Following last year's excellent Portrait of Ruin, Konami releases the equally amazing Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia for the Nintendo DS. The introduction of a new hero, the mysterious and sexy babe Shanoa, drives the intriguing storyline. There's also an innovative new glyph absorption system, which keeps the game fresh with its combination attacks. The 2-D graphics are wonderfully drawn, the soundtrack is epic and the bosses are among the best we've seen. We don't like the boring two-player races and item trading, but overall, this is one of the best Castlevanias to date.
