@mongo13times I actually got mine a few weeks ago. And now that two big-sellers with Mario are released, I really hope that the third party developers will start to come out with some great, new games very soon.
this game was one of the best Castlevanias ever because the character was cool, the music was outstanding and you could suck in the souls of other monsters and copy their abilities, that was super fun.
@iswmfastr : no! they should make on 3DS but a 2D style castlevania. using they 3DS, they can make the corridors/castles u walk have more dept and layers of arts.
Just hope they dont make bullsht 3D castlevania.
I dont know what u think, but remember the Metroid games on GBA? i found those 2D ones a lot more fun than the 3D metroids on DS
i restart my castlevania all over again to hear this song even tough i can go back to that place but i feel something different in going back when you are level 1 and not 99 don't you get thet feeling is like you are in the beggining of a great world but it is just a game ¬¬
Technically OoE is closer to Castlevania Classic. DoS is easier and more in line with the Metroidvania setting but its the one that most fans are familiar with. However, considering the length of one playthrough, I suggest PoR (copies are hard to find nowadays). DoS is a good start but you'd have to play Aria first to get the full enjoyment of it (the story begins with a cliffhanger).
@Amatiramisu If you think OoE isn't 'standard Castlevania' then you haven't actually played a lot of Castlevania at all. Play the ones on the NES - OoE is MUCH closer to those than it is to the newer Metroidvania games.
be that as it may, if someone's just getting into the series, they're going to be exposed to the new metroidvania style, not the old style, because they're mostly going to be getting newer games. therefore, for a more accurate representation of what they're in for, it's DoS all the way
@klauzundead its a blue soul power(i dont remember his name)but i remember where i found it,you need the mandragora(the screamer plant) red soul and go to room in middle of a save chamber and Cefiro boss(in clock tower)you see one little baddy in the sky,use mandragora here
@klauzundead its a blue soul(i dont remember his name)but i remember where you can find it,you need first the red soul of mandragora(the scream plant)then you go to the room in middle of a save chamber and the room of Cefiro(the boss who controls time)in the clock tower,in there you see a little monster in the sky,far away,here you have to use the mandragora
You have noticed that the image background of the pinnacle is wrong?
If you had remember, the condemned tower is inmediatly connected with the clock tower, because you need the key that's been guarded by gergoth, in this image, the condemned tower is pretty far away (the spiral like tower), crossing the whole subterranean hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Almost all the Castlevania BGMs throughout the entire series were composed by her. The rest were by guest artists (eg. Russel Watson - "True To Your Dreams"; Castlevania COD credits theme).
True, that. Nevertheless, you can't deny that she's good at what she does.
Long live Castlevania! PS. Sadly, though, at the ending cinematic of COD, through Saint Germain's dialogue, Konami hinted that the Castlevania series is almost at its end. But this is just my opinion, however.
The truth remains to be seen; we can only hope for the best.
@Rikvdpol Dracula's reborn, non-evil version that actually fought back a Belmont and wrecked castlevania TWICE would be overpowered? HOW, pray tell, do you suppose that could happen?

Thank you for uploading this great piece of music from an outstanding soundtrack.
I have to make special mention of OddyMoo making these great pictures to go along with the music track. Each that I've seen so far has been such a perfect match of picture and song, with this one in particular being one great example. A fine touch!
skull archer with that other archer forgot the name :D if u hold R it autofire the bulletsoul to causing a mass destruction and no its not good vs dmitrii just get falchion give dmitrii une-rofl and whoop his ass thall teach him to steal moves
I always say skull archer and une because Dmitri only copys bullet souls. That and skull archer can allow for triple digit damage after charging for a few seconds.
Maybe I just didn't give him the chance. I hit with Une, then charge up Skull Archer, then fire another une to add extra. Maybe because I alternate he only attacks with the bullet soul.
you can get that soul in the room between zephyr room(BOSS),(he crazy old guy who can stop the time!!) and the save point/in there you can see the flying creature on the back ground, use the MANDRAGORA SOUL to KILL em..
