I just bought this game for my brother for his birthday. I cant wait to play it. Oh, ive never played a Castlevania game before, does that really matter? Is this a good one to start with?

I would have started with Castlevania: Lament of Innocence.

I played it about a year back, it was really good. I'd give it a 9/10.

but hey, that one could kick major bootay!

EDIT: I just noticed, this is in "Handhelds" sorry for the stupid response.

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night was an awesome game.

It already came out? I miss these old school 2D Castlevania games ;[

Aria of Sorrow was great. I wish I had a DS now. haha.

I hate the artwork for the game though.

Hated the artwork for Aria of Sorrow? Thought was nice. Kinda pissed how Dawn of Sorrow went all mainstream anime-ish in style...although the intro movie is rather cool.

no, the art style for Dawn of Sorrow. The characters look stupid.. and like you said, mainstream anime-ish. I love the original Castlevania artist (whoever it is). Especially his work for Lament of Innocence.

Apparently Alucard is a playable character after you beat DoS.

Just gotta figure out what that pesky 0.2% is that I have to do.

Well, I must say im quite enjoying this game so far. Its nice to go back and play something that is new, yet feels old school like Castlevania. Im not very far into it yet, but I just might have become a Castlevania fan allready.

But better than any Metroid? Hardly.
