    While I have love for all three, Contra is definitely my favorite. I imagine that Castlevania will probably win this poll, though.

    Out of these three, I picked Castlevania, although my preferred Konami franchise is Parodius!

    Castlevania III is just too good. Gradius has some good stuff too, but nothing touching Castlevania III, in my opinion. Castlevania 1, Bloodlines, Rondo of Blood, etc. are all nearly as good, too.

    Oh crap, dude. The first two (sorta the third one too) in that series are amazing. Beats the pants off Parodius, now that I think about it.

    Very tough choice, they're all quality series, especially the early installments in the NES era. I think I'd have to go with Castlevania, probably had the most quality games out of the three.

    Castlevania from the three choices given, but Silent Hill is my real favorite.

    I know what you mean. It was the video game that I got for Christmas with the NES, so I have a special love for the series and that game in particular.

    Frogger and Gyruss and Time Pilot are the best of Konami.
    But as far as your choice goes...castlevania tops

    Out of those 3, Castlevania.

    No Metal Gear?
