Castlevania is not even released and GamesRadar is already comparing games to it! Not only in the "Is it better than..." section, but they mention CV like 3 times in the review... weird huh?
Of course I will buy both games at the same time - Both are refreshing new games that are not defined by space marines, guns and brown palettes, and I love action adventure.
But CV comes first in my play list :P but after having kicked Dracula's ass, I'll be for Monkey&#...
It's because review copies run in debugg units, even retail copies could suffer from "surprise glitches" in those machines because they have different architecture. But yeah, they should have tested it before. Bad move from their part.
IGA IS NOT CASTLEVANIA CREATOR LET ALONE SINCE THE NES! HE WAS THE ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF SOTN AND PRODUCER SINCE THEN UNTIL NOW! THIS GAME IS MORE CV THAN HIS SHITTY JUDGMENT! YOU IGNORANT!
You played the demo. the demo is 15 mins long. The game is 20+ hours long. I think you don't have any criteria for saying that.
Read his last tweets, he's really, really offended bt the IGn review, just like us :P
What an unfair treat! xD I would prefer 1000times the framerate problems to the clunky controls and lame character designs of Enslaved :P
I hope, it will be a shame if it's a bad port. However many reviews said it wasn't, or didn't mention a problem so I'm still unsure of the whole truth behind this statement.
Until watching a proper analysis. Edge, GamesTM, Akutei, 3Djuegos and a lot of sites said the porting was excellent, no differences. I just can't tust either GS or IGN or GT reviews, they were biased against the game, they nitpicked too many things and, clearly, invented/exaggereated some.
No single letter of that review can be taken seriously. NOT A SINGLE ONE.
Somehow I think Taliban won't be happy when they get to see them getting slaughted in this game...
Here's where

No Shit Sherlock!
Let's wait 'til the next gen and make this list again.
I bet SOTC will be there again :P (Not that I like it too much, but community seems to)
THAT'S THE REAL CASTLEVANIA CONVENTION! I don't know why this reviewer forgot about the METROID in the METROIDvania >.< This is real Castlevana moron!Go play before Symohony of the NIght, THERE ARE 9 GAMES BEFORE IT!
Sorry
They said the same in the PS3 review. It was wrong, the whole review was wrong.
Not CVish enough because of items? THAT'S BECAUSE CV DIDN'T HAVE ITEMS BEFORE THE THENTH INSTALLEMENT.
And this is FAR FROM A FLOP. THIS IS JUST IGN.
The game has a 89 360 Metascore and 86 in PS3... THAT's A LOT!! =D
Gotta love Gamecritics =P . I seriously don't understand a single of their reviews, they do think games are movies, they rate them like movies.
Not saying this game deserves anything more, I'll buy it next week along with Castlevania, but the review parameters are just.. wrong.
But why was it on the 3DS and not in the next hi-end Nintendo Machine? =(
Did we caused this? O.o
The average is very damaged by the cutscene framerate, however gameplay fps is rock solid 30fps. and the demo is from June 2010 (E3) so i have faith things got fixed since then =)
