  • i still dont get why shanoa has brown hair in-game

  • I thought this was the worst castlevania I've ever played.

    Fortunately, Portrait of Ruin came out to take that place.

    Also...

    Shanoa: "I will become the sword that clears away evil!"

    Sanger Zonvolt: BITCH, PLEASE.

  • Just watching the trailers, makes me jump of my bed saying "I want to freaking Play this", it looks amazing and deep, I wish the bring it to PSN as it is, then they can remake it to a 3D like CLOS, if the 3D would have as much depth as what I saw, it is going to be a blast, But I still can't wait for CLOS2

  • best 2d castlevania ever made ;]

  • 0:19 Those cloudy scenes are so slow in my DS :(

  • @TheSpektrumSP oh, why? they have that speed for me [ds lite]

  • @kcfob Yeah, but i play it in a flash card XD

  • @TheSpektrumSP so do i ;]

  • This looks gr8...... Im buying a DS and getting all three castlevania games fuk it!

  • this game would be more awesome if at least existed a whip glyph..... : P, just imagine something like whiptus, vol whiptus and melio whiptus :B

  • all of castlevania 2D games are awesome & entertaining . but all of castlvania 3D games are aweful and boring

  • I freakin' love this game beat it 3 times... 2 times normally one time on Albus mode...

  • i like playing as female characters because men heroes are overdone to the ground. I prefer cool looking females rather than sexy ones as well. If you have a problem playing as a female character, you can play almost any other game. i dont see why anyone would complain about Shanoa being the main character of this game.

  • what is the theme in the trailer????

  • A female hero? GAY

  • @JayteePhandango tru but u rather look at the dude while playing the game rather then looking at a chick?

  • @princejmye

    Well I like playing characters that resemble my gender. Which are male.

    People in MMOs who play females to LOOK at a chick while playing seems pretty low... not saying that you are.

  • @JayteePhandango i know what you mean. repect ur answer

  • @JayteePhandango and if I play Tomb Raider or Bloodrayne Im gay too ?

  • @PiPLevyy

    Have those games ever had male main characters? No. Sooooo stfu.

  • @TheAlchemystical nah, i liked this one alot more too..

  • damn...thats one big ass player sprite

  • holy crap...she uses spells!

  • RAGE,BE WILD

  • its nice, but i think dawn of sorrow will be the best for ever

  • So Shanoa is Rukia's voice eh? Rukia from bleach...Michelle Ruff played those two.Does that mean Michelle Ruff use the sexiest characters voice? :3

  • fuck ... I must get that game

  • the 3d effects in OoE where terrible, but not bad. however, i liked this bosses a little more

  • @12345Boing really? dont think the same..

  • @tenegon its not like they sucked but personally i think staying like a 2d game is better. for example that boss i dont remember his name i thin goliath was awesome but the 3d effects werent that good

  • @12345Boing i liked he 3d effects in background, reminds of the best castlevania game (SoTn)

    at least it is in my opinion..

  • @tenegon background 3d effects were actually pretty good, but i mean the bosses' 3d animations. the game was good i liked the story ^^

  • Does anybody recommend this, or should I get one of the other DS Castlevania's if they are at a lower price?

  • @SuperPoncho17

    I strongly recommend this over the other DS castlevanias.

    If you're a fan of the series, then I can tell you that this game is as good as SOTN.

    You will not regret this one.. (I bought the DS just for this game, and i dont regret it).

  • @DaTerroriZt Alright, thanks, I had kinda planned on buying this one anyways because it's lower priced and has very good review scores. This will be the first 2D Castlevania I've played, though.

  • @SuperPoncho17 I guess you should play both Order of Ecclesia and Portrait of Ruin. But give priority to this one.

  • castlevania are the best 2d`s games 

  • @DarkHawk139 side by side with metroid series

  • Wonder if they would ever consider making a PS3/360 Castlevania game with her as the protagonist. I guess it would be similar to Bayonetta huh?

  • @NiteX2 Please don't compare Shanoa to Bayonetta. Please, just don't. (No offence to any Bayonetta fans).

  • @NiteX2 Which is why it should never happen. Have U seen the latest Castlevania 3D game??

  • You danced well..

  • If you can only get one of the Castlevania games for DS, I strongly suggest you get this one. It's a bit difficult for beginner's, but hey. That's what walkthroughs and guides are for. If you can get through this game by yourself, you're sure to have one heck of a fun experience.

  • Nice but feels a bit sluggish compared to old school 2D dashing

  • theres always something minor that bugged me about almost every 2d castlevania.... walking fels ierd. i dunno but you always look like your walking slower then you are.

    i know its hardly ven a video game flaw, but lol it always bugged me ^^'

  • my favourite Castlevania NDS game 4e!!! MARVELOUS!!!

