Super Castlevania 4!!

(Sometimes I think that I'm the only person that enjoys Castlevania Legends)

You probably are, haha. Probably my least favorite Castlevania (yes, I even have more fun with Haunted Castle). Although I'm not one to talk since most people think I'm crazy for thinking that Castlevania Adventure is a good game (the original, not the "remake" that's barely anything like it).

But just about everyone can agree that Belmont's Revenge is awesome. Everything great about Castlevania Adventure except with a boost of speed for those that can't stand how slow Christopher plods along in Adventure.

I liked it too!

But I didn't like the whip swing.

[Parodius Duh!]

You'd never heard of Super Castlevania IV until just recently? Color me genuinely surprised.

Jumping on this wagon, That is just damn crazy boy! SCV4 is like, the BEST Castlevania game in my book......and its mad old! no idea how you could have never heard of it, less youre a youngin'


and personally, I find the SNES Dracula X unplayable if you have access to the PCE version.

Have had Belmont's Revenge for years, but finally got from someone from the CV forums, a nice mint boxed CV Adventure. Love the game, it gets a bad rap due to how slow Chris moves, jumping requires precise timing, but otherwise solid game.

I don't think it's terrible. It's just worse than Belmont's Revenge by a substantial margin, I think.

Super Castlevania IV is one of my favorites in the series although I love it for different reasons I love other great entires. It has a different tone and feel to it that makes it really stand out on it's own unique merits, unlike Dracula's Curse, Rondo of Blood, or Bloodlines which are great for just being really well-refined Castlevania proper.

I don't think CV Adventure would get bashed so much if Stage 3 wasn't so difficult. On the part where you were climbing up, you were held back from going too far ahead, so you were always in that "make a mistake and you're dead" range. You pretty much had to play the stage perfect.

I'm another one that likes CV Legends also. I don't dislike any of the classic CV games except for Vampire Killer.

I'd tolerate Legends more if the enemies didn't regenerate the second their spawn spot is scrolled one freakin' pixel off screen and back. The vertical parts in particular are infuriating because of it, with all those stupid ghost enemies and such. It's not so much that it makes the game challenging, it's just ANNOYING.

Somehow, though I was mildly aware of Castlevania in the NES days, this was my first Castlevania game. I think I convinced my parents to buy it for me after seeing it on one of those 'game tips and reviews + crappy cartoon and game show' type TV programs.

It's my second favorite Castlevania game, very closely following Symphony of the Night. The music is still amazing.. especially: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0iuB9PQ2Cg

I've still not played any of the first 3 games..

"COME ON old-timer! Let's go!"
"HUR-RY UP! HUR-RY UP!"



*cough*



*HONK HONK*



"Get in here old man! .... I AIN'T GOT TIL JUDGMENT DAY!"



"Thank you."
"Anything for a fellow pilgrim. We're all on a quest. Sometimes we need help getting where we want to be."



"HA-CHOO!"



"Reverend Jackson P. Sayer of Dumont County, pleased to make your acquaintance."



"How far you going, Mr. Sayer?"

[Steven]

"God's country... Promise Land. Where are you heading, Mr. uh?"
"... Loomis. Haddonfield."



"Car trouble?"












"... Sort of..."






"... You're hunting it ain't ya?"






"GOD DAMN YOU MICHAEL DIE DAMN YOU!"

[Steven]

"YEAH you're hunting it all right. JUST LIKE ME."



"What are you hunting Mr. Sayer?"



"Apocalypse, End of the World, Armageddon. It's always got a face and a name.



I've been hunting the bastard for 30 years, give or take. Come close a time or two.



TOO DAAAMN CLOSE.



You can't kill Damnation, mister. IT DON'T DIE LIKE A MAN DIES."
"I know that Mr. Sayer."



"OH you're a pilgrim all right! Yeah, I saw it on your face back there in the dust. I saw it clear as breasts and blue suede shoes."
"You're sharp, Reverend."
"Speaking of which, let me tell you a story about a fellow pilgrim of ours; one that my great grandfather used to tell me....

... his name was Simon Belmont...
