[E3 2010] - Castlevania: Harmony of Despair

Dracula returns in Castlevania Harmony of Despair, the first exclusive Xbox Live Arcade Castlevania game. Featuring the classic fast paced 2D, side scrolling action the series is known for, fan favorite vampire hunters from across the series will join forces to return Dracula, the Lord of Darkness, to his eternal slumber.

Designed by the legendary producer of the Castlevania series, Koji Igarashi, Castlevania Harmony of Despair allows up to 6 friends to play together via online co-op story mode or see who the best vampire hunter is in Survival Mode, which challenges players to fend off their friends while fighting for their very survival. Utilize your co-op skills to explore the levels with your friends in order to find hidden locations with special items and equipment or team up in battle to let loose destructive attacks on the hordes of attacking creatures.

With a plan for continued game content delivered through downloadable add-ons, players will be able to experience new levels with new characters as they extend the experience of the latest Castlevania downloadable game.

@alphatatsumaki Since most of the design for both rooms and enemies comes from the ds games, that would be just as hard as it was to redesign it to xbox and ps3.

[alphatatsumaki]

@RaisouE Well if they zoom in any more, you won't see the 3-4 enemies off-screen attacking you, because of the way the rooms are designed, which means that they would have to either redesign the levels or play with the AI so that they only attack you on screen and not to mention that some parts of the room/s you can only see when zooming out, again making things too small to see, which goes back to redesigning the levels.

@alphatatsumaki And that is something you don't think is easily changeable...

[alphatatsumaki]

@RaisouE The way it is on PS3/360, it's too zoomed out as it is. put that on handheld, and you can't see shit.

I've played several Castlevania installments, and I'll say this time and time again:

The Puppet Master is the creepiest fucking boss I've seen in Castlevania. :'D

[RaisouE]

@darklefaux Actually I feel this game screams handheld. My personal feeling though.
