Immortal Goat | I am glad to find out that I am not the only one who liked the 64 Castlevanias. I dont know why I do, but i think it has to do with the fact that they are what started me on the Castlevania series. Posterity, rather than quality, you see? As for the GBA games, they are awesome, and the new 3D one looks awesome too. | ||

timrpgland | Resurrection looked like it had promise (starring Sonia mind you) but of course that project died. | ||

Rongi | Who's getting upset over anything? I'm just saying I like 2D CV better. Geez | ||

Zomboid | I don't see why everyone's saying the n64 cv games are horrible. They had camera problems but other than that it was just standard platform stuff. The story was good and the atmosphere was great so I'm just seeing a bunch of people upset that the series is changing. | ||

BLEH Hmm, well I also felt discourged about MGS2, Metroid Prime, and Wind Waker, those blew everyone away (except for that guy with the windwaker avatar ![]() Rongi: I knwo all 3d attempts at a castlevania game have failed miserably, and 2d castlevania will always go down in history, but I think this one shows some promise |

timrpgland | Well Legends and CV64 were both made so I don't care what anyone says, you can't just exclude them. Sonia is the oldest Belmont that we know about. | ||

Yeah, that did strike me as odd. But for a guy who has extensive knowledge and fascination with vampires, I feel as though Iga's got something he's not telling us. He even went as far as to not include the ever-present Clock Tower because they didn't exist until the 13th century. So you really have to wonder if this Dracula is... well, you know. THIS Dracula. |

i thought it might be fun for me to post in this thread, as i'm such a dangerous fanatic. o.o i'm sure the game itself will be fine. i am a little worried about the story for a few reasons. sonia was the first belmont to fight dracula because legends took place in a period where, actually only by a more conservative view, o.o dracula was still 'alive'. i mean. he was born sometime in the 1400's. legends is supposed to be in 1450-ish. even that is kind of a stretch. every other game took place after legends for that reason. but! as we all know. or at least me as i might be the only one here who cares, iga has completely ignored legends and cv64/lod from his official revised timeline. so with LOI, sonia no longer exists. sry. o.o LOI is supposed to take place in the 11th century, a good 400 years before dracula, the man, was born. if by some idiot timewarp or any sort of crap like that iga decides that dracula is going to be in this game, i personally won't be very happy about it. why? because that's stupid o.o the one weak lil tie this series has to reality may have had it's last gasp. o.o anyway. i personally won't make any judgment calls until more details are released. |

Zomboid | You say that, yet you've typed out of a hell of a lot to try and change people's minds and defend yourself. | ||

This is me doing the opposite of caring. ![]() |

I'm not the one who goes all defensive and acts like anyone not excited and ready to jizz all over the game is insulting it and calling it the worst game ever. You think it looks good, fine. We're not all going to though. Anyway, I'm looking forward to it but I don't think it will be "TOTALLY FUGGIN AWSUM D00D" or bad either. I liked the one(s) on 64 though, so take that any way you want. |

Ninjavenom | This will be incredibly wicked awesome and you all know it. You can quote me on this when it comes out. | ||

Yeah, that's not the pot calling the kettle black. ![]() Just because I'm willing to give this a chance, and put a little faith into it, that means I'm the one who is crying? You're the ones who are immediately sealing up it's coffin before you've even played the fucking thing, and going on about how much it's going to suck. |

Zomboid | Jamesman, you're acting like a little bitch. I felt it was my duty to inform you of this. | ||

Rongi | By the way, oh well educated one, how am I not educated by saying you can be happy about your shitty 3D game and the rest of us can be happy about our 2D CV game? Hmm? | ||

How about none of us know how it's going to be until it comes out, genius? I'd be content with a 2D CV on the PS2. I'd be content with 2D CVs for the rest of the series (given they're actually good). But am willing to give this game a chance, and am very interested in its release. You're just so set in your mind that things must stay the way they'd always been. I'm surprised you even like the GBA games, or Symphony, because they were so different from the NES-style CV games. It's another leap to greater things, and if you don't like it, go cry about it somewhere else. There's a reason why your nickname is Wrongi. |

Rongi | Whatever you say jamesypoo. You just don't want to admit it sucks because you desprately want a 3D CV so much and this is the only thing you can get your hands on at the moment. | ||

Rongi speaking as educated as ever. ![]() 3D isn't the death knell of CastleVania. CV64 was just a load of shit that was plagued with problems. That doesn't mean that a 3D CV is always going to be shit. And by what this guy has said, they've made sure - at great lengths - to make sure it isn't. Seriously, I'm more than willing to put a lot of hope into this project, after reading what they've done to make it an enjoyable game. It will do for CV what Symphony did for CV. And no, I don't mean it will spawn a handful of hack jobs on the GBA. |

Fine. You can be happy ( or unhappy ) with your shitty 3D CV and the rest of us can be happy with our 2D CV. |

Cap'n Crunch | I'll at least rent the new one. I mean, the series is good, and they say they fixed it from the last one. I will give it a shot, even though I didn't like the last 3D one. | ||

Meh, whatever. Anyway, the fact remains that this game shows a lot of promise, despite what some of you believe. I can't remember EGM ever giving a bad review to a game they published an article on (and no, it's not BECAUSE they had an article about it. EGM has the most acurate and honest reviews out of any magazine I've read). So I'm excited about this game, and really do expect it to be worth every penny. Besides, if you can like you shrunk-down versions of Symphony, I can like the blown-up one. |

What interests me the most are these little details about the story. The first Belmont?? Very interesting. Sonia is the oldest Belmont that we know about and that was 1465 when she was born, I can't wait to get more of the history. Plenty of early centuries left ![]() |
