The Castlevania Thread

Bro all you want are those extra stages from the Saturn version. I mean I feel you on that but apparently they weren’t that good. I’d rather they spend the time and energy making a proper 2D console Metroidvania game.

Well, 2 new areas, Alucard’s 3rd Hand, new alternate costume for Richter, Maria & Richter playable from the start, a new boss, a new warp room, new equipment for Alucard (Rainbow Robe, Alucard Spear, etc.), slightly different music for Maria and Richter in different areas, 18 new enemies…

I just want it lol.

The new areas are just palette swaps of some other areas in the castle. The music is good in those areas are good though. If you really want to play it, go download a Saturn emulator and get the .iso somehow.

Also, Mirror of Fat sucks balls in your nose. Why the fuck does Simon Belmont look like an ape man? What is David Cocks smoking? Bring IGA back and team him up with Platinum games please ala Metal Gear Rising. Also bring back Michiru Yamane for fucks sakes. I’m tired of all this generic hollywood soundtrack nonsense all these games are spewing.

I’m two steps ahead of you. I got it running on Yabuse and SSF pretty well. Just haven’t played it in a while. Going through a nostalgia bit.

This guy needs to do more Castlevania tunes…

Bumping for great justice. The original Lords of Shadows is coming to PCs this August.

New Lord Of Shadows 2 Trailer.

Anyone play Castlevania Rebirth on the Wii? Looked pretty good and I’d kill to have a linear Castlevania again.

Trailer sucks. Game is going to Suck. David Cox sucks. Castlevania sucks now.

Talk about “My Body is Ready” Sheeeeeeit! That trailer has me pumped. Who else is getting it on PC? I’m so glad the support is for it right out of the gate.

You people marking my post as troll… Sadly, I’m being serious. Glad to see that Gabriel borrow Frostmourne from Arthas. Also, glad to hear that they are still using shitty generic hollywood music. Makes my ears bleed, man.

I will give Rugalitarian this-- Son is incredibly dedicated to his hate of all things Mercury Steam… I thought I was disciplined in my seething hatred of Capcom, but this man right here never misses a chance to shit on Lords of Shadow.

Kudos, brotha. Kudos.

Keep marking it as troll. You KNOW those are the posts people single out and read first as they’re scrolling down the page, right?

I’ll get Lords of Shit 2… When it’s in the bargain been at my local CD Trader store 2 weeks after release.

He may be a stupid troll but the man is right about Lords of Shadow music.

It’s horrible and generic and is not worthy to be used in any Castlevania game. LoS was a decent enough game, although I couldn’t bring myself to finish it. It certainly looks like MercuryStream is fixing a lot of the issues I had with the first game though…so I’ll see about giving the series another try.

Funny thing is, the music was one of the few things I did think was good. Not better than the Igavanias or anything but a couple if the themes I dug.

That silver haired dude they called Alucard though needs to get the fuck out. SOTN Alucard is real Alucard.

Speaking of LoS music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmUZ8B2pgAc&list=PL21791DA20B55E7E9&index=8

Best piece in the game imo.

How come no one mentions how much Mirror of Fate sucked? Lords of Shit may be decent action games at best, but Mirror of Fate is just total garbage.

Yea but…

Top 3 themes in all of the series.

that’s a tough one, it’s a great theme But There are so many really good ones to choose from its hard for me to say that one Makes top 3

Yea just the thought of trying to nail down 3 themes to put as “top” from the Castlevania series actually stresses me out lol.

Olrox’s Room comes to mind but that’s about all I can commit to.

However, nothing from LoS would be considered. S’all I’m saying.
