I don't really mind the borders around the game. It's not really that big of a deal..

Fitted? The prince of darkness talking about the Bible? Fuck no. And yeah, I was talking about the Japanese script, which was endlessly raped by both translations. :/

CORRECTION! The prince of Darkness who was part of teh crusades.

Thats what Lament of Innocence said right? I get the games confused sometimes.

I never played Lament of Crap, and I still don't see why the incarnation of all evils should say anything related to the Bible at all.

[Kale]

I don't see why not, the bible is a text. Not to mention it has some very nice quotes.

Perhaps, but then again why does he have a Chapel adorned with crosses and religious imagery in his Castle in the first place?
And I liked Lament of Innocence.

It might be nice. Still it wasn't at all in the original dialogue, so I don't see why he would ever say something like that while he's dying. Really, I don't see the point of his many quotes when the original character had NONE.

Probably because it's a heretic Chapel, I guess. I mean, how could a holy place be full of monsters?

Apparently some of us haven't noticed that Castlevania pretty much revolves around the Church and the Christian ideas of Heaven and Hell, good vs evil....which would actually make sense that they mention the Bible...

Dracula in Castlevania used to be religious and revered God (why else would he be a tactician for an army fighting in the CRUSADES?). I'm pretty sure he remembers quite a bit about the Bible.

[crisis]

The reason he said a quote from the Bible was to show that he still remembers his life as Mathias, despite the fact that he has forsaken God (or vise-versa). Atleast, that's the way I see it.

That's what the translators thought, not him. There's a big difference there.

Finally! I have the game! It took so long to get here from Canada - shipped on Oct 25th and came today - Nov 5th. The game is so amazing :-) I have already played half of Rondo before so I knew what to expect - but I am very very satisfied to have this great compilation of Castlevania games!

P.S. I almost kissed the postman when I encountered him with the game..nah,just kidding But I had a huge grin from the moment I realized the game was here until I opened it and put in the PSP and began to plaaaaaaaay. I am still in heaven
