MODERATION: *snip snip*
Finally.
If the game would have looked at least half of like those official Konami screens looked, then it probably would have been more enjoyable.

You probably have to join the forums to download it though.

Thanks for sharing, but i don't think that it is legal to have the link here.
-
It isn't?
Isn't this Kurt's forum? I thought he allowed such things.
BTW, you can play the game on that mobile phone emulator thingie for the PC.
-
It's warez. The same case as if someone went and started posting isos for loi or cod, or the lame ds games.
If the legal fags attack they won't care if it's old or on the site. They'll still get the site closed down, especially since it's hosted for free. Hell, last time I heard the emulation section was supposed to be removed, but it wasn't possible because of some server bug.

No it isn't... I'd just take it off myself if I were you. Less trouble that way.
-
...I wonder which part of that download you're supposed to put in your phone...
...not that I'd ever download illegal stuff like dat!
:-[
*leaves*
EDIT:
Jesus. Christ. This game blows. It's even worse than I imagined.
-
btw. the game would've looked better if it really looked like those beta shots they posted there. The lower resolution made it look much worse.

Wow, it looks nothing like those screens.
The graphics are SO tiny. At least on my phone (Sony Ericsson w880i).
-
Those aren't beta shots, those are "Public Relations" shots.
Konami has over the top omg awesome graphics shots on their mobile section for some of their games, but when you put the game it's nothing like that.
-
Hey ReyVGM, welcome to the forums.
Yup this is Kurt's forum, but links to warez or any form of emulation is illegal, so yeah, none of that.
Link's gone now :3 No ROMs or warez links, please.

Doesn't every company do that?
-
Hey Clara Elite.
Ok, no problem. Since Kurt allows that on his HG101 forum I thought the same rules applied here.
-
Get a 240x320 resolution dump of the game and it will look like that I bet. There's usually different versions of games for different screen sizes as the game has to accomodate many phones.

Yeah it's still there you just gotta know the trick to access it. And why legally faggots bitch about 20 year old games that haven't been available for purchase in eons is beyond me. You want people to stop dling games stop closing down emulation sites and trying to stop it that way and get the games rereleased on current consoles or for the pc with added extras and possibly diff versions of the old games w/ updated graphics. That would cut down on alot of the so called "illegal" rom downloading right there. The only old castlevania game that has ever been rereleased if memory serves is the original one. Some of the best titles haven't had a "legal" release at all since there intial one back in the 80's or 90's and I for one ain't gonna shill out the 70 dollars to get a 20 year old cart like the crapula X title on the supernes.

Indeed... I'm one for remakes... though most aren't. I think thats the main reason for the whole online dl thing now.

I'm cool with remakes as long as they are like the Drac X chronicles remake and are only a diff. take on the original game. don't really care for remakes that are meant to replace the original game. (like the remade sw trilogy)

I don't know what kinds of phones you guys have but this is exactly how it looks on mine. *shrug*

What do y'know, I have the same phone! I think...
Anyway, I also bought OoS, and I regret nothing! Almost... I don't think the game was total crap. I think the death animation where Death appears was awesome and the frequent references to LoI were pretty cool.

Just like I said.
One thing..what brand is your phone? Perhaps we can try something ;)

It's one of the new Chocolate phones. Verizon VX8550. What do you propose?
-
I have a Sony but I also have Cennt. Wireless, so I can't get the game. XD

Trust me, your not missing out. Like I said, the death aniation and LoI references are cool, but its otherwise purely frustration.

this is how it looks on a normal cellphone (minus the font and lifebars, those are larger), in the official playable version on the maker's page and inside the files.
if your phone's picture is this large you have some weird phone there. it's display would be bigger than a ds screen, that resolution looks more like a pocket pc than a cellphone.
-
In Reply To #24
On my phone it's even smaller than that, Desmond is about half the size of that sprite. It looks like it's zoomed out or something... Also, it doesn't fill the entire screen so that may have something to do with it. There are fat black borders at the top and bottom.

I don't really get what you mean exactly. You mean like the same game but looks diffferent? I'm all for any kind of changes as long as it doesn't make it worst.
-
In Reply To #26
I think the person meant that they like 'faithful' remakes: the ones that are pretty much the exact same game, just a few tweaks that make it better, like graphics or minor tweakage. (Like the remake of Kirby Super Star on the DS that's coming out.)
But if they make a 'remake' that, while slightly like the original, are mostly very different (they omit this, change a lot of that...), then they're not liked as much.
And in certain cases, I agree.

Yup that's what I meant I like remakes that improve on the first game and have someone else's own touches but aren't made like George lucas likes to do as replacements for the original game.

