Never played a Castlevania game in my life, but I saw a couple of the ports for sale on 360 a little while ago and I've been playing it constantly.
I just decided to get the one I heard the most about, so Symphony of the Night was it, and boy this game is awesome. Tough as hell too, I'm already stuck at the boss battle where you have to fight yourself.
Edit: HAHA!! I just beat him! Take that, self!!
Any tips? Nostalgic recollections?

Install a Gameboy emulator on your phone as well and play Aria of Sorrow. Amazing, just fantastic.
