Wasn't there a tweet from Cox a while back saying that he doesn't foresee any Resurrection delays? As far as we know, it's still right on track for April. Still, a delay is always possible.

Yeah, but he could be speaking from a production standpoint. I honestly wouldn't blame Konami if they wanted to delay its release to space the downloads out a bit.
It's like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, but instead it's Who Wants Fried Chicken? I do.

Time travel seems to be an ongoing theme. And "Curse of Darkness" had me scratching my head after awhile.
So the Belmont becomes the "Dark Knight" well that has a nice ring to it.
Curious though how the "Vampire Killer" repeals the yin / yang symbolism territory we could be getting into.

"ARAUJO is already working on the score for the sequel, and given the amazing quality of work he’s displayed here, it’s surely just the first of many more great things we can expect from him."

OMG LOL

No... NOOOOOOOO!

(If Cox wants to know what a good orchestrated game soundtrack sounds like, he should look at the soundtrack Joe Hisaishi just finished for Ni no Kuni.)

The dream reveals the reality, which conception lags behind. That is the horror of life - the terror of art.

I liked it. Loved it in fact. But I admit that it was a bit repetitive.

Ok.  Let me say this and get it over with.  Lords of Shadow's music is a microcosm of what's wrong with Coxelvania --it IS excellent music, but it is NOT excellent Castlevania music.  There only track that truly felt like the moody Castlevanias of yesteryear is this...

Castlevania Lords of Shadow Music - Belmont's Theme

honorable mention --very for good battle music, but is it Castlevania?

Vampire Battle: Castlevania Lords of Shadow

And now the epic piece, but again -is it Castlevania?

Or any Stravinsky, or Bach, or Debussy... I'd be satisfied if he just made area-specific themes. I was sick to death of the goddamn trailer music, especially so when it's at the final boss battle.
