Next on our trip down memory lane is Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest. The follow up to Konami’s smash hit Castlevania, is a mixture of side scrolling action and RPG style weapon and item acquiring. We all know that with recent gaming, Action/RPG has been a successful formula, but what about twenty three years ago. Step inside to see if Simon’s Quest was a groundbreaking title, or if Simon’s body parts should have been strewn across the land just like Dracula’s.

In this First Look we bring you the first few minutes of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow’s DLC “REVERIE”. Since the destruction of the Lords, the world has been engulfed in darkness, with unspeakable evils beginning to roam the lands. Gabriel’s first task returns him to Carmilla’s castle, in search of the Forgotten One…

With the long awaited DLC for Castlevania slated to be released at the end of the month, Konami has released the details of Gabriel’s upcoming quest along with some HD game art. Check it out inside.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow DLC? Its’s been taking so long that we’ve forgotten all about it! Well fear not Castlevania fans, Konami is still set to release the game’s first DLC titled “Reverie” in the near future. Inside you’ll find the first pic of the DLC, as well as a reason as to why it’s taking so long to be released…

A new entry to the Castlevania franchise is here with a new quest and an endless supply of blood sucking vampires and werewolves to slay, but will it be any better than the last 3D attempt that ended in failure?  We proudly present this brutally honest review to see if a reboot of this classic franchise was the right decision to make.

“What A Horrible Night to Have A Curse” Welcome back all for another highly anticipated Head2Head. This week we take a look at Castlevania: Lords of Shadow for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Thanks once more to the folks over at Play N Trade, Oviedo, FL for supplying us our test copies. We were able to preview LOS at this years E3 conference, and ever-since we’ve really been looking forward to doing this Head2Head. Now that time has come and we finally get our chance to chain whip our way through hordes of vampires and werewolves to grant one version the title “Lord of Castlevania”.

Let us start by saying in no way does this very brief screenshot comparison represent the final version of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow. Early yesterday the demo was released on Xbox Live, and made available for free to all European PSN members. From what we played at E3, we believe this is that same demo (which is pretty old). You can expect a full Head2Head with Analysis within the next few days on the final retail version of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow. With that being said, we just couldn’t help but try out these two demos while nabbing a few screen grabs of both along the way, just for fun of course.

Earlier today European Playstation Plus members were given “first crack” at the demo of Konami’s latest adventure, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow.

A new trailer has been released for Konami’s upcoming Castlevania: Lords of Shadow. The trailer was first released with only Japanese text but has since been translated to English. Needless to say, in this “Hideo Kojima Special Edition Preview” the game looks better then ever. Check it out after the jump. Castlevania: Lords of Shadows will be released on October 5th for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.

A new gameplay video has emerged for Konami’s Castlevania: Lords of Shadow. As shown in the video, the game is looking like it plays a bit like God of War 3 and Dante’s Inferno…which we believe is a good thing. Castlevania Lords of Shadow is due in stores on October 19th 5th for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. Crack that whip after the jump!

For those of you who don’t want the traditional side scrolling Castlevania, Kojima has just the game you’re looking for. Castlevania: Lords of Shadows was shown off at E3 2010, and it was a floor stopper. The graphics were over the top with solid looking character models, great backgrounds, and some super nice weather effects.

If you haven’t seen this or played this yet, take a few minutes and check it out. These guys took Super Mario Bros and added a bunch of playable characters which include; Link, Mega Man, Simon, Samus, and Bill.

WiiWare’s next game to receive the Rebirth upgrade is Castlevania: The Adventure. This game released way back in 1989 on the original Gameboy. Thankfully, Nintendo gave this game a major Rebirthing. Check out why after the jump.
