I enjoyed this Castlevania much more than the Circle of the Moon or Aria of Sorrow. For once, I really wanted to collect the souls, they actually had cool effects that were useful. Didn't feel like such a grind, and it was alot more fun to explore for some reason. Graphics were much better than they've been on the Game Boy Advance obviously. I liked being able to fuse souls with weapons to design uber-swords and such. It was definitely cool to unlock Julius, Alucard and the chick after getting the good ending. Most of the times I don't play through the second time, but it really changed the way the game played. I still have to go with Symphony of the Night as the greatest Castlevania of all time, but they're getting closer.
