New Castlevania Judgment screenshots ... look nice!

Gothic Girl | July 09, 2008 | Screenshots | Wii 
Here is the first batch of screenshots and concept-art for Konami's upcoming fighting game Castlevania Judgement. They sure look pretty, though am I the only one getting a very "Final Fantasy Dissidia-ish" vibe from the graphics? The characters just ain't the same without Ayai Kojima's designs. Nontheless, check them out ...

    The character designer this go around is Takeshi Obata, of Death Note fame.

      ...Ok, I'm interested in this Castlevania now. ^^ DN ftw!

      At first I didn't like the idea of this 'fighter,' looks like Dissidia to me, but heck, the characters look decent, fan of the series, might get it after all.

      Nice, his artwork is awesome. God, I hope everyone does this Series Fighter Thing now. We might see a Marvel Vs. Capcom Sequel in the Near future. Now, Ryuk-Style Dracula, plix.

      The designs here very much remind me of the stuff I saw in his "blanc et noir" artbook. I think it fits in with the game's style.

      As for the game itself, I'll hold judgment until I see it in motion. Has this been confirmed for an appearance at E3?

    Well that explains why I thought Simon looked a hell of alot like the DN characters. XD

    I still much prefer Ayami Kojima's work. No-one can get that sort of detail in outfits. (I'm a little disappointed Alucard doesn't have his awesome SotN costume. He looks like some sort of Sephiroth/Ansem hybrid in this game).

    Unlockable Costumes are still a possibility, GG.

      I hope so. That'd be awesome seeing some of the spiffy Kojima-style outfits in 3D.

    Wow, the game seems to be shaping up well. But the only real question I have is whether it will use gimmicky motion controls or be classic controller enabled.

    Alucard looks like a little girl and Dracula has eight golden nipples.

    Fail.
