http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kynXr3wIJJo It's coming up pretty soon. And 12 people ,myself included (Under my Music Pen name:BONKERS) have been working the last year making arrangements mostly of just the music from the first game. (Since it is the 25th anniversary of that specific game,though there are other musical references to other games here and there.) I'm personally doing 14 minutes of music for it, and it will be free to download as well as a small limited print run (AFIK) of physical copies just to make back the money it costs to make them. So, on topic. Anyone else planning anything fun for the anniversary? Such as a mega play through of your favorite game in the series or what not? It's a shame we haven't gotten anything this year other than Akumajo Dracula Tribute Vol.1&2 from Konami itself.

I'm actually still working on some tracks right now as I type this. I've been up literally everyday in Sept until at least 6 AM or more (with a day or two off here and there)working on this stuff since my stuff got pushed back due to a knee injury in May. So it's been happy crunchtime month for me! hahahah
i like the x68k version the most followed by akumajou dracula for pc engine. and i really like the music and the vid
I can't really say what my exact favorite is because i've got so many memories from playing all of them! YAR, I haven't played Lords of Shadow yet, and so once i'm finished with my work i'm going to finally play through it! The Limited Edition has been sitting on my shelf for months now!
What if at the end of a stage you didn't find a boss. But a wee little kitty cat? I had this idea randomly yesterday and made it in like 5 minutes! XD Stupidly silly. http://www.box.net/shared/ri2hrn14jfsvlfr5zo3y Also:It's supposed to sound all low bit-rate'ish on purpose.
EDIT: IT IS OUT. www.Vampirevariations.com http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6kABiKRuvU Last promotional video for post-release! I've also managed to play through Castlevania X68K(original mode:FUCKHARD,originally have only beaten it on arrange mode), Lords of Shadow(amazing) and Order of Ecclesia(AWESOME, I spent more time playing this than any Castlevania game in recent memory, even more than Lords of Shadow) for grand year! As well, for something else and as a special OMAKE LISTEN TO THIS http://www.box.net/shared/tfkbtd4fixgtu656p8cj
