With 8 classic games from an iconic series, Castlevania Anniversary Collection is a must-play compilation for any gamer whether you're a retro junkie or you simply want to explore the roots of gaming. If you'll excuse me, I have to slay Dracula for the umpteenth time.

The Castlevania Anniversary Collection is a required pick-up for fans of the classic whip-slinging series. Granted, there are a couple of minor problems with this set, most notably the lack of button-remapping. Hopefully they're being worked on. Still, it's hard to argue with having four of the all-time best action-platformers around. Plus you get four other games, which range from awful to pretty good. Whether you decide to pick this up now, or wait for the region-select and other fixes, you're guaranteed a good time.

Castlevania Anniversary Collection is a really fantastic loveletter to the Classicvania era of the series, including seven fantastic games (and one bad one) emulated well for a new generation. M2 strikes gold again with this compilation, and while it doesn’t include any crazy new features save for the Kid Dracula translation and a cool eBook that includes a bunch of box art and concept designs, the games still all run exceptionally well, with the only gripes I have being the (current) lack of a region select option, the total lack of Dracula II from the Japanese collection, the sound channel bug for Castlevania 1, and the lack of a button configuration.
