4 August 2006

The September issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly reports that Konami is resurrecting the cult PS1 game Castlevania: Symphony of the Night on Xbox Live Arcade. Along with Symphony of the Night, Konami is also bringing back other classic hits, some revered (Frogger, Contra, Super Contra, Track & Field) some obscure (Time Pilot), and some really obscure (Scramble).

1UP mentions Konami told them the game is tentatively set for a first quarter 2007 release on Xbox Live Arcade. They also mention the Xbox Live title is not the Sega Saturn version, but the famous PlayStation One version. Although we can expect an upgrade to HD graphics on the Xbox 360. Here’s what the intro looked like on the PS1 system:

The single-player campaign of Starhawk is really quite addictive… a little unoriginal at times but it has some really great moments! Can’t wait to talk about this one.
