Castlevania

"looks like it's time to drive another stake through Drac's heart"

Castlevania 64 was the first Castlevania game I had ever played and it was also one of the best N64 games had ever played. Well... all I can say is that Castlevania 64 has it all, walking skelletons, explosive skelletons, giant skelletons, weird things that walk around with clubs, werewolves, heads that stick up out of the ground and spit fire at you, cheesy ghost things that fly around, walking stained glass windows, dogs that come up out of the ground, walking statues, half women half spider things, annoying bats that fly around, and many many more. Castlevania 64 is brilliant but there is one problem and problem is the is way too hard, at one place you have to follow this little jerk through a forest and while following him this frankenstien dude is chasing after you with his dogs, then at the very beginning this giant skelleton guy tries to kill you and trust me for a beginner this could be very hard, and at one part you have to carry this explosive stuff through a castle without getting hit once or jumping once, but if you lay all that junk aside it's pretty good game. Now this game has a really really weird feature, if you too much stuff from this guy named Renon he will try beat you up at the end of the game. Then another weird thing about this game is that if you take to long to get to end you will have to fight this old man named vincent. Well if you're Castlevania fan you should buy this game.
