  • I couldn't really get into the first one, the game got boring quickly. But this one looks a lot better so I'll give it a go!
  • Cant find the RRP for the collection at all. Braders , throw a dog a bone.
  • Just playing through Castlevania: LoS and i am loving the game to bits! I cannot wait for these games to be released!
  • Only Castlevania game I ever played was SotN, which I first played only a few months ago. It quickly became one of my favorite games on the Arcade, and I've done 5 playthroughs of the story since. I also tried the trial to Harmony of Despair, but couldn't really get into it (heard it is much better in co-op however). How is the first LoS game, and are there any other games that are very similar to SotN that I should try to find?
  • the first game was rather boring. the screens look great, but so did the screens for the 1st one...
  • I enjoyed the first game, although replaying the missions to get 1k was a bit grindy and I never finished the DLC even though I bought it when it was 66% off. I liked the combat, enemies and level design, so I'm most likely buying this on the day of release.
  • @4 yea, its quite a bit tedious in some places in SP, hence why i haven't finished it myself >.>
  • the first game was brilliant and i can't wait to play the sequel, i never played the older game showing but im looking forward to that HD version too.
  • I want to play this now! Both of them actually=) I will defo pick up sequel on release day, seeing as I missed out on such a great game when it first came out. Only played it about a year later LOL I won't make that mistake again=D
  • Wow did they ever improve MoF. It's so jaggy on the 3DS.
  • As a big Castlevaina fan, I really enjoyed this one as well. The only problem I had was it was linear compared to the old school Castlevania games like SOTN where u can go anywhere in the castle. The killing animations for this game though is amazing.
  • I just hope they added facial animations while talking to the HD version of Mirror of Fate. Also... I ****ing HATE Chupacabras...
  • While I'm very disappointed, I guess I can understand they didn't want to release against 2 new systems and a lot of huge games. Smart to go to a less crowded release date. Just disappointed I can't play the game this year :(
  • If the collection is available on the same date as LoS2, how is it an early access demo?
  • @11 actually SOTN and the like would be 'new school'-castlevania, as the oldschool castlevania games were very linear platform games (but extremely awesome). with SOTN they headed in a new direction which was received very well and used for every castlevania title since then. well cept for LoS, which was inspired by the old old-school games like Super Castlevania IV. (which incidentally also took place mostly outside of the castle, which was one of the things considered a negative in LoS).
  • @14: Its a error in their news coverage. Mirrors of Fate HD and The LoS Collection comes out on the 29th of October.
  • @13: Yeah that is what I posted with my ps3trophies.org account also. Nov and Dec will be such a mess with XB1 and PS4 launching and their titles. I'm disappointed that we have to wait till 2014 but with Mirrors of fate HD and the collection I'm looking forward to. So I'll forgive them.
  • What's the point of the demo if the game will already be out >_>
  • @18, you were ninja'ed by me @14 with a response to me @16
