This is what pisses me off. If Iga knows that he sucks at making 3D games, why doesn't he step down and give somebody else a shot instead of making all of the fans suffer? Castlevania has, or should I say had, so much potential.

btw. the graphic engine used in the modern 2d cv titles is 15 bit, not 16. :o

they all use a 15 bit rgb(555) palette system. cv4, dxx and everything since sotn (sotn included) uses it.

Wouldn't it be great if they actually released it on a NES cartridge?

I highly doubt they would do that considering not many people actually OWN a NES anymore. I still have mine, so it wouldn't bother me, but still, the game wouldn't sell very well. :P

Oh please. -_-;; I doubt all of the fans suffer. I'm quite sure a lot of us aren't suffering. Complaining, whining, maybe a disappointed, but very few of us are suffering:P It still does have a lot of potential, imo.

Speak for yourself. Iga has done a great job and Castlevania is still a successful franchise with massive potential, and Order of Ecclesia and Judgment both look awesome. Just because he does or says something you don't like, you think Castlevania is doomed?

Gotta agree with Thomas Belmont here. IGA's driving the series straight to the ground. Judgment looks fun but just because it isn't a serious Castlevania game (Plus I like a few casual fighting games). Ecclesia I'm not going to be having any part of. Might borrow it from a sorry sap who was foolish enough to buy it, but even $3 on a rental will be too much for it.

And CV64 felt so much better after being tormented by the godawful games that are LOI and COD.

Hahaha.. You seriously amuse me every time you post. Thank you for that.

Though I do respect your opinions, your sense of optimism is absolutely disgusting. Oh, I'm sooo sorry you were tormented by playing through LoI, and CoD! I am here crying, and playing a violin for you, seriously! May I suggest you play through the atrocity you call "Castlevania: Legends" again with your retconned character "Sonia Belmont"? Maybe that will help you feel better after godawful Dawn of Sorrow? Or Maybe Belmonts Revenge? Hmmmmm?

I've said it time and time again; If it wasn't for IGA, Castlevania wouldn't be alive today, but maybe that's what you want? Seeing as you think everything being released is pure trash right now. To say $3 is too much to rent a DS game is utterly pathetic, and I won't even comment on that.. Oh, wait. I already did!

If anyone here is a poor sap, it is you. Thank you for reading.

Yeah and thanks for the trolling. If I don't like the way the series is going, then I don't like the way the series is going, and I'm not going to be expected to keep my mouth shut about it while everyone praises these sub-par games.

I think it's about time that the CV games went back to the old formula like Belmont's Revenge, Legends, CV4, CV3, etc. IGA's the reason that CV is alive today, yes, but only because he made Symphony. He's not doing the series much good by recycling old material, cautiously and timidly approaching new ideas and expecting us to think it's as great as that game.

I really hope this comes to pass.

I'd imagine this would be a lot less risky financially, so it should be easier to market this to the hardcore crowd.

Although, personally I'd rather see SNES level graphics.

I wasn't trolling, dear. I was merely stating my opinions.

Right, telling me that I'm pathetic for not wanting to spend $3 on a game, mocking me, and calling me a sap isn't trolling.

Seriously, and you're known for this in other threads too. This is your verbal warning. Stop.
