Castlevania is notorious for having great music

I like the victory dances he does after each boss battle hahaha

The movement in this game is so stylish.

This game looks freaking beautiful. Its definitely one of the best looking Genesis titles. I had no clue they made a genesis castlevania game.

One of my favorite Castlevanias! It is admittedly rough around the edges compared to some of the other classics in the series, but it just plays so exceptionally well! Certainly very challenging too, but in a fun, learning-experience sort of way. Also, some of the best music in the series too (Michiru Yamane's first time composing for a Castlevania!) I understand a lot of people hate the Mega Drive's sound chip but I am a sucker for FM synthesis... it's so clanky and sharp sounding and I love it

I agree. It truly feels like an arcade Castlevania experience (well, only fully arcade if they keep a level timer :p) Also, a lot of people hate the Mega Drive soundchip because it's apparently the hip thing to do with them.... and SNES fanboys. I do think the sound effects need a little work though; most are recycled from Contra Hard Corps (Same sound engine) and sound out of place, but they're still good SFX.... just not the best uses of them.

The FM chip just adds this nice twang to the sounds of the Sega's games. I've yet to play Contra Hard Corps but I've seen many games utilize the sound chip wonderfully!

I'm going to sound uneducated, but what is the difference between Eric and John? They seem the same to me

@sdgdhpmbp

Ай бұрын

In basic terms: Eric's spear gives him the super jump and diagonal up+upwards attack from the ground. John's whip only has a diagonal up attack while jumping, which can be used to attack higher enemies but it's mostly for swinging off ceilings. Eric's super subweapon is a fullscreen multihit blast. John's super subweapon is a homing magic stream that can hit 3-4 times. A tiny difference to notice when playing both is John's whip swing is slower than Eric's spear stab. From a casual POV, Eric is much easier to use than John. For TAS purposes the difference is small, but John's clear time is faster than Eric's by 5 seconds.

Since 19:05 rom glitch?

The genesis sound is strong in this game. Makes me wonder how it would have sounded on a SNES?

These same fanboys also completely ignore the faults of the SNES (lower resolution, worse sprite engine, worse CPU, limited sound RAM, etc) and praise it even at its absolute worst on SNES videos because yay better colors.

Sorry Megadrive fanboys, but this is one of the weaker Castlevanias. The level layout sucks, the frigging NES had more variety in the charset and a boss rush to make the endgame longer without adding content? Really? Some nice demo-esque graphic tricks, i give the devs that, but the overall game just stinks when compared to the way earlier released Super Castlevania 4.

Although I am a Super Castlevania IV fan myself (my favorite classicvania!) you cannot deny that this is one of the better playing games of the classics. This game was also at least more difficult than IV, if you're into that sort of thing. I also have to disagree with your opinion on the level design in some regards... this game experimented with some more interesting platforming segments and the fact that there are some minor alternative routes you can take based on character choice is very cool to me. A lot of the level environments were fascinating too (scaling the Tower of Pisa? That's pretty cool...) Also this game definitely has more (or at least the same) in the charset than the NES games. Lastly I personally didn't mind the boss rush at the end, it was done in SCVIV so why wasn't it an issue there? Sure there are more bosses in the Bloodlines boss rush, but at least all of the bosses you have to fight are balanced appropriately, and Death is a pretty fair boss with some fun to avoid attacks. I would agree if you said Bartley's boss fight is unnecessary, though (it's really easy).
