  • At 1:59 every gamer is thinking "Weak spots, he got to have them... no glowing weakspots... oooh fuck"

  • Assasins Creed + Prince of Persia + Shadow of Colossus + the Voice of Emperor Uriel Septim VII = This?

  • It's look Prince of Persia..

    

  • "These are dark times"

    said by the same guy who voice acted the emporer from Oblivion?

  • i dont know what this is but the voice acting is superb

  • God of Warvania...

  • i was waiting for the eyes of the mask to open....

  • now thats some epic monsters for sure

  • gonna play this game just for the patrick steward voice acting

  • its like dantes inferno.

  • hm likes remix from assassins creed and god of war.

  • god of war?

  • like assassin creed??seems sick

  • @zoziuhuhy Well, if it's anything like it's Castlevania platforming predecessors on snes and nes it's like "Metroid" AKA "Metroidvania" which itself simply combines the idea of non-linear game-play from the original nes Zelda with the platforming physics of the original Mario with a new left & right exploration scheme. C-vania's creators openly state they borrowed from iconic horror cinema in artistic theme. So it all depends, we'll see when it comes out, it might not be anything like it was.

  • @zoziuhuhy BTW assassin's creed is just classic sneak and fight adv., very old genre, same thing with GoW it's just borrows from every adventure game before it with arcade reward tempo very 'old-hat'. Just because a game is done well doesn't mean those in the same genre afterward should be compared to it, only those foundational games which brought the genre about are worth comparing. Other than that you're not talking about much, all their game-play mechanics are borrowed.

  • @jackalsocoke with the exception that GOW is actually the best hack n slash...games that manage to surpass devil may cry is rare only gow did that.no games will surpass GOW in the hack n slash adventure genre no matter what....for that we need to wait the next gen consoles and see if they can refresh these types of games.this game game is a pure GOW copy ESPECIALY the boss fights same like dante inferno (except it was worse than this) the only reason to play this castlevania is kojima story over

  • what is the name of the song in the 00:49?

  • as soon as i heard gabriel i thought vanhelsing

  • there are true gamers

    then there are God of War gamers, that6 say that every action game that comes is a god of war copy.

    Actually castlevania was BEFORE god of war.

  • @NotoriousDudeable Well you can't really deny the similarities between the two games can you? Castlevania IS God of War in every way, regardless of the fact that Castlevania "came first" or "influenced GoW from the beginning". This is pretty funny. It's like watching the little brother of Kratos running around pretending to be as cool. Copying other games is nothing new. Just accept it

  • @FoggyFishburne

    Yea I did get a bit of GoW from watching the gameplay. It's probably going to play very similar. I think I almost notice some of that climbing physx like in Assassin's creed as well but I'm not sure.

  • @FoggyFishburne What I told zoziuhuhy bears repeating here... Nothing you're talking about is at all "original" to ANY of the games you written about so far. It's all old-hat and been done before. The only conversation worth having about this game is 'are they going to stick with "Metroidvania" mechanics or do a arcade reward style adventure game? Which are all 'just like' GoW, but also came out in droves way the hell before it. Dime-O-dozen linear adventure games. lmao, originality, lol.

  • this is a copy of god of war tbh, gameplay wice atleast

  • I remember watching my brother playing this game when I was a wee child.. It was such a pain killing the big boss at the end, but it was fun!

  • Man God of War suxs ass, is a piece of shit game and series, kill that shit. But Castlevania, wow about time, the game that started it all. I Love that game, I hope is all action and adventure, I wish they remake more classics like that.

  • he looks like shangtsung...LoL

  • castlevania has been around since the damn 8bit nes system. all you new school gamers are what we call "graphic whores"...

  • God of War !!! omg copy game

  • @SxJerSonxS Shut up, you don't know anything. :)

  • @SxJerSonxS Ignorant cunt Castlevania has been arouns since the great epidemic of Snes Stupid Fuckwit.....

  • @SxJerSonxS Ignorant cunt Castlevania has been around since the great era of Snes you Stupid Fuckwit. So whats the leason of the Day " research, learn, and study before blabbering some certain none sense" .....

  • @SxJerSonxS Castlevania has been around since he great era of SNES. But i Forgive you your STUPID, IGNORANT, and a FUCKWIT. That's enough for an excuse...

  • is it just me or the fighting part looks like god of war 3 collosal monsters..

