I can't express enough how much this game has had an impact on me, I remember playing this game when I was 11 years old or so and I was actually scared at first from the setting and music.. but once I got to this level my fears turned into curiosity, curiosity turned to awe, awe turned into fascination, everything about this level is perfect from the sounds of the stalagmites falling to the sound of your whip cracking against the chests of the rockmen goes perfectly with this track
Atari 2600 onwards, and time leaning against arcade cabinets lol 1 of my teachers said it won't lead to anything yet here i am working for rockstar lol
I was born in 1992 and i cant say it was bad.I grew up playing Super Nintendo thanks to my neighbour and oldest friend,as well as Mario Kart and other games of the 90's era.It was cool!I wish i was born in the 80's though so i could experience some of the older games
@metalpsips cant be fun being 0 years old when the SNES came out :\ . . I was 8 when it came out and I'd had my training on the old NES from when I was like 5 or something. my childhood was epic in terms of gaming
Ah, another melody for an age long bereft of today's economy, overpriced education, sparse resources, plastic predecessors, fake crusades, raped innocence, bondage, and last but not least, murdered hope cultivated by both enemies foreign and domestic.
What's better? Being institutionalized to and ignorant of a reality most disconsolate or having enough life to remember a golden day long dead?
@caseyburk Well put sir. Ah, the Golden Age of gaming that shaped some of us into the people we are today. Let us never forget that age, lest we forget ourselves.
@PTMDLBTSify Every song in this game fit the levels perfectly. They create a hell of an atmosphere. I especially like the music in the Treasury stage in Dracula's castle.
@kdreamland lol dude get off your high horse. Chrono Trigger is such an over hyped game by fan boys. Yes it was good but not that good that you can brush Castlevania and its music aside as if its not comparable to the "all mighty, godly" Chrono Trigger. There's a reason Castlevania is still alive today while Chrono Trigger isn't. Also, I'm gonna say it now cause quite frankly, I'm sick of hearing otherwise, but FF7 fucks CT in the ass and out the mouth. Sorry, but that's the truth.
@HumorousLOL Brush it aside? I certainly didn't mean to imply Super Castlevanias music as being poor, its a great OST, and I love it.
The only reason Castlevania is alive today is because there are so many sequels about it. If CT had that many sequels, and was on just as many platforms, it'd still be pretty hot as well.
I don't think Chrono Trigger is overhyped, the game speaks for itself, as do we. if every fan of CT said the music was great, and it was actually terrible then.....
@HumorousLOL CT appeals to so many people because of its greatness. Not many games are on the same level if I'm honest. FF7 is kinda close....but it doesn't and can't hold a candle, except in obvious ways, such as it has Rumble feature because of the PS Dual Shock controllers, and CT doesn't, but that's just platonic.
I love the classics, I love where technology is going as well. It's awesome that no matter the generation, we've always had the ability to experience such great gaming moments. I just hope that the new technology graphically won't take away from the quality of atmosphere in a game. In the end, fun rules.
they dont make games like this anymore.../ they dont make music like this anymore.....next you dopes will look at 1990s clothing and shoes and say..."Gosh...they dont make true jordache shirts and route 66 pants like this anymore..." Grow up....move on..adapt to change....get a girlfriend maybe....RIP to your logic.
games will never again be like this, games like these give me excellent memories like when i used to spend all day playing this, mario RPG, DK 1 2 3, and on the Genesis Streets of Rage, sonic 2, Pitfall
when i first saw super mario 64 my jaw dropped, me and my cousin stood in KB toys for hours watching the demo over and over.... R.I.P games NOT about graphics and multi player where all you hear is "faggot" "noob" "umad" every three seconds and get called a cheater for having any kind of skill.
This level of the game rocks. The tune is foreboding and fills my mind with images of brutal inhumanity each time i hear it. When I do it it feels as though Satan is very close by and is about to appear and commit a bloody massacre. I also get an image of human victims being tortured and raped by demons of the underworld. The salvation of mankind now lies in the hands of Simon Belmont. He must prevail!
@KreatorOfDeath1985 Haha that is hilarious, I think of the exact same thing! I can even hear the cross/boomerang flying across the screen and breaking them down when I hear this track!
I never played Castlevania on the Snes, so I have to use an emulator to play it. The game is difficult, but it is fun. I freakin' love the music, better than that rap crap.
This level of the game is fun and the music enhance to the eerie feel that haunts its interior. This kind of dark requiem is enough to call forth the dark spirits from the wicked realm beyond the void.
I loved this game when I played it back in 1992, and I love it now. A true hallmark of that era. I used to waste countless hours on SNES... ahh... memories...
i remember after a while of playing this game.. since i knew it by heart.. i would just go about the game humming and whistling all these tunes that i new by heart. amazing music.. i never did stop playing this game.. i downloaded an emulator just so i could do it all over it again
Superb! All of the tracks in this game just fitted their respective levels perfectly. Makes you wonder why no subsequent Castlevania title can touch this one sound wise...
I miss games like this the music usually set you in the mood instead of today's games wheres its all about graphics instead of gameplay long live the 16 bit era
chills and brings back memories :( I miss Super Mario and This Game I remember those god damn monsters that took like 30 hits to kill because they kept multiplying dont know there correct names but good times :)
@moonrider0 I'm so glad to be born in 1994; not because of the awful modern games out there today, but because these classics can be bought for so little. Could you have bought this game for $7.50? Didn't think so. Still, it would be nice if these games were more accepted in modern society. Just because you're not staring down the scope of a gun for hours on end doesn't mean it's a bad game; it's quite the opposite, in fact.
