Maybe it's out of respect to Gamefreak that they don;t want to touch it (or some contract obligation). I've asked myself the same question many times over the years.
Only $11.99 at amazon, today only.
I'm sure Xenoblade and Last Story will be localised. Sin & Punishment 2 is being localised, confirmed ages ago. Disaster came to Europe, you're not missing much. Captain Rainbow, no company would localise. Fatal Frame 4 had other issues. Reginleiv is still possible, imo, though if it's not @ E3 then not. If they bring it I hope they add a ton of improvements, as fun as it looked it was certainly lackluster in many ways. So, it's not that bad. They're even bringing us Samurai Warriors 3 and add online multiplayer on top, which it didn't have.

Luckily all the missions are extremely easy!
From GS impressions of Castlevania trailer, YES!
As far as combat and general action goes, Lords of Shadow bears some resemblance to the the God of War games, and that's certainly not a bad thing. Gabriel's combat cross functions as a whip (a great relief to long-time Castlevania fans) that enables him to produce up to 40 different kind of combination attacks that are unlocked as you progress through the game. Within these combinations, there seem to be attacks that are stronger than others. For example, one of Gabriel's ranged attacks is great for dealing with a great number of enemies just outside of his immediate area, but these attacks are weaker because of their added reach. Naturally, Gabriel also has access to the classic secondary weapons of the Castlevania franchise--we got a peak at the holy water as well as the dagger, but there will be more and it's worth mentioning that all secondary items can be upgraded in some manner. Gabriel also has access to a light and dark magic system, and while we got a brief glimpse of it in action, we don’t quite know how it functions, just yet.
But we do know that platforming will also be a big part of the Lords of Shadow experience. In quite a few scenes, we saw Gabriel taking long leaps across enormous chasms. We also saw him using the combat cross to scale objects and repel down walls. All of this comes in handy when you have opportunities to explore the environments and find hidden areas that may contain useful items you can use later. Some of these items may prove to be quite useful when battling some of the boss characters known as Titans. As you can imagine, the Titans are massive creatures--so massive that Gabriel has to scale them to find their weak points, which he has to smash in order to take these Titans down. If that sounds a little familiar, it should--the sequence Konami showed looked quite similar to the way the Colossi are defeated in Shadow of the Colossus, and it actually looked pretty cool to see that kind of gameplay in such a detailed setting.
Surprisingly, Lords of Shadow also seems to have a fairly strong puzzle solving element to its gameplay. The puzzles in the game range from fairly straightforward physical puzzles, such as where Gabriel has to use his dash move to light up a series of panels beneath his feet, to some that require a little more brain power--like the puzzle that requires you to line up a series of mirrors to properly reflect a beam of light. It's not clear just how often these puzzles appear, but from all indications, these occur when Gabriel needs a specific item, like a key to a particular room.
OMG I can't wait for this game.
Dear Konami,
The new Rush'n Attack game looks like shit.
Love,

Listen to Wu-Tang and watch Kung-Fu
Yeah, Castlevania has platforming, now we need flying Medusa heads and a clock tower.
You can't be called Castlevania without plummeting to your doom while platforming, because of the flying Medusa heads. You just can't.
Players will also see references to the iconic between-stage maps from 8 and 16 bit Castlevania titles throughout Lords' 50 levels. In a nod to the post-Rondo Metroidvania direction of Symphony of the Night and its successors, stages can be revisited at any time for a completion percentage of up to %200.6 (and if that doesn't make sense to you, then you likely won't care). While it's hard to say for sure without an actual opportunity to play the game, it does seem like Konami's caution is paying off for the series impending resurrection later this year.
I love this game already. On the GS interview they said this game started as a remake of the original Castlevania but changed it to so it can reach a new audience. There will be a ton of easter eggs for fans of the series.
Oh man Castlevania Lord of Shadows sounds and looks awesome. The battles with the Titans should be pretty wild. Very cool to hear some things like platforming, upgradeing weapons, able to get 200.6%, classic Castlevania tunes, etc. I'm so pumped for this game.
Woo hoo!!! Gears 3 in April!!! I can't wait to see the footage on Monday now. Oh man though it's going to be a hell of a 1 year wait.
