Anything else you could share that wouldn't particularly be considered heavy spoilers?

Surely.

- LOTS of platforming and rapelling, shimmying, swinging, etc.
- Pretty interesting story about the Combat Cross and a tie-in with LoI.
- The Castle is friggin' massive.
- You will need to actually use strategy and think when fighting. It certainly dosen't seem to be a button-mashing splatterfest like other games have been
- Some posters here have been right about certain characters, most posters have been wrong though. Even I admit to making some wrong assumptions/speculation about people & places.

It sure is great-looking! As you'd expect there are a million screenshots in the Guide and I can tell you that each location/level is simply GORGEOUS. Many levels are also very ominous and eerie, so it will definately have a CV look to it. Atmosphere should not be an issue folks  8)

***Just bumping up what I said at the end of page 348...I have the Guide in front of me so I will post any spoilers on whatever people want (with SPOILER WARNINGS) of course for those who don't want to know. I will post them in the thread or you can send me a PM***

I'll be happy to answer any general or semi-spoilerish questions here...but all the MAJOR ones have been moved to the other thread.

-No you don't. At least according to the guide, there is no interaction or fight with Slogra. But we've seen the artwork and spotted his corpse in the trailer, so maybe he will be part of the DLC for the game.

It's legit, he got it from a mom and pop store in Newark NJ and others on Gamefaqs confirmed them selling it.

Ha!  I know what store it is.
When I went to NJIT, I would ALWAYS get my games from that dude.  He'd break the rules and put 'em up a week early.
Now I'm too lazy to trek to Newark, so I'll just wait until it comes to me in the Mail...