I came upon a fully orchestrated version of this track somehow a while back, but I can't for the life of me figure out what album it's from. It's one of the few untagged tracks in my iTunes library. A Google search only sends links to remixes or YouTube videos. Does anyone know the track I'm talking about?
Hey look, I am 17 and I am enjoying this awesome music from an awesome game...I got it for the SNES and it's sitting next to all my other SNES games passed down to me from my dad.
this song is beautiful and has a haunting refrain i love this song, my bro played this game, got to the cave and i heard the music and had it stuck in my head for years till i got the game for my snes and my wii, i would like to hear a new version of this song tho
I remember 1990. Super Castlevania IV, ActRaiser, and Final Fantasy IV set a new benchmark for music in games. A benchmark, in my opinion, that still exists today. The musicians scoring games these days are always going bigger, louder, and more powerful to the point that they lose the atmosphere of the game. Game OST composers, take note. This is how you push aside your ego and make a stunning, lasting impact on gamers' memories.
Back in the day when I was like 12 yrs. old, the theme for this level used to put me to sleep when I would stay up till 5 am playing the game, because it's such a somber tune. Good times.
Try downloading all the Castlevania IV tunes from Ares. I got most of them from there, but I couldn't find the 'map tune' from the first half of the game or the boss music from the second half of the game( inside the castle ye know? ). All the tunes are straight from the game & not crappy remade ring tones. I've used the first half boss theme as my ring tone & the second half map tune as my message alert. Awesome on your phone.. So download Ares. ^_^
this sounds like a theme for a final fantasy, ughh why can't music in games today be so amazing like this piece, heck this entire game had fantastic music. i would love this game to be remade on wiiware psn or live
Word... With the old 2D games, the music was such an essential piece of how the game played... now the games are much more realistic but alot of them lose that atmosphere. Some pull it off though, Twilight Princess is a good example.
God games back then, in my opinion were true art in motion. They weren't just games, they were like a whole bound creation of imagination, fun, and beauty.
Robert Kotick (my fault for miss spelling his name) is the big boss of Activision and a grade A prick.
"The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games." Kotick later stated he tries to promote an atmosphere of "skepticism, pessimism, and fear" in his company and, "We are very good at keeping people focused on the deep depression."
Well the investors loved it from what i´ve been told, because it gives them more back on their investments if they can force out products that are done with stress rather then commitment.
Heck, if they had their way we would be paying 50 buck to play Pacman number 5024: The Greedening.
Sad realy when so many good developers fall under Activision, but i´m being _very_ carefull of any titles they are involved in. Staying well away from Modern Warfare 2. 6 hour single player, not happening.
google snes emulator and i think its the first link and just download the super nintendo emulator and make sure you download the rom there should be a list. make sure you get a xbox 360 wired controler it works outstanding
@optimusP76 so true man... its too bad, they missed some of the best years in gaming... the birth of great franchises.. the leap from 8 to 16 to 32 to 64 bit..i mean, i think nothing in gaming today compares to how we felt when we laid eyes on super mario 64 for the first time...
you aren't alone, we are a small society, but we exist for the sole idea that gameplay is more important than anything else, i thank my uncle, who was a 16-bit era gamer for introducing me to this beautiful set of gaming....i love this game
@optimusP76 this game was released the year i was born but i played it when i was 6 years old, and sometimes i'd just die on purpose to keep listening to the music, i mean the music in this game is just amazing!
they dont make games like this anymore when the music and environment set the tone instead of shiny graphics and horrible VA's, games back in this era from snes - ps1 (including genesis sege saturn and 64) used the players own emotions to decide how they should be feeling. the music and enemies make a HUGE impact on the gameplay i for one and sickened with the current gaming industry trying to make a quick buck instead of going for the limit and pushing something new. R.I.P.era of the true gamer
@piscespeter3 you just nailed it! but lets not forget the glorious NES-era, it was really cool and unique and IMO even more freaky than the snes-era. while many games have been perfected on the SNES, they once started on the now legendary predecessor: a very pioneering and creative era. konami were among the best! thanks for making our childhood that much more memorable!
i remember playin this back in da day, my older bro made a comment that this stage music sounded like the garden of eden...i was like, how you know?...hehehe...oh the memories...
If you remember this stage in the game, there was also the subtle sound of water dropping from the stalactites onto the ground. It had a subtle echo sound to it. Beautiful track.
this one the music is awesome....the one that gets under my skin is the one where you are on a bridge and its like a piano attangement and very sparse....scary as fuck!
The bridge... hmm. I'm trying to think of where that might be? Seriously, though, there are so many places in Castlevania IV that creep me right the fuck out -- I know the viney area right before you go up into the castle for the first time, with all the broken statues, is one that always made me shiver. They do atmosphere in this game like nobody's business.
I have a USB cable and I synched it w/my cell phone. I went to a website called Mr. P's Castlevania. Just google or yahoo it. It's almost like the Castlevania Bible. Everything Castlevania you could imagine. I also have from this game(Waterfalls,Entrance Hall,Theme of Simon),CV3(Nightmare,Demon Seed,Pressure)CV(Out of Time)SotN(Crystal Teardrops,Dance of Gold,Festival of Servants,)and CV64(Dance of Illusions.)
Super Castlevania IV on Super Nintendo. I'm not sure what you mean but on the 1991 issue the options section had a BGM and a SFX mode you can interact with (possibly as a test demonstration). Many Capcom and Konami games in the early 90s had that option.
YAY! ZERO hates!

