Gaming Price Inflation: Castlevania


Genki has noticed the vast inflation of late in the prices of the handheld versions of Castlevania or Akumajo Dracula. By either name Konami's series has had the strength in gameplay and the boldness in development to maintain a triple A series throughout the various formats it has graced since the Famicom era. The artwork here is from the fine DS version Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow.



 Vast cavernous levels that hide a multitude of secrets for determined gamers and all beautifully lit with flickering flames that almost drop atmosphere from them like molten wax. The stylus helps reveal hidden areas by breaking away walls and the use of the top screen for a map is a big bonus for those who wish to exorcise every last demon from the vast halls and nooky crannies. Follows on from the GBA games and maintains the impeccable standards.
