I was well surprised to hear this franchise is 25 years old. It first appeared on the Snes back in the day but it's been updated for 2010.

An action adventure game in the mould of or more recently
Of course your task is to save the world from evil and there are some big evil creatures to destroy. Thankfully enough has been added to this game to make it different from previous titles so puzzle solving and platform gaming are extra elements to master in Castlevania.

Graphically impressive, Vocal talents from Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) Amongst others give the game an all round feeling of bigness. Yes the story is a bit cheesy but who cares the games fun. 20 hours of gameplay isnt that much so heavy gamers might get bored quickly.

Two button mashing will get you quite far in this game but learning the buttons will help you to progress quicker. Theres quite alot of depth to this game that only becomes apparent when you get deeper into it. So persistance pays. If you liked or God of War this game may well appeal to you. So use your combat cross(looks like a big chain to me) to knock out opponents and scale buildings and then decide if you like Black or White magic and step out of the shadows in order to run tings in Castlevania!!! mwah ha ha hah!!!( Evil laugh)
