Castlevania: Symphony of The Night...WTF

 

:arrow: I can't possibly be the biggest SOTN fan out there, so how is it possible then that I seem to be the only one to notice the following:

  • 1. All of the FMV's have been removed from the XBLA version of the game.
  • 2. The items menu background is fragmented into bands of a color spectrum that range in different values from dark to light instead of a smooth transitional gradient like the original.
  • 3. Some of the sound effects are distorted
  • 4. The music is lacking treble
  • 5. the colors in the game are over-saturated which makes otherwise smooth gradients turn into stark contrasts.
  • 6. Many of the images are over-sharp and grainy looking as a result of emulation making the "enhanced graphics" feature nessecary. :roll:

All criticisms aside..I have to say the achievements system and leaderboards were done very well. The ability to compare time attacks with friends on live is great. :P
