I really enjoyed the Agharta section.  Also water clocks have been around in China since around 4000 BC.

Music wise I enjoyed the soundtrack's use of leitmotif to bring things together as a whole, although I would have loved a few more themes scattered throughout.  Also I was a little disappointed that the music at the start of the Necromancer's Abyss was only used once.  Hopefully it will return in the DLC.

Sincerely,

David

Water clocks are completely different from mechanical clocks, aren't they?
A water clock tower would be pretty clever though! No idea how it would but clever!

The infinite horrors of the deep sea combined with the spikes, medusa heads and tricky platforming of a Clock Tower stage? BRILLIANT!

It seems the finishing touches are being put on the DLC while last minute glitches are being removed.

David Cox:

The suspense is really starting to take it's toll on me. Also, I thought this was pretty funny.

I hope they don't forget to remove the glitch that deletes your save file after completion -_-

I hope we get a release date soon.

I wonder how much the DLC will be.

They did, but it shouldn't have been there to begin with. The patch was a bit too late for some people.

Yea I remember hearing about that, a lot of people lost their save halfway through the game and had to start over from scratch. It usually wouldn't upset people that much but considering how long LOS is....wow. I got it at midnight launch but luckily never encountered that glitch.

I encountered the a glitch a few times where it says "error code ####" or something like that. Never had my save deleted though.

The patch is obligatory and it was released one week after release, MS is one of the few developers being that quick with it, try to play New Vegas...

Only glitches I've ever encountered is certain enemies not appearing in the levels when I need them. One of the levels in chapter 2 always seems to glitch on me, you need a Warg to make it over the chasm, but sometimes it never appears, also shimmying across a wall, pressing down then having Gabriel automatically jump back up. It's pretty annoying.

I'm so glad I've never had any glitch problems, I'd be bummed out. Just out of curiosity, does this happen on a particular system?
What a horrible night to have a curse!

The patch for the game came out almost 1 month after release.....not 1 week. And an obligatory patch doesn't excuse the actual glitch. Developers should make sure this stuff is ironed out BEFORE they release the game.

From what I understand, both versions have had glitches too
