On My GBA SP and it is a fucking dream. There are so many little details I didnt even notice before on the shit GBA.

I love everything about this game. It's almost perfect Even, I think, the music is top notch. The quality of the compositions is great and memorable. Juste's theme stands up there with some of the 8 bit classic tunes. And it does remind me of playing the old Castles, like 1 and 2.

If you havent picked this fucker up yet, do so. I think it's better than Metroid fusuion, based off of the level structure alone. Fusion came off as...too easy and linear..(and I know both games are very linear, its just the way Fusion felt).

Anyways, lets discuss CASTLEVANIA.

Looking forward to Aria~~~!!!Import!

Jacko...errm, I stole it off some guy in the war room. You can look in there...the threas is still current. I'm even using the poor guys web space to host it. I am an ass. I hope he ownt mind.

Yeah. COTM did not do anything for me. It felt like the developers did not know what they were doing. Castlevania has eveloved in ways that COTM wrongfully ignored. THough, they got the difficulty right. I liked that.

HOD was a bit easy. But I had FUN, damnit, the whole fing way through.

Really!?
Nice MJ sig, been watching Fox Canada lately I see?
I know I speak for the whole message board when I say that you made no sense with that remark. WTF is that supposed to mean. Fox Canada?

MJ rapes kids for the GOOD of man kind. That's why MJ raped you that one time at neverland pedophile ranch. It was for the good of humanity. Trust me. Remember that. MJ loves you. But he thought you were clenching to much.

How do I know all this? You told me in the PMs .

Stay in school. Don't do drugs.

Now, this is something Ive never done, but should you feel you need to be gay to get a warm bowl of soup and a place to sleep, dont feel ashamed, drifty. After all, you let your shemale half fag step dad do it to you for free.

Stop Pming me for net sex, btw.

I was really disapointed by the final battle with draculas "parts" in HOD. Now the final battle in COTM was frickin' awesome but thats just my opinion.

And some people give the music in HOD a bad rap but I think that most of it is excelent.

I hate to go against the grain, but I thought except for graphics, COTM was overall more fun to play. Not putting down HOD though. I loved that game too. To me, COTM just had that extra "oumph" to make it more enjoyable.

Aren't they doing an almost-synchronized worldwide release or something? I know I've preordered the US version from Gamestop (yeah, I know, but I have a good relationship with game store workers in general).

I absolutely hate the spellbook system in HOD. The graphics are good though. Especially one room that has like , the background from the first level of Xexex.

COTM , maybe it's because i've been playing it for a long time now , i find to be better than HOD. The bosses are way better , like Camilla second form , Dragon Zombies , etc. (I also liked Death) The card system owns the spellbook one for free , And it just seemed a lot more fun.

So Rade, now that you've started digging it on the SP, what's gonna happen when you get the GBA player for the 'Cube?

Think of the beauty... aahhhhhh

One reason might be because the people who made the game said that the music wasn't good. I read somewhere that Konami said they sacrificed music for graphics. Maybe not enough space on the cart, or maybe not enough time to work on it? I dunno. It's what I read.
