Castlevania 3D, can they do it right?
PaperBowser0 | 5:15 PM on 05.21.2008 12 comments


Alright, so everybody that knows and loves Castlevania should know, or should think that all of the 2D ones are pure amazing, and are probably the best made, both graphically and story wise, and the 3D ones are just crappy. I've played through tons of the 2D Castlevania games, and only one 3D one, which was Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness for the Nintendo 64. To tell you the truth, I thought at that time they were going to keep on making all of the Castlevania games 3D, and they were just going to ruin the series from there on out. That obviously has not been true, and I'm happy to see that for the main part they're keeping the series as 2D (like it should be). Right now I personally think that all of the 2D Castlevania games have been great, and I've loved every single one of them, but 3D just never quiet ticked for me. For all of you that kind of agree with me, that the 3D Castlevania games are just plane shit, do you think that if Konami does indeed make a new 3D one, that they can do it right, or will it be just as bad as the other ones?

they can't even make a decent 2D castlevania, so a 3D one is not a reality

They first need to find a good gameplay mechanic that works with the gameplay in 3D, just as most successful 2D to 3D games did.

So if they can find something that works with 3D whip swinging and the sub-weapons, they can make the rest work.

and no, Castlevania is meant to be side scroller for as long as Dracula keeps coming back from the dead.

As Wilbo said, Curse of Darkness was actually pretty good for a Castlevania 3D. There is a problem though with this, IGA and co have tried to do it in a DMC style, since himself said that DMC was how Castlevania should have been in 3D.

I think that Castlevania has the potential on making a good 3D game, they just have to keep trying.

Yeah I agree with you Passionate Styos, I think that if they keep on trying, they'll EVENTUALLY make a good one, but how long will we have to wait, and by the time they actually get it down will they have lost too many of they're fans?
