Got here a day before expected day but doesn’t say arrived when i checked. Other than that game works perfectly fine and couldn’t be happier
Classic styled Castlevaina game on a 16-bit system. Two characters to choose from and lots of levels in many different locations, not just Dracula’s Castle. This is the only Castlevainia for the Genesis and was kind of overshadowed by it’s brother game on the SNES, but this one is just as good. Good sound. Nice graphics. The controls are very good, but a bit closer to the original NES games than the SNES games.
This is my first time getting into the Castlevania series and man did I pick a great game. Castlevania bloodlines was the first Castlevania game that featured blood in it! The best feature of this game is the fun factor! Sure you don’t have the vertical and 90 degree hit angles that Super Castlevania has. What it does have is two characters to choose from which defiantely adds to the replay value. I also liked the over all graphics and feel of this game. The dark yet colorful backrounds were very imaginative and looked great! The fact that this game along with Contra’s hard corps were the only Konomi games (of their series)that made it to the Genesis, makes them special. Since I own both of them I can say they trully are great games!!! Back to Castlevania Bloodlines, I must add that the music is excellent!!! It really captured the feel of the game with its dark feel and scary approach. The only possible downfall is that it is a slightly short game. To the games credit you can change the difficulty which adds to replay value. Over all I would recomend this game to both fans of the series and those looking to play a great old school platformer!!!
I love Castlevania BloodLines but there is a issue with collecting this game in box. There was 2 different versions of this game the first edition if you will call it that was hardcover case with a nice colored manual the other is a version in a cardboard box and a black and white manual. I can not seem to find what version of the game this is any where with out pictures of the exact copy you are buying i would not pay this price for this game. If your buying jsut for the play then just buy the cart its a great game I love it.
Yes!!!
Following the lead of the previous year’s Japanese-only PC-Engine classic Dracula X: Chi no Rondo (Rondo of Blood,) Bloodlines is highly ambitious in attempting to create a sense of a bridge between the old CastleVania and the new. It even copies the Dracula X Chi no Rondo “boss that throws a ton of the bosses you’ve already beaten” formula, but it allows you to fall back on the trusty old password system. The game is even, but it fails to rank among the best games in the series for a number of reasons.It’s interesting to point out how portions of the level designs were reused for next year’s (1995’s) Super Nintendo/Super Famicom games Dracula X and XX, respectively. That tells us its designers were strangely attracted to some points of their bizzare little creation.On the plus side, the environments are varied, the music is great for the Genesis (composed by the same person who went on to write the music for Symphony of the Night/Nocturne in the Moonlight) and the graphics are colorful. The special effects are considered by many to be in the same league as Contra The Hard Corps and even Gunstar Heroes, and it certainly comes close.Wait…I didn’t just say the graphics are colorful, did I? Drat. The graphics are stronger than many other Genesis games, but I feel a sense of horror at putting this title above Comix Zone or Ecco. Of course, no Genesis titles are truly ever beautiful–ask Rembrandt to paint the Night Watch and then squeeze that into the severely limited Genesis p.
I don’t know anything at all about this game as I don’t do video games. All I know is that my son just loved it.
[IF THEE HATES THIS GAME, THOU HATH WASTED THY [DARN] LIFE. OH, BTW, I’M A BIG CASTLEVANIA FAN.]Bloodlines came two years after Super Castlevania IV and while IV has some better graphics and definitely some better sound quality, it has its own merits. Sure, you go kill Dracula… so what? Actually, the plotline itself is a refreshing change from the others. In this one, you can choose to be either John Morris or Eric Lecarde, which allows a different change of pace of having just one character to start off with (faintly similar like Castlevania III for the NES, except in that game you start with just one). The graphics are essentially good for the Genesis, so I have no complaints (YES, they’re better than the NES).Overall? A great game. It may not touch Symphony of the Night, but this game is ESSENTIAL to any Genesis collection. It may be difficult, but it’s WORTH IT. Personally, I rank Super Castlevania IV a little higher, but that’s just because it’s my favorite. Is it better? Judge for yourself. Nevertheless, get it. After all, it IS Castlevania, and you would be depriving yourselves without it.
This is the only Castlevania game I ever cared for, the music is phenomenal, and the graphics are so attractive.
I had never played Castlevania Bloodlines before, and I have to say it’s now one of my favorites in the series. If you are a fan of Castlevania you must get this game.
