another addition to the ever so weak, DS castlevania series

well, here we have another DS castlevania game. I am a huge castlevania fan but I will also tell you that I am not a fan of any of the DS games (yes, I hated dawn of sorrow, sue me). I will tell you the reasons why this game sucked

1) the music. It doesnt lack the castlevania style but the problem is that these songs were terribly mediocre and not memorable in the least. they cant hold a candle to the anything before SOTN.

2) the story. to make a long story short....... its laughable.

3) the difficulty. when I play a castlevania game, I expect above all else, to be challenged. this game was not challenging or difficult in any way. when I play castlevania, I expect to have my balls kicked in. this game was simply too easy, in fact its one of the easiest games I have played on the DS in a long time. that just saddens me.

4) having to play as that spell caster chick. I hated it in all the other games where it was present and I hated it here.

overall this game is not a worthy addition to the series and once again, its a monumental disappointment. I dont see how any classic castlevania fan can even stomach this garbage.
