Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 synopsis revealed

Wondering just awaits Dracula in Lords of Shadow 2? Well, now we know:

In Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, the origin of Dracula and his legendary connection with the Belmonts was revealed. In Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, fans can expect thrilling new twists and challenges. In this shocking conclusion to the Lords of Shadow saga, Dracula returns once again, weakened and yearning for release from his immortal bonds. Facing a new and powerful threat, the vampire lord must reacquire his old powers – and only his castle holds the key. However, the famed Belmont clan also seek his ultimate destruction.

Dracula to be the main character in Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 Producer David Cox has confirmed that we’ll be playing as a Dracula (Gabriel Belmont) in the sequel. Obviously as Dave has said, that means vampire powers. I still want some whip action though, it’s just not the same without a whip.  

Each Resident 6 campaign is just shy of RE 5’s length

Resident Evil 6 is huge. I don’t just mean it’s going to be a big AAA title, I mean in content Resident Evil 6 is a beast. Packed with three separate campaigns; Chris, Leon and Jake AKA Wesker Jr., Capcom expects each co-op campaign to come in just shy of Resident Evil 5’s complete length. That’s a HUGE ass game! We’ll be posting more details on RE6 next week.

Sony to bring PS2/PSone backwards compatablity to Vita and PS3 through Gaikai streaming service

First and third-party games to be streamed to hardware

Sony’s rumoured cloud gaming deal with Gaikai will allow current-generation hardware to play PlayStation 2 and PSone games via a streaming solution. [GI]


According to sources, the service will offer first-party games and be open to third-party publishers to sell back catalogue to players. The partnership is likely to be announced at E3 next week as part of Sony’s conference on Monday.

As someone who has used both OnLive and Gaikai, I’m not a fan of this. It’s inherent with lag and feels like your playing a video of someone playing a game. But I suppose some folks will get some use of this, even though from the sound of it, it will be on a per title basis and not a Netflix like deal. Expect more details next week. What are your thoughts on bringing back PS2 games via streaming?
