Too bad they couldn't have made Gabriel Belmont a guest character on the new Soul Calibur coming out soon. I might actually consider getting if they had done that. It would be cool as heck killing some super huge powerful character to this music. ;P
The only thing i'm kinda annoyed by this game is that both Chapter 1 and 2 are somewhat, meh, and Chapter 2 isn't that short either... The game kicks up at Chapter 3 though...
I'm a big fan of the instruments used in these music tracks... While I don't have the game myself (though I play it at my brother's house whenever I can), I can say that this turned to be one of my favorite soundtracks in gaming, and i've heard alot of awesome game/movie soundtracks before :D.
@Blitz1Blacktail1 yup, Chapter 2 is a bit annoying, it doesn't have the Castlevania feel, but from chapter 3 and so on it gets, specially at the Castle part =)
from 1:30 to 1:40 there is a specific theme that plays and im quite sure to have heard this theme in an other track of this game,but i don't remember wich one,and in this track the "theme" was more clear and long,if you know which it is plz tell me
@elitespecforce I've heard it too. It was in a cut scene during the begining of the game I believe with Gabriel traveling , and there was the map in the background... If i remember correctly. I don't think that track was released in the OST though.
Great composition. Not the biggest fan of all the vocal chantings but I love brass so this pretty much was heaven too me. There's a power you get from brass that's unrivaled and makes a scene so epic! I'm an amateur composer so I really look up too stuff like this. :)
@DarthVorace It all depends on the ear of the beholder, so to speak. I showed this too a friend of mine and he didn't like the booming brass and strings which I loved personally. We all have our certain affinities toward different instruments I suppose but even though I'm not of fan of chanting or vocals, I can say this is grade A+ quality and tone in the vocals :)
Amazing ost, fuck haters. This game is pretty underrated by gamers in general. The game basically takes GoW and little bits from uncharted platofrming etc. and ups the difficulty (a good thing) and adds a unique flavor to it. On top of that it also looks and sounds amazing, great values all around.
Hey everybody! I have released my new album 'Progenitor' which has electronic music inspired by great games such as the Castlevania series. You can check it out and download it for free on my youtube channel if you're interested!
Off the subject. Just beat the game! Good overall but TOO MANY puzzles! No place for puzzles in an adventure game. Must be at least 20-30 if not more. Complaints about puzzles in game call KONAMI at 310-220-8330. Hopefully the next one has no puzzles or animals stealing our relics/magic.
1:09-1:31 is epic but it leads up to 1:32 which is where it really gets epic. They shoulda played this score in the Thor movie; where Thor sacrafices himself and is worthy again to weld the hammer.
Although the original Castlevania, SCIV, and SotN hold places in my heart as Castlevania greatness (although SotN was incredibly easy), LoS was one of the best games I've ever played...
when playing this game i kept referring zobeck as Uriel Septim from Oblivion, i was like "comon Uriel septim" "ohmahgod uriel septim watch out the ceiling is collapsing" XD
Amazingly beautiful OST, and from an amateur composer even! He won a few music awards for this though, so that's good. Hope the sequel has even better music!
can someone tell me the title of the music played when battling against th scarecrow at the chapter where we will get the key for baba yaga.i also hear it from other battles. epic music.
i really think they should of removed the title Castlevania and just considered this a new ip called Lords of Shadow but then people will just bitch how it rips off Castlevania... so either way haters are gonna hate =P
@grygierpeps Very true. In all seriousness, "Lords of Shadow" isn't as bad as lots of people say. I will admit that some of the puzzle solving and boss battles were a little exhausting, but I still enjoyed playing that game.
@nignogfrogdog Well, lots of critics bashed it and compared it to "God of War". Even though I like GOW, I'm really getting sick of every reviewer comparing platformer games to that. It's getting ridiculous.
When I saw this monster at first I thought: "How to hell am I goint to beat this thing with just a whip?!! (I didn't see the trailers) I just ran toward him whipping him hahaha, obviously, I died :'(
El verdadero genio del arte definitivamente ha cambiado de sitio. Antes se veia en las galerias de los museos, ¡pero ahora esta en las consolas!. Los verdaderos artistas han mudado sus estudios llenos de polvo y se han puesto ha hacer juegos de video, ¡solo observen!. Un orquesta impresionante, una historia conmovedora, triste y a la vez impactante, un detalle tecnologico que rivaliza en imaginacion, pasion y originalidad con cualquier pintura clasica!. Este no es un juego, es un obra de arte!
its a shame that the whole OST of this game are more orchestal and not using the piano or keyboards like the past games, some that you can recognice this game is fot the ost but still is good to heard orchestal music and epicness in the game
@AndresDrakulAlcaide I gotta hand it to you Spaniards; you know how to make good movies (especially horror movies like REC, etc) and it sounds like you've got some good music composers as well. :D
I don't care what anyone thinks about the game-play or soundtrack; as a long-time Castlevania fan I believe that this game delivers on all levels. Glad that there's already talk of a sequel in the works.
@matmusada This game was epic in it's own right. People call it a Shadow of the colossus knock off, God of War wannabe, hell both those games are amazing and diserve homages. Especially Shadow of the Colossus, I was surprised to see some ideas being reused from that beautiful game.
Now, I haven't played the game yet, but after you beat the demo, and it shows that trailer featuring certain parts of the game, when 1:30 kicked in, in all it's BOMBASTIC glory, I said to myself that I would get this game before the year's end, if only for the music. Truly, utterly amazing. Rivals even Uncharted2 and GoWIII's scores so far, and that ain't a bad thing at all.
@bogardboy none of the old castlevania songs where orchestal... or intended to be. this song, or any other would fit in 8 bit.. is just so much Epicness.
SOMEONE PLEASE MAKE AN 8-BIT VERSION OF LORDS OF SHADOW's TRACKS! I really would love to hear one of the tracks of this game in 8-bit as a throw back to the original castlevanias! xD
can somebody tell me how is it possible to kill him in less than 1:30?? 1:30 takes me to only make it to his back o.O is there some trick?
