DESCRIPTION

The highly popular, critically acclaimed Castlevania series goes Genesis with Castlevania: Bloodlines, a game that wisely stays true to its rock solid platforming roots. This time around, players can select from two different characters, giving the game a good dose of depth and replay value. Whip-wielding John Morris can use his weapon to swing past obstacles while lance-loving Eric Lecarde employs his weapon as a mega-jumping device. Both are adept at lashing out at ravens, Medusa heads, flaming skulls, and other beasties, and both can pick up a variety of special items, including weapon power-ups, health, battle axes, boomerangs, and more. What sets the game apart from the previous games in the series are the clever level designs and the settings, which range from a munitions factory in Germany to the Leaning Tower of Pisa to the French Versailles Palace. The game is a little short at six levels, and the bosses (other than Dracula) are a tad on the easy side, but the game as a whole looks, sounds, and plays fantastic. ~ Brett Alan Weiss, All Game Guide

“resident evil 5

that game is a joke of a resident evil”

“@hashiasin You can't put down 5 without putting down 4. 4 had practically the same design. And it was still a good game regardless if it was a good Resident Evil.”

“hmm God of War can fall into this category. It's success is (as always) based on who you talk to ; )”

“HEY! Bionic Commando wasn't THAT bad. It was still Bad, but Not THAT bad. ”

BofusTeefus was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“Bioshock 2 and L4D2. Bioshock 2 wasn't obscenely early like L4D2, but I don't think they put enough into the sequel to warrant a whole game. L4D2 was just too stinking early. They did make improvements, but could've made more given another year.”

“did you get the Crossing Over DLC for it?”

BofusTeefus was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“@wastelander75 Crossing Over?”

wastelander75 was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“sorry, "The Passing" is it out yet?”

wastelander75 was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“and yes I had to look it up”

BofusTeefus was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“Haven't got it yet. Didn't realize it was out. ”

“from what I hear one of the original 4 bites the dust in game cannon. ”

BofusTeefus was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“I have a theory that it will be the original survivor who they had trouble re-hiring the voice actor for....”

wastelander75 was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“I think it'll be Bill. Old Soldiers never die, they just take a city block full of zombies with them in the explosion. ”

BofusTeefus was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“....plus they had trouble with his voice actor.”

wastelander75 was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“really?”

Thunder87122 was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“Sorry but I liked most of the remakes but some really sucked aka sonic remakes. Now for the bionic commando I liked the orginal and the new. Not the best game ever but still decent same with the new REvsOld. I love so many games its really hard for me to hate a game so most of the remakes im just glad that they kept it alive.”

ECU-Sandman360 was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“Capcom should just bring back those mindless flesh eating assh0les and drop the co-op gameplay go back to basics.”

rawkr was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“I didn't care much for the co-op either.”

rawkr was the last to comment - over 3 years ago...

“It was still a decent game though.”

DragonmasterBen was the last to comment - over 2 years ago...

“I actually like the Mario and Zelda games even better since they are 3D. The handling of each was simply freedom!”

rawkr was the last to comment - about 1 year ago... show previous hide previous

“Some franchises have managed to remain fairly consistent throughout the years. Some changed for the better. But a great many are shadows of their former selves. *cough* SONIC *cough* BTW, I want my Shenmue 3!”