  • Spoilers: He doesn't wipe the name of Belmont from this world forever

  • NO pc version = "FUCK YOU KONAMI"

  • Haha its Dr. Rush as the voice of the main dude. Noice

  • Should also be noted Castlevania has been around WAY longer than God of War. Its been one of the staple games that influences all modern games.

    I still remember playing it on gameboy.

  • now thats What I call it a Real Game !

  • @shado1414 no thats what i call milking a franchise to death...

  • this doesnt look like any game other than castlevania, also it is much older than god of crap

  • these was the guys that made Jericho .. oh god

  • @Greesovith These WERE, it's 'were' not "was."

  • @aresdotexe so.. whats your point?

  • @Greesovith I was correcting your grammar.

  • @aresdotexe yeah i know. I just feel sorry for you. 

  • @Greesovith Why are you feeling sorry for me? (by the way, your first "I" should have been capitalized.)

  • Looks like lord of the rings.

  • @creative36 I'm not really sure how... The only ways I can think of would also make it so that you could say it looks like any fantasy story.

  • This game is going to be sic.Cant wait

  • i remember this game when it was just a bad 2d graphics lol that you play at the arcades

  • hurry up and release this fucking game already so we can play it!

  • am I the only one that thinks Patrick Stewart's voice is awesome?

  • @Knightshield Yes you are. lol =p

  • @Knightshield No, you are not.

  • Dracula is the one that talks in the end, and yes, Gabriel is a Belmont =)

  • ALRIIIGHT! Yeaaah! Get hyped for Assasinvania of War!

  • this is gonna be badass

  • The baddie at the trailer's end (who I can safely assume is Drac) sounds remarkably like John Rafter Lee, who also did the VO for vampire "villian" Meier Link in the 2000 Vampire Hunter D anime, "Bloodlust"...

  • lol i remember playing this on my nintendo 64 :'D

    never gat that yellow thing working so i could save my game thoug xD

  • good, but not castelevania.

  • just like GOW

  • noob

  • n00b

  • Only better, come on, It is made by Hideo Kojima!

  • Kojima is my hero. He's going to save us from Twilight.

  • @Supes what are you talking about?

  • This game looks sick i cant wait til it comes out

  • You're freakin crazy then, everything bout this came is awesome, ESPECIALLY the graphics! Stop playing lame ass kiddy games and join the real world where ones like these rule and are here to stay.

  • Wow! Never seen a game so good that i'm wishing they'd make it into a full epic movie! Why can't they make games like these into them? Never heard of this game bfore but i so want to get it.

  • Good choice!

  • my god

    this is teh winner

    this is too epic

    definitely EPIC WIN

  • No, this is a Gargantuanly Astronomical WIN! (GAW)

  • This game looks so amazing. @@

  • Is Dracula still the main villain?

  • FINALLY! They give it the rreatment it deserves, the 3D version on 64 was really average... all the later sidescrollers was awesome..

  • I find it interesting that Gabriel's chest plate has the same carving/signet that appears in what looks like the entrance to a boss room. It also bears resemblance to the item he holds out to the villager. I'm getting the impression that he and Dracula may be part of the same order......and Dracula is using him to get this mask. Just a theory...

  • robert carlyle has a awsome voice when it comes to speak like a irish man

  • you mean scottish man he's scottish

  • my gosh...games are starting to look more like movies now. two main examples are this and heavy rain

  • looks ofsome

  • If he's not a Belmont, then you'd have to imply that he's somehow fighting the Belmont's cause somehow. Otherwise, the antagonist at the end wouldn't bother taunting Gabriel by telling him he's going to wipe the name from the face of the Earth. I'm going with the simpler explanation: Gabriel is a Belmont.

  • looks like god of war >.>

  • That's what I thought when I first saw this game. God of War.

  • Gabriel is a Belmont or just some dood trying to revive his wife with that weird mask?

  • he is a belmont

  • thats not proven only implied so don't state it as if it were a fact

  • srry i meant of belmont blood

  • This game is going to be tight. I do have one question though, I didn't notice any grusome kills in the gameplay. That might have been because I only have limited sight in one of my eyes. Can someone please tell me if this game is going to have very gory kills or not? I'm going to buy this hell yeah!

  • Seems that way. It doesn't look like Mercurysteam is pulling any punches with this game. I wouldn't be surprised to see it nab an M rating. I just don't know if Konami will allow it. But for sure, there's lots of blood going on in many of those attacks.

