Topic: What is your favorite castlevania game?

[Thaddeus]

Dracula's Curse is my personal favorite, although I've probably played and been more influenced by Super Castlevania 4 than any other game.

Its dark atmosphere and beautiful soundtrack is just awesome. I never get bored of this game.

Agreed! Kid Dracula kicked ass too. Ever play it?

[Thaddeus]

Here is my top 10 picks:

Dracula's Curse
SCV4
Bloodlines
SotN
Simon's Quest
Castlevania
Castlevania Chronicles
CotM
Harmony of Dissonance
Rondo of Blood (original and remake)

LoI music? Eeeeeeew.....It had some good things like Lament of Innocence, Melancholy Joachim, and Castlevania Reicarnation, but everything else was too......saddening and made me feel both homicidal and suicidal cause it was all dark and Gothy, too much so even for me....

Now I changed my mind again, about EVERYTHING. I now like a lot of LoI's music and the whole game a lot more. So, I guess since I cant decide on one game, I'll make a list:
-Lament of Innocence
-Curse of Darkness
-Harmony of Dissonance
-Castlevania
-Dawn of Sorrow

There, I'm done.

Harmony has started to grow on me for some reason. I guess it's all of the old-school Vania references within the game.

After much deliberation I would have to choose:

"Classic"
-Super Castlevania IV
-Bloodlines

"Metroidvania"
-Symphony of the Night
-Aria of Sorrow

(This is an uber-hard decision. In reality, they are ALL great games in one way or another. That is why we are all here isn't it?)

Sega Saturn Dracula X: NITM.

You know what, I don't even know anymore...

Aria of Sorrow. Easily the best GBA game ever. Best Graphics, Sound, Gameplay, Replayability, etc. on the system. Has any other Castlevania game completely owned a system before or since?

[knightmere]

Aria of Sorrow definitely does not have the best graphics on the GBA.

[crisis]

Has any other Castlevania game completely owned a system before or since?

Do we really have to answer this?
