E3 Teaser Trailer: Castlevania: Lords of Shadow

Castlevania- narrated by Patrick Stewart? Produced by Hideo Kojima? The cinematic quality of this trailer alone puts many Hollywood movie trailers to shame.

Though the recent 3D Castlevanias, namely Lament of Innocence and Curse of Darkness, were generally well received, they lacked a certain awesomeness factor that made Symphony of the Night so memorable.  I’m guessing it will likely take a page from the seemless quality of recent AAA action titles, but of course stay true to the Belmont tradition of whipping Dracula’s minion’s to hell. And having classically trained actors playing Castlevania characters doesn’t hurt either. I am so glad that Dracula returns every century.

But enough talk…just watch the trailer, already!
