It would more likely be a later incarnation of one...jumping gears on the NES just sucked! I don't want to just pick the one in the 64 games (my favorites), but that version of the tower is the one I best remember. I'm sure it was in some of the handheld titles, but I really don't remember them...SotN wasn't really that impressive IMO...I guess I gotta go with what I remember, the Clock Tower in the N64 titles!

Play-wise, I think it'd be either SCVIV or HoD. Aria would be the first if not for those two.

Music-wise, I have to shout out to SCVIV again for having probably my favorite incarnation of Bloody Tears. CotM/CVIII get honorable mentions for Clockwork. And definitely HoD. That whistle tune is eerie.

Post by: X on April 21, 2015, 10:02:40 AM: The main reason why I loved the clock tower stages is due to all the eye candy one is treated with that is not present in other stages. CV III had the best clock tower in the entire NES trilogy as everything was static in the first game, and CV II had no clock tower to be found at all :'(

*is shot*

No, but in all seriousness, I liked Rondo's clock tower the best. It's chiling tune and stunning visuals are what I love about it.

Post by: Ratty on April 22, 2015, 10:27:00 PM: Legacy of Darkness and CV3 have the best atmosphere I think. For 2D it's probably CotM.

I agree. It's also a bit more challenging than the other ones that I've played through. Dodging those tricky skulls in the harder mode is really maddening.
