Topic: RoB or DXC?

[KaZudra]

Even though there are a number of things I like DXC over RoB, RoB is still stronger, but I Still prefer the Dracula XX soundtrack over both of them

I agree with the good Docta and others that I prefer DXC. Stage 4' in particular was a huge improvement. It went from great to mega-boner...

I also thought the way Richter whipped in DXC felt...more "right". The hit detection also seemed to be better as well. On the other hand I didn't like his model's casual stride. I definitely preferred Rondo's determined march.

I also prefer some of DXX's music as well to the originals, Bloody Tears in particular D:

I'm still surprised DXX wasn't included in DXC as well.

dracula xx is the sufami version of dracula x. I wonder what would happen if it was dracula xxx

dracula xx is the sufami version of dracula x. I wonder what would happen if it was dracula xxx 

Hint: Succubus would be the main character and wins all battles. :p

What is DXX?

It's an SNES version using sprites and such from Rondo. It's not as good as Rondo, but it's got its moments and is worth hunting down a ROM of.

What is DXX?

Akumajo Dracula XX (Super Famicom) --> Castlevania: Dracula X (Super NES, NTSC) --> Castlevania: Vampire's Kiss (Super NES, PAL)

In the same way that Super Castlevania IV is considered the same as the first game depsite their differences because it has the same name (Akumajo Dracula) in Japan, I consider Castlevania: Dracula X and Rondo to be two different games despite their similarities because they have two different names in Japan. That's probably just my personal interpretation, though.

Is it a different game than Dracula X for the SNES?
If that is the case, I've been missing another CV game, just as with the original X68000 game that has some differences with the PSX CV Chronicles Original Mode.

[Lelygax]

If you count blood being red instead of blue water as a new game, them yes

[Pfil]

Oh, just that.

[Lelygax]

Yeah, its just like differences because of censoring or little things like that. In this case I think they only change the death animation color.

[RichterB]

Honestly, Dracula XX (aka Castlevania: Dracula X SNES) is my favorite, and should have been included on the Dracula X Chronicles. Despite similarities, it really is its own game, though. As for the two Rondo's, I just recently have decided that like the original better. I think it plays more responsively, and the stage designs didn't work out as well when stretched/altered for widescreen in the CG remake. (I never noticed how many liberties were taken until I paid attention). They each have their interesting quirks and pros/cons, though.

What are those differences?
I'm very curious about them, I want to try the game now.

[Lelygax]

You've never played Racula X for SNRS? Its very different from Rondo. Or you mean DXC differences to RoB?
