I keep smiling at all the 2D parts, it really does look great. I wonder if an entire game like that would work?
Absolutely, and they could add LOS' dept effect to the combat to make it more interesting  :)

Doesn't Other M do something like that, a merger of different styles.

Jumbo sized special edition cover.  I like the artwork of gabriel but it would've been nice if the background was drawn as well instead of the same rendered picture of the castle as the standard edition.

That box alone is worth 20 extra dollars

I agree. Blue color is a wonderful change for the series !

Anybody see this one yet?

More 2.5D action!!

Also, 45 types of monsters in this game. Hopefully they are all unique(and not the dreaded palette swaps that were riddled throughout IGA's 3D CVs).

I hope you're being sarcastic.

And that's not all, the review codes have already been sent out. :D

Here's hoping that Konami promotes the hell out of this game. Im talking movie thearters, billboards, magazines, write it in the sky if you must, just let the masses know that this game is coming!

The game already has a Hollywood score, so that shouldn't be a problem. I bet Patrick Stewart will narrate the commercial(s), too.

They're promoting it on that Gamestop TV. Looked awsome.

I was suppose to say something profound here. I don't 'do' profound so much as ramble so...whatever. Here lies text. Congratulations for reading it.  You were as bored as I am. Seriously, stop reading, you can't be that bored.  Still here? Really?  You officially are my new favorite person and now are owed one internet cookie. Don't eat it though, it gives you bad gas.

Awesome, I hope we start getting a steady stream of new info until October, but not TOO much. I don't want the game spoiled ahead of time.

Apperently a Finnish magazine did a preview of the game and made fun of the goblins, and how mercury steam was borrowing so much stuff from other games and not doing it well. Also how the post-stage "here's what you missed" counter is a weak design decision. Guess that's refreshing to hear for a change.  :)
