Old Game+: Super Castlevania IV

25 November 2012 by Daniel Tolin

Old Game+ is our retro review video series, where Dan takes a fresh look at games from yesteryear to see how well they hold up in this day and age.

First up in this review series – Super Castlevania IV!

SCVIV is renowned for being one of the best games in the series, and generally lauded as a great platform game in general, but does it still play that well today? Dan takes an in-depth look and one (rage-filled) play session to find out if it really is as good as people regard it, or if it is just the rose-tinted glasses of nostalgia.

I’m aiming for one or two a month, since these take a long time to produce. I’m starting work on the next episode in the coming week, so expect to see it within a fortnight.
