Help a Castlevania Virgin

[eestlinc]

Dawn of Sorrow is a lot of fun on the DS.

I'm one of the few people who like Portrait of Ruin. The art didn't bother me and it was still a fun game. Plus the final battle was awesome. (SPOILER)You fight Dracula and Death at the same time!

Also Circle of the Moon for the GBA hasn't been mentioned yet. That's another fun one.

symphony of the night
aria of sorrow

I haven't played more than a few minutes of SotN, but Aria of Sorrow/Dawn of Sorrow were excellent games.

Portrait of Ruin had an interesting concept, but it kind of failed overall.

I'm a Castlevania virgin myself but why not emulate them rather than spend your money? It's really easy to emulate PS1 games nowadays, symphony of the night included. It's totally ethical because odds are you will be paying some dude on Amazon and the creators of Castlevania wont see a dime anyway.

If it means anything, SotN is on the Xbox Live Arcade Marketplace.

You can buy it from XBL and PSN, I'm sure they see profits there.

I ended up buying both Aria and Dawn of Sorrow no box no instructions from Gamestop for $14.99 a piece. Does anybody know of a website where you can print out the game box art and instruction manuals from? I'd like to have that for Dawn of Sorrow if possible.

EDIT: Sweet! Found some good box art and made a makeshift box, almost looks brand new! If I buy some glossy paper it would look just like the DS packaging.

You have a very weird way of ... trying to be a purist. Without actually .... being one lol

[Kumo]

Haha, I know it's a bad habit, but it's always cool to have a box with the art for your games I think. Here's how it turned out!

[Vyk]

That actually is pretty good lol

[Kumo]

Thanks! I wonder if it will add value to the game if I decide to sell it in the future ^_^

Would have fooled me if it wasn't for the spine and watermark :P

Just beat Aria of Sorrow and started up Dawn of Sorrow on the DS. On Aria of Sorrow, i'm at 94.5% completion. I have a few more items to get, and A LOT more souls. (SPOILER)I heard that in order to get to the Chaos Realm, you need to have certain souls equipped when you beat Graham.

What's this Chaos Realm all about?

(SPOILER)It's where you fight the TRUE last battle. Graham isn't the last boss.And the % is just map completion, not game completion.

Worth doing then? Guess I need to get those last two Souls and equip them for that battle against him so I can get to that part . . .
