Castlevania: Harmony of Despair

This isn't a Metroidvania

A lot of people in this thread seem to be under the impression that it is

Also reviews are throwing around SOTN comparisms. I just checked out the youtube video and it doesn't look like traditional Castlevania or Metroidvania, but a dodgy halfway house between the two.

I can't believe there's no pause in the single player. AND there's a time limit on each stage.

wow, no checkpoints, no pauses and time limits - that's my kind of evening entertainment

I wasn't under the impression that it was a Metroidvania. Just looks gash from what I've seen so far. I hate games that don't let you pause - I think it's one of the reasons I've yet to actually play Demons Souls.

Yeah, but Demon's Souls thankfully allows you to have some breathing room to have a quick wank or something. I can't see that being the case for this piece of shizer.
