Akumajou Densetsu > Castlevania 3

Super Castlevania 4's Death is unforgiving.

Speaking of which, what do you guys think is the hardest boss battle in any Castlevania game?

[Satoryu]

hmm. there are a couple candidates for that. the Zombie Dragons, Eligor, Galamoth, just to name a few.

Jugement related; the official art for Trevor and Grant is posted on the official site.

Regarding the bosses... hm.  I'm still relatively new to Castlevania, but I'd have to go with the boss of the first Egyptian stage in Portrait of Ruin; I forget what she was called, but the first time I fought her, I lost control of Jonathan and he killed Charlotte. D;

Like with most games, CV Bosses basically just have to be a thing that you learn their patterns/quirks, and soon afterward, you're good.

Probably one of my fave boss battles would have to be the Werewolf fight in Chronicles/X68000. Gyat damn mutt likes to spam throwing pieces of that clock, and that got me for a while.

Uh this is kinda hard to judge objectively. Especially in Catsleroids where you level up as you progress.

I can tell the name of one of the most hated enemies though, it's Gergoth.

actually, SC4's Death ain't too bad once you know what to do. there are harder Death fights. Rondo's Death was pretty relentless with the sickles. CotM's was really annoying, moreso the second form. Aria's was pretty tough, as was PoR's.

[Nekomata]

Gergoth is pathetic with high enough MP and the Medusa soul.. >.>

[Ephidiel]

Order of Ecclesias  Death is probably the cheapest death ever.
It takes around 10 Seconds to beat him with no damage on LV42

OoE's Death is pathetic. i was probably around lvl35 when i beat him, and i was just using Nitesco.

I love Death in Dawn of Sorrow, not too easy, not too hard, but so awesome.

In Circle of the Moon he was pretty difficult.

In Portrain of Ruin he was only difficult on the level cap modes.

In Harmony of Dissonance/Symphony of the Night he was a pussy.

In Aria of Sorrow he was about the same as DoS, but less awesome.

People say that the hardest Death battle is in the original Castlevania on the NES though. Is his pattern that hard to memorize in it?

What about Death in Lament of Innocence, or for that matter any other Castlevania game, is he any worthy of a difficult fight?

Out of the bosses I have fought, I would have to consider that Dracula from Circle of the Moon is the hardest boss for me so far.

when you're not spamming Holy Water, he's pretty damn hard.

[Karai]

You want pathetic Death? Go play Legends.

[Nekomata]

LoI Death is easy as hell.. >.>

[Ephidiel]

i might have missed something but
who is Ralph Belomendo is this the japanese name for Trevor Belmont? but he sure was called Trevor in CoD, i played through it with the japanese voices.

[Acid]

Ralph and Trevor are one and the same.

[Ephidiel]

i thought so but why the name change

[Acid]

Dunno. Maybe Ralph was not manly enough for America. Or the japanese enjoy saying 'Ralph'.

[Solar]

Dunno. Maybe Ralph was not manly enough for America.

Surprisingly, IIRC that is the correct answer.

[Satoryu]

but he sure was called Trevor in CoD, i played through it with the japanese voices.

reading the subititles doesn't count, as that's from the English script.

[Solar]

Well, even then, wouldn't he notice people calling Trevor "Ralph"?

[Ephidiel]

now this is bugging me
i need to play the game again to make sure. but my ps2 is dead
