Should you buy Castlevania order of ecclesia?

Answer 1

Castlevania Order of Ecclesia is a very good game my copy was bought for me but I would buy it again if I had too because its has alot of replay value and ect if you want to see why here is my reveiw of the game.

Overall 8/10
I felt it was a fun game as a stand alone it has an intriguing story and very fun play style however on the harder difficulty levels it is said to be one of the hardest Castlevania games ever. As a Castlevania game I felt it brought quite a few new things to the series such as the rune system and the rune combos (explained in game play).

Graphics 10/10
The graphics may be 2 demintional but they are amazing just as all of the Castlevania games graphics are.

Music 8/10
The music has a very creepy Victorian sound that really matches the style of the game.

Game Play 8/10
The game has the tried and true "Castlevania feel" but still brings new things into the mix such as the rune system that acts as all of your weapons and the rune combo system that works as your specials such as the holy water in older games. the rune sytem basicly is your weapon selection the rune combo is based upon what runes you have equiped some have special combos some give you a "basic" special.

Story 7/10
The story is great but is simple and has a few unexplained things but they arent a big deal also it has two parts at first I thought it was long but wasn't worth the play through because of the "Bad" ending but if you find all of the villagers it unlocks a second, longer, harder part of the game.

Replay Value 10/10
This game has great replay value including new modes after beating it a new character a boss ruch mode and a multiplayer race feature.

Final Score 8.5/10
The game way great I'd say you should buy it! but be warned the game decieves you in it's length it is a very long game that will take some time to beat if you unlock the second half that takes place in * spoilers start*
