  • I could neither find the question or the answer^^. Does someone know the name of the Soundtrack? I would really appreciate it. Thx in advance for response

  • push the freakin box man! ahahaha!!! ^_^.

  • Tell me if Symphony of the Night is on sega saturn but only released in Japan? Otherwise how did this able to let Maria play as well as have english dubbed like the ferryman talking?

  • @Johny2662 This Is dracula X chonicles on the psp in which you can unlock SOTN, which has new voice acting and the ability to play as maria in it.

  • @subject153 Ahh, thanks for telling me. That's awesome

  • @subject153 Another question, does the PSP also have the lost levels like the Sega Saturn?

  • @Johny2662 To be honest I do not know you are better off using google

  • Don't mind what the old man says, he's senile.

  • Maria is in the PSP version A FRIGGIN NIGHTMARE! LOOK AT THIS! (3:28)

    how fast her energy drains! thats FUCKING insane!

  • So the ferryman is blind and thinks Maria is Alucard? Or perhaps Alucard's penchant for heels has caused him to confuse women with Alucard. Hm. Something to think about.

  • killer fish livin up to it's name

  • wait, didnt maria have a magic meter in the saturn version?

  • @10zaq10returns Maria was a totally different character in the Saturn version. She used martial arts and magic spells instead of animals. The way they put her in the PSP version is more like the Rondo Maria we all know.

  • is the vampire killer theme in this version?

  • @simplyxwilliam No. Neither is the Bloody Tears rendition. Sucks. 

  • @TransformersFanCo217 I take it that Guardian (Alucard vs Maria boss battle theme) is missing as well.

  • @saturnurameshi

    Yes, it re-uses another theme from the PS1 soundtrack isntead.

  • Maria Orinal!.....O___O

  • What a bad voice acting

  • "Welcome aboard, O Prince. Shall I guide thee 'cross the river?"

    I lol'd

  • @ASleeplessWolf In the remake of Rondo of Blood, Death calls her a boy too. LOL

  • the fish is truly a killer fish

  • at first i thought it was a gameshark cheat for ps1 because sega virsion in the waterfall it dosent have the white fog its like there is nothing there but i was rong both ways

  • this isnt a new sprite. you can play as maria on sega saturn version.

  • God why did they make her suck so bad in the psp version? In her original incarnation she had like 20 moves.

  • how do you use maria?? 0.o

  • The ferryman has really bad eyesight...

  • How do you do for maria?

  • What an atmosphere... sheer beauty in every sense.

  • how can you play with maria ?

  • just finish the game killing Dracula in the inverted castle then , if its de PSP version star a new game and use the name of MARIA to play

  • oh, she is really weak...

  • Maria's a prince?

  • The ferryman was supposed to be for Alucard.

  • @LetsComment

    I'm guessing the game testers didn't speak English.

  • @LetsComment Just don't ask.. 0-o

  • @LetsComment fail

  • Was it that hard to figure out that you had to push the freakin block?

  • sega version > all ... sorry

  • Saturn version was a terrible port. And this version has all the extra stuff from the Saturn version anyway.

  • What about the cursed Prison?

  • Uber Maria (Saturn version) is much stronger. She utilized her zodiac powers in the Saturn version. In this one shes using animals (p-_-)p

  • nnnooooohhhhh..... the saturn version is cool but this maria makes more sense with the rondo version. maria can probably kill enemys fast in this version too.

  • @jamiljamtheman

    Too bad she has poor DEF. I had a hard enough time getting her to Shaft's room. I forget if I ever managed to beat him as Maria. I know I got Richter and I'm trying to beat True Dracula (the one that Alucard fights in his story) with him using a glitch that lets me fight him as Richter.

  • How do you fight true dracula with richter?

  • @jamiljamtheman

    Backflip so that when he slides backward upon landing he lands in Shaft's room. Then run into the edge and you can fight Drac. Beware, he's super hard. Even I can't beat him, and I beat Shaft after dying so many damn times trying to reach him!

  • @TheAzureKnighthood

    thanks ill try that. i havent even beaten shaft with richter :)

  • @jamiljamtheman

    Try either Hydro Storm or Grand Cross.

  • oh ive done that. even eith the bible beam. but its nearly impossible to fight him with the whip because his lightning is impossible to dodge. i like interesting fights :) O, I tryed Draula and he's really hard. Even when using like 3 hydrostorms in a row! But its fun as hell I love that fight and i'll probably beat it unless my hearts run out, but then im skrewed.

