I now know why this game is considered the last most awesome castlevania game since castlevania 4.. I am obsessed with part 4 and always wondered why they didn't continue with games like it and I don't know how or why I never bothered to give this game a try.. this is the perfect game to get into the Halloween spirit and well its a castlevania freaks dream come true.. the game is perfect and I consider it the best game I have ever played.. words cant even explain how highly I think of this game.. buy it and give it a try you won't regret it . I just wish they made games like this now a days.. I hate all these new weird games that are coming out .. I am amazed at how much this game has to offer .. never endless enemys of all types and the game just never ends..its very very long and challenging in a good way which I love.. no wonder this game is considered to be a gem ..
