Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow - Clock Tower

[parma1998rj]

el juego mas chido qe alla jugado en mi vida viva castlevania aria of sorrow

[SummonTheNight]

There's just something about playing Castlevania on a portable system that has it's own special appeal. Maybe it's the sophisticated, classy, and lovingly 'tinny' sound bytes caressing my ears... I just can't quite put my whip on it.

[Squad11Captain]

I hated this area so much (because of the pain of making your way up with all the flying medusa heads) however spent as much time as possible in it because of the music.

[britz780]

any dislike....thats the proof of the power of castlevania

[deuterio125]

clock tower level classic

[DevilSoma]

Me with black wings flying throught the ruins of a old mechanical tower....then a bridge with a black door at the end....the door open and i enter then a black winged death angel emerge with twins Scythes -Welcome Master...i shall test your powers-

-Death!..-

[Glamstarr90]

Its actually epic when you realise that this whole song has like +13 different clock noises. Listen whit good headphones beginning part contains most of them ( i heard 7) and rest of song i have found 5 more.

[AverruncusFate]

Soma Cruz is my second Favorite character in Castlevania series.

My favorite is Alucard.

[X5C4P3R]

The people below me don't know that without the whip-wielding Belmonts there would be no Castlevania, especially Simon.

[knifefight19]

this song makes me feel so lonely...

[Xr3alex100900]

lol clock tower and top floor are two of my favorites from this one

but really i seem to prefer the three castlevanias with cool characters and more weapons than just the whip

Curse of of darkness, SOTN, Aria of sorrow, == 3 of the best ones

and guess what no whip at all really lol

belmonts are just lame excpet julius/richter

[MrNemitri]

@Xr3alex100900 you forget there is a sword-whip in aria of sorrow XD

[Xr3alex100900]

@MrNemitri yeah i loved the sword whip, and the 2 pistols in the game

silver gun and 9mm.

[RangerJackWalker]

@Xr3alex100900 and the Positron Rifle :D

[Abner321able]

cuando juegas en el Julius Belmont y vas en esta pantalla la musica del Castle Corridor suena en el Clock tower

[AngelBeeps]

MAKING CHRISTMAS~

MAKING CHRISTMAS~

MAKING CHRISTMAS~

[CrimsonHybrid6VI6]

@AngelBeeps LOL I get it. XD

[Zeffa1234]

I remember when I first saw a picture of this game in one of my Game Informer magazines a long time ago. I thought it sucked just because of the graphics. Boy was I wrong when my brother actually bought it. I couldn't put the game down, lol. I think that was around the time when I finally learned that it's all about the game-play and this game had lots of replay value which made it even better for me and yes, the music sure did kick ass for this game. Now I'm going to go download it on as a rom.

[SUPERMATT5546]

@Zeffa1234

It's good but Super Castlevania 4's the best

[keffiezor]

one of the best castlevania tunes ever, and im being nice leaving s.o.t.n. out ^^

[Ladymakaze]

Not the Medusa heads!

[Princessstarify]

This music sounds very mysterious!

[DaSurreal1da]

this sounds like it was made on the Genesis, remember the crappy sound card Genesis Had........

[alanvamp]

@DaSurreal1da lol this sound much better than a genesis, gba sounded more like a snes

[AkagenoAdol]

@DaSurreal1da

No but I remember the kick ass one that it had

[DaSurreal1da]

@AkagenoAdol C'mon, compared to SNES, the genesis sound card was not up to par. Im not knocking you personally, but just compare the games that came out for both systems and compare how they sound. Some games for SNES, the genesis could not possibly reproduce. Imagine Chrono Trigger soundtrack on Genesis. Or FF6. It wouldn't work, the genesis didnt have the hardware

[AkagenoAdol]

@DaSurreal1da

That's true, and I won't discount the soundtracks of those games because they're fantastic. However, the Genesis had some amazing musical scores too, especially when they played to the strengths of the console's synth. If one of the Sonic or Phantasy Star games' soundtracks, for instance, was transposed to the SNES synth, they would lose a lot of the character they had before, since they were tailor made to the hardware of the Genesis.

[DaSurreal1da]

@AkagenoAdol I dont think they'd lose character. Since the SNES has a better soundcard and given the track history of games being launched for both systems yet the SNES version sounds better 9 times in 10. Im going to have to say that this same song would ve sounded better on the SNES version. Im not saying Genesis didnt have amazing scores.Im just comparing the sound capabilities between the systems being reflected in the games.

[nesuroku]

I do not mind the music sound quality is very good that the DoS. and that is not discussed further.

[AllHailLunesta]

The guitar part in this always reminds me of Doom's music.

[Wolfliberator13]

Love this song been listening to it all day long

[MiDSinister]

Now just imagine how awesome this would have sounded if AoS would have been on a non-handheld.

Ah Konami..you tease us with these portable games and their halfway potential for good audio.

Don't get me wrong, I love this song..but the GBA (Or even NDS) audio isn't enough for Michiru Yamane to show her awesome skill.

[Syndo]

yeah man imagine if all of them were like that they would have been much better, it dosnt feel epic playin a castelvania on handheld

[Brandon5l9]

@MiDSinister I agree. These Metroidvanias should all be for XBLA and PSN. Screw handhelds.

[azzavarrok]

@Brandon5l9 Screw consoles, handhelds are the only other good system. Why buy a console when I have a more powerful PC?

[Brandon5l9]

Exclusives, maybe? I own all 3 "main" consoles and a PC that was top of the line in 2009.It runs the first Crysis maxed out and thats good enough for me. PC does not have many good exclusive games, IMO(I dont like MMOs). Also hacking/cheating is seen way more in PC games. Hand helds are shit and unless emulated,(which is far better then the real thing aside from the 3DS) have to be played with awkward "controllers" and the smallest screen known to man. Castlevania is worthy of the big screen.

[azzavarrok]

@Brandon5l9 Why doesn't PC have many good exclusives? Its because most companies care more about the bigger market on console. However, PC has exclusive types of games. Ever seen a good RTS on console? Handhelds are nice because you can take them places, but I agree that they arn't nearly as powerful as a PC or console.

[rockmusscarcella]

I'm walking through castlevania's corridors, and i have a Crissaegrim (H)

( 1:05 )

[WinAFreeAppleIPod]

@rockmusscarcella you mean valmanway ;)

[robnewman84]

best track of the game

[rmf99]

unforgettable

[AnimeGamer35]

Great track! Bad quality (ingame)!

[VileGlassPrincess]

Man... I wish this album was better quality.

I have no idea why they didn't use proper recordings for the album... This game had some of the best music in the series...

[baduelsote]

[ceetable]

the second part of this song would be more fitting for fighting either death or dracula

[Conkerz03]

[printmanfirst]

[agaifi]

I'm not sure, but I think they are making fun of the way japanese pronounce words in english.

Also, 1:25 until 1:45 or so <3
