Where was that?

It's an ability that helps fill in the unexplored map around you and shows you where hidden shoot-able blocks are and stuff like that. Has a limited energy meter though.
Looks fine, like a less annoying X-Ray vision and replaces those Map stations some of the games have.

The melee counter thing seems kinda lazy but the rest of the game looks pretty good.

Hereby it is manifest that during the time men live without a common power to keep them all in awe, they are in that condition which is called war; and such a war as is of every man against every man.

Scan pulse also uses the same Aeon resource as other abilities so it's not like it's a free find all secrets button.

Yeah it looks like they're giving you a lot of new tools to play with but putting an energy limit on them. They're showing off quite a bit of this actually.


I can't believe they're letting you actually annotate the map finally.

Also, Metroid Prime. It was apparently looking really bad until Nintendo went to Texas, cancelled everything else Retro was fooling around with, and forced them to make a good game.

Everything else Retro was fooling around with being: a CEO and founder of a startup company that was more interested in riding that sweet sweet dot com money than actually showing up, putting cameras everywhere, getting obsessive over details like how long employees took for lunch, embezzlement, and unofficial porn hosting on company servers.

Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

Isn't Lords of Shadow a separate continuity from the previous Castlevania games?

Yeah.

Lords of Shadows has Gabriel Belmont eventually turn into Dracula after fighting Jean Luc Picard and killing Satan.

Alucard is Gabriels secret son Trevor Belmont, who you play as for the first part of the game. Dracula mortally wounds him, then realizes he nearly killed his secret son and makes him into a vampire so he has a damily.

Then 20ish years later Trevor's own son Simon comes looking for his dad.

It's sakamoto so I'm not excited if he really did have anything to do with this title because who knows what kinda stuff he'd try to retcon in. I just don't want them to gently caress up samus anymore.

They're showing the entire Samus section on stream right now. The full game pulls a MGS2 on you and you play as Adam for the rest of the game.

Well gee, I can't believe that a Konami funded, cash grab portable interquel tie in to a man game would not have the same kind of budget, care and attention to mechanics as a Nintendo overseen 2D Metroid game remake.