  • This was an AWESOME game.

    Similar quality to SOTN.. Beautiful game!

  • when I saw this game in Gamestop, I knew it was a good game without looking at a trailer or gameplay but, now that I saw the gameplay right now. I was correct lol

  • @PkeTwilight thanx

    

  • At 1:49 Fraken decided to make an appearance in this game knowing that he could destroy humans

  • Should I get Castlevania?

  • How to use magic?

  • @pissedandkissed Check the instruction manual or go gamefaqs.com and check the walkthroughs

  • The soundtrack in this game is the best out of all the DS Castlevania games.

  • I'm proud of myself. I beat this game with 99.7% completion ON MY OWN. I didn't look shit up. OOE is the best Castlevania since Symphony Of The Night, period.

  • crapy game...

  • @uratoko if this game is crappy why bother commenting...

  • Its always fun to play a hot female heroine role... XD

    and btw, this is the first time a female has been made the main character ever in Castlevania series since 1980s'...

  • i have all the set games of castlevania AND i love all of them

    BUT THIS ONE IS REALY HARD AND SUCK I HATE HIM

    anyway thanks for the vid

  • Comment removed

  • 3D raped gameplay

  • Absolutley shit.

  • 1:01 lol bus

  • @billybot30 :D

  • Radiance! I so luv voice acting of Shanoa

  • @SoloKazama Waves Be Wild! *smirk*

  • I don't mind the "Metroidvania" style of CV games. I just miss being able to play as a Belmont. So far Portrait of Ruin is the only game of this type that features a Belmont style hero to play as.They need to remake CV 3 in this style. Lots of exploration along with 4 playable characters......each with their own combat style.

  • @razorfett147 That sounds awesome, actually. Unfortunately I don't see that happening any time soon...

  • @razorfett147 They really need to remake Symphony of the Night for DS...they kinda screwed up the remake version for PSP (dam hard to execute moves for Alucard)...if you had played the PS1 or SEGA Saturn version, the moves were so simple to execute!

  • Comment removed

  • This game was amazing at refreshing the gameplay and story from previous castlevanias!

  • is dawn of sorrow the only decent caslevania game

  • For me The best are, 1)castlevania symphony of the nigth, 2)castlevania order of eclessia, 3)castlenaia harmony of disonace 4) castlevania aria of sorrow 5) castlevania portrit of ruin 6) super castlevania 4 7)Castlevania rondo of blood.

  • in my opinion my top 5 Castlevanias are 1st symphony of the night 2nd Order Of Ecclesia 3th Castlevania 3 4th Dawn of Sorrow and 5th Rondo Of Blood

  • I remember how epic 1:10 was when I first saw it.

    Hm...did Rusalka ever had that water hose attack at 1:59?

  • @SilentStalkerX

    Yes... Rusalka does that when you're vertical position is higher than her's...

  • for me this game surpass by far SotN, im one of the few who play ALL the gba and DS castlevania before SotN so that why i dont fall by the hype of that game

  • This music makes remember the fight with Jiang Shi, that never dies.

  • is there any whips in this game ?

  • @8589brian nah there isnt but there are alt of different weapons and magic

  • Super Castlevania IV stills the best.

  • XD she died at the end...

    But an epic trailer and an even epicer game.

  • @SilentNekro Thanks for ruining it for us...

  • @GuitarLegend327 At the end of the trailer, not the game.

  • @SilentNekro o my bad

  • She seems to run abit slow

  • Lol Alucard girlfriend But i sure she more PWNED ass than alucard

    and i think PC have a software to play nintendo DS game

  • Well... It seems we're further away from having a castlevania game like the classic NES-SNES ones... With only simon belmont going through a linear castle to fight Dracula at the end... That's Castlevania, and I'm extremely disappointed to see that Castlevania games are taking the SoTN style rather than the original Castlevania style... I can just imagine the day they will make a "castlevania 5"... But I guess that's just a dream, isn't it?

  • @JustinHirade SoTN is one of the best Castlevania games in history.Saying that games are taking its style is actually a complement.

    The classic ones were great,but the character was hard to control,the jumping was hard and the difficulty was way too much. Plus that kind of play style that you are talking about is too outdated.A game TOO linear nowadays will only make people complain.SoTN upgraded it.

    What I DON'T like is the new 3D ones...its not even in a castle,its like God of War...damn it.

