Topic: Any Details on new DS title yet?

[The Last Belmont]

What is this all about? Wolfman, Serio isn't trying to force you to believe DXX cannot substitute Rondo, it's just that SotN was made with Rondo in mind. If you believe otherwise, fine, but resorting to childish insults isn't helping.
Agree to disagree, or something.

I agree, if you like XX better wolf play that one.

I just don't understand why everyone hates DXX so much....it plays just like any other Castlevania game. It may not be exactly the same as Rondo, but I like it better that way. It's 2 completely different games. If Konami did release Rondo in the states, I don't think people would like it half as much as they do because its such a special find now. It's a great game and I think everyone would still like it, but it doubt it would have the same hype that it has today.
So, be glad DXX isn't exactly the same as Rondo, because (As much as I like XX) because it makes Rondo look better in comparison .

XX just doesn't have the same feel to me as the others, and the art is below castlevania standards. It also takes out the fair element in the dracula fight by having bottomless pits in it. The music also aside from a few tracks I really didn't care for. The ending is sort of confusing the first run through cuz there's no talking it's a big visual experience. There's fun to be had in XX don't get me wrong but it just feels incomplete when I play it.

I dont think I've played XX, I thoght I did.... but now that I think on it, I don't think I did. I played Vampire's Kiss, man, Dracula in that was god awful. Unless they are one and the same...... but if they are..... I don't remember that castle thing in the background of that ss taht Serio gave up there.

But then again, I don't remember alot from that game, just that Dracula was a blue thing and you can fall into holes while fighting him.

Wow, it's HILARIOUS how OT this went, mainly because you long-time castlevania fans and forum nerds are so easy to argue about crap.  :  LOL!!!!

I was going to say that too. And like the other topic(regarding the Official Konami Timeline), it seemed to be steered out of control into yet another "Wolfman Jake's defense for Dracula XX" topic, which this and the other were clearly not about.

[Gunlord]

So, uh...any details on the new DS title yet?

Vampire's Kiss is the European release of XX

[Profbeanburrito]

But no, nothing new on the DS front. I'm hoping something...even one screen shot by the end of the month

Yeah, but its not like that will be accurate. I saw some preliminary shots of other recent CVs and they were not like the real game.

[Thaddeus]

Oh btw:

A second dracula's castle in dracula xx once you reach the final level? Could it be... an alternate reality? *gasp*

Hahahaha. How could they have missed that?

[Wolfman Jake]

Wow, some of you guys are priceless.

If you haven't already played through much of Dawn of Sorrow, you might want to stop now and pick up the Castlevania Double Pack for Gameboy Advance.

[CVfan13]

Hahahaha. How could they have missed that?

ROTFLMFAO!!!!! I can't believe I didn't see that before!! That is hilarious!!
