This game changed my brain chemistry when I was a kid and is actually just discount Devil May Cry as far as the combat system goes BUT THAT'S WHAT I LIKED ABOUT IT and I'll DIE on this hill
This is, firstly, the most impactful game of my childhood with some other ps2 titles (I'm still 21 but I played it first when I was 8 or so), shaping my taste in storytelling, gameplay, music and aesthetics (Rinaldo's cabin and saving rooms gotta be the chillest places on earth). And, secondly, the game still stands today as an amazing, perfectly enjoyable 10-15 hours game. As a 3D castlevania, the concepts and methods of the 2D ones are well adapted, the graphics have aged correctly, replayability is quite fun, THE MUSIC makes you travel through dimensions... It also came with a manual that I sadly lost track of during my many movings, but it was a big one, full-color (I think) and with really interesting info about the game. Sadly, this game has never been ported to pc, nor to any next-gen console, probably because its popularity wasn't that big. But look for it, everyone that knows about the game and every Castlevania review in youtube that talks about it gives a good rating to the game. Seriously, this game is worth your time if you are minimally interested in Castlevania or in an RPG-like experience (with much more simplified mechanics, beginner friendly). It would be an inmediate buy from my part if GOG decided to give it a chance.
A Classic PS2 game that deserves to live forever! A fun take on a perfect franchise! We have a place where these titles deserver to live on forever!!! Take all my money
In the late 90s, Castlevania was doing well in 2D and stumbling in 3D with the boring Nintendo 64 games, but with the extra firepower of the PS2, the game could turn around (pardon the pun) and for that it was bold... It decided to give us the first chapter of the fight between the Belmonts and Dracula, which worked out very well!
Lament of Innocence is a fan favorite of the series! The story, the character design by Ayami Kojima, the game design by Koji Igarashi's team and the unforgettable music by maestra Michiru Yamane make this game an unforgettable experience and, along with Curse of Darkness, it is still waiting to come to PC! Come on Konami, bring us another collection too!!!
This game as well as Curse of Darkness helped define my PS2 gaming experiences back when I still had a PS2 over 20 years ago. Both games had an incredible soundtrack and the gameplay was awesome. I had beat Lament of Innocence but never finished Curse of Darkness. I would love to have the chance to roll through CV: LOE again.
Forbidden Siren 2Forbidden Siren 2 is the second installment in the Siren series.
The game tells the story of several characters who become trapped on Yamijima Island, an island off the coast of mainland Japan. On August 3, 1976, an underwater cable was cut, and all power to the island was lost. During the subsequent blackout, all of the islanders disappeared and the island became deserted. Twenty-nine years later, in 2005, a magazine editor called Mamoru Itsuki is visiting the island to conduct research for an article when the ferry he and a small group of other passengers are on capsizes, after it is hit by a red tidal wave. Shortly after his arrival, a group of soldiers crash land on the island after their helicopter has engine troubles. They must all find ways to survive the island's "monsters", the shibito.
The game is played through several character perspectives, each with his or her own strengths and weaknesses, through an overlapping timeline of the fateful night that alternates between the present and the past. The story can unfold in different ways with, in many cases, two or more different versions of a level, which will have slightly different objectives than the original. If the player is thorough and plays through these optional versions, the story and characters may develop even further than beforeHorror Survival
