[You have not played them all. I can tell by the list.Dracula68

Lol,just because you like the NES/SNES ones more doesn't mean i have to,too!

They need to stay 2D. Any 3D version they have tried failed miserably for the most part.Dracula68

Do you know what the words "personal preference" mean?

No, can you elaborate for me please?Dracula68

Nothing to elaborate on.

I just prefer the Castlevanias i mentioned.

My personal favorites, all in order.

-Castlevania: SOTN
-Super Castlevania IV
-Castlevania I
-Castlevania IV
-Castlevania: Portrait Of Ruin

5. Chronicles

4. Dracula X Chronicles

3. Super Castlevania IV

2. Order of Ecclesia

1. Symphony of the Night

Also pretty fond of Lords of Shadow, but even though I like it so much it's still pretty hard to put it in a best Castlevanias list :P

I'll just talk about the ones I've played through and beaten...

Aria of Sorrow- great graphics, gameplay, story, music... One of my all time favorite handheld games.

2. Dawn of Sorrow- See above... I think the story was a little less strong this time around but still a superb action/ platformer.

3. Order of Ecclesia- I liked the challenge it provided and the more gothic art styIe. Plus the variety in the levels was really cool.

4. Portrait of Ruin- A great game, just my least favorite. Music and story weren't quite as stellar this time around, but the level variety and plenty of bosses made up for it.

I only played Lords of Shadow and it was meh..

1. Super Castlevania IV

2. Castlevania: Rondo of Blood

3. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night

4. Castlevania III

5. Castlevania: The Adventure Rebirth

Need to play more of the Metroidvanias.

I only played Lords of Shadow and it was meh..

No particular order

• Castlevania: Dracula X
• Super Castlevania IV
• Castlevania (NES)
• Castlevania: SOTN
• Castlevania II: Simon's Quest

1. Castlevania Circle of the Moon

2. Super Castlevania IV

3. Castlevania Symphony of the Night

4. Castlevania Order of Ecclesia

5. uhhh.. The Original Castlevania I guess. I never finished it though.

My favorites in order would be:

1. Rondo of Blood (Akumaj? Dracula X: Chi no Rondo)

2. Aria of Sorrow

3. Cirlcle of the Moon

4. Symphony of The Night

5. Harmony of Dissonance

1. Order of Ecclesia

2. Symphony of the Night

3. Portrait of Ruin

4. Aria of Sorrow

5. Curse of Darkness

Was hard to make a top 5 seeing they're pretty much all good except for a few "bad apples".

Super Castlevania IV is my ultimate favorite which i finished countless times, followed closely by Castlevania: Bloodlines, which is harder. I don't really like Symphony of the Night, it was a bore to play and have never finished it though i got quite far.

Gah! TC! You forgot Symphony of the Night and Super Castlevania IV! Quick! Fix it! :P

Mine are:

1: Symphony of the Night

2: Super Castlevania IV

3: Symphony of the Night

4: Super Castlevania IV

5: Symphony of the Super Castlevania Night IV

Well

Out of the NES games I prefer the original because it's straightforward, CV4 is obviously one of the best too.

SotN is a solid metroidvania, I wasn't amazed by it, probably because I played it only recently for the first time.

It's tough, but these three are definitely my favorites, in no particular order:

Castlevania
S Castlevania 4
Order of Ecclesia

I love many more, but I can't decide which one to pick from here on.

Oh, I have played some of the 3D games, do not like at all, I actually skipped out on LoS based on the demo. I'm fine with the combat system, because there is no standard in the 3D games yet, however I'm not crazy about it. What put me completely off was the presentation, it's very important to me when it comes to CV; the music, graphics and voice acting while well made, they are not CV, it feels like a fantasy game in the veins of LotR. I prefer the goth style or w/e you call it.

In no particular order: 1. Castlevania (NES) 2. Castlevania II: Simon's Quest (NES) 3. Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse (NES) 4. Super Castlevania IV (SNES) 5. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (PS1)Koi-Neon-X

I would also like to nominate Castlevania IV for having probably the best videogame music ever.GodModeEnabled

Personally two of the better 3D castlevania are Curse of Darkness and one of my guilty pleasure, Castlevania 64.

Despite all the flaws in CV64 it seem to have managed to retain the feel of old castlevania better than the other 3D games.

The Legacy of Darkness game also had a pretty nice remix of Sinking Old Sanctuary from Bloodlines on Genesis.

Needs to stay away from making fighters/brawlers too. Castlevania Judgment was mediocre, to say the least.

Calling Judgment mediocre is being very kind.

[QUOTE="MadVybz"]

[QUOTE="Dracula68"] Who said we only played the older one's? It means we like the older one's much better. Again, just because you throw 3D on a game does not make it great. Castlevania is the perfect example. Yes, this is my opinion but I am gonna go out on a limb and say the majority of gamers would agree with me---keep Castlevania 2D.

Judgment was so bad, but at least it was a different take on the series than anything before or after it.
