I'm a few years into fatherhood now, and my kids are have become fascinated by my games. They sat back on the couch while I fired up DXC on my Trinitron and watched me slay the undead with the same facination as Disney movies or Nick Jr. Of course my girls love to talk throughout..

And so on and so forth.... More recently my kids are watching over my shoulder while I play Final Fantasy IV on my DS, but they know a new Castlevania is coming and they're stoked. Anyway just thought I'd attempt a thread about sharing Castlevania with our nearest and dearest, the next gen, girlfriends, younger sibling gamers etc... Any takers?
