Rating: - How to make a game everybody loves or hates
Legacy of Darkness, like its predecessor, is just one of those games that are so close to the line between excellent and mediocre that all the players either wind up loving it or hating it. While some people seem to want to hand Konami an Academy Award, others want to impale them on a wooden stake. I would love to claim open-mindness and 'moderation' but I shamelessly admit I'm in the first camp.
When I played the first Castlevania, I simply loved it. As soon as I saw my character use his ... Read More
Rating: - Graphics isnt the main factor in a game...
People need to understand this, instead of passing the game off as poor quality just cause the graphics blow.. its the gameplay that counts. Look at Star Craft, one of the greatest RTS games ever made, its graphics suck but it still has massive players. same with Final Fantasy 6.

Now on to the game.
The game is pretty identical to the 1st one as far as gameplay goes. So if u liked the 1st one then u will ... Read More
Rating: - Very underrated
The original Castlevania 64 was under par, not just because of the twitchy camera or the graphics but because of the short length of the game.

The graphics look extremely dated and they weren't the best even when the game came out, but I don't think they take much from the gaming experience. My biggest gripe was the difficult controls, ... Read More
Rating:  - I'll be short but sweet
This is a very underestimated Castlevania game. Althought the 3D graphics are not that good, the gameplay is awesome; you can play four different characters! It is a game I have played over and over again. If you have a Nintendo 64 this game is a must have!
Rating: - It IS Castlevania
The Castlevanias on the N64 got praise upon first release, then slowly everyone jumped on the bandwagon of bashing the heck out of them. I have to say that this is totally undeserved. One has to remember that this game was done under the limitations of the technology at the time. Compared to todays games......sure, it's not that pretty to look at. But for its time, LoD was as good a 3D interpretation of Castlevania as one could hope to create (and don't get me started about "it could have been done better on ... Read More
