Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin
« on: Wednesday, December 06, 2006, 12:05:38 PM »
Well the wait is finally over, does anyone have this game yet? I just got mine today (heh heh) and so far I like it. I liked Dawn of Sorrow until i got the crappy ending, after that I didn't want to go back through that whole damn castle again. I hope this one is a lot better than the last, some of the improvements so far is that is has an online market, two characters to use and more RPG like elements. I haven't tried the online market yet, but we'll see how it goes.

Because I am a weak, weak man I ordered the huge preorder package that Gamestop.com was offering for the 15th anniversary of Castlevania even though I don't own a DS.  I am going to sell the game, the Castlevania DS jacket, and the Castlevania stylus set for like $25 to anyone interested here though.  I really wish I could play this game and I probably will sometime down the line but I don't see any reason for myself to own a DS yet, I don't do a lot of handheld gaming.  A friend at work is thinking about getting a DS Lite though and told me he would sell me his old style DS for like $70 so I will probably jump on that if he buys a Lite.

I'd love to try it as well, but no DS here either other than my wife's, and I don't like to borrow that from her too often.  I still want to play Children of Mana if I bother to do that...

I totally forgot to order the game for the bonus stuff until it was too late. So, I decided I was going to wait to pick it up. Maybe I'll ask for Christmas so I can play while I'm visiting the family and away from my usual distractions.

Would you be interested in my offer?  The game, the DS holder, and the stylus set for $25?  The shipping will be included in the $25 more than likely.
