The legendary action game, Castlevania: Rondo of Blood (the "lost" chapter never seen before outside of Japan) is reborn on the PSP system with incredible 3D graphics and timeless side scrolling gameplay in Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles. Gamers take up the Vampire Killer whip as Richter Belmont as they seek to destroy the maniacal Dracula once and for all in this pivotal piece of the ongoing Castlevania saga. Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles also includes unlockable versions of the original Rondo of Blood and Symphony of the Night games, delivering incredible gameplay and value, while updating two of the most beloved video games of all time for a new generation of gamers.

Now this is as interesting entry in this series has both of these games earned a dedicated cult following but aren’t often remembered among the franchise’s high-points like the ‘Sorrow’ saga and of course the classic Symphony of the Night so revisiting these ‘pretty good’ games is a pretty interesting prospect."
It's also worth noting that Dracula X Chronicles contains the original game too. I disagree with Game Sack about the 2.5D aesthetic of the remake as I don't mind it at all. I think both versions of this game are great though. I'm glad I scored a bargain bin copy of this game for $10 new several years ago.
