  • Castlevania: Lords of Shadow

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

So I just finished the game after doing a 7 hour marathon, like I haven't done since university. Not to say I beat the game in 7 hours, as that number would probably be closer to 25-30. I played on the second hardest difficulty (have to beat the game on that one to unlock the hardest). I ended up getting all the power ups (except one, damnit), and spent a fair amount of time replaying levels to do so (as well as to complete some challenges). I DIED A LOT... so much... I'm glad they don't post that as a stat when you beat the game.

I really like the game, must say it was much better than the 3D Castlevania that came out for the original Xbox. Ending is kinda... convenient, but we'll see what they do with the DLC and the franchise going forward.

Anyone else play this one?

I'm waiting for them to fix the PS3 save issues before we pop it in. Got Medal of Honor to keep me occupied for this weekend

Got it in queue, but haven't played it yet. Finished SC: Conviction, and currently Fallout 3 again for the DLC. (My dad's been playing Fallout 3 for the first time, and got me interested in diving into the DLC. Plus the whole Fallout: New Vegas thing.)
