Before I begin FFT, I visted SOTN and beat it through again. God it was such a great game. I lioved Castlevania for NEs-Snes, but SOTN Is a much better game than them. Few Times I will ever say words like that.

Though not the best castlevania ever (that title I give the the GBA version) It changed the series. The exp/level system along with the various other pickups added to the game. However it was a bit easy. I am not man enough to go through with a naked alucard game (No weapons, no magic, etc.) So I will settle for jsut beating it with Richter and calling it quits. Shall go back into the PSX hall of fame.

he had close to 9999 health or something. Only reason I even beat him was i caught him in a bug where he didn't move at all and I could just blast him repeatedly. Took me a full 3 minutes with "Alucards sword" to get him down.

The best boss in that game by far is the giant mass of zombie bodies. They re-used that boss in Aria of Sorrow on GBA. Best boss, as u attack bodies fall off... so wierd but cool.

SOTN is by far the best Castlevania, howcan you even say a GBA version is better.

Aria of sorrow was better. Essencialy Aria of Sorrow played the exact same, but had a better magic system. Plus SOTN was way to easy. All I ever had to do was get a boss in the corner and pound it with jewel knucles. Dracula was easy, with a lot of potions and a fairy familiar you never die.

HOD WAS terrible. I can see why you think gbA games suck. Try Aria of sorrow and circle of the moon. Both were really good games. Circle of the moon had a unique spell system, with combonations of cards atributes and shit. It was tough too.
