E3 2012: getting angelic in DmC

DmC has garnered much controversy simply based around Dante’s new look, which quite frankly is stupid, but I’m not going to get into that at all today because the main focus on any game, and more importantly any action game, is the gameplay.

E3 2012: Castlevania: Lords of Shadow- Mirror of Fate

First off, let me just say that this is probably the dumbest title for a Castlevania title I’ve ever laid eyes on, its really long, and requires far too much punctuation, it also seems to show an unwillingness to associate the Castlevania name with something that Konami probably knows isn’t quite Castlevania; but I digress, [...]
