Title: Game Informer scores Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles
Post by: Smooth Groove on September 16, 2007, 05:23:56 PM
7, 7.25

 :(  Lower than they score Lair.  Sucks.  That was one of my most anticipated PSP games of the year.  It was probably hampered by technical problems since both games on that disc are considered classics.

It was a better game than Mother 3. Ditto MMPU.

I disagree

it was an insult to anyone who had played the original mmx on snes imo

megaman powered up is too much like the classic megaman series for me to find appealing nowadays, fuck chibi as well

I don't trust GI because they tend to overrate games.  Seeing GI gives C:DX a 7 makes me worried because it could likely be even worse.  I love my PSP since I bought it again this summer.   Nowadays I play the PSP much more than the DS (also bought in the summer) which was entirely not what I expected.

It was a touch easier, they retconned the story (for the better to be honest) and remixed some item locations and a couple of the last levels. The visuals were somewhat muddled but I still feel to see how the game was an insult.

And of course MMPU is too much like the classic Megaman series, its a fucking remake of Megaman 1 with what Inafune claims (I don't believe him) is the art style he always wanted. The hope was they'd be popular enough to remake all the games in that style (and I get goosebumps of thinking how bad ass a remade MM6 would be) but that didn't happen.

The game could rule, the game could suck--I don't think GI's scores are any indication of anything.