  • I'm pretty sure Konami will allow the blood and intense violence. What all grusome things do you see decap and dismemberment wise?

  • Well, if you check out Konami's official site for the game....one of the screenshots shows a massive explosion of blood resulting from something that Gabriel is doing. That's pretty telling to me.

  • What's the site for the game? I can't wait to buy this game! I am curious as to if these gory kills will happen at random or if you'll get a prompt to do a finishing move? Which version wil you buy? I'm buying the PS3 version.

  • Undecided. I have a 360 right now, but I will be getting a PS3 sometime before the end of the year.

  • onimusha ??

  • I'm so hyped for this! Patrick Stewart? Robert Carlyle (28 Weeks Later)?! Castlevania!?! BEAUTIFUL MUSIC?!?!

    Combine all = EPIC ADVENTURE

    Worth my Wait!

    And... please stop comparing this to God Of War.

    GoW was influenced by Castlevania.

  • Not to mention this game looks & sounds like it's going to have one of the greatest portrayals of Dracula in a long time.

    The trash talking between him & Gabriel is going to rock too.

  • will it be for a PC ?

  • "I will wipe the name of Belmont from this world... Forever!"

  • If it's got Kojima Productions as a part of it then it's DEFINITLY one to watch out for!!!!!

  • Ummm, guys. Castlevania did not copy God of War.

    Castlevania influenced God of War from the very beginning.

  • Yeah alot of people are too stupid to understand that...

  • I know, but it's okay though.

    This is their video game generation, so they only understand about the new ones. Haha.

  • @MikaGuitars

    agreed. Castlevania started the epic boss battles before any game got the chance. the use of the whip, and using it as a method of travel all started with Konami's ideas.

  • looks woth renting

  • @karimzk if its as long as curse of darkness you wont beat it by renting it once

  • ive never really been a castlevania fan but this one looks impressive .. wish it was an HD trailer tho

  • HD trailer can be found at GameTrailers.

    anyways, this looks like the only Castlevania game with good cinematic story telling. hell, Patrick Stewart is voice-acting in here and that's enough to get me to buy it (as a fan of his work)

    maybe Lords of Shadow can become the Castlevania game to finally best Symphony of the Night, once and for all.

  • Hooah, just after i posted that i found it lol , but yea i definetly agree

  • Every game is trying to be God of War. That's not a bad thing though, God of War is incredible!

  • The fact that your name is "retro" gamer and your comment is that of a child's who have never played a video game before the year 2004... Ok "retro" gamer if your so "retro" you would clearly understand there were 3D Castlevania games before GOW and DMC, and when GOW released people have called out his whip-like weapons and compared them to Castlevania... but your so "retro" you already know this huh?

  • Yeah no shit sherlock, but no action 3D game using a whip like weapon, before GOW, ever got it so right, as GOW did, both in it's play mechanics and gruesome badass kills. It influenced many games after it. This new Castlevania game is no exception. That's what I meant.

  • God of War hype. -_-

    So you're saying Castlevania never got the whip right. Yet, it is one of the most beloved game series in history.

  • No, not in the 3D versions of Castlevania.

  • STFU please... your speaking about combos thats the "got it right" feature your talking about... many games had combos in the same fashion BEFORE GOW including Castlevania. Stop making a futher ass of yourself...

  • Yeah and we know how popular those games were, Haha! Not just combos you little bitch. The controls, the graphics, dialogue, soundtrack. You just made an ass of yourself with your absurd comments.

  • So your telling me there has been NO games before GOW with great combo system, great graphics, story, and soundtrack musical score? Umm yeah buddy your just some stupid fucking GOW fanboy giving his point of view as if it is completely factual, your the one making an ass of yourself, keep replying so I can put you in your place some more... dipshit.

  • No, I'm not telling you that. You're saying that. You stupid fuck. Now go back to masturbating in your Mom's basement and shut your hole bitch!

  • I'm sorry, but GoW doesn't own the patent on any of those features. GoW is a great game, don't get me wrong. But the story-driven 3rd person action adventure genre does not being and end with GoW. And you haven't put your hands on LoS's gameplay yet.....so saying it controls the same is a pretty big stretch. I have few doubts that this game will stand just fine on its own while avoiding GoW's shadow.

