symphony of the night,definitely.Probably the best in the series.

Aria and Ruin get it for me.

[Soldjermon]

my choices for the best ones? well..
SotN and DoS tops the list, hands down.
AoS, PoR and HoD would be close second.
OoE is third on the list.

what would be the choices for the worst ones? well..
it's CotM that tops the list.
Simon's Quest is a distant second.

the reasons why I chosen those like that, is mainly because of the storyline, and sometimes the gameplay; depending on which game you're talking about. I like all of the games, but my choosing of which is best( and maybe worst ), of metroidvania-style gameplay; makes it hard to do so.

so, now you know my opinions about this.

Sotn biggest and most annoying flaw is its too easy...I still think they should go back and ditch the rpg nonsense and go back to classic like megaman did.

[Battler Ushiromiya]

Megaman got the formula right with Zero, yet it's the shortest of the series thanks to a Tomino style ending to MMZ4... :/

Anywho, DoS? Higher than AoS, PoR, and OoE? What the hell? DoS was a horribly executed, pointless, and rather bland sequel of a game that, even on the GBA, had the better graphics. That's pretty damn sad, IMO.

-------------------------POLL UPDATE--------------------------

Both Polls are now very close to 30 votes.  Unfortunately the results have locked into a statistical dead heat in both polls for either first, second, or third place.  I'd hesitate to call a race when just a few more votes could make such a big difference.  Look for some versus polls if these dead heats continue...

Went with Symphony of the Night, as it is a classic.  Defines the entire genre, etc. etc.

Then I went with Order of Ecclesia, it's the most forward thinking Castleroid, in terms of gameplay and definitely doesn't hold back any punches as you start to progress farther into the game.  I like that.   The quest system, which I know didn't start in OoE, is a nice differentiation through out the game.  I also like the over world map view allowing you to progress to any level.

Love it.
