    Reverie only lasts a couple of hours, and the motion comic cutscenes are a little disappointing. Still, Castlevania fans won't want to miss it -- even in spite of its quasi-cliffhanger ending.

Anyways a few days ago I watched the first trailer of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 and I got pretty excited about this sequel. Since the prices of the DLCs Reverie and Resurrection were reduced last week I thought I could give them a chance but it was a waste of money: No CGs, almost no new enemies and boring cut scenes. I was expecting more of the plot and about how the history should continue. Even the promotional price for Playstation Plus members is way to much for such a bad DLC. By the way do not try Resurrection, it is even worse than Reverie!… Full Review »

I would almost dare say it is useless. The only good thing about it is knowing a bit (and I must emphasize: a BIT) more about Gabriel's end. This chapter is short, too much heavy on plataforming and puzzling and has very little appeal to those looking for a good fight. For a full price of 10 dollars, I felt robbed. It is worth 4,99 (maybe 6,99), not a cent more. Lazy work that makes me feel very concerned about this recent (rising) DLC industry. They better make up for it with next downloadable content. But, now that I have learned my lesson, I'll not buy them right away. I'll first wait for some reviews. Sorry, MercurySteam, I'll won't be able to trust you blindly with any other DLC, after this.… Full Review »
