Just swap 1 with 2 for me.

Top 3:
1) OoE
2) AoS
3) PoR (gameplaywise, the plot sucked)

I don't get why we need a rule about not starting favourites threads in the first place, if we aren't allowed to discuss what Castlevania games we like and why then what are we meant to discuss? what Castlevania games we hate?
I can understand not wanting a ton of threads where people just post their latest favourites list but couldn't you just ask members not to respond to those kinds of topics with lists instead of banning it's discussion altogether.
-
How about a more organized approach to this? instead of banning "what's you favourite..." topics make a big loud sticky thread named something like "The official What's your favourite thread" in the first message you write a modified rule that says all these types of questions go only on that topic and put an index linking to the replies with all the different questions the users make so no one will repeat them, they just pick it from the index or make a new one.
That way when we get bored we have the option of going there and answer the questions of the newer users for a while. This won't stop it completely because there's always someone that fails to see it until after they wrote the topic but it'll help to keep it more easygoing on the newbies and the ones that actually want to discuss these type of topics.
Of course I refrain from making this suggestion in case it has been done before and didn't work.
-
Finding it hard to choose between Aria of Sorrow and Order of Ecclesia, but I'll go with the former.
-
hard one..AoS and HoD
-
Belmont's Revenge. It has a very peculiar atmosphere to it, partly because of the stark Game Boy minimalism inherent to the platform, which is something I have a great fondness for. It makes me want to look past the obvious and immerse myself in the world it depicts, in all its monochromatic glory. There are so many things that build it a strong, individual identity: unique enemy designs, stage concepts otherwise unexplored elsewhere in the series, the quaint presence of the themed castles, and perhaps most enduringly, the limitations-shattering soundtrack. Tracks like Praying Hands and Castle #2 contain such immense mystery and depth of expression that I can't even fathom it.
-
1.DXC
2. The double pack (it counts)
3. CotM
-
OoE defiantly ^^
-
Aria of Sorrow, by far. That game had an incredible atmosphere.
-
Aria of Sorrow and Belmont's Revenge.
-
Harmony of Dissonance, closely followed by Aria of Sorrow.
-
Successor's favorite handheld title is Harmony of Dissonance?? I would've never guessed.
Does Simon's Quest Tiger Watch count as a handheld?
-
It's annoying how people act like I go gushing about Harmony of Dissonance all the time, or something.
"Oh, The Successor! Yeah, that Harmony of Dissonance guy!"
I only ever talk about it when it's relevant, and it's not like it's the only Castlevania game I discuss or like.
I can only imagine this 'Great Defender' title I've somehow been stuck with on this forum has something to do with my liking Harmony of Dissonance, which is dumb to me, because I don't often give enough of a damn what people like or think about games to be a Great Defender.
-
Why are you getting all defensive, bro? I was obviously being sarcastic, sheesh. HoD is an ok game.
-
It's a tie between Belmont's Revenge and Harmony of Dissonance for me.
Puwexil put it well regarding Belmont's Revenge.
Normal mode in HoD is a little boring due to it being too easy, but in hard mode you are faced with a better challenge, so I mostly just play hard mode. I love the eerie atmosphere throughout the game, the soudntrack(quality and all, I feel the soundtrack really adds to the experience of HoD), the enemy designs, a lot of the bosses, the subweapon and magic system... It's just a great game to me.
-
Ooe.
-
AoS.
-

Hate to rain on your parade, but, you kinda do.
OoE is my favorite of the portables. AoS is the second I suppose. I do have a soft spot for HoD, but it fails badly in play control, music, and sprites versus Aria. CotM has it's quirks too but I think that one is more solid than HoD, even if more bland than the average CV title. DoS was fairly meh, but Julius mode saved it so much. For me it bumps it just a bit higher than CotM. PoR I don't even want to think about. It had so much potential and then it was just shit in the end. So to summarize in order;
OoE
AoS
DoS
CotM
HoD
PoR
-
Probably Circle of the Moon. Not entirely sure why, either. I did really like its version of Vampire Killer, too.
-
CotM
HoD
AoS
but all 3 are really great, all with their own flavor
-
DoS was fairly meh, but Julius mode saved it so much.
So true.

i rescind my previous use of the word "ok" describing Successor's favorite handheld cv, harmony of Dissonance, as I agree it contains a distinct unusualness which awards it a unique feel amongst other feelings..

LOL at the last one. So.... much.... furniture. Must.... build nicely presented room in this castle of chaos.
Why is Juste farting lightning out of his ass by the way? :P
-
Difficult question. I'm only gonna go with what I've played (which is everything except the tiger handheld)
1) AoS
2) Belmont's Revenge
3) PoR
My least favorite has to be the cell phone one, followed by CotM.
