Reviews Summary
The greatest game ever
Even after 10 years, it's still most definitely worth playing
A gaming masterpiece
Gameplay on the 360 is almost perfect, but for the mushy d-pad on the wireless controller
A momentous addition to the Xbox Live Arcade family, both because of its incredible depth and the fact that it is the first game allowed to break the 50 MB size restrictions
Easily one of the greatest games of all time, this is a pretty solid version minus a few oddities and a piss-poor d-pad
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is the epitome of the side-scrolling genre.

BONG! "More proof, as if any was needed that quality retro games stand up to re-play, even compared to their newer counterparts. Proof also to the fact that the downloading of retro games on 'nextgen' consoles is an integral selling point to gamers.
