Castlevania

I believe so, but it's been a while since I've played C:AoS, so I can't say for sure.

Yup. I thought it was alluded to in C:AoS.

 

I was a huge fan of Castlevania 1, 2, and 3 (my favorite of which was Castlevania 2. It was my first RPG! ). In fact, I think it's safe to say that the Castevania games were my favorite games on the original Nintendo. I played number 4 on the SNES but never got into it enough to ever want to buy or beat it. I haven't played another Castevania game since then. Are any of the ones that came out after 4 any good?

 

Will it work with the new Harmony / Aria combo cartidge?

 

Definetly! There's Symphony of the Night on the PS1, Lament of Innocence and Curse of Darkness on the PS2 and a couple of Gameboy Advance and DS titles that are really good.

I've just beaten Curse of Darkness and I'm still working on beating the Trevor mode on Dawn of Sorrow.

 

i love the different modes they give you to play in. and yes, i'd have to say Symphony of the night is most deffinately worth it if you can find the means of picking one up. it's so choice.

so, last night i fought an iron golem in aria of sorrow. goodness gracious me, i must've fought that guy for an hour and a half straight. you can't use any attacks on him that take away any more than 1 hp at a time and the guy has 9999, which is more than any other character or boss in the entire game. and what did i get for beating him? NOTHING! well, nothing save the satisfaction of being able to move on to the next room and turn the game off for a few hours. but yeah, that went on forever. but after i figured out that i couldn't do much to him, i just sat up in the corner and kept capping him in the face with my handgun.

 

naw dude...the best Castlevania is CASTLEVANIA SYMPHONY OF THE NIGHT....for playstation

 

that's what i said.

 

Dude, use the Killer Mantle soul.

 

ha! yes! i just found that out this afternoon. my goodness, i went and killed him like thirty times for a sense of self satisfaction. plus i scored his soul too. but man oh man, did i ever want vengance on that bastard.

 

Konami just announced that it's re-releasing both Aria of Sorrow and Harmony.... in one cart for the GBA. A two for one deal.

 

Oh, I love Castlevania. The music, the level designs, the crazy boss battles... It's an amazing game series.

I love all the 2D games (this is a series that should always be in 2D). So far, I've only managed to beat Symphony of the Night and Super Castlevania IV, though I did get the "bad" endings on Aria of Sorrow and Dawn of Sorrow.

 

I've liked all the Castlevania games that were on the GBA, so I'd recommend all three of them plus Dawn of Sorrow for the DS.

I'm actually pretty excited for the new Castlevania game coming out for the DS: Portrait of Ruin. That is looking pretty nice.
