That's exactly my point, thernz-chan. If Castlevania HD costs that much then what makes anyone think Konami will make the DLC for LoS any cheaper?

10 bucks, are you kidding? Harmony of Despair costs more than that.
Why should a dlc pack that's probably not going to be more than a few hours be more expensive than a full game?

Whoops, my math was off.  Anyway, it really depends on how much content is in it.  Unless its a full blown expansion pack it's not going to be $20.

Hmm, according to Cox's twitter, Gabriel will be returning to the castle and Laura will be making a comeback appearance.  I have a feeling that the DLC will be massive, I hope so anyway.
That's pretty awesome, looking forward to it.

Well I hope you're right RZA, I don't wanna pay more than $15 but Konami calls the shots so who knows.

Well DLC is rarely ever more than 1200 mspoints unless its something sustantial like GTAIV episodes. Unfortunately 1200 is a common price regardless of quality, when 560 and 800 should have been used.

That Satvara guy mentioned earlier is really pumping out the level exploits. This one right here really made me do a double-take:

Interesting discussions at Gamingage forums. Those hardasses are loving the game too, well not ALL of them, but they are a tough crowd usually:

That's the Solid Snake music "Encounter" (I think) from Metal Gear Solid. ;)
It's also in Smash Bros. Brawl in the Shadow Moses stage.

Got the game (at Chapter VII) and having played it, it all feels a bit average.  Bit of a let down, tbh.  I’ve given it the benefit of the doubt since the start, but bad framerate issues, an almost insufferably slow-moving storyline (and Patrick Stewart just about repeats the same thing every chapter start), BGM found wanting, non-user-friendly magic system (although it has grown on me), invisible walls, dodgy camera moments, some unintuitive controls, argh.  After playing Bayonetta it feels like wading through treacle.

But it’s too easy to be critical.  It’s had its share of good levels thus far, some of the puzzles are quite entertaining if not groundbreaking.  The artwork and design is top notch, breath-taking locales and scenery.  There is lots of platforming, it does feel very Tomb Raider in places to me.
