That old queen Drac smashes a wine glass at Richter during the beginning of the game...what a catty bitch!
I'll be needing any that I might be missing from the GBA/DS libraries...
Man, someone needs to do a proper film adaptation of Castlevania. Not too many CG effects, mostly make-ups, costume, and latex/rubber animatronic creatures. ONLY use the CG for things like magical transformations and creatures that would be far too difficult to do in-camera. Classical soundtrack, of course, though I can hear 'Holy Diver' playing during certain scenes...and they should find a way to work Dante (Devil May Cry) into the film, as well!! Ok, ok...I'm done..
Simon Belmont: Jim Caviezel
Richter Belmont: Chris Hemsworth
Alucard: Adrien Brody
Hammer: Ving Rhames
Maria Renard: Liv Tyler
Dracula: Ray Stevenson
...etc.....etc...
Spiders, I agree 100000%. I remember salivating over the PC Engine game art, years back....never got a Turbo-Duo, though..
( s'all good...I have Rondo of Blood on my PSP...)
Help?
Just saw an offer for an X-Box 360. Guys, fill me in, please:
I asked the guy about the GB size, he replied "Oh, it aint got a hard drive so you cant save yer game, but you can use a USB or a flash drive on it..." I asked what 'Model' it is, "Its one of the first ones, its white." Everything work well, any problems to report? "No problems at all, man, we played it just the other night." Any games/accessories? "Three controllers and three games; NHL, Mortal Kombat vs. DC, and NBA Jams."
$55 is the standing offer.
Well?
Ah....that shoddy, eh? ...Even for $55, with three games??
Damn....from what you guys have been telling me about the current consoles, I'm hesitant with my $$$....
Put it this way, which of the 'big three' is the STURDIEST? I'm beginning to think that these systems are like wine flutes..

The current models of all three should be fine. Buy new and I'd be very surprised if you had a problem with any of them.
If you're shopping for used consoles, then in order of most reliable to least reliable it arguably goes Wii, PS3, 360. The old 360s were notorious for overheating, in part due to a poorly designed internal layout (graphics card directly underneath the DVD drive). With current revisions they're a lot more efficient, run cooler in general and if you install games to the hard drive you'll obviously reduce the heat considerably.
(If it helps put things into perspective I've had a Wii since launch, PS3 since 2008 and 360 since last year. Never had a problem with any of them so far, knock on wood.)

Ah - Thanks, mate.
Oddly, the Wii is the cheaper of the three. Are there 'Gig' Models when it comes to the Wii, as well, or did Big N keep it simple?
Also, not to stereotype Nintendo's style, but are there any games of an 'adult' nature? Not military stuff, I mean horror/ghostly/aliens/monsters/occult/etc.... ?
