Video Game Awards: Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 Teaser
Check out the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 teaser and tune in to the VGAs to see the World Premiere, Friday, December 7 9/8c on Spike and Spike.com.
(Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, PS3, Xbox 360)
Really, the first teaser to get us excited for the VGAs is this...I would of started with the biggest game thats going to be there. Remember the Last of Us las year, people were going bat s*** crazy over that
I can understand not liking Lords of Shadow, but I'll be damned if it isn't one of the most under-appreciated titles of this generation. It was frustrating in parts, no doubt about it, but it had so much ambition for a game that was just dismissed as a God of War knock-off. Unfair treatment.
Shit teaser, but I can't wait until Lords of Shadows 2 is completely revealed. I bought the first one out of curiosity for like $20, and I was really impressed but the action, locations, and twist at the end. The announcement trailer was AWESOME so I expect the full reveal to blow my mind.
I have to say I thought the first DS Castlevania was great. I personally always enjoyed the metroidvania style.
You are right though, LoS was a phenomenal reboot. I love the Pan's Labyrinth Spanish mythology that the developers brought to the series. Also, it's one of the best looking games I have ever played. From start to end, it was incredible and a 17-25hour 1st time playthrough pending difficulty.
Yes, the first DS game was very good, the first one to properly revive the SOTN spirit (edit: actually, it was its prequel on GBA who did that). Sadly every game after that was worst in one sense or another.
Igarashi's formula was good but Iga himself was not able to make it evolve.
The ending in the first Castlevania LoS was wthout a doubt the best ending I have seen in a video game. A very very very overlooked game and such a fascinating game. And I hear the sequel will have much more exploration and less linear. I cannot wait.
i wonder if any of the other belmonts are in the game. i think trevor belmont, alcard,grant and that mage which i can't remember her name would be the group that puts him to rest until simon belmont is born. I can't wait regardless.
I can't wait. LoS was one of my favorite games to come out in the last few years. Hoping for even more exploration and character growth to match the fantastic scale and story.
The metroidvania formula was stale and the 3d attempts were nothing but a joke.

LoS2 is also one of my most anticipated games of next year.
