I´am a huge Fan of Castlevania, this was my first game 1987 on Nes. On my pic can you see Alucard, please guys buy this game. it has 20 hours gameplay, and the end sequenz has 20 minutes. This game deserve a good selling, because you get not a 0815 junk. If the game sells good, comes a another game from mercurysteam. The game has not a cliffhanger, belive me that game is great and goty.

i don't agree at one point, clos isnt gow.Castlevania was 1st of before Gow Hackn slay. Look at Lament of Innocence or the old N64 Castlevania, the game mecanics has Castlevania before Gow. Without Castlevania, we can not play gow today.

and devil may cry was a early resident evil, a action shooter with hackn slay elements
