Posibly some of the old ones?
A tie between Castlevania: Bloodlines and Super Catlevania IV. These were the first two Castlevania games I ever played and they have a sort of special value.
I want to play Symphony of the Night first before I decide, since every castlevania game has been compared to it.A-LowSymphony of the night is to Castlevania as Resident Evil 4 is to Resident Evil. It's something totally different from anything that's preceded it to the point that some people argue that SotN isn't a Castlevania game because it's so radically different. Which is the same thing a lot of people have said about RE4.

true dat
I wanna but my two sense in and say Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is the best, I still play it over and over to date. Alucard is one sick vampire slayer and I think they should make another Castlevania where he's the star and bring back Trevor Belmont to play along side. I just don't understand why they don't make more 2D Castlevanias, I think they're better. Guess I'm just old school.Squall303They did bring back Trevor Belmont for Curse of Darkness, but that dummy IGA made a character that wasn't even like Alucard, except for the part that he used to serve Dracula, got tired of helping him try to plunge the world into eternal darkness and turned good! I'm somewhere in the middle on the whole 3D 2D Castlevania debate, since I haven't played all the 2D games in the series yet.
Symphony of the Night is the best Castlevania game in mybook and opinion, and I could play that game over and over again because it's such an awesome game with the immense stroy and all that! They should at least try and make 1 final 2D Castlevania game for the consoles, but I strongly doubt that's going to happen anytime soon.
Symphony of the knight was a triumph that all the games since have been trying to emulate.
I still play it every once in a while.

My top 5:
1. Aria of Sorrow
2. Symphony of the Night
3. Dawn of Sorrow
4. Bloodlines
5. Circle of the Moon
I think it would be:
2D
1 Castlevania Symphony of the night (Revolutionary gameplay, RPG elements, Classic castlevanis 2d scrollin, super soundtrack BEST SOLD)
2 Castlevania 3 (Same as before, just a matter of personal opinion =>)
3 Super Castlevania 4 (The best "remake" and gameplay that even NOW its rare to see such as a multidirectional whip)
4 Aria-Dawn of Sorrow ( Good gameplay and good music, i put them in a tie since theyre inovative yet very much SOTN style)
5 Rondo of blood. (borh original and the psp remake)
3D
1 Castlevania Lament of Innocense (what else can i say?)
2 Castlevania Curse of darkness
3 Castlevania 64 (lets face it it was fun)
IMHO this would be the ranking wha do you think??
Probably Castlevania III, I loved the idea of a party of characters taking on Dracula as opposed to just one man/woman. My personal favorite to have playing alongside Trevor was Grant, he was the most usefull I felt, Alucard was usefull for cheating but that was about it, just collect hearts and fly over the annoying parts.Â
Also Caslevania III was my personal favorite in terms of soundtrack, every track on there I loved, especially Riddle and Stream, It's a shame that these two have not been touched. Well that said, Riddle was remade in Order of Ecclesia, which is another personal favorite of min, quite possibly the best game on the DS, but I'd love to hear stream make a comeback.

And I know I'm probably going to get a few dirty looks for this, but I absolutely Adore Castlevania 64 and Legacy of Darkness... they really are underappreciated for Castlevania's first attempts at 3D.
