Weekly Game Review: Castlevania

[Mister Tea]

For my money, Simon's Quest and Symphony of the Night are the two best; the fact that every single 2D game that's come since has tried to copy them says a hell of lot.

Oh, and Proto: Once you pick up a new weapon in earlier Castlevania games, your old one is lost until you find another; we didn't get the ability to retrieve weapons until Rondo of Blood/Dracula X came along.
