Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow

Excellent, but dissapointing!

Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow is I assure you one of the best games you can get on a ds today. The graphics are smooth, the sound is catchy and the gameplay is nearly excellent. The only thing about Castlevania that ticks me off is that they could of done so much more to make this a more exciting game. They didn't use all of the ds's capabilieties. They could of used the microphone and why couldn't they find out more ways to use the touch screen. I mean come on. Yeah Castlevania is cool game and all but drawing magic symbols and breaking crystals blocks is kind of lame. Even though I am slightly dissapointed the endearing storyline, the excellent graphics, the music, and nearly perfect gameplay, make this game the best ds game their is today.
