I love both Dawn of Sorrow and Portrait of Ruin, I couldn't pick a favorite. I had fun capturing all the souls in Dawn of Sorrow and upgrading weapons. Portrait of Ruin has a bunch of little quests which makes it feel like even more of a RPG. A big difference is that you control one character in DoS and two characters in PoR. You might find it easier to play DoS first so you can learn all the controls/commands while dealing with only one guy. (But I played PoR first so the order is not all that important.)

I don't think you'll be disappointed in either one, but they'd be super easy to trade for something else if you decide Castlevania is not your cuppa tea. If you're in the US, make sure you don't pay more than $20 for DoS -- Konami has re-released it at a new lower price. I was thankful for that because until then all the shops in town were charging $30 for it used.

Dawn of Sorrow is fantastic. If you can get it for $20 it is definitely worth it.

both cdos and portrait of ruin are good games,maybe you find them to be a littlie similar in the gameplay mechanics,

but are both a good experience to play.with closed eyes i recommend dawn of sorrow if you ask anyway.

Personally, I believe Portrait of Ruin to be a better game, however, you can pick of Dawn of Sorrow at a much cheaper price. It really depends on if your strapped for cash or not.

DoS is the best DS game imo. Get it first, then PoR if you want more.
