The Quick 15: Castlevania: Harmony Of Despair
Castlevania: Harmony of Despair was released on Xbox Live Arcade today, and if you're wondering how a six-player co-op Castlevania game works, you're in luck. We've captured 15 minutes of gameplay footage from the second and third levels, including the boss battles. Our group of six included a few veterans as well as a couple of guys who were playing the game for the first time. (That may explain some of the unnecessary jumping and their inability to do more than one point of damage.)
It's a fun game, especially when you round up a group of friends. If you're a lonely-guy gamer, however, you may want to check out the demo before plunking down the 1,200 points.
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.
