Intrigued by news of SMT4 and the new Lords of Shadow game. Wish I could punch every putz on the internet that whines about Castlevania needing to be a 2D sprite based platformer again. Fuck those guys. I grew up with sprites, hell, I had a sprite comic for a while! But let's be fucking serious, they would re-use Rondo and SotN sprites and cut as many corners as they could. Get over that nostalgia, god dammit!

Nostalgia aside, have you played a good 3D CV? I haven't... I'm really not a purist, it's just 2D is all they've proven themselves in so far.

I actually liked Curse of Darkness and Lords of Shadow, so I'm probably in the minority.

Well, I mostly played SotN and CotM so I'm not a diehard CV fan, but to me CV as a 3D action platformer is like XCom as an FPS or Final Fantasy as a TPS. I tried LoS but just didn't feel it. It had nothing that drew me to CV before.
Still, I agree that if they do 2D again, they will reuse every sprite they can. The HD multiplayer one was... easily forgotten, IMO.
