Castlevania: Lord of shadow completed

Bought the Japanese version some time back, I even write a post on it when it arrived. I took a pretty long time to complete this game lol. Although this game is released last year, I didn't know or watch the ending on youtube until I completed it.

I was surprised by the ending that the hero become Dracula instead after saving his land. However, there are 2 subsequent add-on (Reverie and Resurrection) for the game after the last battle of Lord of Shadows, it is to know how Gabriel Belmont become Dracula which corresponds to the ending of the game first part. The 2 add on can be purchase on the Playstation Network. Both parts is pretty short and the walkthrough can be found at youtube.

Note: From what I know, this storyline is completely new and bears no links to the original 

          castlevania series.

Below is the full story (Credits to the individual uploader for their clips):

Castlevania Lord of Shadows Japanese Limited Edition

As mentioned previously, I had been wanting to get this game for some time. But I was kinda waiting for the Japanese version though since I felt that the game sounds cooler with Japanese. Sadly, the pricing is kinda steep.

By chance, I was browsing through Play-asia website and I saw this offer on the game. Moreover, it is the limited edition package with the same pricing as the normal one. Therefore, I felt that it is more worthwhile now to buy this game.

I placed the order with a fee for a tracking courier. The package arrived within 2 days, that is pretty fast! And I recommend adding small fee so that you can track the parcel to give you a peace of mind. Otherwise using the FOC shipping may take up to 2 weeks and there is a risk that the package might be lost. Finally, the Japanese version doesn't have English subs, only Japanese Subs. How i wish i could choose English or Japanese subs though.

Below is the unboxing video and some pics of the limited edition package.
