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

[Ahasverus]

Espectacular pacing, graphics and boss battle... this is getting almost perfect for my tastes! 

[Thunderbrand]

You know I just had a thought.

What if the castle we've seen isn't the real castle? What if there's more? I feel like we haven't even seen half the game yet.

Pretty sure there is more than 1 castle. I think that was even confirmed somewhere.

They got rid of the glowing ledges! YES!

Wow... just.. wow!
I have a feeling I'm gonna love this game. Poor little birdie though 

HOWEVER; I sometimes feel that 3D action games today have enemies with far too much health. Every enemy turns into a mini boss battle. Though I can't think of any other way to do it... One-hit-kills are classic Castlevania stuff, but this is 2010 so I guess I'll just have to accept it.

Anyway, the level design is among the best and most varied I've seen on this generation of consoles. It basically looks (dare I say it?) PERFECT.

The story so far: Ezio Auditore finally got the glove of the Prince of Persia and is trained by Juan Sánchez Villa-Lobos Ramírez. He embarks in the Dante's inferno where he meets a female version of the Coppola's Dracula that wants to play chess with death. During his travel he has to face Baba Yaga, Goliath from Disney's Gargoyles and a My little Pony. In the end he aquires Majora's Mask and after a travel with Gwaihir he can finally face the Shadow of Colossus.

I love this quote, it's awesome.

I think you can probably disable the glowing edges, the TimedEvent text "Help" messages, and other stuff, in the options.
I'm saying this because I'd probably wanna see the edges, but I know that once I've gone through the game, I won't wanna.

Sort of the "Help" that you can disable, in Metroid Prime, etc.

I'm not gonna watch anymore gameplay videos, including that one. The game is a little more than 2 weeks away, don't wanna get spoiled too much!

I hear you. I kinda regret watching all those videos  THough not really cause they were fab! But still, I think I'm gonna stay away from this thread now, not talking about the game, not thinking about it, not google it... I just want to play it NAOW!

I like the last one. Actually, I like them all.

I've noticed that the circle mechanic is associated exclusively with grab & latch moves.
This might explain why some enemies like the swordmasters are taken out without the circle if the finishing moves don't use a grab or whip.

Also, the earlier remarks about the game being touted as a 'dark' tale but having so many bright environments... well, a tale being dark has nothing to do with the environments and all to do with the mood and tone of the story. And I don't know about you guys but if I were stuck climbing a tower with blood-thirsty goblins and a giant, naked, troll thing I'd be shitting bricks.

I'm actually starting to like the environments. at least the first one.

[Dremn]

They got rid of the glowing ledges! YES!

I noticed that! Maybe you can switch the hints on and off?

Yeah, those were posted about six pages ago.

I'm still pretty amazed with how rich and detailed the environments seem to be. It's a pretty reassuring feeling. Good to see a lot of time and money being spent on this one.
