I haven't had the heart to cover much of the more recent news about Castlevania Judgment. It's all just so dire, from the laughable redesigns to the poor E3 gameplay. Still, I had thoroughly underestimated just how hard Castlevania Judgment could fail. With the game out in stores now, movie clips and new information about the game's story are flooding the 'net. Most of it is the harmlessly stupid fluff you expect from a crossover dream-match fighting game, but then... then there's Maria's storyline, which is basically... basically...
*sigh*
It's basically about Maria's enthusiasm for large breasts. That is, apparently, the best plot for Maria that Konami could come up with.
How do you publish something this freaking sad and the utterly excellent Order of Ecclesia in the same franchise, in the same quarter?