I mean, how many WW2 FPS games do you need to have in a single generation?

That´s odd, from what i can see Youtube ate my post.
If one was a paranoid conspiracy theorist one could guess Kotic being behind it. *Shifty eyes*
BigSwede7403 2 years ago
who is Kotic by the way?
DrMlieko 2 years ago
Robert Kotick (my fault for miss spelling his name) is the big boss of Activision and a grade A prick.
"The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games." Kotick later stated he tries to promote an atmosphere of "skepticism, pessimism, and fear" in his company and, "We are very good at keeping people focused on the deep depression."
Ripped from Wiki, show´s what he´s like.
BigSwede7403 2 years ago
Aha, that one
Still can't believe he said that out-laud in public
Does he really think he'll get people to work for him that way?
Most likely they'll just go-over to some other company instead

Well the investors loved it from what i´ve been told, because it gives them more back on their investments if they can force out products that are done with stress rather then commitment.
Heck, if they had their way we would be paying 50 buck to play Pacman number 5024: The Greedening.
Sad realy when so many good developers fall under Activision, but i´m being _very_ carefull of any titles they are involved in. Staying well away from Modern Warfare 2. 6 hour single player, not happening.

@optimusP76 so true man... its too bad, they missed some of the best years in gaming... the birth of great franchises.. the leap from 8 to 16 to 32 to 64 bit..i mean, i think nothing in gaming today compares to how we felt when we laid eyes on super mario 64 for the first time...

they dont make games like this anymore when the music and environment set the tone instead of shiny graphics and horrible VA's, games back in this era from snes - ps1 (including genesis sege saturn and 64) used the players own emotions to decide how they should be feeling. the music and enemies make a HUGE impact on the gameplay i for one and sickened with the current gaming industry trying to make a quick buck instead of going for the limit and pushing something new. R.I.P.era of the true gamer

@piscespeter3 you just nailed it! but lets not forget the glorious NES-era, it was really cool and unique and IMO even more freaky than the snes-era. while many games have been perfected on the SNES, they once started on the now legendary predecessor: a very pioneering and creative era. konami were among the best! thanks for making our childhood that much more memorable!

hemantology 2 years ago
The bridge... hmm. I'm trying to think of where that might be? Seriously, though, there are so many places in Castlevania IV that creep me right the fuck out -- I know the viney area right before you go up into the castle for the first time, with all the broken statues, is one that always made me shiver. They do atmosphere in this game like nobody's business.

I have a USB cable and I synched it w/my cell phone. I went to a website called Mr. P's Castlevania. Just google or yahoo it. It's almost like the Castlevania Bible. Everything Castlevania you could imagine. I also have from this game(Waterfalls,Entrance Hall,Theme of Simon),CV3(Nightmare,Demon Seed,Pressure)CV(Out of Time)SotN(Crystal Teardrops,Dance of Gold,Festival of Servants,)and CV64(Dance of Illusions.)

Options section of what Castlevania 4?
JamesRideout123 3 years ago
Super Castlevania IV on Super Nintendo. I'm not sure what you mean but on the 1991 issue the options section had a BGM and a SFX mode you can interact with (possibly as a test demonstration). Many Capcom and Konami games in the early 90s had that option.
Midnaswolf47 3 years ago 3
Yeah. I wish I had that. I played the edition after that. I never even downloaded a rom that had that option.

I didn't even know there was a version of S.C. IV that didn't have that in the options.. Good thing I still own a copy of the version that does :P
