That game had an ongoing community for a shockingly long time. It's probably not so lively now but a ways back there'd be runs to be had on the weekends if no other time. And then they let some garbage western studio ruin the franchise and made pachinko machines. :'( BloodStained looks cool as fuck so far at least, and I think I do detect some snark in a game whose title is abbreviated to BS.
Its such a shame that so much classic IP was outsourced to Western devs who butchered the shit. Although while writing this, whats the actual body count?
- Bionic Commando Rearmed was awesome
- Bionic Commando 2009 was GOTY 2009 (RIP Grin)
- Silent Hill was out of ideas I guess and they paid off some US dev installments
- Castlevania went down the total ass-wrong route and made some BS God of War clones. Never played them but they looked awful. I still think making more IGAvanias and porting the DS games to everything (XBL,PSN, Steam) wouldve been a better move.
- I'm playing the 2014 Strider game atm and they fucked this up I think
- Devil May Cry had a western developed game, was it any good? I just dont trust a non-japanese person with that type of game.
- Capcom killed Resident Evil by themselves, so fuck them
- Sumo Digital is an A+++ studio and made kick ass Sega racing games
Eh maybe it's just Castlevania that got the Shaft (pun intended). Konami seem like the biggest losers of the AAA revolution anyhow (although MGSV Ground Zeroes was fucking killer and I'm sure Phantom Pain is sweet too)
uhhhh any more?
