Well I've plaaaaayed.... Castlevania 1... 2.... 3....... yeah... I loved 2 when I was a kid, and I also owned 3, but I didn't like it as much... I always got stuck at this one level... I think it's the one where it starts off and a bunch of blocks are falling or something... or if I took another route, I got stuck on the pirate ship or whatever...
And then I rented the hell out of Castlevania 4 on SNES... it's my second fav. Castlevania game...
Then I bought Castlevania 64 the day it came out... and later rented LoD...
aaaaand bought Castlevania: SotN... havn't played any of the GB ones though, if there are any original ones on there besides ports... and I heard the GBA one is really good too... I wanna play it...
I never really played much of that second castlevania game on SNES... the one with richter... I heard that it was like a watered down version of some other castlevania that wasn't released in the US...
I also played castlevania chronicles... bought it, didn't like it too much, almost beat it in a couple days, but decided to return it to software etc...
On a side note, I heard that konami was talking about plans to remake other older castlevania games on various platforms... I hope they do that with that Dracula X or whatever the name of the non-watered down second SNES castlevania game was
*realizes this topic was about Contra*... umm... err... hmm *rubs chin*....
