The game's a little disappointing... I think DoS is a better game. So, think before you buy this cos' if you want a Castlevania game get DoS.

No wai. I LOVE this crap till death (played for almost 2 hours in one sitting). Controlling a cute short skirt magician girl running around killing crap = instant win. Not to mention it also has them Desu sisters. The only thing bad about the game is the english dubbing, every fricking where. And I can't change the voices to the original Japanese either. Some of the enemies sounded lame and pathethic in english when attacking/dying (ie: witches and succubuses).

What's so great about DoS anyway? I almost forgot how it played like (it was like what, 2 years back since I played it?).

I played it, its not half bad actually. This is the only castelvania games that i have played more then 2 hour. biggrin.gif And thats saying something.

Previous castlevania games is too much of an hack and slash. This is at least a bit more fun and intersting.

Good game for a starter. Maybe a bit too ez for those that are long time fan of it

I think Charlotte's spells (Tempest kills Death quite easily during the first encounter) made the game a wee too easy, not to mention some of the dual combo attacks, like the meteor (deals instant 360+ damage to everything on the screen), or 1000 swords (deals 20+ damage for what, 100 times?).

Here's something fun to do, change the character to Charlotte, then hold up for 10 seconds. Then do the same thing for Jonathan.

For people who hate the english voice acting... Key in this code,

L + A (at Start Game)

U will hear, "Show time" if key in properly. The speech will now change to kawaii jap.

Geheheh...


IMHO, I think this is a better game than DoS. The graphics is better and best of all, u get to use 2 characters at the same time. If im sick of hack and slash, I can switch to kawaii Charlotte and start spamming magic.

Anyway, both are still great games and I like them all.

I find it that Charlotte is powerfull with her spells... Ice shard? Think machinegun ice! Woot! Some of the bosses are too ez too. And this is coming from a none Castlevania gamer >.>
