O yes my hunch was correct. Do fucking want

 

[SolidSnakex]

Looks like we're about to get the first good console CV in a long time.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

stop pulling shit from ur ass. link. now!

EDIT: WTF is gamepress

 

[Azrael]

So the Iga PS360 Castlevania has been canned and Lord of Shadows has been rebranded a Castlevania game. Since I have even less faith in Iga than the LoS developers to make a good 3D Castlevania, I guess that's a good thing.

[Guymelef]

So... who will be the hero?
Lord of Shadow guy or Alucard?

Game journalists' source of information. Think like Reuters or AP, but for gaming.

 

[Costanza]

The gamespress thing is real

 

[Nervous Hamster]

EDIT: WTF is gamepress

Press site. They're taking their info straight from Voltage PR, so in 99,9% it is the real deal.


To sum it, the KojiPro projects are:

1. Metal Gear Solid: Rising (PS3, Xbox 360, PC)
2. Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker (PSP)
3. Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (PS3, Xbox 360)

 

[NeoUltima]

So... who will be the hero?

Neither. Gray Fox

 

[Cerberus]

So is Lords of Shadow a collaboration between Kojima Productions and MercurySteam or has Koji Pro competely taken over the project now?

A guy in the other thread said his friend was working on it and KojiPro weren't "that involved" in it.

 

[Xun]

I still think it's Sunny or his son.

They may have taken his codename!

 

[maniac-kun]

when you look at the teaser from a year ago they could use the metal gear solid 4 engine for the game

["God's Beard!"]

Could Raiden turn invisible in MGS4 like Gray Fox could? I want MGSR to be like playing the ninja in VR missions.

 

[TheMissingLink]

Peace Walker?

Peace Walker.

The more I say it, the more stupid it sounds.

Peace Walker.

 

[Red Blaster]

Wouldn't be surprised if Kojima was not directing a single one of those games.

DUDE!

E3 is kicking ass this year and it's only conference day!

 

[Chamber]

I'm shocked that isn't getting more attention. A Kojima made Castlevania is huge news.

 

[Kowak]

he is directing something

 

[Sage00]

Yeah, someone should start a thread. I would but I can't. :lol

 

[Grizzlyjin]

I don't specifically remember a scene where he did it, but I don't see why not. Even Old Snake was hooked up with the camo technology in MGS4.

 

[SRG01]

Woah. I'm now more excited about this CV game than the MGS announcement!

 

[Dragnet]

I don't give a flying FUCK about fucking Castlevania!

 

[firen]

Why the hell did you do it?! You've killed my site, you bastard! :lol :lol :lol

Haha! Sorry? It seemed solid enough to handle the traffic.

 

[Darkpen]

Lightning Bolt Action....

Hmmm....

I wonder how it'll play? I can imagine it being some sort of weird combination of Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions' Gray Fox section, meets MGS2S's Ninja VR section, meets Zone of Enders 2 combat, meets MGS3's Guy Savage minigame, meets MGS2 and MGS4 MGO's Raiden gameplay...

A combination which doesn't really sound very compelling.

If they're calling it "Lightning Bolt Action," I can only imagine something akin to that first "challenge" mode video of Batman Arkham Asylum that was shown a while back, but faster. Maybe like Tenchu? That would seem like the equivalent.

Quick and shocking gameplay? Hmmm

Spoiler

I really do hope they start the game from the end of MGS2

 

[SolidSnakex]

This man must be CV's director

Murata! He's perfect for it.

 

[Chamber]

I don't give a flying FUCK about fucking Castlevania!

Well...

....ok.

 

[Darkpen]

This man must be CV's director

Murata! He's perfect for it.

he would!

 

[Y2Kev]

lmao just found out about IGA

IGa FUKOWNED

 

[freethought]

So a full on MGS Rising trailer and announcement of a Big Boss PSP game at tomorrows Sony conference then?

I have to admit, I was hoping for some TEA at this years E3. Still, Rising is sure to rock, I'm hoping for some ninja stealth action in there though.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

IGA annihilated...

Well... In MGS4 Rayden takes down several metal gears on its own. I don't really think he needs to play it stealthy... I expect a ZOE game with a MGS skin. And that would be awesome!

 

[SolidSnakex]

KJ: This "R", is Rising.
HM: Ahahahaha.
KJ: I won't say "please release this", but if it's going to be released I guess there's nothing I can do.
HM: So you don't know at this point?
KJ: Well It's not that I don't know, laughs.
HM: Ah, then you DO know.
KJ, Well, I don't know, laughs.
HM: Which one is it, laughs. Even with that, this is going to make a big impact on people when this is announced.

Hmmm...

 

[Graphics Horse]

Eh, I don't know, he'll still do those DS games. He's probably more relieved than anything.

They might even start selling better too.

 

[Yazuka]

Wow, this feels big. A Castlevania game by Kojima Productions.
I'm very interested.

 

[fullmetalht]

Ninja Raiden certainly wasn't sneaky. If you watch him in MGS4 you'd definitely think of something like DMC. An extremely stylized action. I'm expecting something that's more stealthy though, but you'll be able to do crazy shit simply because it is Ninja Raiden.

Meh, Ninja Raiden could've been sneaky. His first appearance, he's there to save Snake. Sure, when helping him, he's all flashy and shit, but how did he get there in the first place. Ninja shit, son :lol

 

[Kibbles]

Castlevania!

 

[SolidSnakex]

I just noticed MGS:R doesn't even have a 2010 listed as its estimated date. You know that it's far off.

Told you guys they were probably working on at least two or three games considering the number of producers they currently have on staff (and that was before the Famitsu interview, yet some crow-eater was telling me I was an idiot for saying so).

EDIT: Raiden can teleport. In the database, there is an entry for "Zero Shift" for no apparent reason, which explains it as the phenomenon of teleporting, that was one believed to be impossible, but first achieved by Gene in MPO.

Raiden teleported

Spoiler

when he was about to be crushed in Act 4, that's why there were Terminator-ish lighting bolts left after he disappeared

 

[Orlics]

There's totally room for like, 2 or 3 more 'posters' on here.

Please be a PS3 game. PUH-LEASE.

Do you mean PSP? Rising is already on PS3.

 

[Darkpen]

Indeed. He talks about learning tracking techniques, so he's clearly still a stealthy guy.

 

[2real4tv]

I don't give a flying FUCK about fucking Castlevania!

Will someone please gif this fool

 

[Quazar]

So Castlevania to be at Sonys conference?

Or Konami's?
