About Me: Hello. |
Some quick thoughts:
-Using the pistol in Route Kanal is actually quite fun. When I first played that level, I was annoyed with it and couldn't wait to get my hands on a machine gun.
-I forgot how fun it is to see the various ways combine soldiers die. Watching them fall to their death from a platform is always a fun moment, and I'll never get tired of running over soldiers with the hovercraft.
-Water Hazard gets boring as hell a lot.
-The magnum kicks ass.
-The crossbow kicks more ass.
-Anticitizen One is a bitch to play sometimes because your teammates get in the way a lot, especially in small hallways and cramped rooms.
-The machine gun kinda sucks. I can't believe I equipped this weapon so much when I played through HL2 the first time.
-That's it.
My computer likes talking dirty.
In other words, I just found that my computer can take words on screen and say them out loud. As you can see, I'm using it to its full potential.

It started out with a funny headline, but it got more painful the more you read. Ouch.
Good game. Short..... but good. It was better than HoD in some aspects. The warping system and music were improvements. Some of the boss fights were actually tougher (like the Death fight), but the majority of the boss fights were easy like in HoD. And again, there were unknown requirements to get the different endings. The twist towards the end of the game was certainly creative.
Well, that about does it with my Castlevania streak I was having. I don't think I'll be playing another CV game next. I'll give Circle of the Moon a shot later.
The final boss fight was pretty annoying. Not because of the fights themselves, but the unknown requirements to get the final, FINAL boss. After a couple of tries, I finally gave in and looked up a faq to find out I had to wear the two bracelets going into the fight. Next time, hint about something like this, Iga.
Anyway, not a bad game. The music, surprisingly, was mostly forgettable (Juste's theme and the cavern theme were the only ones that stuck in my mind), and every single boss, while they looked cool, were horrifically easy to defeat.
Now on to AoS.
Ever since the incident a while back with the 360, I decided to go play some old games. I then played Castlevania: Dracula X.... which in turn made me want to play a whole bunch of CV games. I went through SCIV, played a little bit of CVII, and completed CVIII (son of a bitch, I forgot how hard that game gets at the end). I got Castlevania Double Pack in the mail today (the package size was ridiculous, it was big enough to fit a Gamecube), so I'm gonna play through HoD and AoS for the first time. Gah, I hope I don't get burned out before I beat these games.
