Yes I loved the fact that Sonia marries Alucard and so the Belmonts share their lineage with Dracula. That's so fanfiction-ish!
Too bad Koji took it out of the canon...

Maybe because he wants to ship Allie with Maria. (radio drama)
But from whom did the Lyudmil thing came from? If it's also from Koji, hehehehe....... Nah, most likely from one of the female staff members.

I am pretty sure that is the work of a girl, not Iga  ;)

Sonia never marries Alucard. What they had going on was a secret love affair from which Trevor was the result of that union. Had anyone known about their coupling especially the church, Sonia would have been met with the same fate as Dracula's wife.

Is that better or worse than "Dracula really is a Belmont!"?

Better, because you have the whole "sins of the father" motif of Alucard extended more subtly and we also got a cool, strong female protagonist out of it.

Well... the important part remains the same, as long as the sheets remain silent  ;)

For my personal taste, it is better because it includes several layers of confronted feelings, instead of just one tale (which I've already recognized as a great story as well).

So DoctaMaria voted for CoD, I guess.

Nah, I forgot to vote. But I just brought that up to two votes! ;)

And who voted for Castlevania 4??? *lights torch and readies pitchfork*  >:(

Yes, as much as I love every ClassicVania and MetroidVania, I had to vote for some game so I gave my vote for the one I love the less, which is Haunted Castle.
And as much as I love them all, I can understand every vote, except for SCV4, CotM and AoS.

You should add Castlevania: Dracula X (SNES) and Castlevania 64 in the list, if possible. I will vote in Haunted Castles since its the game that I have least played.

That's the same criteria I applied for my vote. I played too little time Haunted Castle, and I knew it many years ago after knowing and playing several times all the other games, so, while I really like it (it's one of my favourites arcade games), it is in fact my least favourite CV.

I forgot about Bloodlines and Dracula X for the SNES too, but it isn't possible to modifiy the list.
Maybe Jorge can do it.

Added Bloodlines, Dracula X and CV64 for ya :). Though personally I don't think those should be #1 on anyone's "worst" list lol. Different strokes for different folks.

Thanks!  :)
Now the list is complete, my work here is done, I can ride away into the sunset and disappear into a legend.
Haha! I've just watched Rango again and now I'm into western mood.

No, I don't think any of those games would be the worst in anyone's list.

In all honesty I'd probably have to go with Haunted Castle because of what an ugly, unplayable POS it is.

Kickin' soundtrack, though.
Oh yeah, and also:
meat

Soda as well.
