Pretty much the best Castlevania game for the GBA.

The game was really fun to play around. The game is very balance in different ways. It had a really good story to it, excellent gameplay, great graphics, great sound. The gameplay really hits the mark for the Castlevania RPG series. The controls are very easy to use in the game. The enemies and bosses provide a decent challege without being too hard to beat. The platforming is easy to handle. The only beef if soul collecting. I was it would not take me forever to get certain souls or collecting them all. Other then that, the gameplay is done very well.

The graphics look very good on the GBA system. The enemies and bosses and characters are very nicely detailed in the game. The backgrounds look awesome to look and enviroments are nicely done. The animation moves very fluidly in the game. No problem here.

The sounds are nicely done in the game. The music does not sound like it loops hardly at all, and it is good that the gameplay is fast-paced. The other sounds are nicely done in this game. Maybe one thing that could have been changed is the voice overs. It would have been neat if the character voices including Soma would have been in english. But otherwise the sound is good.

The value is that it is were a buy. A good reason is for the other game Aria of Sorrow since if you start a new game with in Sorrow with this game you start with certain souls and items. So I recommend this game to both Castlevania fans and other videogamers alike.

    Yet another Castlevania quest to stop Dracula results in yet another very fun game.

    Castlevania warps to the future in the latest Dracula-busting sequel--different time period, same type of characters and environments. Does a shift in time period hurt the series? Hardly. With the setting 2035, the ti... Read Full Review