  • @TheAzureKnighthood

    I BEAT HIM!!!!! I BEAT TRUE DRACULA WITH RICHTER!!! And it's quite easy too. When he first goes into the background and shoots the weird thingy at you, after you dodge it, ground slide to the left edge of the screen and stay ducked. he wont be able to hit you. when he shoots you with triangles, use hydrostorm to be immune.

  • @jamiljamtheman

    You're lucky. My health is abysmally low. I die in three hits from Drac.

  • what do you mean? drac kills richter in one hit. and i used this strategy to not get hit at all. its really easy trust me just try it.

  • @jamiljamtheman

    You probably didn't get a lot of HP max ups. I died in three hits, even with that strategy. All it did was help me last longer.

  • i used a save file i've never beaten richter mode. and this might help its where i got this strategy: search sot richtre fight dracula. trust me i beat him on the psp its really really easy!

  • @jamiljamtheman

    Dude, I'm not calling bullshit. I've tried this multiple times and it don't work. I take damage because Drac lowers himself low enough to touch me. It's nothing I'm doing, since I'm crouching. Wish I could show you a vid, but I don't have the equipment/software.

  • @jamiljamtheman

    And to clarify, I took only contact damage. He went low enough to touch me, which hurt. A lot.

  • @TheAzureKnighthood

    I mean sotn richter fight dracula ill also say this: you have to go ALL the way to the edge before he comes back and face left while ducking.

  • @jamiljamtheman

    Done! Facing left was the missing piece! Thanks, man. You secured my absolute sovereignty over Drac as Richter. Each version of Drac that can be faced as Richter has been defeated by me as Richter.

  • @TheAzureKnighthood

    you are very welcome. im glad to help.

  • Is there a way to pass throug the spike room in the catacombs in the PSP version?

  • never seen the room, but mabey spike destroying armor.(Forgot actual name)

  • the catacombs spike room is where you get that armor smarty pants. i need help i cant find the catacombs.

  • Well thank you. To find the Catacombs I believe you have to go to the stadium(or whatever the stage was called) and i think. (I think) its one of the door ways that is near the area where you faced Richter. I can't remember off the top of my head.

  • thanks.

  • i need to find the catacombs. you use echo of bat to get past it, though. i already have that.

  • hey i beated that boss with psp maria lol

    only took long

  • Immagine Maria fighting with Galamoth.... EVIL!

  • can u play as maria on xbox 360 version

  • no...

  • Maria sucks in the PSP version....

    The sega saturn version is much better!

  • She does!

    I mean look at her sprite in the Saturn version. It completely matched the Maria in the dialouge scenes. Here in the PSP version it seems different and tacked on...

  • Maria can in the SS version triple jump, she was overpowered!

    In the PSP version: WEAK! I can't beat the game with her....

  • Maybe she was a bit overpowered with the whole energy blast system. But I think that was to show that she mastered the power of her Megaman-like "Alter Ego". Also, in the Saturn Version, she had both Sud-Weapons AND her Celestial Animal Guardian Spells. Here she just has her bird attaks and the Sacred Beasts as her Subweapons like in the original Rondo of Blood...

  • Not only that, but one can definately tell that this was Konami's way of giving SOTN a "Hard Mode". Plus, one can also notice a pattern of strength and movement between Alucard, Richter & Maria: Alucard is Moderate in Power but moves Slow with Walking; Richter is High in Power and can both Walk and Run; Maria is Low in Power but moves Fast with Running...

  • preeeety

  • "Welcome abord o prince" ???

    O_O

  • Oh yes, theres that old SOTN music i remember when i was 7....sometimes i would go to the Library and just listen to the amazing soundtrack. Man...i need to buy a PS 1 and a new copy of the original SOTN...

  • You don't need a PS1 to play this game anymore. You can download it on Xbox Live Arcade, PS3 network (for about $10)or get it as a bonus when you buy Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles on PSP

  • wait really? you get this game on the the chronicle?!?!?!

    is this game or back in the day Symph of the night?

    I lave that game

  • Dracula X is a 3-D remake of Rondo of Blood (a Japanese-only Castlevania game), the original of that, and a port of Symphony of the Night with a couple extra things.

