Sunday Comics: Dead Island Never one to rest on their Castlevania laurels, Konami and crew readying two new Dracula slaying adventures, this time on the platform everyone can agree on: the mobile phone. The previously mentioned Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow showing at the Leipzig Games Convention is simply a mobile phone remake of the Game Boy Advance release of the same name. However, Konami also announced it would be bringing an all-new original Castlevania, known as Castlevania: Order of Shadows, to mobile carriers AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon Networks, among others, this September.

You may remember the USK revealing the name of the next World of Warcraft expansion, Wrath of the Lich King, issuing a rating on the then-officially untitled expansion pack. Today, the USK listed new ratings for three trailers scheduled to be shown at Leipzig: Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, Silent Hill Orphan, and Metal Gear Solid 4—all, strangely enough, for the PC.
