Castlevania: Circle of the Moon

THE BAD:
It's a little dark to see. Luckily the GBA SP has a light up screen to make your quest a bit easier on the eyes.

SUMMARY:
Nathan's master has been kidnapped by Dracula, and it's up to him to rescue the old man before the full moon appears and Dracula is at his total destructive power. Meanwhile, Nathan's rival Hugh is out there somewhere, thinking that Nathan is trying to take all his glory. As if! There are plenty of monsters to slay, plus the power of the DSS gives you special powers, such as Fire Whip and Freeze Sword. There are many ways to take down your foes, but you must master the power of the elements and find the most effective methods for dispatching the minions of Dracula.
It's a brilliant game, much like Symphony of the Night for the PlayStation. Even if you're not much of a fan of these sort of games, this game is a must-add to any GBA collection. I suggest you pick it up if you haven't already done so. I see no reason for anyone not to like this game, it's practically perfect and it deserves a 5 out of 5, I don't see how you can live without it. Case closed.

THE BAD:
That Skeleton Medalist is so hard to catch(but he's worth it) Music's a bit lame in some areas. The final, final ending sucks.

SUMMARY:
Sweet game. I've beaten all of its modes. Thief is my favorite. If you need any help just Email me. Here's a tip, learn how to card switch, it's a life saver, especailly if you've got the Summon Cockratice DSS. It's murder to even the toughest of foes. Not so good against flying enemies though. gtffffff fffffffff ffffffffffff fffffffff fffffffff fffffffff fffffffff fffffffrt rtffffff fff fffff ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff fff fffff ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff ffff ffff fffff fff fffff fff ffffffff ffffffff fff fffff ff fffffff fffff fffff

THE BAD:
slowdowns, sometimes to hard, DARK SCREEN, not enought weapons

SUMMARY:
this is a great game! really thats all i can say about it. i loved the DSS the different kinds or aremor. the level up system was great. it was just a perfectly planned game and it got me hooked. the graphics were great but really it should have a lot more weapons that you can choose. this game is not for the people that give up right away! this is a really long game and i thought that sometimes it got old. but all in all it was a hott game that i would recomend to anyone that wants a challange :) you have to know where you are going or this game will make no sense. the DSS makes up for the lack of different weapons if you master them all. this is a great game!!

THE BAD:
Some bosses are very difficult to beat, maybe to difficult
Some slight slowdown

SUMMARY:
Graphics: Nice-looking enemies and bosses, great backgrounds, but some nasty slowdown is not good.

Sound: Well-working sound-effects, and some really great music, that features many classy tunes, making it the games strongest point.

Gameplay: Some of the bosses might be over-difficult, but the game is pretty sizable, well-designed and great fun to play.

Lifespan: Levelling-up system, many secrets and some neat reasons to replay the game makes it last for a long time.

Overall: A very good game indeed, and one title that you should seriously consider buying.

THE BAD:
This game requires a lot of light.

SUMMARY:
Taking place in the mid 19th century. Castlevania:Circle if the moon is an action/RPG game you do not want to miss. You are Nathan Graves journeying around dracula's castle to save your master.
With hidious monsters and scary bosses this game is on every castlevania fans' wish list.

THE BAD:
It is a little dark.SOme of the bosses are intensly hard.And it can be hard to find some of the card.

SUMMARY:
If you've never played a Castlevania game before you should buy this game.It is one of the best games I've ever played.If you don't the world will explode.Have mercy on our souls.

THE BAD:
WHAT!NO LIBRAIRIAN!

SUMMARY:
One of the best series of action games ever is the legendary Castlevania series.Oh how I'd hope for another symphony of the night and now,it has returned!There are lots of secrets in the castle such as all those sweet cards and different armors.The only thing that sucks is that there's no librairian.Further more,I think they should bring back Alucard.HE KICKED ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Especially with the rune sword.

THE BAD:
The sprites are very poorly animated, it is far too dark and the gba's poor backlighting doesn't help that along.

SUMMARY:
I really enjoyed this game even though it was almost impossible tos ee at times and was a little too difficult. I'll admit though I may well mark this down after having played harmony of dissoance, but it is still a good game well worth the money and will give you many hours of pleasure. It incorporates features from dracula x for the snes and symphony of the night for the ps1 making it a really enjoyable game.

THE BAD:
difficulty!!!!! this game is so hard that you will be pulling your hair out!!!

SUMMARY:
this is a fantastic side scroller, with all of the hair-ripping difficulty of all those old arcade games that you wish you could forget.

the graphics are so-so, but the true highlight of the game is the DSS function. picking up cards from fallen enemies allows you to perform devastating magic attacks that gives you just a little more ass-kicking ability.

all-in-all, this game is truly worth the money. replay value is sketchy, but a new, harder, and more unique play mode is unlocked upon each completion.

have fun ripping your hair out!
