In case you missed it, Castlevania The Dracula X Chronicles has been released for the PSP this week.

This is a remastered (read PSP'd) version of Rondo of Blood, however the graphics have been enhanced with 3D like settings and the play has been optimized for the PSP.

I had the opportunity to sit down and play for a good hour last night and it really took me back. This is classic 2D side scroller action with the same type of play that we all flocked to in the original NES titles back in the day.

The PSP version features unlockable versions of both Rondo of Blood (The Original Version of NEC PC Engine fame) and Symphony of Night.  

It's definitely not something you're going to finish in one sitting as the controls take some getting used to and I've realized how old I actually am since my reflexes and anticipation skills aren't what they used to be.
