Killer soundtrack, cool new enemy designs, like the mermans, its their best design. orginal tracks from this soundtrack was used in later games on Game Boy Advance. The composer was the same in Symphony of the Night.
@Kathe Schweinberg that's an obvious scam. I've seen these exact two comments in a lot of videos, and the second one saying it worked doesn't help you at all.
The song in the stage in Greece is one of my favorites in castlevania. I definitely love the rendition of it in the GBA Circle of the Moon title the most.
Huge fan of this game. It has so much going on, with two worthy characters to play with, arcade-like fast and smooth gameplay, great level design, a lot of memorable set pieces (the different play locations through Europe was such a good idea), a lot of creative visual effects (the reflection on the water, the rotation on the tower...), a more gory dimension than usual in the series, some crazy boss fights and that soundtrack is absolutely majestic!!! Only downsides are a few janky animations and a few empty backgrounds, all of which due to Konami cheaping out on the cart size (only 8 meg, it's rather low by 1994 standards) and rushing the development process. But still, overall, Bloodlines (AKA Vampire Killer in Japan) is the best Classicvania IMO and a strong contender for a top 100 best Mega Drive games. It's just a shame that a Bloodlines 2 never happened. It could have been great on 32X or Saturn.
Quite possibly the best Castlevania title of all time...definitely my personal favorite...fantastic weapon upgrades & a veritable cornucopia of enemies & bosses with tremendous backgrounds...the replay value of this game is unsurpassed...unquestionably one of the best games to own for the Genesis system - they don't make them any better than this one!
My first game ever. Loved it. And my first cruch ever, Elizabeth was so beautiful. xDD I hope they remake this entire franchise with Kojima Ayame as the lead artist and Michiru Yamane as the composer.
Am I the only one who doesn’t remember the Castlevania I and III soundtracks playing when your spear is all the way charged up and flaming? I feel like the only time I ever heard those in this game was when I explored the sound test section in the options
Stage 1 Romania: A Fun Intro Level with Beginner level Challenge Stage 2 Greece: Teaches you about Interacting with the Stage, Not too Bad Stage 3 Italy: Starting to get Difficult with More Precise Platforming and Getting Punished for failing it Stage 4 Germany: Dealing with Enemies that have for intricate attack patterns Stage 5 France: Near Peaking in Difficulty, Pitting you against Monsters and Bosses that have a lot of Health now Stage 6 England: The Finale, And it shows you how to deal with Interesting Effects on Screen, Along with Platforming with the Warped Screen
It took you 8 mins to get where I've finally made it after several deaths 🤣🤦♀️ I'm playing on NSO for the 1st time and wanted to know why I'm powering up when I crouch. But heyyy cracked walls
I though you could only the original music with John on expert at full health and full weapon... well prove me wrong. 😜 Rarely played as Eric. And i never beat this game! Argh! Still have it though....

angel ranzyel A historia é a mesma , mais cada um personagem tem um tipo de vantagem , exemplo : O Jonh pode jogar o Vampire Killer nas paredes assim se pendurando , ja o Eric pode jogar sua lança a qualquer ponto a 360° graus , ou seja qualquer parte que seja possivel , tambem ele pode dar um " Super " pulo segurando baixo e botão de ataque ..
Para ser un juego corto, estaría genial ver más cuartos especializados para las habilidades de uno de los mains character, fuera la regla, osea no solo no duraría 50 minutos de Gameplay, sino que multiplicarías ese número por más bifurcaciones y la experiencia de jugar con uno de ellos sería diferente y más acorde, a ser la zona algo laberíntico y que los propios personajes tomarán rutas distintas
I now officially own all the castlevania games except a few that weren't that great anyway in have castlevania 1,2,3 super castlevania 4, castlevania x Dracula , Castlevania bloodlines ' symphony of the night, castlevania chronicles those r the best castlevania games
@@MattC.98 I have blood lines the sega version but rondo of blood is a good version never played it but seen videos on it I'm really like castlevania 4 trying to beat it as we speak getting further in it
@@nickshannon7309 Rondo was released for pc engine and a minor version for snes. But you can play it on ps4 I guess. Is the first part of Simphony of the Night.
Meh. Drac x isn't so great imo neither is cv4. But whatever - I mean I actually think the 64 games and LoI are really great and por and OoE too. Los1 is alright. Certainly they're all better than drac x or cv4. Rondo is fine despite the style and tone being borderline insulting to the series it's a part of.
CV4 was just too easy and was a dazzle show all the kids loved it cause it had great stage design but the character is just can whip in every direction there’s no challenge it bored me years ago…..now Bloodlines is just a classic
No, it's not a hack. A cheat is used to get the expert difficulty, and have the classic CV themes play when the weapon is at full power. You can do it on a real copy of the game on a console.
You can also access Expert mode by beating Normal mode. Once the credits have finished and the title screen shows up again, if you go into the options you'll be able to change the difficulty to Expert.
О люди Писания! Не проявляйте чрезмерности в вашей религии и говорите об Аллахе только правду. Мессия Иса (Иисус), сын Марьям (Марии), является посланником Аллаха, Его Словом, которое Он послал Марьям (Марии), и духом от Него. Веруйте же в Аллаха и Его посланников и не говорите: «Троица!». Прекратите, ведь так будет лучше для вас. Воистину, Аллах является Единственным Богом. Он пречист и далек от того, чтобы у Него был сын. Ему принадлежит то, что на небесах, и то, что на земле.

