Castlevania Portrait of Ruin OST - Crucifix Held Close

[ritzytails]

Yay Maria!

[speyeker]

This is, hands down, my favourite song from Portrait of Ruin, and one of my favourites from the entire series.

[obyinlondon]

I didn't know this wasn't an original! Well, still an awesome tune.

[Trapster2]

I hear several different Castlevania themes in this. One from the arcade game too.

[Soifoncaptain22]

Am I the only person with the strange urge to break candles and stuff thinking I'll get money when I'm Richer, Maria, Stella and Lorietta. It must be a habit.

[RagingLunacy]

Gotta love Maria, nothing more fun than sending pigeons/doves to whack the butt of evil creatures and demons. >:3

[sor3999]

My favorite track in this game and it's not even an original to this game. :-P

[Seydaschu]

I really wish were Charlotte was more useful. The game was supposed to have two main characters, but it really feels like Jonathan's game and she's his sidekick. She should've gotten more creative elemental books, and should've been able to charge spells while moving.

Ecclesia shows us how to make a fun mage character. Being able to constantly use your good spells and sub-weapons by treating them just like normal attacks makes you want to use them more. That's why OoE is my favorite DS one.

alucard appear in this game?

[TheSauron21]

@darkbladeshinobi2

yes alucard spear is in this game. You get it from Eric!

[darkbladeshinobi2]

HAUNTED CASTLE!!!!!!!!,the music of first castlevania

[Drunkencrono]

Great song. Yeah it's on youtube a billion times already, but thanks for putting an interesting video to it.

[jmartgonzales]

i want to work in konami and make a castlevania game. i have many ideas you know...

[MKFusionhelper]

Man! I wish Soma Cruz wan in Portrait of Ruin! That would've been freakin' awesome if he was playable in POR! At least he's playable in DoS.

[MKFusionhelper]

I meant to say "was".

[Erghest]

"Richiter" was already enough of an awkward, unneccesary extra mode. We didn't need any more. Soma has his place.

[Supermaster4567]

It was very neccesary.

[Erghest]

No, it wasn't. You already had Sisters mode and the additional Axe Armor mode. There was no reason for richter belmont and maria rennard to show up. Especially maria.

Richters appearance in the game is justified, but having him appear outside of the whips memory, in Dracula's castle circa 1940, is not.

[linkms1777]

awesome this game is the best next to aria of sorrow and circle of the moon.

[Doomsdaywarrior]

Dude, how the hell do you become the axe armour? I'm missing an item aren't I?

[LazloEnKuldes]

No, just kill 1000 Old Axe Armors to unlock the mode.

[Doomsdaywarrior]

Damn, that's alot of axe armours...

[JPlayah16]

@LazloEnKuldes You can do that?? Oh, AWESOME!

[LegoLover33]

@LazloEnKuldes Wow, there's a lot of secrets in Castlevania: PoR, right?

[MetalMazta]

My first thought after hearing the first couple of notes was: "holy shit, they really put a remix sorta thing of the clock tower theme from Aria of Sorrow (one of my favorite castlevania songs) in there, awesome". but then i realized it's a totally different song and ended up a bit disappointed xD

[rodrigtf]

This song's also on the first level of Haunted Castle, that really difficult (and badly made) Castlevania game for the arcade made back in the 80's.

The song is great though, and so is Portrait of Ruin.

[mruppel2]

truly, but is a classic. Castlevania is supreme on the current games

[GenyaArikado]

@rodrigtf is this song only from haunted castle an portrait of ruin?

[rickg22]

How did you record that video? Emulator, video input? Please msg me!

[3X3SkyDo3X3]

Very nice video :) like it a lot, 5/5 ;)

[abrahamWCE]

Hey, why you don´t use Stella?

[LazloEnKuldes]

I really don't use Stella that much, I only use her when Loretta can't kill monsters, which are those who have resistance to her attacks. When I was recording the Sister's play through for this video, there were parts where I used Stella but it just so happens that I weren't able to use those parts where she was the one I was controlling in this video, so, that's basically it.

[eikemz]

ohh.. its the walking grand cross
