best music
best atmosphere
alucard? Check.
GLASS CHUCKING? AWWWWWW yeah
the best drops and sense of exploration? check
I'm still partial to AoS and PoR but SotN is just so :)
The one thing SotN lacks is difficulty
-
Agreed.
-
the whole upside down castle is distinguished mentally-challenged
-
the upside down castle can be tough as hell some times
-
There shouldn't be any other answer...this is FACT. ;)
IF Aria Of Sorrow had visuals on the same level as SOTN AND a soundtrack of the same quality, it would be the better game in my eyes, but SOTN as the total package still tops the list.
-
Only Castlevania game I played.
-
Agreed.
-
SOTN > AOS > COTM > POR > DOS
-
SOTN > AOS > COTM > POR > DOS
wtf,
sorry its
SOTN>POR>DOS>AOS>>>>>COTM
-
No. Aria of Sorrow has better level design than either Dawn or Portrait of ruin. Better graphics do not make a better Metroidvania.
-
none of you guys listed Harmony of Dicksonice, which is clearly better than any of them
-
Harmony of Dissonance is the worst one.
-
wr0ng, i beat it again the other day, still as amazing as i remember it
-
HoD has an awesome soundtrack
-

You suck at games.
-
HOD > The Darkness
-
Advent Rising > Harmony of Dissonance
-
:bow
-
I should replay AoS, I love that game and it loves me
-
SotN > PoR = AoS > CoM >>>>>>>>> DoS >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> HoD

Entire? You can do it in like 10 minutes with a direct path straight to Dracula. That's how I did it for the achievement on XBLA.
-
I don't want to go to Gamefaqs.
I started playing SotN this break. How the fuck do you get the 2nd castle? I beat Richter and the game ended...
-
you need the gold and silver rings, to open the secret passage at the clock tower, which gives you some glasses, when equipped, let you see something in the Richter fight that wasn't there before
one of the rings is past the long hallway filled with spikes, you need the spike breaker armor to pass it, which you get in the underground cavern
-
Rondo of Blood is fuck awesome, but it's not a Metroidvania.

because i don't want to be told anything else except how to get the 2nd castle. if i go to gamefaqs, i'll have to search for what to do. then i'll see all the shit i'm missing and stuff. i'd rather not be spoiled about that stuff.
-
fair enough!
SotN :bow
you aint shit if you dont get 200/200
-
i still need to do that bloodlines achievement where you have to beat dracula without getting hit
-
thats pretty easy, theres a secret room before you meet Drac, (smash the bricks above the doorway inside to reveal a switch) you can go in and out and grind for hearts, (get around 100) when fighting Drac grab the holy water (in a candle on left hand side of the boss screen iirc) and do the 'item crash' (Y button) its a super holy rain attack and Drac cant handle it, he'll scream and cry
do it a couple of times and hes toast
-

easy, you don't even need to do the wussy holy water method (or: i'm a noob, let me show you why)
it's all patterns, just whip the regular fireballs, then duck the top orb, then jump over the bottom one
when he changes, stick to his feet so his fireballs dont hit you, then simply slide under him when he jumps and repeat process
you'll get the hang of it, or hit up youtube
