Giant bomb i would love for you guys too do a quick look of this...PLEASSSSSSSSE!!!! ....Thank you that is all!!!
 
p.s. make sure you play the ps3 version as there is no frame rate / slow down issues that are plaguing the 360 version....

I'm sure we'll get one eventually. 

Yeah I just came to this site to check if they had a review up for it. Gamespot is giving it a 7.5 but I trust them as much as I trust the drug dealer from the corner.

I would like to see some of this bad puzzle/platforming I keep hearing about, all the trailers and shit show is the fighting (which looks fine I guess) but if everyone's deducting shit because of these other elements, someone should bother to show them.

Whats the point? People have already made their minds up based upon absolutely no personal experience. It'll be like LP2 all over again. Fuck that..just download the EU demo and make your own mind up about it.

So no quick look because people made up their mind (not sure how that's relevant, QL's aren't marketing tools or reviews), then they play a demo and make up their own mind? Did you just have a stroke? "

" Its jerico hack n slash with stickers of kojima and castlevania all over it ,this is a gamethat is best forgotten. And  i'm so gladits getting negative reviews and no coverage i hope it sells like shit. "

It was a tough choice between Dead Rising 2 and this for Tuesday's purchase. Then the quick look and everyone confirming that Dead Rising is still shit cinched it for Castlevania. 
 
So uh, yeah, bring on more Castlevania coverage.

Well honestly, what can you do to make castlevania 3d and not end up copying god of war, devil may cry, shadow of collosus or any of those... honestly its a game where you kill stuff level up and find stuff...and have a story...
 
to put those in 3d and have it be realistic and dark this is the path that would be taken... if you played darksiders its also a copy of god of war - legend of zelda and other games but damn if it wasn't a blast to play, it was always fun and had a wicked good story for what it was... 
  
the ign review is terrible , first he is a bias castlevania fan boy, which is ok however it effects the review, he says its a blast to play but it doesnt feel like castlevania... So does that mean if it wasn't called castlevania it would get a higher score?
 
 Well its 3d now its a fresh coat of paint on a next gen castlevania a reboot so to speak, its not supposed to be like the old 2d games... 
 
their are alot of positive reviews - the gamespot/ign 7.5 lower reviews ( i guess they didnt get paid enough to give it a higher review)  however its 89 percent on metacritic at the moment.... alot of good positive reviews out there... you either are gonna love it or hate it....people who are castlevania fanatics are gonna bitch and moan since its not EXACTLY like their castlevanias they are used too, god forbid if their is one change everyone FREAKS OUT....
 
im all about a game that 8 hours in you haven't even scratched the story , its not gonna be a short 6-8 hour game you can rush through.... and if the game has a great story im all about it!
 
i honestly am very excited for this game, i knew from the trailers and all the announcement's it was not gonna be your typical castlevania game...  it looks like a clone of other games, so what if its fun and it puts a smile on my face then im all about it....

" eww no , go play some real castlevania not this devil make us wanna cry  clone "

WOW  , he sums it up perfectly and that is what i am talking about...this is why i prefer reviews from giant bomb, or the smaller sites cause their not forced to write negative crap if the company does not pay them and lie and make things positive and raise the score if they are paid....a review should be about opinion if the game sucks then the game sucks, like gerstmans fiasco with kane and lynch and gamespot  it shows how bad the big sites have gotten....
 

Yeah I'd love to see a quick look of this one too.

" Its jerico hack n slash with stickers of kojima and castlevania all over it ,this is a gamethat is best forgotten. And  i'm so gladits getting negative reviews and no coverage i hope it sells like shit. "

" Here's the thing.  Castlevania existed before Symphony of the Night, and there is a key difference in the fanbase. There are those of us who were there, boots on the ground, for the beginning. Then there are those who showed up around SotN and didn't know any better.  The Metroidvania games aren't bad, per se, but they aren't real Castlevania games to me. They always felt like Metroid mods. The thing is, IGA has had a terrible iron grip on the franchise since SotN, and now that his style of gameplay is passe and quite frankly considered dull, he has slowly but surely been phased out of the Castlevania franchise. Good. Let Mercurysteam have a crack at it, and if they can make this game as good or better than Lament of Innocence (the first true Castlevania game since Super IV/Bloodlines, in my opinion), then I'll be throwing up celebratory horns.   So uh, yeah. If you like the Metroidvania games, just keep buying IGA's rehashes for the handhelds.   As a side note: It's About Goddamn Time that Castlevania centered around a Belmont again. Seriously, guys, nobody kicks it like a Belmont kicks it. "

" eww no , go play some real castlevania not this devil make us wanna cry  clone "

 @delusionaltool: Umm.. Castlevania Lament of innocence wasn't a GoW or Zelda clone, and I liked it. But I seem to be in the minority here..
 
 @KingWilly:  Yeah, I don't like the NES era Castlevania. Not enough Metroidvania type games. I love those!
I have enough GoW type games to last me a lifetime. Or at least couple of years.
 
 @Enigma777:  Well.. it wasn't good cause they re-used all the sprites and made it multiplayer.
They re-used the old DS and PSX sprites for a HD Xbox360 game, and made a game about exploration multiplayer! Who.. Who thought this was a good idea?

1UP's review of the game elaborates on the platforming problems within the game if anyone is interested. It's a very positive review otherwise.. 

Every time I see a new video of this game I get more and more excited.

I tried the demo, and it seems like a good game. Really the only thing i didn't like was that it didn't seem to be any weight in the attacks, didn't really feel like i hit the enemies.
