Castlevania- Lords of Shadow
Due to complications of ripping the video off of YouTube, I have decided to post the video I was going to use and explain it with text rather then a voice over, unfortunately. Castlevania is one of the world's most renowned video game series across many platforms starting in the early days on the original Nintendo. The creators of Castlevania have done an outstanding job on staying on top of the crowd with their visual effects. If you are familiar with the Castlevania games, you automatically know that the game will have deep, dark, and eerie imagery and orchestration to aid the story lines. The newest addition to the series is Castlevania -Lords of Shadow. With the name of the game, "Shadow" helps the audience understand the imagery of the game even before buying it. The movement in the game is fantastic. The character's primary movement is his legs, his binary being the arms and body, and his tertiary movement could be explained through his attacks. For the most part, the brightness of the imagery is very dark. The creators have manipulated the scenes accordingly to the meaning and setting of the game. The use of shadows in this game help the imagery to have a depth to them also. The imagery itself seems to have a high saturation and a manipulated hue to give the game the dark. Needless to say, the colors incorporated throughout this game gives the player a slightly realistic feel.
