Castlevania: Lament of Innocence (PS2) Death and End Credits

The first PlayStation 2 game I ever owned, and a damn fine Castlevania game, if for no other reason than for providing an incredible prequel story for the entire series.

Here's the final battle with Death and the ending. For once, Dracula doesn't hog the spotlight and gives Death a shot at being the final boss. Too bad he's nowhere near as badass here as some of his other incarnations.

I've heard this is the only good 3D Castlevania.

@rockinsparzy105 You heard wrong. Legacy of Darkness on the N64 is easily the best.

[dspprince]

this is a great game. the only thing that i didnt like about it is that it was short. i though beating the 5 bosses was only half the game. i expected another long way to go before the last level.

[megagrey]

My biggest beef was how the traditional zany platforming elements were hardly there. That's one thing the N64 version nailed but IGA slipped up on here. Curse of Darkness was even worse in that department.

[dspprince]

nah, i like this gameplay more then the 64 game, and Curse of Darkness was even better, more to my taste.

[megagrey]

Sorry, but I need logic-defying level design where I'm hopping and bopping all over the fucking place, and Legacy of Darkness delivered. LoI only had a smattering of the design I crave here and there, and CoD's level design was as flat and uninteresting as the flatest-chested chick you can imagine.

Death is such a fucking bitch boss battle on hard mode.

[jefthereaper]

so thats why death serves dracula, as long as he lives, death can roam the world and enjoy killing things

[JOEmega64]

@rockinsparzy105 Lords of Shadow is fantastic as well. This, that, and Legacy of Darkness are the way to go.

i just noticed a big difference between 'castlevania lament of innocence' and its pal version titled 'Castlevania' only..this is alot faster in terms of gameplay..whereas the pal version is so freakin slow in executing combos and running..definitely gonna get this game (NTSC version) for the sake of the fast whipping action with the vampire killer, the only weapon I have ever used to clock it coz i love hearing the crackle of that whip..so cool, i have neva used sub weapons...lol .=)

and why crystal?ii The better thing to fight death is Hi-speed edge (axe / green orb) cause you avoid the minions easily

[thesonekamitu]

Not wanting to be critic, but you need to improve.. you jump and take damage a lot for nothing, when a couple of quick steps should solve that.

great game

@dspprince H9onestly the thing I didn't like in the end, was pulling out an extra story after beating Walter and how hard he was in comparision...To me, it just didn't match the rest of the game, story and all...I mean come on...Walter was suppose to be the big bad, & yet the hardest Bosses (at least for me...) was Death and The Forgotten One...Wth? lol.

Otherwise, great game...Although I do admit I am not fond of Capcoms Trademark Huge Life Bars you gotta take out more than once in a row lol

Leon's such a pissant.