  • maria's a tank :P (eric's better tho)(and no, not just in judgement)

  • Could someone PLZ tell me if the SOTN on Dracula X chronicles is an exact replica of SOTN but has different voice actors? or what major differences are there? Clearly there is a way to unlock maria?????

  • Beat the game. Enter Maria to play her. :)

  • welcome abord prince? lol, what no princess?

  • wow...so it's pretty much just like rondo except a few differences here and there?

  • the japanese version fo saturn had maria with different movements, you had to enter pad combinations ( much like alucard spells) to summon your animals, here you use your animal as sub-weapons, also no kicking here, lol other than that the game is pretty much the same

  • r u crazy or what that bitch is the most powerfull character on all the Sega saturn version even dracula fight good as that bitch

  • ....ok, when did i say she wasnt?, i just pointed out that the gameplay had differences...

  • "welcome aboard o prince"

    XD

  • Does she have all the same moves from saturn?

  • No. She has a completely different moveset.

  • Roflmao the cat drowned at 1:28

  • can maria even kick in this one?

  • aha you died in the end!!

  • its a shame that you cant play as her on on the 360 version and by the way good video

  • does this work on the playstation version? how can i select maria?

  • this is only for psp and saturn

  • what version system is this for?

  • does she have the high jump?

  • yea, but it looks like a bird carrrying her up instead of her doing a superjump thing.

  • yea but it looks different. a bird comes on top of her head and pulls her up about a screen and a half.

  • does she have the high jump?

  • does she have the high jump?

  • does she have the high jump?

  • yes she have the high jump xD

  • the Saturn maria is un official because it was not done by the original team and koji igarashi was not the producer koji igarashi hates the Saturn game

  • and for me it's bad that he hated saturn edition cause saturn version has some cool features like faster moving Alucard relic and some new items, also in saturn there are 2 new areas and for me Saturn Maria was cool but cheap, she was able to beat a boss with just one Combo xD

  • Who cares about Igarashi and his way of thinking. The Sega Saturn version still came out from Konami's will, done by a Konami internal development team (KCEN), and that makes it 100% official, even if this man neglects it by no reason.

  • It's different than in Saturn Version...

  • "welcome aboard, O prince"

    lol she looks so funny

  • yeah, i guess they wanted us to try it hard without her powerful dragon spell, that strong high jump thing. well, at least shes playable.

  • is this for PSP?

  • She looks like she has the same abilities as in Rondo of Blood instead of the Saturn Version.

  • wtf is DXC????

  • Dracula X Chronicles for the Sony PSP.

  • Shes so fucking weak. And the owls dont do shit damage. I wish they would have used the SATURN maria.

  • or at least had both. This Maria freshens up the game, but the Saturn Maria was better.

  • She's a challenge. It's what's been missing from Castlevania ever since Symphony.

  • ...In my opinion, at least.

  • can you play as her in the PLaystation version?

  • can you play as her in the playstation version?

  • i liked more the old voice of th eoarsman he was like the joker from batman or bettlejuice

  • "Prince"?!? O_O

  • It's amazing how many videos I see where the player is of low quality... -.-

  • thanks for the response. 1 last question how does she get to all the high places in the castle?

  • down+up+jump button. A bird will move you up.

  • thank you sooo much =]

  • noob

  • hi i would like to know if maria can do the high jump like in the Saturn version

  • No, but instead a Bird grab her and levitates her. Here She is less "Super-powered-SOTN-like-Richt­er" and more alike Dracula X/Rondo of Blood.

  • I actually like that they're putting a "nerfed" maria in SOTN. She was pretty broken in the saturn version. Should be more of a challenge now.

    Funny how she's always been overpowered vs. richter in rondo/dracula x, but now its possibly the other way around in the new SOTN.

  • I have a question on the ps1 version you used R1 to change into a wolf and R2 to change into a bat and L2 to change into mist how do you change into the form on PSp with too many buttons PSP only has L and R? reply please..

  • R is bat, L is wolf, and L + R together is fog.

  • Ugh I used the new Maria in the PSP version...I really miss her Saturn version now. AND THE VAMPIRE KILLER REMIX AT THE BEGINNING.

  • can u still play as richter belmont in symphony of the night on dracula x chronicles if u beat the game as alucard?

  • Yes. You just have to type his Name for a new game, same for maria.

  • And, to put the saturn version Maria would also have added new variety to a character we already know from the other two games (Rondo and it's remake).

  • LOL, he called Maria a prince.