  • @RetroVGamer hey dude castlevania was out years before god of war was even an idea so technically god of war is trying to be castlevania

  • flame whip?

  • Huh...backgrounds and settings from the latest Prince of Persia...fighting style from God of War...and art design and characterization from Devil May Cry 4...plus the voices of Patrick Stewart and Robert Carlyle?

    FUCK YEAH, I AM SO THERE!!! :D

  • mmm this is gonna be awsome if it is a 3d metroidvania experience with levelling up and sich!

  • I dont like some of u guyz complaining that this is another god of war clone ..because god of war is frikkin awesome nd if this is like gow logically then its bound to be awesome also! ...i think it looks great! looks much better then dantes inferno..

  • okay i'll give it a try, it's been a while since a proper 3d castlevania, it looks like they're trying at least!

  • Hahah I love patrick stewart's voice. It can make anything sound so epic.

  • GODOFWAR GODOFWAR GODOFWAR GODOFWAR GODOFWAR GODOFWAR GODOFWAR GODOFWAR GODOFWAR GODOFWAR GODOFWAR GODOFWAR

    for christ sake ppl, stop being so narrow minded...

    this game's gonna be effin awesome

    go suck some kratos dick

  • I've been waiting for a new God of War trailer :D

    ...

    2:50... Oh

  • patrik stewart makes this game bad fucking ass

  • LOLZ, I C WUT U DID THUR

  • I love the castlevania series, but i just cant seem to break away from the original side scrollers. SOTN was the best in the series to me. I'll still give this one a go though, story looks compelling =)

  • They probably wanted to test this new system on a non-Belmont character. Then do something that rapes with a Belmont.

  • The story actually looks awesome....

  • No offence to whoever likes this game but the gameplay looks like they put together final fantasy and god of war into a good lookin game. It even uses the camera in god of war when he fights LOL. well hope it is a good game or kojima gets its ass kiked by Final fantasy and god of war LOL jks.

  • Gameplay for the first time? Tsk, tsk.

    They quite CLEARLY showed some gameplay in the E3 trailer.

  • it look so awesome I would buy it when it come out

  • legend of zelda deserves a better system than wii and ds

  • ledgend of zelda on crack

  • Oh nothing beats Zelda...except Zelda. XD

  • You know. There was a time when God of War didn't exist, guys.

  • Why does everyone mention God of War as if that's the pinnacle? GoW is overated anyway.

  • Some people have such small brain that they can hold only one game of a genre in their head. You know... Halo is the only FPS and everything else is a ripoff :P

  • I prefer Metroid Prime. :P

  • This looks so freaking awesome !

    Best Game evaa !

    OMG i wanna play this soo hard xD

  • looks good

    it looks like God of War

    cannot be bad in that case

  • It Is fairly good.

  • GoW much?

  • Castlevania = 2d

    Must say I hate what they did its just like GoW!

  • Not a big Castlevania fan, but seeing Hideo Kojima's name, I will definitley look into this.

  • Looks like God of War...

  • this trailer is the E3 09 one aswell

  • Jean Luke Picard says Dracula needs better rendering.

  • you clearly didn't. the one on xbox live, didnt have the end dialogue with the line "i will wipe the name of belmont from this world forever"

  • basicaly it's a GoW game with castlevania story elements =_= this is becoming quite popular this days uu'

  • patrick stewart? is that u, dear?

  • kojima is awsome

  • epic

  • SEXYYYY

  • whats this game coming out for?

  • Hmm...Graphics and gameplay both look awesome...might be worth a look.

  • Looks like Xbox just got God of War 3. They could have used a better font for "Revenge 2010"

  • Castlevania really needs to stick to 2D side scrollers. I think this kills one of the best games ever.

  • true ds one is sweet

  • I think i saw dracula's chair at 4:09

  • Wow. That was incredible. I really hope it turns out well. I know it's from Kojima, but that doesn't necessarily mean it will be a blockbuster. Then again, he has never disappointed before.

  • 1:55 GOW D: Wait ... oh my mistake

  • I hope for this 3 or 4 endings

  • omg this looks really good. the art style is amazing that they have in this trailer, and the fighting looks fluid and exciting. also the music and voice work so far are so far better than the average game its astounding.

  • This looks a lot like god of war. I would probably bash it but knowing its hideo kojima well what has he done that hasnt been short of epic.

    It'll probablky have an amazing storyline
