| Castlevania | Konami | 1999 | In Castlevania 64, you be able to select from two different player characters, each with different abilities. Reinhardt Schneider is the latest hero from the famous vampire hunting Belmont family, and is the most balanced character in the game. Carrie Fernandez is a 12-year old girl.*** [100]*** [12]*** [31]***European version [32]***US version [32]***Due to a misprint, the score was not shown on #97. However, in the next issue (#98), it was told that the score was 83%. [27]***Features the Necronomicon, one of H.P. Lovecraft's many creations.***Working titles: [i]Dracula 3D[/i] and [i]Dracula 64[/i]***I had high hopes for this game. The story seemed pretty good and the previews had promise. But I was disappointed with the graphics, music (or lack thereof) and general quality. The story and worlds are generally immersing, but they aren't nearly as complete as the follow-up, Circle of the Moon. [trevor belmont] | labelimagesubject |
| Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness | Konami (KCEK) | 1999 | It was released in 1999 and is a prequel and expanded version of Castlevania, also released on the Nintendo 64 earlier the same year. It contains a remake of the original game with improved graphics, added villains, and alternate versions of some levels.*** [100]*** [31]***Dracula's a tough fellow to pin down, so to speak, so it's no surprise that the popular Castlevania series has resurrected the nefarious guy nearly every year since the game's 1987 debut. Legacy of Darkness is both a prequel and an update to the early 1999 release, Castlevania, for the Nintendo 64. Set eight years prior to its predecessor's narrative, the creepy story introduces a new main character, Cornell, a young gent who moonlights as a werewolf. Dracula's posse has kidnapped Cornell's younger sister, and the man-wolf must conquer a collection of enemies, including Dracula himself, to save her. In addition to Cornell's quest, players can experience entirely unique adventures from the viewpoint of three other characters, adding to the game's replayability.*** [32]***You are the werewolf! It's not as cool as it sounds, but you do get possibly the most involved storyline in Castlevania history (spanning over an entire decade). The graphics and targeting are somewhat of a problem, but I still find this to be a fun game--much, MUCH better than the original N64 Castlevania. [Count Dracula] | labelimagesubject |
