I almost bought this game too...
what do people (and by people I mean spalding) know about this?
[Nov 11,2003 9:14pm - moran ""]
My brother already beat it, mainly because he had two days off of work and couldn't stop playing it. I just played it for 2 hours, its fucking awesome.

Dude who are you? I have never seen you post here and you are posting all over saying "where's the metal" and shit.

Forget Castlevania, The Hobbit is coming out soon! It will be better than pancakes which are better than sex.

Castlevania has only had 3 crappy games in its entire exsistence... the two N64 games and one regular gameboy one. thats about it.

And even those aren't terrible, they're just bad compared to Castlevania standards.

I just got a $25 gift cert from a manager here.

Ok, as far as series' go, the Megaman series is by far the best. 42 games and only 3 suck (Battle Network, Battle Network 2, Megaman Soccer). That means that 13/14 of the games kick ass. A close 2nd is obviously the Zelda series of course, which has 14 games and 13 suck (13/14 again, assuming that the ones I havn't played are good, which they probably are). But I digress. Megaman is the best...ever...period(dis ting->.)

you forgot X7, battle network 3, and the battle network for gaycube... those three are subpar...

Oh, haha I have never played it, I just assumed it sucked, but I will take your word for it.

You also forgot that Mega Man X 3-7 sucked. Mega Man Soccer is fucking awesome, it is the only soccer game I have ever liked. I love Mega Man, but Castlevania still kicks its ass. Castlevania 64 wasn't great, but it was good, unlike the bad Mega Man games that just sucked.

Haha, I shouldn't really be saying that Megaman is better then Castlevania, cause the only Castlevania game I have ever played was the origional one for NES and that was probably for about 20 minutes 9 or 10 years ago.
[Nov 12,2003 7:39pm - moran ""]
Yeah, you're messing with some pros here.
[Nov 12,2003 11:56pm - thegreatspaldino ""]
only the original?! GO OUT AND BUY CASTLEVANIA: SYMPHONY OF THE NIGHT FOR THE ORIGINAL PLAYSTATION... THATS THE BEST ONE EVER. all the GBA ones are amazing, castlevania 4 is amazing, 1,2,3... all amazing, 5 is ok but not as good as its pc counterpart Rondo of Blood... oh and about X4... X4 is really good, X5 was good , X6 was ok, X7 = poop, the Megaman Zero games for GBA... SO hard but SO good. now in terms of music... its like a tie. the X series has always had great music (especially the original) and Castlevania has always had good music. come to think of it... the megaman power fighters games are good and the music in the second is really good. i know too much about games :(

Ever play Castlevania Dracula X? Its one of my favorite ones, but its impossible to find. But yeah, Castlevania music is the fucking best, especially in Symphony and Lament. Mega Man music sounds like Children of Bodom. I haven't played the Zero games yet, I'm gonna have to pick those up. I'm with you on the knowing too much about games. Someone should put together a video game Jeopordy for us, I think it would be a good match.
[Nov 20,2003 2:42pm - the_reverend ""]
I bought it last night.
the graphics in the fight scenes are a little silly looking...
but it seems ok.
[Nov 20,2003 4:27pm - moran ""]
Yeah, the graphics aren't what they could be from Konami, but the game is great. The hidden mode after you beat is awesome too.

[Nov 27,2003 2:00am - the_reverend ""]
I've been playing it for like 2 hours now...
it reminds me of devil may cry meets castlevania.
[Nov 27,2003 2:14am - moran ""]
Yeah, kinda. How far are you?

this is the first night he's playing it he said

[Nov 27,2003 3:15am - the_reverend ""]
I killed one boss, now I'm on to the ghastly theatre or something.
[Nov 27,2003 3:18am - thegreatspaldino ""]
fact: Castlevania is the greatest game series ever

Castelvania I for Ninetendo...only game I ever beat.
[Dec 4,2003 10:47am - the_reverend ""]
I beat 2 bosses, theatre and one other
and I got 1 relic + 2 ords (blue and yellow).
what is the best weapon to use with these two orbs?
I'm using the yellow+axe right now.
for the longest time, I was rocking the cross with no orbs.
I sort of want to go back to that...
but then the blue orb+axe rocked.
yellow orb+ax = ok...
yellow orb+diamond = way too many hearts.
[Dec 4,2003 11:16am - moran ""]
I used the axe through the whole game. When you get the green orb, it's really good, I think it's in the garden. And the elemental whips are great too.
[Dec 4,2003 11:35am - the_reverend ""]
I only have the alchemy whip...
I just bought the $2000 armor before I fell asleep.
i've gotten 1 heart increase and 1 hp increase.
I think I'm missing out on some secrets.
[Dec 4,2003 2:18pm - dykeslayer ""]
Castlevania was incredible. too short sadly but worth renting and playing and beating in the 5 days you have it
[Dec 8,2003 1:58am - moran ""]
So Rev, how far are you now?
[Dec 8,2003 8:48am - the_reverend ""]
not bad.
sseing as I usually play between 3-5am.
I've beet 3 stages, got the flame whip, got the red/blue/yellow orbs.
I still only have 1 relic though.
seems like I'm missing a lot of things.
I also have to learn that I must save more often cuase I end up dying and loosing a lot all the time.
[Dec 8,2003 9:31am - moran ""]
yeah, the relics are a pain in the ass, most of them are dropped by enemies. a lot of the health things are later in the game though, and they're kinda hard to miss.
[Dec 8,2003 9:51am - the_reverend ""]
that jump attack thing rocks.
it totally blew the golum away.
[Dec 8,2003 10:26am - moran ""]
the combos get really cool once you learn the air attack.
[Dec 22,2003 5:32pm - the_reverend ""]
medussa's dead.
that vampire that looks like me is dead.
now, I need to find the ice whip
[Dec 24,2003 2:42am - the_reverend ""]
only missing 1 orb,
got 3 whips.
working on the castle towards walter now.
[Dec 24,2003 11:57am - moran ""]
Have you fought The Forgotten One yet?
[Dec 24,2003 12:09pm - the_reverend ""]
no, actually, that's where I'm going now.
I went back to get the ice hip and white orb.
[Dec 24,2003 12:18pm - moran ""]
Hes pretty tough. You need a lot of potions and the stuff that takes away poison and curse.
[Dec 24,2003 12:19pm - the_reverend ""]
that mirage skeleton thing pissed me off.
[Dec 24,2003 12:22pm - moran ""]
those things sucked.
[Dec 25,2003 3:08am - the_reverend ""]
FUCK WALTER!
he's proving hard as shit to beat.
[Dec 25,2003 3:15am - TheGreatSpaldino ""]
:tightiewhities:
[Dec 25,2003 3:28am - the_reverend ""]
walter, you are dead, you fucking fagg0t!
[Dec 25,2003 6:08pm - BornSoVile ""]
Nice I scored Castlevania: Lament of Innocence for the holiday. I have to many games I want to beat now, plus I'll get a few more at best buy tomorrow, a few greatest hits games.
