Castlevania Series Discussion
Ozzy_98:
I'm a TG-16\PCE fanboy, so guess what one I think is best? Yep, SotN. But Dracula X is second best, and not the choppy SNES "port" where you bounce back and forth pinballing between enemies.
Blumpkin:
I'm terrible. I own Castlevania 1 & 2 on NES, SotN on Xbox Live, the Double Pack on GBA, LoS for 360, and Mirror of Fate on both 3DS and XBL.
However, the only one that I've ever played is LoS. I really liked it, and the funny thing is that it's the one that hardcore fans seem to hate.

Hardcore fans hate the n64 Castlevania games.

Oh snap, you just reminded me that I have both the N64 carts, plus Castlevania IV on SNES. I haven't played any of those yet either.
Thom Grayson:
The GBA/DS games were by far my favorite. There's a very delicate balance in making an open-world side-scrolling game, and I think they pulled it off.
I ALSO rather liked Lords of Shadow (the first one, at least). I've heard the second one is a huge step down in quality, can anyone confirm that?
