Replay – Castlevania: Lament Of Innocence
On a previous Castlevania-heavy episode of Replay, we played through the opening 10 minutes of Lament of Innocence and were intrigued, but didn't hit a single monster with a whip, so we decided to correct that error by returning to the game this week.
Lament of Innocence released in 2003 on PlayStation 2 and it marked Castlevania's second attempt at a 3D game after the underwhelming Nintendo 64 games (which you can watch us play here and here!). It maintains the formula Koji Igarashi established with his previous Castlevania titles, but adapts it surprisingly faithfully to a 3D setting. Join Andrew Reiner, Suriel Vazquez, and me as we explore Dracula's castle one more time, but probably not one last time.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
