Topic: Exclusive: Konami confirms Castlevania 25th anniversary project

[DragonSlayr81]

A lot of staff of Konami have already left the office. And, Konami doesn't reveal a former employee. IGA did not open founder's staff's name to the public.

All interviews will become IGA.
XD

Besides, I doubt gaming development is as "open" as movie development. You get a lto of behind-the-scenes footage documentaries for movies because a sometimes the director or producer brings their camcorders along to document the creation process, and those are vaulted, then brought out whenever they choose to do a doc, though, with DVD/Blu-Ray extra features, it's become more a normal thing(they usually shoot behind-the-sceens footage solely for the dvd/blu-ray releases). Games, I can't imagine a staff member running around with a camcorder as people are programming and such. ESPECIALLY in Japan.

I guess he just means they're current-gen. Next-gen is such an awful buzzword anyway.

True it may not be next gen anymore but it certainly is not out of date by any means.

Like I said those 2 will not be "out of date" until their newer counterparts (Xbox720 and PS4) are released.

1) Yeah, why they don't release a new Castlevania for me to play in my SNES or my Mega Drive? =/

2) Yeah, I know you're not complaining. Doesn't change what I said.

*sigh*

I'm not arguing with this anymore, since you don't quite seem to get it. -_-

Not even then. It's like how the PS2 wasn't out of date til all the game companies stopped making games for it, and moved on to higher consoles.

I think PS2 is a exception obviously.

Considering it was voted as best gaming system and the fact that it had alot of 3rd party support.

Thats why It was able to last so long after the release of the PS3 and other next gen consoles due to its sheer popularity.

But the Xbox and Gamecube for instance did not get the same treatment and thus became "outdated".

You forgot the fact that the SNES and MegaDrive were dead for a long time ago, whereas The DS and PSP are still alive.

Name 2 worth while games each for the PSP and DS in the last 6 months.

So, in other word you mean the DS and PSP were already dead?

Xbox had the potential to be as popular as the PS2, but Microsoft was all retarded about it and cut it off.

Gamecube had better graphical capabilities than the other two (Resident Evil 4 was proof). Sadly, disk space was scarce in comparison. I'm guessing it didn't have enough 3rd party support?

PSP: Sengoku Basara Chronicle Heroes and BlazBlue Continuum Shift II (I believe the ladder was within 6 months. Correct me if wrong)
DS: Shin Megami Tensei Devil Survivor 2 and er... Well, I'm stumped here. >.>

Okamiden.

[Claimh Solais]

Did Okamiden come out within the last 6 months?

[Pemburu Vampir]

It did, in north America.

[uzo]

BlazBlue Continuum Shift II

I don't believe I can accept that one. Not only is it a port, but a pretty shoddy one at that. It does have loads of content, but the gameplay is laggy, choppy, and performs substandard to a game of any expectation. Not only that, the controller options are down right ridiculous. They wont even let you use the Analog EVEN ON THE 3DS VERSION. No circle pad what so ever.

Sengoku Basara Chronicle Heroes

Haven't played it. No clue.

Shin Megami Tensei Devil Survivor 2

Not really a fan of FATLUS games. May or may not count depending on how straight you are.

Then again, is it even out? Wiki tells me it was announced in March 2011. (note we are sticking to ONE regional release zone here)

Okamiden.

Yeah, that actually makes the 6 month mark for the USA release.

[Claimh Solais]

BlazBlue: I haven't played the original console version, so I wouldn't know. I liked the PSP one.

Sengoku Basara: It's worth it.

Devil Survivor 2: You never said where. Now that you did, looks like I gotta find something else. >.> Guess this applies to the one above then.

[Pemburu Vampir]

How about Dragon Ball Kai: Ultimate Butouden for the DS. It's in Japan only though.

Aren't you guys kind of getting a little off topic now