  • @JustinHirade the reason its taking the SotN style is because it was far preferred by people than the original. a few stubborn hardcore players arent enough to warrant making another game that goes back decades in terms of evolution of gaming. linear games are often looked down on for being so these days, its just not nearly as acceptable anymore.

  • @JustinHirade If you have a PSP try Rondo of Blood on Dracula X Chronicles, that features classic castlevania controls and is hard as hell if your up for a challenge. And if your able to you can also unlock Symphony of the Night so you get the best of both.

  • i got my copy at cash converters for £1.50

  • i fucking hate the english voice actors. i was elated to learn that i was given the option to switch the sound from english to japanese. the japanese voice actors have much more passion.

    other than that, this is by far my favorite castlevania. after that comes super castlevania IV.

  • most epic game ever!! it deserves to be the top game for DS!!!

  • MAGE POWAR!

  • Truly one of the best in the Castlevania series, this was the game that finally convinced me to buy a DS. It's right up there with Symphony of the Night.

    The graphics, sound and gameplay are all great. And the challenge! The ramped up difficulty was a welcome change...here's hoping they continue that trend with future games in the franchise.

  • Shit, I want this game, but I need to earn some more cash! >:(

  • The background music are so good in this game!!! I love it!!!!

  • i enjoyed all of the DS castlevania games and mostly enjoyed the PS2 ones as well. hopefully this will be a great installment in the series. ^^

  • trailer ruined all of the boss fights >.>

  • @limitsora69 Thanks for making that apparent.

  • yeah thats what im talkin about casting Michell Ruff as the main character

  • This game olny has one problem, no vampire killer(the belmonts whip). But it has Dracula and Death, plus an extra chacter with a gun, so who gives a shit.

    This is much better then the other ds games.

  • for everyone who things of buying this game DO IT RIGHT NOW!!!!! its probably the best castlevania ever with symphony of the night and it even is a fair challenge

    i enjoyed the hell out of it the combat system is perfect like its what you get when you throw all the RPG castlevania combat systems in a blender and you get this the dual wield from SOTN, the atack catching from DOS en AOS, the combo attacks from COTM. this is for me the perfect RPG castlevania :D

  • If you like Portrait of Ruin then you'll really enjoy this game. I know I sure did.

  • @363Magi If you liked portrait of ruin, this game will make your head explode!!! This is so awesome castlevania mania!

  • @363Magi

    Is it possible to switch the main gameplay screen to the top instead of having in on the bottom in OoE?

    Dawn of Sorrow on the other hand won't let you do this, not to mention the horrible bubble gum generic anime art style and thrown in akward stylus controls are kind of breaking the experience for me. ;p

    I mean i love stylus controls, but this is a traditional game and they feel completely misplaced.

  • @363Magi this game sucks man.. nothing special about it.

  • i have portrait of ruin and judgement and i want this game look like if u where playing portrait of ruin

  • I have Portrait of ruin... it was awesome.. this one looks amazing too. I'ma prolly get it

  • no castlevania can mess with Sotn i can play this 1000 times in a rough

  • all castlevanias are great just play theme

  • ehiiiiiii ragazzi qualcuno mi sa dire come si sconfigge l'uomo muro?....lo combatto ma si ricarica come devo fare? aspetto vostre notizie,grazie!

  • hey im getting this game or Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin wich is better wich one should i get?

  • the order of ecclesia is better then portrait of ruin. but hey, thats my opinion.

  • get both of them XD actually i don't know they're both pretty good to play with XD but i'm saying that OoE (this one) is more intresting actually

  • I'd say order of ecclesia but portrait of ruin is good too. I'd get both honestly.

  • this is a lot more realistic though... she doesn't need to carry all her weapons... unlike the other guys from the other castlevania games... who probably have magic pouches that can hold anything and everything they pick up...

  • i heard it's taken away the backtracking element of castlevania. this sounds like a truly kickass game. plus shes hot.

  • Hardest Castlevania ever ( except SNES ones) but this game is fucking awesome!

  • Is this better than Dawn of Sorrow? Because I've played it (I haven't beaten it yet though :P) and I like it a lot.

  • this game is wack there no background dash here

  • Yes there is. WTF you talking about.

  • this game is great. the trailer does not do it justice at all.

  • Shanoa is hot (o_o)

  • can you play as a boy to?

  • @ronzanio yeah albus mode but after you beat the game

  • is it still fun after you beat the game? and can you use the weapons you bought or earned or something on him to?

  • Why does this game receive much praise from me? 3 reasons.

    1: It's very challenging, which may be a bad thing for those who only crave easy games.

    2: The main character is a woman.

    3: It's Castlevania for pete's sake.