What about france??!!😮

Bloodlines 2 is portrait of ruin.
All credit to you man! Beating this game on expert with Eric is incredible! WOW! ^^

this is truely a testament.to timeless gamplay and graphics the artwork is amazing and has held up well with age i want this game!!
haunted version of contra hard corps
Surprised not to see the spear twirl move. It's kinda broken and OP, but so cool!
My first game ever. Loved it. And my first cruch ever, Elizabeth was so beautiful. xDD
I hope they remake this entire franchise with Kojima Ayame as the lead artist and Michiru Yamane as the composer.
I always liked how there are decaying corpses strewn about but he’ll still happily eat a rack of ribs that he found in a wall
This is so much better than Castlevania on the SNES.
Best Castlevania Game hands down!
Love using the super jump to take short cuts. No sewer for me in first level.
Look at all of the lovely creatures Ms. Countess Bartley left for you to kill in her drive to revive her uncle, Count Dracula. ;-)
Favorite classic game, nice play keep it up !!
I LOVED this game as a kid
This is awesome!!!
love this game
Wonderful review! 🔥🔥🔥
Best castlevania
I'd say with Eric is easier than with John. That upward jump can be pretty effective, not to mention that you can hit in any direction you want.
Agreed. With John, I struggled to complete Normal mode, but with Eric completed Normal and Expert much more easily.

I hate the censured version, this is much better.
I miss this for the Sega I played the hell out of this as a kid now I'm 31 and wanna play again on sega
Knowing that dracula X came out before this hurts my feelings, I feel robbed 👺
Uno delos mejores juegos 👍
I though you could only the original music with John on expert at full health and full weapon... well prove me wrong. 😜 Rarely played as Eric. And i never beat this game! Argh! Still have it though....
This and Rondo of Blood are personally my favorite Castlevania games. They're just so great in every way.
Every IGAvania (or Metroidvania if you will) shits all over these games
Nostalgia...
Nintendo: Family friendly game.
Genesis: Hardcore game.
@Lucas. Hahaha. SNES cannot beat Blast Processing.
You get to visit all sorts of touristy locations all over Europe. Except Germany where you only visit a munitions factory.
Well germany is also kinda famous for their factorys maybe i dunno.
Best Catlevania version I ever played
Dude, seriously, I would have to cheat to be that good! How long have you been playing Bloodlines?
'Congratulations, you are Master of the Vampire Killer'
Ummm, I used a Halberd not a whip . Doesn't even look..... oh never mind.
XD
I'm up all night
💪
Great Game.
22:20 pretty epic
i guess the gear creature is supposed to represent a robot, cause yeah even they're considered monsters too
I like how Alucard Spear is called Alcarde lol
Eric Legarde sounds more like a "franchute" than a Spanish.
Lmao bro just says fuck the pollen and the reversed controls.
Juegazo!
This game would been great if it had a timer and time bonus as well.
this is one if my top childhood games .Did this game ever release for any new system or and classic mini??
doradomuzik sega mini
it is part of Castlevania anniversary collection for PC, Switch, PS4 and Xbox one
@@stuff5499 And it’s coming to Nintendo Switch Online via the new Expansion Pack
i love it
Does this game adopt some character amphibious monsters of The Trench from Aquaman??
He is in everyone
se me partía la pantalla pasando la mitad del juego T_T siempre quise llegar a la final
Supongo que te refieres a la fase del castillo donde se corta la pantalla y es difícil avanzar pero es así, no es que tu juego estuviera roto.
I always liked the mid-boss music better....
uno de los juegos de mi infancia que Hasta hoy en día jamás pude completar aún. you make it look soo easy
So does Eric when powered up get the classic music themes?
Esse jogo é simplesmente sensacional
eso uno de los mejores juegos de la historia pero a mi se me partía la pantalla siempre en la mitad del juego u.u
A very good game that reminds me of my youth, and sometimes I still play it
Why is the soundtrack all weird? "Beginning" plays like 50 times.
Omggggggg the very first video game I ever played
Damn your making me feel old over here 1st game I played was Nightstalker for colecovision I think way back in 1982

Circle of the moon
Chakra master best unlockable player
Castlevania 3 on nes has more detailed backgrounds pretty more colors
I'm playing this game today I'm on level 5
I didn't know this guy was a playable character ☹️
His spear changes hand when he turns around }>_$
This was a bit sped up and is the same longplays video...
What's the code ???
How did you keep the green glow after you got hit?
Barra Mansa BM Pride.
good gamer
I have the game and I wasn't born in the 1990s
is it emulation or are they playing the original game
looks like emulation but I could be wrong. Colors look more muted than on original hardware but there is a chance my TV made them look garish
31:01 Metal........Gear....??
John Morris pro eric qual diferença, oque muda ?