  • Just a note: This is not ME playing. I got this video from a download link.

  • Love the music.

  • Hey tgis maria have specials atacks....you don't show it O.O....2 jump end fly with bird too....this maria is very cool....this is ture Maria....Saturn disturbed it

  • Doesn't look like you've played Dracula X much.

    No triple jumps and no kicks?

  • It doesn't look like you've played saturn SOTN much, does it? there were triple jumps and kicks. men, get a saturn emulator and play it, or at least look at some videos

  • And it doesn'T look like you've played the PSP SOTN much, does it? :D

    She ain't got no kicks in the PSP Version.

  • It doesn't look you read very well what people say. I'm complaining about that, she ain't got no kicks in the PSP Version. I'm complaining about she isn't the same saturn Maria. And I'm complaining about she came from an ultra-powerful version, to an ultra-weak one. Men, I still understand that you, who don't have played the saturn version, say that she's not worth: you can't play it, she's not worth. Well, saturn Maria is far better than psp Maria. That's all :D

  • Over-powered doesn't mean better. So it's still fun the "new" Maria, it means more challenge.

    In the other hand you have Richter who sucks in Dracula X...(He gets to my nerves with the straight whip only) and in SOTN he is superman (flying uppercut)... who gets this?

  • Different Nocturne in the Moonlight...

  • i thought this was going to have full widescreen with no stretching.

    and no borders. oh well.

  • why dont you shut the fuck up?

  • you can barely see the borders but if theyre noticable in the compilation it is a major fuck up. all i am saying is wait and see.

  • Why don't you chill? The borders are PART of the compilation. They didn't accommodate the widescreen aspect ratio of the PSP, instead they left it on the normal aspect ratio that a PSX played on.

  • i'm cool! (chilled)

  • Heh, Maria's gameplay isn't canon that's why the oarsman called her a prince:)

  • I knew she was going to be a failure... at least, this is what I assume from this... I like projectiles more than birds and cats for sure! I at least hope they kept all the kicks moves! But as she's shown in the video, this Maria gives me a fu**ing shit.

    And thanks to frosthead for this preview :)

  • ----> :(

  • Maria never had kicks, and the birds were always her main weapon, so if you dunno what you are talking about: STFU. Saturn Maria was just a huge pile of shit.

  • I'm talking about saturn maria, and if you don't know a thing, as it really seems, go to play that satun maria if you want to know. and those birds are so weak against every enemy, damn them.

    P.S.: get your informations before talking

  • And I was talking about the real Maria, as she was designed. I've played that shitty Saturn porting and she was way too powerfud and had some completely dull moves, like Suzaku turned into an owl familiar. Rondo Maria is totally different, and that's how she is supposed to play, not like some clone of Megaman.

  • Than that's it. We couldn't understand each other, but I respect your opinion then. And you respect mine: I too love original Maria, as she was a little girl, with girlie attacks (c'mon friendly animals and sound notes.. are kiddy attacks); when she's grown I've expected that her attacks are grown with her too, not always the same bird (also very weak).

  • I agree that as Maria grew, she have new attacks. Fighting with animals the way she does is just childish. In SotN, Maria is seventeen years old, I would think that she would have some powerful and impressive attacks. I mean look at Juste Belmont from HoD. He is sixteen in the game and look how powerful he is. I'm just saying that her attacks should be more advanced and adult-like.

  • Dang they destroyed maria..

  • I wonder if they kept Richter's original sprite or changed it too the longer hair and overcoat

  • how in the hell do you get maria in SOTN???

  • She's unlocked from the get go in the Japanese Saturn version. Not in any other except DXC.

  • maria rocks this versiojn of her looks so much better then my sega saturn version

  • "Ferry"?!

    Where´s the "man"?! o.o

  • I know. I have no idea why the Oarsman called Maria a

    "prince." But, I think the Oarsman is blind, or is really old to tell the difference.

  • Prince?!

  • Glad to help.

  • I'm glad to help. =D

  • God I want this! I'm hyped to hear all the new voices.

    Especially Dracula & Richter.

  • Awesome! :)

    Already looks a lot more fun to play than Maria on the Saturn. But that doesn't take much...

  • Yes! She plays much more like the Rondo incarnation.

  • This is a deffinate grab off the shelf when I see it. Thanks for the video!

  • Thanks for the video! This totally makes DXC worth buying!
