"castlevania 3 (aria of sorrow) is an excellent game the ideas are good the graphics are top notch and the music is excellent. it took me just over 9 hours to complete but this game had me hooked from start to finish. I'm just sad that it was over so quickly but as with the other 2 castlevanias more options open up although i have completed this game once already i know that i will play this game over and over even after unlocking all the secrets this game is too cool for words i can't explain the feeling i had while playing but i will tell you it was great stealing souls (or borrowing put lightly) my best combination was lightning doll, curly and succubus out of 100 i would give this game 98 and i would highly recommend it to castlevania veterans and rookies" - sanu

"I had the first two castlevania games on the nes and i thought they were the best thing invented. A few years later i played Symphony of the night on the PS one and sadly another Castlevania game has not topped it yet. I went out and bought Circle of the moon later and it was decent but the quality wasn't there . I have just recently purchased Aria of Sorrow and it is bloody fantastic its just like symphony of the night but miniature also the new soul sucking power is great . If there is anyone out there like me that felt there should be a GBA version of Symphony of the Night than this is it! " - Alucard

"This is my favorite castlevania yet! battle through giant monsters,and get tons of weapons.This was a tricky game to beat but i found it out just like in all other castlevanias." - Graham G
