Anyone pick up Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance yet?

SNK4EVER · Sep 18, 2002

Just wondering, as it is finally available in English (hopefully some Engrish is in there too)! I picked it up this afternoon, but more than likely will not be able to play it until the weekend...doesn't matter too much as I've played the hell out of the japanese version. Anyway, good gaming to all who have picked this gem up!

RiotoftheBlood · Sep 18, 2002

I thought the release was Friday. Shit! Ah well, what can you do.

SNK4EVER · Sep 18, 2002

Go and get it, NOW!!! You know you have to have it Kevin!

Spike Spiegel · Sep 18, 2002

If my stupid gameboy advance ever get back to me damn it all to hell. I'm getting pretty pissed how long this is taking! I'll be buying it for sure!

I got mine at EB Gameworld and they price matched it to Target who is 22.99 as well. Sweet Castlevania goodness.

I can if you need me to. I would expect the money up front, however... and shipping too.

Got mine back when it came out in Japan (Cencerto of the Midnight sun). Great game, and getting EVERYTHING is very rewarding!

Just picked it up today. I should've shopped around instead of picking it up from work as it sounds like some of you guys got it for cheaper than what I paid for it WITH employee discount applied :confused:

I'll charge you how much it costs. I'm not here to make a buck. Austrailia? I would have to find out, but if you're really interested, mail me.

Cool, check your mail!

I picked mine up yesterday. Kinda wished I had known that Target was selling it for so much cheaper, oh well. I haven't been able to play it much yet (been busy), but so far, I like the gameplay, but the music really took a dive from Circle of the Moon.

Well, for super mega slow (and cheap) it's about $6. I have done business from Australia a few times before. If you want it to you with ANY kind of speed, it's going to be about $14. My email's the same as this site says: spikespiegel@insightbb.com

I got CV:HoD today, and I'm already through over 40% of the first castle. The Graphics have improved BIG TIME since the release of CV:CotM. My only gripe is of course, the music. it just plain sucks. For god sakes...what the fuck was konami thinking when they composed this sound track? I dunno, maybe the music will grow on me. But, that's a small gripe which can be easily overlooked. I love the vibrant colors used in this game. The enemies are easier to spot, the areas are varied nicely too, AND, the whip is exactly like the one from CV:4! =P

If you haven't gotten this game yet, GO GET IT...WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU WAITING FOR? THE SPIRIT TO MOVE YOU? DIVINE MOVEMENT? GO GET IT NOW!

ONLY AT THE NEOSTORE! j\k

What's with everyone's beef with the music. Is it THAT bad? What's bad about it? Quality? Does it sound like Gameboy? Are the tunes themselves ass? Or both? Can I download some mp3s of them anywhere?

Spike

brentsg · Sep 19, 2002

I read a Konami interview somewhere that they sacrificed the music to improve the graphics that much.

Well, i think it is all stuff that has been used in other games, so the compositions themselves are no problem. it is just that the music itself sounds all tinny...more like something for the original gameboy. i don't think i would have minded it so much if CotM hadn't shown us what the GBA soundchip is capable of first.
