A well written review. My only complaint would be a small redundance in the beginning where you mention US gamers haven't had the chance to play Rondo. Other than that it was informative. I orginally said, "10/10? 4 REALZ?!" And then I remembered the price of the game and how much you're getting. Worth it alone for SoTN.
Good job, you get this banana sticker:

Good Stuff. I agree with the value for money and replay/playability completely.

Good review, I agree with almost everything you had to say. Let's hope the Konami will develop more castlevania games for the PSP.

How about the fuckin' difficulty?!
I had to give the game a mental 9 because of how hard it is to a newb like me

I would agree with this take on the difficulty:
Older Castlevania games are notorious for being tough as nails, and while Rondo isn’t the hardest Castlevania game out there, it’s definitely challenging. Even the most miniscule of enemies are capable of putting Richter in his grave fairly quickly, so you’ll need to act quickly and with precision. On the bright side, the difficulty never becomes overwhelming and deaths aren’t cheap or unfair because each enemy follows distinct patterns that allow you to determine exactly what’s coming next.
I wrote it, so I guess I'd have to agree.

The deaths are, at times, cheap and underwhelming. I know that getting killed by the fucking boss, losing my fuckin hearty power, and having to replay that that boss just to get fucking raped pisses me off...
Maybe it's because of my lack of castlevania experience

I normally have to play Castlevania bosses more than once just because my lack of patience. I always think, "Maybe I can hit him ONE more time."

I fought the second boss maybe, 8 times so far
