So I recently played through Castlevania lords of shadows, since I gout at discount price, but now that I finish it. I would have pay full price for this Masterpiece. Finally we get 3D Castlevania that does the series justice. To me it felt like when I played Metroid Prime for the first time, all the series landmarks there , rearranged , but all functional. The game however is not perfect, the main quarrels I hold with it, at least the first time through it, are: A) camera in combat has issues in some places and B ) the levels are fill with invisible walls, and sometimes it’s hard to tell where they are, but everything else is gold. You got your Ghouls, your werewolves, your vampires, and it can’t be a Castlevania without a castle. All of it done with incredible artistry (you also get the concept in the game). And the Ending, oh boy what an ending. I do have to say that I kinda saw it coming, but even so, it really shocked me when the revealed happen. You might not have enjoy, or like where that ending left you, but it did what it was intended to do, and that was to leave you talking about it. I highly recommend it.
Oh, and any game that plays homage to “Shadow of the Colossus” is ok in my book. BTW they also include a “Portal” reference in there, very funny.
also check out and old classic now in color when you vote. NSFW BTW
Brilliant ! I Loved both games and I thought the same thing when I played Castlevania, the moment with the Titan was epic ! The hero from Shadow of the Colossus must be jealous !
I played both games , I love them both but it amazed me how both story-lines and gameplay were sort of similar XD
anyway,great work
Lord of Shadows is KINDA like God of War + Shadow of the Colossus.
EPIC win.
Typical video game where you resurrect your girlfriend.
I LOVE CASTLEVANIA!
