Ahhhhh, yes, i see well thats solves that then, and as i don't know this Mr p's site, would some who does know tell me, is this the one eveyone wants. As i'm willing  to get a lift to the  storage, so if its anyone has a way of checking could they let me know.

Well I am interested, but only on the last stages. That's where the whole "Dracula is in fact Drolta" thing supposedly comes from. Although yeah, that's not the guide I was looking for (like Nagumo).

Well I really don't who and how this guide has got such a high status, seeing as  its in ENG and  made in 1994.
 And in those days they really didn't follow any of the Japanese storyline.

But like I said there could be two books with the same name. 

But when get the book back I'll send you shots of anything you Need. I'll send you a PM

Thank you!

The other guide got high status because it's rare. I, personally, would value the Mega Drive FAN coverage above the english guide, not only because it's Japanese, but also because the book's publisher worked directly with Konami and is credited on Bloodlines. While the english guide is a work of Prima Games and is called "official", they are known for their not-very-high standards (seriously, check the one they did for Mortal Kombat, or this one for Dark Souls III, and there are others). But, to know for a fact how trustworthy the english guide is, we have to read it.

So yeah

No prob at all, and i agree i value the Mega Drive FAN thats why i got it.

And now i know that some members  want it i'll get right on that, we should be  going to the  Storage at the end of  the month. So hopefuly all are questions will be answered.

I have've just been in contact with  someone who maybe be able to get  me a copy of
"castlevania bloodlines official game secrets" he has to check  so it not a done deal, but its better then nothing.
fingers crossed eh.

This is what've been up to for the last few days. I never let anyhting GO

[Nagumo]

I only realized this recently, but the publisher of that Bloodlines guide, Prima, is known to have put out unofficial guides for SotN and CV64 (their first officially licensed guide was for Legacy of Darkness) There's a strong possibility the Bloodlines one is unofficial as well, which would explain its obscurity.

[Guy Belmont]

right I have found some new  information  on this elusive book.
I had a theory that it never existed as I could fine no trace and no one seemed to own it. I had hoped to be wrong so last night I got in contact with the author of this book, and he confirmed my suspicion,  he told  that the book had indeed  never published. You see after another quest to find a rare Gem I found out that,

Publishers like Prima  had to produce its catalog of upcoming titles for bookstores and resellers (such as B Dalton, Amazon, etc.) between 3-6 months in advance. As a result, titles that they THOUGHT they might publish occasionally slipped in, but were never written and published.

And this is what's happen to the Book, it was to be written and published, but at the last second they decided not to, most likely for money's sake.

So there you have it an end to the strange case of the "castlevania bloodlines official game secrets"

[Shiroi Koumori]

Wow! That is a scoop. Thanks for snooping, Guy.
Well, that ends the investigation.

No need to thank me



I'm A Belmont, that's my job.

Thank you, Guy Belmont.

I wonder why does this book even got a ISBN code, then.

 Thank you,
And on that part it is odd, what I guess is that they just do all that when they post there catalogue.

sadly we may never know.
