At least with GnG you were given a second jump and you had to make a large commitment to how you use that jump, and it could save your ass in some situations.
I can't even think of a single positive thing involving the CV NES trilogy controls.

I think that the only way you're going to nail a 10 (or 11) girl is if you have millions of dollars, a non maniac mansion, a bichon frise with a bow on it's head, a yacht, and multiple fast cars! i'm so sorry :/

I keep hearing you guys complaining about the "clunky" controls in Dracula X, but I don't hear any of you bashing the controls in CV1-3. What's the difference? They essentially have the exact same feel. I don't get it. <_<

well... I figured we're just sticking to the SNES games. :)

Far from it. The discussion started as comparing Dracula X to Rondo, and even to SotN. If you're gonna do that, you might as well write off every other CV game out there.

Mikael Akferldt quit Bloodbath

probably because he can't growl anymore

That's not the reason, because he IS still growling. On the Opeth/Mastodon tour, Opeth have specifically chosen songs in which Akerfeldt growls.

Arthur moves like he's shat himself.


Maybe he did. What else are you gonna do if you've gotta let one fly in the heat of battle?

I still stand by that these are awful games but with great soundtracks being the only redeeming factor.

Is this truth? I was specifically avoiding the tour because of Heritage... :o

They released the setlist a while ago, it includes songs like The Baying Of The Hounds and Heir Apparent.

Fun and profit.

Actually, no. I won't make any kind of a profit from this trip. More like debt. Fun and debt.

Oh, and law school.

Perhaps the same can be said of all birth control. But enough posting- have at you!

The games are designed around Simon's/Trevor's movements, of course. It's not as though they crafted a bunch of levels and then dropped a bollock and threw a massively inadequate character into them.

(It's like Ghouls 'n' Ghosts - it has its deliberate, methodical pacing precisely because Arthur moves like he's shat himself. It'd be a very different and potentially far less important game otherwise.)


What makes Ghosts 'N Goblins control better than CV is that you can turn around during a jump. That is, jump one direction and shoot in the other direction. That's what saves your ass vs. the red arremers.
