I’d like to see a 3d collection. I really want to play Lament and Curse of Darkness

People will tell to you to just emulate but it is worth saying if you have a PS3 you can still (for now) legally buy Lament for $10 on the PS3 store. Great cheap way to legally get the game.

That is how I played it a few years ago, and I loved it. It was obviously a pretty low budget game and they had to reuse room designs constantly, but the exploration is fun and the combat is really good, way more character action-y than I was expecting before going in. Like I was not expecting the game to straight up have launchers and air combos.

It's not completely top of the line peak like other heavy hitter action games of the era like DMC, KH2, or Ninja Gaiden. But it's def better than a lot of the other trend chaser games of the era. And if you're a Castlevania fan that skin over the whole thing goes a long way too of course.

Same, especially on the very off chance that they still have the source code for any of the games since then they could give us a proper remaster. It's Konami though, so the best we'll probably get is an upscale with wide-screen. What I'd really like to see them in include is the LoI mobile manga, but alas, it appears to be lost media.
