Castlevania Day!
My local EB Games got their shipment of Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin in today, and I got to pick up my pre-order copy of the 20th Anniversary set. The art book is beautiful and full of nostalgia-inducing scenes from Rusty’s childhood, and the CD of game music is worth the price I paid for the whole gift set. I haven’t even opened the game yet, and the purchase is still oh so worth it.
Why haven’t I put Portrait of Ruin into the DS yet? Because out of the blue, Allyson told me I could buy a game on Monday, and I chose Final Fantasy 3. Castlevania games should be savored like fine wine. I might spend my lunch break with it tomorrow.
Castlevania release days are like having a second Halloween in the year.
