E3 2009 Castlevania: Lords of Shadow Announced


Hideo Kojima, the japanese mastermind that never rests. He finally does something else than Metal Gear Solid. Did you know that he's not only a creative director to many Konami games but also one of the Konami bosses? He took himself the liberty to "reboot" one of the most famous Konami and video game series: Castlevania.
I am not sure what to think of this. Have a look at the trailer: It's a 3D action game and looks much like Devil May Cry. Also the iconic Castlevania music is missing. There are too many games in this style... I somehow doubt that this game will make an big impact. On the other hand Kojima Productions is known for high quality gaming and the story sounds interesting. Personally I'd liked an HD platformer in the style of Symphony of the Night, but that's just me.
Right now we can't do more than wait.
