I wanted to post some quick impressions of Castlevania Judgment, which just hit stores today. We checked it out at E3, and told you we weren’t overly impressed with the franchise’s foray into the fighting genre. I can’t say that I’ve changed my mind at this point, but I do enjoy some of what the game has to offer. While the combat feels pretty limited and tedious at times, the real focus of the game in my mind is the rock-heavy soundtrack and the interactions between the various characters. I kind of compare the experience to Squaresoft’s Ergheiz: it wasn’t the best game, but you played it because your favorite characters were in it.
Hit the jump for more about the game’s music and hilarious text. (more…)
