PlayTM: Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles Review
0
The Castlevania games deserve respect for being one of the only series to continue the tradition of side scrolling action games after the rest of the world went full-3D crazy. The problem is that while to the existing fan base the retro design and gameplay are all part of the experience newer gamers will probably view those same qualities in a far more negative light.
Personally PlayTM remembers loving this kind of thing back in the day but to be honest my gaming senses have moved on a fair bit since then and while it's interesting to have a glimpse back to how things used to be they didn't find anything in The Dracula X Chronicles to make them miss those times one little bit. For fans of the series or those with an urge for a highly polished slab of retro style gaming then this is undoubtedly a fantastic example of the genre, however, anyone else will find it hard to see what all the fuss is about.
