WTF! Not even 1 thread about the new Castlevania!
« on: October 26, 2003, 11:57:59 PM »
I just picked it up today, but it\'s still in it\'s shrinkwrap.  Does the game stink.  Mabe Live in Clip can tell me what he thinks, since he loves the idea of a 3d Castlevania, and he thoght Metroid Prime was the best Metroid blowing away Super Metroid for the SNES out of the water.  Seriously though should I return it, or tear it open and play?

Tear it open and play- give us a good review too.

Return the game and say it didnt work. Works all the time for me.

Ya\' know - I was gonna start a thread, but I didn\'t.

I went ahead and bought the game and I\'d say its one of the biggest piece of shit in recent time. The camera is awkard, the gameplay is boring and the map sucks my ass. It\'s already on the shelf , to never be seen again.

I saw a big long preview of that game on X-Play, and it looked like crap. I was excited until I realized how bland it was. I\'ll still rent it though, my friend works at Blockbuster so I can get it for free, so I won\'t end up paying for it if it sucks a**...

You stop playing one crap game just to play another crap game?

And it\'s not crap:

It looked like a piece on the tv commercials.  I thought it was an advertisement for devil may cry or chaos legion.  Didn\'t even look like Castlevania.  Anyway I knew LIC would buy it first and let us know.  Just like I bought Tomb Raider: POS.

That\'s right, it\'s not crap because everyone else says it\'s not crap.  :rolleyes:  The days of accepting everyone elses opinions as your own are over.  If LiC says CV sucks, and I say it sucks, then there will more then likely be a group of people out there who love it and that\'s life.  It\'s time to accept reality and move on.  Simply throwing a link from gamerankings in our collective faces will not make us change our opinions -- ever.

The game is a pile of bile.  Any real Castlevania fan knows that it lacks many of the key elements that makes Castlevania great -- namely a good camera (since they were mostly 2D, this was never a real problem and now it is), a nice RPG like level up system, a number of great spells and collectible items, and tough bosses that really test your patience tossed in there with great level design and unfortunately, LoI lacks all of that.

Developers need to read this and finally realize what it takes to make a good camera system because having a bad camera system today, especially after nearly ten years working with 3D game design, is absolutely ridiculous and apalling.

There\'s no thread mentioning it because it looks like crap, plays like crap...and just CRAP.

Well, if someone can say one incredibly terrible game is better then another incredibly terrible game, then that definitely has to say something.
