Opening Snide Remarks: I loved the first Castlevania game, and I learned to 
love the sequel Castlevania II: Simon's Quest.  But will I love this game?  

****************************************************************************

Gameplay Description: Castlevania III harkens back to the gameplay of the 
original Castlevania.  The 2nd Castlevania game was more of an RPG.  Anyways,
there are a few RPG elements, but they've been toned down.  It's basically 
the same Castlevania game that you've played before.  
Liked: Classic Castlevania goodness.
Hated: Nothing.

****************************************************************************

Graphics Description: The graphics of Castlevania III look pretty much the 
same as the other Castlevania games.  Don't expect it to look like 
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.
Liked: Decent graphics. 
Hated: Nothing.

****************************************************************************

Sound/Music Description: Castlevania III has some great music.  It's sppoky
sounding and it fits the mood of the game.  The sound fx are good, as well. 
Liked: Great music.
Hated: Nothing.

****************************************************************************

Play Control/Game Design: As usual, the Castlevania controls are perfect.  
The game design is great, as well.
Liked: Perfect controls.
Hated: Nothing.

****************************************************************************

Improve: Just check out Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. 

RIYL: other Castlevania games. 

****************************************************************************

Final Words: Castlevania III is a great game.  If you hated other Castlevania
games, then this game won't change your mind.  But if you're a Castlevania 
fan, then this game deserves to be in your collection.
