Created to celebrate the franchise and all of it’s achievements

it's garbage because it doesn't have the GBC remasters of adventure and belmonts revenge

By all means the rom's been dumped already, but naturally Konami did some fucked up shit with how it was emulated by presumably using external access to the RAM and alterations with the rom - so no current emulator can run it, and standard hardware hasn't been tested yet either.

adventures has slow down thats not in the original game, so no there are more issues

Its still pretty cool to get Kid Drac for the first time.

Wonder if they translated it just for this, or had an English ROM just laying around already...

What part of the game?

The compilation is the usual half-assed Konami shit, but I won't hear a bad word said about Kid Drac.

>standard hardware hasn't been tested yet either.
Tried the ripped ROM on an everdrive. Grey screen and a lock up.

Probably an Earthbound Zero thing where they translated the rom ages ago but only released it 2 decades later

SOTN is ps4 exclusive. Get over it.

It's a classicvania collection
Rondo isn't in it because it's being sold as part as the two pack Konami released a few months ago.

>Tried the ripped ROM on an everdrive. Grey screen and a lock up.
Christ. I have to commend Konami, somehow they managed to repurpose and emulate a rom in such a way that not even functioning hardware can actually play it. At least one person has recommended backporting the new graphics back to the original translated rom before working on text later rather than unfucking this mess, but we'll just have to see since it just came out.

I got excited for this and when i didnt see sotn or rondo or dracula x chronicles in the trailer I took it out of my cart immediately. I would have dealt with shit emulation for a playable pc version of sotn.

Sounds likely.

They could easily port them again, maybe to make up for Requiem being exclusive. Besides, that was all Sony.

>not playing the ps2/og Xbox castlevanias in 201x
Honestly not trying to start shit but those along with the gba ones are far superior to the dogshit on this collection

A shame that they couldn't use the rebirth version.

>calling the classics dogshit
i'll give you the GB games and maybe CV2, and yes the actual collection's quality is atrocious, but fuck off nonetheless

>i'll give you the GB games
fuck off you retarded casual. Belmonts revenge is in a whole other league than adventure(or legends)

Indeed. Cv3 was amazing and Super are comfy af, but not 19.99 worthy

You can play it already on 360, without the pillar box shit

Hey so was Final Fantasy VII-X2 but they eventually got ported.

The Soma games are the worst fucking thing to ever happen to Castlevania. Thank God for Lords of Shadow. Best game since Rondo.

It's literally just a stolen emulator and roms that you can pay for

ReBirth is pretty different from original Adventure, but it's a shame they didn't include it either way.
Belmont's Revenge is excellent. It's one of my favorite games in the series.

Is this bait?

lords of shadow is underrated. it gets shit for being "derivative" thanks to the cherry picked SOTN reference. The gameplay is good, it's really long and has lots of well placed upgrades and people complain it doesn't have a castlevania tone when it clearly does, just in a more grounded classic horror vibe instead of japanese cartoony horror.

LOS2/mirror was shit though.

rebirth wasn't very good anyway. it went from a 3/10 with adventure to a 5/10

>save to right

Do you get a kick out of giving native English speakers a bad reputation?

Where can I keep up with this stuff?

ReBirth was great, though. What's your issue with it?

He's 50% correct about Soma. It's baffling how DoS can be so shit when Aria is a masterpiece.

Not that user but you really think a game where "kill enemies over and over for a drop to get a new ability and now do it eight more fucking times to upgrade it!" is fun?
The Sorrow games are pretty fucking terrible. IT also gave the "DRAW A SEAL TO KILL A BOSS LOLZ" trash

PoR and OoE are much better. CotM is inferior in terms of the fact it's also RNG based to change your attack style but still, the castle overall is more enjoyable.

>it gets shit for being "derivative"
Well, yeah. It is. Being derivative and riding trends isn't new for the series, though. Consider Lament of Innocence, which not only copied Devil May Cry but also clearly indulged in stunt casting with its use of Meg Ryan.

Well sure, if you're a completionist. Otherwise Aria was probably the most polished Metroidvania. Especially in regards to castle layout and difficulty.

OoE has boring level design though.

COTN has a glitch to make the rng shit not as obnoxious. The game gets points for having great difficulty balance. It's not as hard as classic castlevania of course, but it's not like you are never threatened like other metroid vanias. It's pretty similar to like super metroid in terms of difficulty.

think you can record the audio issue? no one seems to be talking about it

Was there any issues with Bloodlines and 4, been a while since I played either and nothing really stood out.

Apparently only that track does the beep even when it plays on stage 4.

Nothing so far.

>also clearly indulged in stunt casting with its use of Meg Ryan.

It was a different time.

Get the fuck outta here you third-world illiterate zoomer

Seethe, cunts

So what I gather the news of CV1 got passed around and now people are parroting the whole collection being awful?

There's reports of crashes and shit involving it being the original release and not one of the revisions that followed, and there's slowdown in other places to be sure.

I haven't read anyone specifying where there's additional slowdown. I have read people saying they have other audio issues on specific versions (mostly on Xbox), but I don't think they've posted any videos of it.

Konami admitting that old Castlevania games are so shit you need state saves to beat them is a win. Otherwise - yeah. Write it all off.

Probably.

Theres alot of slowdown in Adventure 1, but thats probably there in the original.

What a sad state of affairs when the homebrew emulators that i have installed on my vita are more stable than professionally made emulation, this never happened to me.
