Yeah, SotN really kind of ruined the series in some ways because while the other Metroidvania titles are still pretty solid entries, they aren't quite up to par with everything you can do in SotN. The game set the bar really high.

Thankfully for me, I started way back with the 8-bit entries and Classicvania titles, so revisiting those styles of games has been really interesting. Of course, if this Castlevania collection was going to be the definitive version of the Classicvania titles, we're missing Haunted Castle, the Game Boy version of Kid Dracula, Castlevania Chronicles, and last but not least, Rondo of Blood which was likely skipped over for the port of Dracula X Chronicles recently released on PS4 as well.

You know, while most people would argue that Castlevania never worked terribly well in 3D, the stigma was never as harsh as it was for Mega Man and Sonic in my observations. I've heard nothing but good things about the two entries for the N64 as long as you take it for it was and not try to imagine it being perfect. Same deal with Lament of Innocence and Curse of Darkness for the PS2.

Hell even the God of War style reboot for the PS3/360 wasn't too bad.
