Yeah, baby!

Can't wait:smile:

Meh. Show us gameplay.

 

[Arwin]

Nice trailer at least.

My 2nd favorite action game behind Bayonetta. Can't wait!

LoS was GOTY 2010 for me. Hope to check it out tomorrow at E3.

Nice trailer at least.

Thanks in the name of the team

Thanks in the name of the team

In retrospect I think this was my favorite CGI trailer this E3 - perhaps even topping the AC3 trailer. The animation, the sound, the editing - I felt everything was done just right.
This year there were no SW:TOR CGI trailers from Blur however (I was always a sucker for those) so it probably made the competition easier. :smile:

I have a quick question about the first game. Is that epilogue cutscene real-time or an offline render using the game engine? I know the game uses a mix of both, so it's likely the latter, but I never did make it to the end to judge for myself. And it's hard to tell in a compressed youtube clip:

I mean, on one hand, that seems impossibly polished to be real-time. On the other, why go with a render when most of your cutscenes this far have been real-time, especially for an after credits sequence where you've got plenty of lead time to load assets. Anyone know for sure?

If I remember correctly some microblocks were visible, so that thing was an FMV. I was wondering the same thing but it was running offline from disk

Figured it was too good to be true. Thanks.

The game is looking good. It won't ever completely give up it's GOW-like mechanics, but it's still setting itself apart from it in other ways.

Wow, a 3D Castelvania game? Can you whip at the walls and find roasted chicken in them

I also wonder who built these huge castles (they must cost billions and take decades to build) and why there always seems to be only a couple people living inside them.

 

[Nesh]

Simply amazing visuals! I could have mistaken them for next gen!

 

[RenegadeRocks]

Looking great ! but don't like the overuse of red in the whole scene. First game was fantastic, this should be too.

This time on PC for me...

Loved the first one. I will definitely pick this one up.

In 2 days LoS1 is coming out on PC. It also has awesome visuals [expecially after the initial tutorial/swamp area].