What are you talking about? 240x320 is almost a standard resolution for most phones in the past year or so. Those pictures are how it looks on those phones.
-
maybe in moonland where they have those weird vodaphone things that are more like handhelds now than phones to talk. here in europe the standard cellphone screen size is 120x160.
and guess what, the official version of the game on the official site no less also has the same scale of the sprites, so if you really have such huge phone it's probably resized+filtered. prove me wrong, do a dump of the game from your awesome phone and pm the file so I can hack it to compare the content.
-
In Reply To #30
I don't know where you got the dump that was the source of that picture you posted, but the game looks as clean and smooth as the original pictures you posted. The resolution on my phone is 320 X 240 and I'm sure that has everything to do with it.
-
In Reply To #31
i got it from the creator's official website. i ripped the demo version that was on their original site. then the second dump was linked by the topic creator, and it was identical minus the time limit
the screenshot however is just one of the images resized to default cellphone size, since i can't get this thing working on a pc.
oh also 2/10, nice try at trying to cause a shitstorm but failed. UNTIL YOU PROVE ME WRONG BY RIPPING THE GAME YOU HAVE AND POSTING IT.
:o

Perhaps he does have one of those phones with the large screen, and maybe the game is set up to notice the larger screen and show more... content?
I'm not even sure about this one. All I know is on my phone it would look teensy unlike those screenshots (which are a lot sharper and cleaner... not to mention bigger).
I could be wrong.
-
that's why i want proof. until he proves it i'm calling it bullshit and the game on his zomg big cellphone just a filtered+resized version. :P
hell, I don't even need the game itself, just the data files will be enough (the ones with no extension).

Uh, shitstorm? Dude, get over yourself. I was simply telling you how the game appears on my phone. If that constitutes me trying to start a "shitstorm," well, maybe you need to get away from the computer and go outside or something.
First of all, the version of the game I have was bought thru Verizon. It's a possibility that there are different versions of the game for different providers based on what phones they have available. My phone is pretty new (released within the last year or so) so obviously it's going to have more updated features and hardware. Unfortunately the user is locked out of the memory on this newer version of the phone (Verizon has also crippled the Bluetooth settings on their newer phones). I can't even get to it using BitPim, so no dice there.
BTW, I live in the US, so what's "standard" in Europe doesn't really apply to me.

too bad you missed the smiley at the end, maybe then you'd understand the last line was a joke. ::)

In Reply To #36
Well, the wording conjoined with the smiley you chose didn't say such. Pardon me if I got it wrong, but this isn't the first time this has happened. You need to work on your sarcasm. ;)
-
He can't rip the game for you, Verizon uses BREW not Java.
You live in Europe and your phone has that low of a resolution?
-
In Reply To #38
My phone's around half year old.
I looked online at the prices of those 320x240 phones, and no thanks, $600+ for a cellphone just so I could dunno, browse the internets with better resolution? I certainly don't need big display to talk to people for this price. :-X
If I wanted something with a nice screen to play games on, i'd get a psp/ds, which both have better game libraries, control, power etc. :o :P
Edit: Oh and can we finally see Desmond on the top banner? on those big screens he's easily larger than others so he may need some readjusting, but he's more canon than say Vincent who never even left the design boards before his game was scrapped, yet he's still there. :o
-
Yeah good point. Why is Victor up there, and not Soleiyu??
-
Alright, i'll bite.

And keep in mind this is from a phone my parents got free on contract. Unlocked it wouldn't even cost more than $200, so I dont even know where you're pulling these fancy strings from. 240x320 is outdated as a cellphone resolution nowdays. ;)

keep in mind, i live in europe not usa. everything's overpriced here, especially imports.
a cellphone like that costs 1950 pln here, which is more less $600.

Well Soleil was never playable, that's why he's not up there. But then again, neither was Victor because he doesn't even have a game. Desmond is playable.
And where's my Hanz/Roberto? :o

You guys have much, much better cellphones than we do, unless you live in some strange, remote part of europe..Nokias are imports where you are?

A lot of the cellphones are imported here. Mine was imported from Malaysia according to the info on the box which i still kept for some reason.
We don't exactly have that high technology level here.

My girlfriend had a cool Ericsson phone (pre-Sony!) that she used while she lived in Italy. It was a really cool phone, and she wound up going with some company over there and they locked it on her. Bastards.
I like how if you don't pay your bill over there, you can still RECEIVE calls even if you can't make them. Cell phone providers have us by the balls here in the US. :P
I like my phone though.

Europe is 2 years ahead of America in cellular technology. ;)

The richer parts of it like germany maybe. Europe, unlike usa isn't one huge country made of states, but a lot of independent countries who don't really give a damn about how others fare.
