    I'm playing this on the ps1 emulator and it's glorious! So different from other Castlevanias, feels way more arcade and the graphics are awesome

    Good choice to start the new year with.
    Chronicles is definitely an amazing remake with some of the best sounding remixes for Castlevania.

    El bloody tears de Castlevania chronicles remasterizado para play 1 es una joya total me atrevo a decir que es la más elaborada y épica de todas las versiones que han salido hasta ahora! Cuando llegaba al nivel de la catedral donde enfrentabamos a medusa me olvidaba que era yo y me transformaba en Simon Belmont! Que pedazo de música!

    Yo sigo prefiriendo la versión del X68000, por todo el detalle grafico y auditivo, ya que se pierde mucho de esto en la versión de PS1, a parte que no le hace justicia la musica a diferencia de si lo ponias con el sintetizador Roland CM64 no tenia comparacion, buen video espero ver mas comparativas asi como regionales como Castlevania 3 vs Akumajo Densetsu entre otros juegos de Konami

    • @BitsBeats

      También es mi favorita... y mi elección también cae por la parte del sonido. Soy muy vieja escuela en ese sentido y prefiero los sintes a esas remezclas del juego de Playstation

    @violator1017 2 роки тому +17

    The side by side comparison is not correct...
    When you display the game (starts at 2:18), you put the 2 versions coming from the PS1 version, the "enhanced" and the "original".
    The X68000 version is 512x512 resolution game(256 x 256 with doubled pixel at 31Khz) and what you're showing here is a 15Khz 256 x 224 version, meaning that's a PS1 version.
    So, basically you display the 2 PS1 versions here and not the PS1 VS X68000... 😐

    Graphically, both versions are stellar. The PS1 delivers a bit more though. In terms of gameplay, the PS1 title is stupendously difficult. Regardless, I'm thrilled to own Castlevania Chronicles. Great comparison. ✌🏻

    La versión de ps1 me gusta un poco más por tener el arte de ayami Kojima, y lo mejor es que incluye la versión original de la sharp x68000 con su música y todo, y que además está en una consola mucho más accesible que la sharp 68000 que solo está en Japón.

    As someone who owns an X68000, for me personally it's the more definitive way to play the game. The same way playing Rondo of Blood is on a real PC Engine is. I know 3D was the hip thing at the time. But the intro on the PS1 version just feels cheap and undetailed. I also prefer the music in the X68000 version as well. I've played them both and gameplay wise they are basically the same. However the "extras" they threw in just felt underwhelming. But if you don't want to spend a ton of money on a computer that may not work and a game that could be moldy or corrupted, it's as good as an alternative gets I suppose. You could also install an internal flash cart to your X68000 and play the game that way. It's a shame this is such a hard one to track down and play because it really is quite good. There's a ton of lost stuff on the X68k that will probably never see the light of day ever again.

      Yeah, I understand why they would do CD audio on PS; they have the disc space and there isn't really midi hardware. But the sound on X68000 is fantastic, and even better if you can run midi.
      Currently playing through this on my MISTer Pi X68000 core with the MT32-Pi acting as a Roland midi device. It's a lot cheaper for people who want to try something like this (under $300 vs $2000 for an actual X68000 and more for a midi device).

    • @anthonywilson6611
      @anthonywilson6611 4 дні тому

      @Mr.Pokeylope9082 yeah the system is NOT cheap. To me it's worth it. Emulating such a great system seems asinine to me. But to each their own. Not everyone has big money to drop on stupid stuff.

    I honestly don't like Ayami Kojima's redesign of Simon. I love her work in Symphony of The Night, Alucard's design is brilliant and works very well for the game's purpose, but I think her style doesn't convey very well the beefiness physique of the Belmonts.
