Dawn of Sorrow is best Castlevania. I'm at the top of the page so I'm automatically correct.

Just curious, how old are you?
you're not using 100ppp so you're doubly wrong

23. I was conscious of them existing, I just never played any of them.

I'm a little older than you and I never got into them either.

Anybody else just seeling a silent black screen?
What does age have to do with it? I've never played a castlevania game.
I nearly spent $60 on this CD on Ebay once.

Super Castlevania IV is the best introduction to the series you could have.
I'm worried that it'd be too much setup to get done, though. The options for playing it are either capturing the remake/port on a PSP (Vita TV doesn't work IIRC) or applying a translation patch and emulating it.

wii vc!
it also doesn't especially need translated. it's kinda funnier watching the anime bullshit happen every now and then and not understanding what any of it is actually about

I endorse Vinny's idea of playing through games Matt Rorie wrote guides for.

Oh, right. Well, that solves that, I guess.
And yeah, Vinny would probably dig just seeing the cutscenes without knowing the dialogue.

Rondo of Blood and Order of Ecclasia are my favorites. Hope this does become a years long series and he eventually makes it there. Have they ever actually gone into plans for it at all?
Castlevania really is such a great series(probably my favorite), shame that Lords of Shadows 2 had so many developmental difficulties.Thought the first Shadows had an incredible sense of scale and by the end of it you felt as though you'd been on a grand adventure through a massive continent. Lords of Shadows 2 wasn't awful by any means and it had some good ideas but it's so inconsistent, especially in the weird city sections, that you can tell something went horribly wrong. Shame!

I've really come to think that Vinny and Alex compliment one another quite nicely. Vinny's unbridled enthusiasm pairs well with Alex's snarky candor.

The first ten minutes of SOTN are infinitely replayable for me.

I would even watch Vinny play MMOs. He can craft fun and enjoyment out of the most mundane of games.
I think the site has proven that we will watch Vinny do just about anything (explaining how a live show is set up, shaving Dan's head, etc.)

SUPERJUMP!
I remember getting a kick out of Dan's sojourn with WoW. Part of that was my own experience with the game, though.
edit: those block jumps *heavy breathing*

This games stupidity has no limit.
Yeah, I'd watch Vinny goof around in an MMO.

Circuit bent livestreams!
I like Vinny's subtle jab toward how Brad plays games during the block jumping part.
I played it for the first time a couple of years ago and it instantly became one of my favourite games ever, which doesn't happen often. I feel like replaying it every now and again.

DARK FORCES HE SAID DARK FORCES YOU HEARD IT I HEARD IT.
I don't think it was a jab at the way Brad plays games so much as an acknowledgement of the way he trolled Brad during the Demon's Souls run.

Yeah I really liked the game, being a 2D game it holds up really well too. I should buy Aria of Sorrow on the Wii U VC.
In some beautiful alternate universe, Ryan Davis and Dan Ryckert are working together at Giantbomb and making young hearts flutter. I feel like the two of them together could have been INCREDIBLE. They both are of that "Sure, I'll do that stupid/gross thing... I don't give any F's" mold.
Wait, Ryan? Aside from sitting on a cake, nothing really comes to mind... I think his dynamic would have been like he was with Will Smith, but magnified.

Ryan shot a container of anonymous breast milk.
That would have been a great pairing. Ryan also wouldn't have hesitated from calling Dan out on his malarkey. Would have made for some funny stuff.
Heh, that's right. I also recalled batman x 3 . com, but that was just cool.
He might have also incited flushing a pie down a toilet?

I would watch Vinny give Brad a haircut.
Hm, seems synched to me.
They said the day would never come! And by they I mean faithless Jimmy.
Not completely, no.
