Feast your eyes and ears on this monstrosity. PC MS-DOS has never had such a butchered port as this...

I honestly was scared when the first notes of what supposed to Vampire Killer played.
Later I was highly amused. Graphics looks somewhat decent, but Simon look like CookieMan and sounds / music...the horror. Just the horror.  :'(

Yeah, maybe with a better soundcard it would sound...better?  Apart from the sound though, it looked pretty decent.  I liked the little touch with Simon walking to the exit door after picking up the orb.

GAH F*CK MY DELICATE EARS OW
Also, that's a pretty long whip compared to the original. Then again, the stretching might have something to do with that.

It is precisely because it never cared, that people do care.  It's something which it's lacking, because that which it has, it has lackluster of.

Then Lords of Shadow 2 just takes a big, semi-solid, smelly, pea-green dump all over everything.

I don't know, but the best port is obviously Tiger SotN.

BEEP

That's how The Tragic Prince sounds right?

Hit stop at 1:40. My ears... I think they're bleeding.

THIS GAME NEEDS MORE SOUND CHANNELS NOW!

How not to be a dark lord: the answer to that is a terribly interesting answer that involves an almost Jedi-like adherence to keeping oneself under control and finding ways to be true to yourself in a way that doesn't encourage the worst parts of you to become dangerously exaggerated and instead feeds your better nature. Also, protip: don't fuck with Alchemy or strike up any deals with ancient Japanese Shinigami gods no matter how tempting the deal or how suavely dressed the Shinigami is.

Well, apparently, if you had a proper AdLib soundcard instead of the pc speaker, here's how it would have sounded:

Castlevania (DOS version)

That actually improves the sound by far! It reminds me of the Sega Master System or the Genesis (depending on the game you're playing).

Sounds like Genesis music. So, it's not that bad.

It also sound dissonant on some notes, even on the "good" version...
