Eu detesto o jogo per si, inclusive o único motivo de jogá-lo foi pra liberar o EXTRA que é simplesmente o SOTN em uma versão mista do PS1 com coisas do Saturn. Aí parei de jogar o Dracula X e finalizei mais uma vez SOTN.

Good port of Rondo. I love Drac's third form and the new stage 5 prime. Both took me a while to beat, but I loved learning the pattern. Visuals are bit meh, and I hate collecting the Cds.

A remake that looks and plays worse than the original in almost everyway. However, this does include the original Rondo of Blood and Symphony of the Night so I'll cut it some slack since those are some of the best platformers out there.

I remember saying "if there was a collection with rondo of blood and symphony of the night I would buy that" and low and behold

Niveles, enemigos y bosses increiblemente bien diseñados, diferentes rutas que fomentan la re-jugabilidad y una banda sonora de escándalo. Obligatorio si uno disfruta de los plataformas arcade en 2D.


Kind a weird game. It's a an expanded port of Rondo of Blood. It looks awful and plays worse than the game it's based on. However, this game does contain a full copy of the original Rondo and SotN (albeit redubbed).

Novamente, muito bom, muito bom mesmo. Esse remake ele é o tipo de remake que eu não curto muito, que é igual o original, mas pelo menos ele trás até que bastante conteudo extra.

Tem uns 3 bosses novos, uma fase totalmente nova que é SENSACIONAL, e o melhor, novos segredos, localidades e coisas pra pegar, assim aumentando a exploração em uns 30-40% só de coisa nova pra coletar. E isso, que era uma das melhores coisas do Rondo original que é bem melhor aqui, e também da uma vibe nova pra exploração por que diferente do original, ela não é uma copia, os dois são diferentes nas localidades ou jeitos de coletar e salvar as personagens.

Enfim, eu não sei qual prefiro, talvez o rondo por ser mais lindo na minha opinião e preferencia, mas o Chronicles realmente me divertiu bastante, tão no mesmo nivel pra mim.

This game has like 4 games in one, so it's better than most games.

Overall Rating: 9.4/10

Good:
- Great Level Design
- Best Boss Design in the Series and Adds onto that with Some Fun and Inventive Bosses
- Contains the Amazing Original Music and Remixed Music with some added Extras.
- Fun Boss Rush Mode/Boss Rush Multiplayer Mode
- New and Improved Stage 5’ Compared to Original
- Extras Give More Reason to Explore Expansive Stages to 100%

Bad:
- Graphics Are Heavily Dated As Most 2.5D Games on the PSP Usually Are
- Game Doesn’t Perfectly Control Like Rondo
- Wish There Was More Added Content
- Did Not Fix Meh Stage 1/2 of Dracula Which is a Shame Since it’s One of the Few Bad Bosses in Rondo of Blood

One of the best 2D platformers of all time remade for the modern era… or rather the era of the late 2000’s. The Poor Graphics do sour this game, and I do wish that we had more stages/extensions to short stages from Rondo. However, it is undeniable to say that this game doesn’t perfectly lean on the gameplay aspects that made the original great.

The added reasons for exploration only see to enhance the game’s original stage design, and the added bosses perfectly follow the great and dynamic boss design of the original.

While I wouldn’t say in it’s current state it replaces the original, I would say if just a few things were changed, it wouldn’t be crazy to say that this is the definitive version of Castlevania: Rondo of Blood.

Probably the most fun i've ever had with a classic Castlevania game.

Dracula X Chronicles is not only a great game, but a great remake aswell, it fixes problems with the original game, comes with a ton of bonus content (including the original Rondo of Blood & Symphony of the Night as unlockables and the soundtrack of all the games with a feature to change in which stage the songs are played)

The remake also adds new cutscenes, a new boss, a new final form for Dracula and changes some of the stages, mostly in a positive way.

Gonna be posting more thoughts when I beat the original version which is apparently better, especially because I don't have to do extra shit to get the true ending (i got the bad ending here). Great game though and pretty solid remake it seems.

I don't love the graphical style of this game as much as the original but its still a really cool and faithful remake!

A solid remake of a great game, but graphics are a little ugly these days. Even if you are repulsed, you can unlock the original AND symphony of the night in full so no risk even. Remake gets a 7, entire package gets a 9!

the remake is pretty okay but it has two of the best games in the series as a bonus

Remake 2.5D del Rondo of Blood que se me ha hecho muy cuesta arriba. No me ha molado nada la jugabilidad en su paso a los gráficos 3D, muy tosca y me sacaba un montón ver esos gráficos y el tío andando siempre.

De hecho me han quedado bastante cosas por desbloquear, no he completado ni el final bueno, pero estaba deseando terminar... Los bosses tampoco se me han hecho nada entretenidos ni su plataformeo. Como punto positivo, su diseño artístico y, sobre todo, bso sí que me han molado.

It is a good remake but easier than the original game.

I have no idea why they marketed this as one game with two bonus games, when the bonus games are drastically better than the main game, and probably the reason why most people bought this game.

Both looks and plays worse than the original Rondo of Blood, but it's pretty good regardless. The post-game stage 5' is more substantial, which was appreciated, and there's a few fun twists. I don't know, there's not much to say. It's better than Dracula X, I guess? It's fun, it's good, but it's nothing special.

Não tenho muito o que dizer sobre o remake de Rondo, pra mim foi uma experiência bem divertida e desafiadora na medida certa, apesar de não ser o meu primeiro contato com este estilo de jogo (antes eu tinha jogado Castlevania 3 na versão japonesa).
Quanto a defeitos que encontrei, talvez um único ponto seja que a maioria das boss battles foram bem fáceis, com excessão da luta contra a Morte e a Annette.
Pra mim é um jogo sem sombra de dúvidas que merece um 7 ou no máximo um 7.5, mas como esse jogo tem conteúdos extras fodas (Castlevania SOTN e Rondo of Blood original de PC Engine) eu darei 8/10 mesmo LOL.
E não, não farei o final verdadeiro. Preguiça da porra.

This might be my favorite CV. Yes I actually prefer the remake to Rondo of Blood. Plus like the remake comes with Rondo and Symphony so it's a double win. While Rondo is a great game, I can see some people not liking the art style of this game compared to that one. I actually like it. I think it gives it a more horror theme pallet. I also don't hate the redesigns and new features. For one they made the final boss so much better in this version. Also the music is just of a better quality. I don't understand the hate for this one. I mean it's not the SNES Dracula X.

who the fuck cares about the remake worth it because it bundles symphony of the night AND rondo of blood

yeniden oynadım sadece alternatif levellerden gittim

Top 10 jogos que nunca vou zerar

O score médio desse jogo só é tão alto (3,7) porque o PSP realmente é repleto de jogos ruins XD. Basicamente um """castlevania""", porém completamente linear e extremamente fácil.
