Okay, so firstly, this is only my personal rating based on my tastes. I recognize the fact that these are hailed as some of the finest games ever made. That being said, I absolutely did not enjoy these. The only one I did like was the second one, which is supposedly one of the worst ones because of how it diverted from the original formula. I do *not* enjoy games that are extremely difficult. Some people enjoy the challenge, and that's fine, but I game to escape and to relax and enjoy new experiences. I am not a hardcore gamer and I recognize that. I will definitely not be playing these again. I beat the first and second and most of the third before I just decided I was done. The save state feature is nice for people like me, but it's just not enough for me. Also the fact that FPS drops on my beast of a PC is pretty sad.

I love Castlevania but I'm convinced the only good games are SotN and up. The first game is awful, so is the second. Three is an interesting departure but still not good. Four is the first one I actually enjoyed but it has some ridiculous boss fights. This collection overall doesn't feel very modern. They could've added in a no fail mode that just allows you to keep playing and just losing your point allocation yet they just ported all the games. The save state system is a big help but it is some clunky and slow. Just overall feels like they didn't put too much effort into this.
