Dissapointing review, not that it'll disuade me from completely enjoying this game.

I wouldn't let any review dissuade me from the game either... I would think. I will be the ultimate one to judge it anyways. Btw that Drawn to Life game looks pretty fun too!  ;D

The problem with the reviewer is that he's such a mainstreamer, it's farting out of his ass. People like him are the reasons we've been getting super easy CV games.

Quote from: gameinformer
That said, if you've somehow been able to retain your love of high-difficulty side-scrolling action, you'll love this.

Looks like I'm good, then.

ROFL, he bitched about -Rondo- difficulty? Holy Christ... he'd have a heart attack on CV1/CV3.

That's the same quote I was going to use.  I think this review is fantastic news!  Rondo was among the easier classic CVs, and the parts we've seen so far were either spot on or dumbed down from the original version a little bit.  Yet watching people who didn't grow up with the series play classic CVs shows how insanely tough they are to the uninitiated.  So I have nothing to fear after reading this.

He reviewed the game based entirely of the difficulty level. What a significantly untalented piece of shit.

Wow that really sucks. GI usually seems to be one of the more level headed publications.  It's a shame they let this turd review it.

 If my memory recalls, weren't the majority of the "big wig video game reviewers" complaining of the recent Castlevania games being too easy?! Now too hard huh? lolo. Ok.

Make up your simpleton reviewr minds please and like it was mentioned, shouldn't he be worried more about other things in the game to reivew. Other than just difficulty? u_u

Indeed. Gotta love his condescending comment about 'growing up'. As if challenging platformers are childish somehow. Awful review, if you could even call it that.

Also gotta love his comment about design in games evolving. For the most part, I'll take 2D sidescrollers over newer games any day, and nostalgia has absolutely nothing to do with that statement.
Oh yeah, and also:

Soda as well.