  • @purpleblizzard its very awesome in my opinion probably better than Symphony of the night

  • I have a soft spot for games where the main character is female and she isn't a Hollywood action heroine, which means she isn't a cocky and arrogant showboat. Shanoa is just so cool and attractive for being an amnesia victim.

    Better than Symphony of the Night, well to be honest I like almost all CV games except Simon's Quest. It's too complicated and I can't beat it without a FAQ. Most CV games I use an FAQ as a last resort. Anywho we can both agree that OoE is a great addition to the series.

  • No... Not better than SOTN!!! SOTN is definitly THE best Castlevania. But i guess its about what YOU like. Personally, SOTN all the way. I've been playing it since i was 3 when it came out in 97

  • im one of the few people who play the DS castlevanias before SotN and even though SotN is a  good game, imo DoS and OoE surpass him in gameplay terms

  • Same here :D

  • he sounds sooooo koooool at the end...!

  • she says "be gone" at 1:29, that's one of vegeta's lines u.u

  • My save have 100% but i'm still pay this game ever and ever <3

  • why do they show her dying at the end though

  • cause this game is hard as fuck D:

    fun though lol

  • Konami touched perfection with Symphony of the Night and i don´t think they´ll ever do something so perfect again....anyway i still would like to play this game :-)

  • @danilokun Symphony of the Night was absolutely stunning, hopefully Lord of the Shadows will be the next ultra-amazing castlevania game, but we'll have to wait and see

  • You r so right man! u said all. (bad english)

  • Symphony of the night the Best Castlevania Ever !! .. until this day , it's still the Best . in everything , music , gameplay ,....etc

  • @OmegaXSam voice acting?

  • this is the 1st castlevania that can go beyond lv100 of course after you do some certain requirements

  • this is nothing compared to cop the recruit

  • This was the first Castlevania game I ever played, and holy shit, what an amazing game. It got me into the series.

  • play symphony of the night . it will fcuk your mind socks off

  • Nah ,,, If you missed out Symphony of the Night , u missed the Real Amazing Castlevania that start all of the next series , specially the series in DS ... Symphony of the night is the father of all DS series , and the best Castlevania of all time

  • Wow, I am so glad you posted that comment. I'm seriously grateful, I just downloaded a playstation emulator to play Crono Cross, and it doesn't appeal to me at all no matter how hard I try to get myself into it (nothing compares to the greatness of Trigger) but now that you reminded me of Symphony of the Night I will DEFINITELY put this emulator to use.

    Cheers.

  • Pretty hard game, but I love the character design, very dark and gothic style. And hey, Shanoa is sexy.<3

  • And the words of a moron

  • Soma Cruz is complete badass . u mess with him , u r as good as dead

  • ....and the award goes to....OoE; the BEST Castlevania ever (IMHO)!

  • Men this is the second THE BEST is Shimphony Of The night

  • @Legendaryzantroy u mean symphony

  • @prixcn yeah xDD fail

  • @Legendaryzantroy play castlevania 4

  • @dizzyninja123 i have all the castlevanias played i love this serie of videogames

  • Seems this was IGA's farewell to us.

    Now they got some friggin Spaniards workin on the new Castlevania.

    I was really hoping for a 2.5 HD Castlevania.

    All the 3 DS games kicked ass.

  • can you please give your source od that imformation?

  • Shanoa would have been cooler if she only played as a witch looking to usurp the thrown of Dracula. :)

    BUT NO!!!! They had to make her "good"

    Guys like naughty girls with power. Especially if they have whips. :)

  • Dawn of Sorrow is the best Castlevania for DS. I have beat it completely and have done everything 100% I have done the same on Castlevania Order of Ecclesia and I can definitely say that Dawn of Sorrow is alot better. I have also played Portrait of Ruin, although not completely through the game, but Dawn of Sorrow is certainly the best Castlevania for the DS.

  • true but i think portrait of ruin has the best secret modes like ritchter mode, sisters mode and even old axe armor mode while dos hasonly julius mode.also THE best castlevania game out there now (in my opinion) is dracula x cronicals.

  • Yea, I feel like these new Castlevania games are way too....new. None of them have the classic badassness of Soma Cruz

  • true

  • @PowerVector

    yeah dawn of sorrow has connections

    to sotn

    plus in dawn/aria of sorrow

    u actually playing as dracula XD

  • can someone please tell me the best Castlevania game for the DS. i notice there are a few of them, but i am not sure which one i would like. i am a fan of the older ones, and i would prefer to get the game that is longest. any help?

  • over 20 explorable areas!! the areas are small exept dracula's castle this game is fantastic i have it and cleared it with shanoa and albus 100% with the 2 charcters =)
