If you like the God of War games then you will love Castlevania: Lords of Shadow! Great story, amazing effects and some cool boss fights! It's even got some very good voice acting from Patrick Stewart and Robert Carlyle! Yes, Begbie gives his voice to the knight who fights against all kinds of evil things. Patrick Stewart tells the story with his deep interesting voice. Play the game! I'm sure you will not be disappointed.

As a small studio Mercury Steam, one would expect a full of things but not that! A masterpiece of the end of 2010, controlled and enjoyable gameplay with borrowed references as: God of War, Devil May Cry, Shadow of the colossus, tomb raider, prince of persia ... but sometimes I find it a stand out of the game by giving us a variety of environments and in the chapters, the good will of Mercury Steam is to be commended. A long game, taking a staging at the top, an interesting story to follow with good twists on the end, Dante boss and all different in the way of killing them, even if the cross fighting is a bit rigid and not many combos can only applaud the effort of mercury steam with a difficult to master gameplay and nervous like a DMC game mechanics push and run a background! The purist fans of the Castlevania series (which is not my case) can be n'apreciront not forget that this game completely mind castlevanien to push us closer to the game beat'em all and I think it 'is a good thing. A unique fantasy world.

Spectacular gameplay and graphics, very glad I bought!

Castlevania: Lords of Shadows is somewhat of a reboot of the series, so it's easy for new players to get into the game and old fans to get reacquainted. By far the best 3D Castlevania game, you have your familiar whip with a lot of moves to execute, unlock, and also combine with light or dark magic for stronger effects. The story is quite compelling, with a well written script and great voice acting from actors such as Patrick Stewart and Robert Carlyle and like previous Castlevania games, this one also shines in the audio and graphic department. I highly recommend this game to all Castlevania fans.

Excellent Game ! graphics and background are amazing. And the old school gamers will find a something special more ;) Only thing do now : GO BUY IT !! It worths its price !!! Happy Gaming !

Despite the name it bears, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow is an action / adventure game that draws on both hands from triple-A titles like, such as God of War and Uncharted, offering the player action and a relentless pace of the game very strong. Thanks to the excellent graphics engine and the remarkable technical achievement, the title manages to immerse ourselves in his dark world, populated by monstrous creatures to defeat, but also allows us to enjoy breathtaking scenery, thanks a particularly successful art design. Despite the lack of real innovation and the presence of small imperfections on the side, we would like to say that MercurySteam has managed to pack an absolutely valid, that deserves to join the collection of any fan who respects and, more generally, lovers of well-developed games.

this is without doubts the best castlevania ever! the difficulty level can be a bit annoing but still a Great game!

Nice action-adventure game, mechanics are similar to God of War 3. Graphic it's a 7/10, longevity is outstanding, about 15 hours only to complete the game one time.

I consider the best game of 'years. Castlevania is a series that continued for twenty years. Many already know who made the history of video games. Castlevania: Lords of Shadow is a rebot the series that is based on the first Nintendo video game "Castlevania NES 1986". In this release the creative genius, H. Kojima (Metal Gear series creator already solid and Zone of the Enders) and executive producer of Castlevania los. giving new life to this epic series. By creating a real masterpiece. The Castlevania series is a fantasy game Action Game, Hack / Slash. Full of "cinematics" and strong scenes. seem to see a movie. The work in graphics and details of each item in the game is amazing. even after completing the main campaign of the game, it's nice to replay it, completing challenges.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow is a very nice game with great and HUGE bosses you also have a cute gothic ambiance and surrounding a lot of different enemies and you'll have to learn how to beat each species, and it sometimes is a REAL challenge! the scenario is decent, you only discover the truth at the end of the game the hardness of the game constantly increases, you'll die many times! don't worry, Castlevania is definitively not the kind of game you'll finish quickly, even more if you try to collec the artefacts, and magic points to become stronger you have to buy combos, new moves and use magic to improve Gabriel (the hero) is charismatic , you will love him and his story is kind of original and panting you will end the game in not less than 20 hours, even more if you end the game in the hardest way the musics and sounds are great, always linked to what is happening to Gabriel some enigmas and EPIC moments , you just have to think and be logic! if you liked Devil May Cry, Shadow of the Colossus, God of War, you will LOVE this game, sometimes make me think of Tomb Raider and Uncharted as well at some point. As a conclusion Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, is a great game and it was a huge suprise to find it soooo cheap on zavvi!
