CastlevaniaLOS Friday @gamelab might be interesting! Enric Alvarez will be showing some early design work on Castlevania: Lords of Shadow... SB perhaps :)
about 4 hours ago

Dave Cox's twitter. Somebody asked if SB is Simon Belmont. Hopefully that is true. And I guess game lab is some kind of game conference in Spain. I guess we'll find out Friday.

MS was approved to develop LoS after they presented to Konami a rendering of the opening of CV1 (Simon walking up to the castle gates) because they originally intended to remake CV1. I think that's what he's talking about. He said that they were showing early work on LoS, not the sequel.

never said they were showing a sequel, just excited to see the early work of the game.

They showed off Simon Belmont using Lords of Shadow’s engine. David Cox has stated (via Twitter) that there’ll be images and a video up soon. I’ll have those up ASAP at Relyonhorror.

@The_Ronfather - An early concept of Simon in engine was shown. I will try to get it released on our official Facebook page and via YouTube

He.....still looks remarkably like how Gabe ended up looking. Not blonde with a headband or anything resembling Simon the way we know him.

Gabe with different clothing.

Now we know where the lies and deception part of the trailer came from. Something much more Castlevania like.

The combat cross and what not seemed to be planned from the beginning though. Probably wouldn't have been much better either way.
