroid Prime series. It already looks like a cross between Super Metroid and Prime, with some cool wrestling events with boss enemies.

Back on topic, I really hope the trailer editor's right. Can't wait to see an updated build trailer for LoS!!

You guys... I had a dream i was checking this site for updates. But in the dream there was no "I knew it!  Castlevania: Lords of Shadow!!!" topic and i was upset. This is getting pathetic.
Go. Set Forth! Both your own life and hers are at stake.

Someone needs to ask Cox if LEGION will make an appearance.

Legion would be awesome, but possibly difficult to pull off in 3D..

What am I on? Legion would not be difficult to pull off in 3D - this is 2010, not 1996. I sometimes forget that. :-[

They already tried Legion in Curse of Darkness, but unfortunately it was terribly executed. I thought the fight was reminiscent of stereotypical MMO combat (boring).

Though I'm sure Cox's team would do better. A hell of a lot better, even.

Nucluais was alright though.

A wild Ralph appears.
Wild Ralph uses Teleport.

Yeah, that's actually the reason why I think the Legion fight is hard to execute in a 3D game, but at the same time, CoD is running on inferior hardware, so I have faith. And yes, Mercury Steam should do much better!

I wouldn't expect legion. He's a big fan of the Old castlevania's, I expect older enemies from the series. Slogra ( obviously), Medusa, Giant bat like creature, the titans..etc

Yeah, probably. Though I'm sure he's studied some of the later CVs too, for inspiration. Legion is such an epic boss creature, it deserves to be in the game. But I guess the chances are very slim.

A legion done right would be awesome, but I'd much prefer something else on the sheer fact that IGA's reuse of Legion seemed to mark overkill for that boss.

Ot would be nice if he had a fan selection poll for bosses. I would personaly love to see a boss version of the "Xing Tian".
