    I just watched this and am really excited for this game now.  All the voices are in Japanese but there are English subtitles.  I have always been a huge Castlevania fan and this just really made my day.
     
    Still no sign of Dracula anywhere in the trailer but we do get to see Death.  Also a little bit more story info is revealed.

    This is so awesome looking.  I might pre-order a game for the first time since RE5.  Can't wait for October 5th!

    Saw that this morning.  I prefer Patrick Stewart but the game seems packed with awesome.  So much to be hyped about out of E3.
     
    I think maybe the hand near the beginning with the long nails was Drac.

    I hope we get the Japanese voices too over here! Seems there will be a lot of story elements.

    While I'm all for multiple language options, would you really switch it to Japanese voices?
     
    Dude, Patrick Stewart.

    I don't wanna get too hyped and end up disappointed, but damn if this doesn't look amazing.

    Ah yeah I saw this before. I decided to only watch it once so as not to overly spoil myself on the game. 
     
    The Japanese voices seem pretty good, but after all those other trailers there's no way I'd want to go with them over the English ones, if they were included. 
     
    I hope and want this game to be awesome soooo bad!

    @TheFreeMan: I didn’t know Patrick Stewart was involved. Maybe play twice?

    There really hasnt been that much hype or anything about the game.  And it comes out in less than 2 weeks.  What gives,  I totally forgot this game existed, but then I saw the trailer, and I just had to pre-order it.  The game looks amazing.

    The severe lack of promotion for this game is kind of scary.  They hyped it up a big deal when it was first announced at E3 and they did a little more promotion to show off the voice cast some time back but other then that a whole lot of nothing from Konami.
