Dracula X Chronicles screens - worst looking game on PSP?

i don't think you get it, the people that are defending the DS games graphics are saying that it looks better in an artistic way, not a technical way. Those graphics for the PSP version are more than likely not even possible on the DS, but for castlevania i prefer stylized 2d graphics. Again, you could say the same thing about the N64 castlevania and the PS1 one. The good thing about the PSP game is that it will have similar gameplay to the 2D games even though it is 3d.

Yours are the posts in this thread that have made the most sense.

First of all, too many people think that 3D graphics mean better graphics.  Personally I thought Castlevania: Symphony of the Night looked way, way better than Castlevania 64.  Just because something has graphics made up of polygons instead of sprites does not mean that it looks better.

This said, I don't think PSP Dracula X is a bad-looking game.  I think the character models are pretty sucky, but the backgrounds look great.  Personally I would probably prefer the graphics of the DS games, but if they had better character models the PSP game could come out on top.  But even so, it would have been better if they had just stuck to 2D with a few 3D enemies/items as a nice touch because I think it would have looked better.

The main thing about the videos, however, was the awesome, awesome music.  Great remixes.  I hope they redesign the PSP quick (and well) so I'll be tempted enough to buy one when this game comes out!
