Castlevania: Bloodlines reviewReviewed December 19, 2003Marc Golding says: "Lecarde is by far the better character, and playing with him makes for a much more enjoyable journey due in part to his wider array of moves, and also in part to the easier, smoother gameplay that results from him knowing them.

Men and women cower and die in the wake of destruction laid by Dracula's powers. The Belmonts, bound by the strength of their blood..." |

Castlevania: Bloodlines reviewReviewed February 07, 2003siegfried says: "For once, Lord Dracula, sent to the blazes of Hell by another pawn bestowed by the Belmont blood, hasn't come back through means beyond human comprehension. Rather, he is preparing to make a baneful reappearance through the aid of Countess Elizabeth Bartley, who is willing to sacrifice humanity for her startling uncle. On the verge of being resurrected, Dracula represents a menace to humanity, a plague that will in time reduce it to mere puppets. The setting is appropriate; ..." |
