>Top Tier: Castlevania X68000
Good taste.

Rusty is the correct answer.

>>4396856
Fuck that autoscrolling tower level.

Play both, sperg.

>>4396736
Bloodlines is underrated, SC4 overrated, both are great

neither are consoles.


>>4396736
both are solid but i prefer bloodlines as my tastes tend to appreciate good pacing and low slowdown over other aspects.

Spears are cool.

Bloodlines was too hard for me to enjoy casually. IV was too ugly for me to enjoy aesthetically. Rondo is the best of both worlds.

>>4396736

They both suck.

>neither are consoles.
Duh, but they're often used as ammo for console wars.
>both are solid but i prefer bloodlines as my tastes tend to appreciate good pacing and low slowdown over other aspects.
But Bloodlines has slowdowns, and why would you say the pacing is better than on IV? Sure, IV has the rotating room, but Bloodlines has certain boring setpieces that go on forever, like the floating platforms on the tower of pisa, or the autoscrolling sections.

>>4397951
He said low slow downs, not no slow downs.

>>4398040
Fair enough.

>>4397713
This. CV III is the only good Castlevania game.

>>4397951
oh dear you're a retard who can't read and wants to be a defensive fanboy, grow up lad.

>>4398278
What about that post is "defensive fanboy"?
>IV vs Bloodlines isn't console war faggotry
how new are you?

>>4398286
it kinda isn't.

Half the faggots who played Rondo on this board haven't even touched a pc engine. And almost certainly not an X68000

What else is worth playing on X68K? Surprisingly it has the nicest looking port of Ys III

>>4398402
You don't need to own an X68K to play that game since it got a perfect port to the PSX.

>>4398130
Literal trash. The only good Castlevania game is Contra Hard Corps time traveling alternate ending.

>>4396736
The gore in bloodlines is fantastic.

The atmosphere in Castlevania4 is fantastic.

>>4396821
What a fantastic coincidence.

>>4396736
>haven't even touched a pc engine. And almost certainly not an X68000

most faggots here are millennials. they've never heard of them before.

>>4398454
>perfect port to the PSX
oh fuck off.

>>4398402
the x6800 castlevania is shit though
I only slog through it sometimes for that amazing fm synth

What difference does it make though? Back in the day, nobody knew about the Sharp X68000. Not millennials, not gen X, not boomers, it was a system exclusive to Japan, most westerners became aware of it thanks to the internet in the 2000s/2010s.
