    @Eujin: Just saw a pretty cool CG trailer for Lords 2 for console. Pretty sure Alucard is the playable character but I hope it is Dracula/Gabe.

    @Soapy86: Why can't you play Lords of Shadow?

    GameTrailers TV showed two Konami trailers, but nothing specifically of the press conference.

    @Deusx: Spike TV is showing a bunch of trailers. Rising and Lords of Shadow 2 are the only Konami ones though. They said the actual conference in 5 minutes will show more of Rising amongst more Konami stuff.

    Gametrailers.com should have it in 5 minutes from now. The Spike TV/GameTrailers TV thing only showed "Select excerpts"

    Ohh, what my Castlevania has become. It looks awesome!

    I remember a long time ago not being so hot on the idea of a reboot to good old CV but I learned to accept it because it wasn't horrible like...other reboots....

    So is that really Alucard in the trailer ? If it is, I think my head just exploded....

    @TentPole: I tried the demo, and Lords of Shadow, for whatever reason, has the distinction of being the one and only game to ever make me feel motion sick.

    @kogasu: The producer has teased Alucard before and he looked just like him so I am going to assume it is indeed Alucard.

    To the right of "Konami Press Conference", we can read this on G4: "6/1/12 at 3:00PM ET / 12:00PM PT| On G4TV.com"

    So... it's still more than 12 hours off?

    Ok, so far, Konami really needs to get in touch with Vinny and Drew with how to make cool looking green screen based video. Because this looks silly.

    Hey guys... Facebook, right? I mean, when I think Konami, I immediately think casual Facebook gaming....

    I wish Konami knew why we loved their old press conferences so much. This is way too slick. I WANT AWKWARDNESS AND TAK FUJI.

    It shows how Gabriel becomes a vampire, and how he kind of got off the holy path. Ends with a pretty cool fight. Shows what happens to the Combat Cross. It doesn't revisit modern day, however. David Cox, the producer, said that was a hint of things to come, and seems to be what the series will build towards. I figure it will end up being Lords of Shadow 3, assuming it ever happens.
