The actual Saturn version of castlevania X does not have slow downs, what the developers got wrong is slowdowns are due to the limited usage of memory cart saves. If you do not delete to one character available in the game, it will cause glitches and crash but if you keep saves down to one each character the game works fine no glitches or slowdowns.
Okay I love this game but one thing that piss me off is that how come PS1 didn't feature her and 2 how come Maria moves is different from the PSP then the Saturn version?
They noted that the version of sega saturn, the song "Death Ballad" (the video) is shorter than that of psx? In sega saturn version of the song lasts 2 times, while in the psx lasts 3. The same is true with "Curse Zone" and I think some more ... Greetings!
Notaron que en la versión de sega saturn, la canción "Death Ballad" (la del video) es más corta que en la de psx??? En la version de sga saturn la canción dura 2 tiempos, mientras que en la de psx dura 3. Lo mismo ocurre con "Curse Zone" y creo que alguna más... Saludos!
the forgotten on had a larger build up, because you could hear him but you had to wait to fight him, when i fought Beelzebub in SOTN. it just happened, i didn't expect to fight him..but oh well...
but...i was not scared...but more in awe... and Lament being a 3-D game, the forgotten one felt like a 2-D fight... Which felt so good to play, even though i was partially getting my ass kicked for being unprepared...
So the slowdown is real and the the slightly longer load times are real. Meh, I dealt with load times twice that long when I went through Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen. I'm still getting this game for the Saturn. Also, it looks like Beelzebub or whatever his name was, seems to be slightly challenging when you use Maria.
The slowdown is this game is bad. Also the story is the same no matter what character you use. The PSX version was the original and better game. It's a shame too. The Saturn was known for handling 2D games better than the PSX.
That's because Symphony of the Night is not a true 2-D game, it's flat 3-D. That's why PSX was able to handle it better. The Saturn version is just a simple port with added content, I think if they reworked the Saturn version and made it true 2-D with some 3-D elements, it would eliminated the slowdown.
I'm so jealous. I don't care what people say about the slowdown, extra content is extra content. Anyway, nice video, thanks for uploading it, I was curious about Maria's gameplay, and it appears as though I didnt miss out on too much in that area, since it seems her gameplay has been dumbed down like richter's(no items, no leveling/exp). If Maria's game was as fully featured as the regular Alucard game, I think I would actually have to hunt the saturn version down.
The Saturn port of this game is so awful. The slowdown seriously makes the game unplayable in my eyes. I mean look at this! What a shame, Konomi and their shoddy ass Saturn port, bastards.
"Beelzebub" to be precise, although they they took the title "Lord of the Flies" quite literally. now he's one of the most disgusting yet awesome-looking bosses in the game :)
well to be honest.. I would say if you are a Sony worshipper get stick with the PSX version.. but if you are a Castlevania worshipper get both! The Saturn has these extras not found in the PSX, but the PSX version has better graphics and less slowdown so overall its more polished. The Saturn version is not even handled by the original castlevania team.. oh on the game disc there's an omake disc which you can put into the PC and view some uncensored castlevania artwork.
I do agree with you there, I played the PSX version of this game and I can see that there's a lot of lag. Kind of a shame when this version is pretty cool, because of the extras. I still wish I had my copy of the game.
The japanese playstation version of castlevania that ran at 60hz had border, that was the only reason it look sharper. The saturn version was full screen at 60hz mode japan version. This resulted to english psx version looking bad with the colours been drained. The saturn certainly enhanced coloured and had good sound.
This has been flagged as spam show
it seems monotonous (never played against this boss, though).
