The Vampyre Wit List
You know you play too much SotN when...
- you close your eyes and all you see is Alucard walking (back dashing) his way through various Castlevania locales.
- you write an Alucard fanfic.
- you make a webpage focusing on the game.
- you get your close friends or siblings to do the voice-overs while you play with the TV on MUTE.
- you can recite every voice over by memory.
- you level Alc up to 99 or get 9999 hit points (that's possible right?)
- you've found a section in the game where there's massive slow-down time in terms of the CD-ROM and used the jump boots, watching Alucard bash his head on on the ceiling over and over.
- you've named your familiars, and talk to them while playing the game.
- every room you walk into,you immediately imagine how it would look
"inverted".
- you find yourself laughing histerically whilst having Alucard stand on a Paranthupus's head.
- you call your father 'Dracula.'
- you beat the entire game (getting 200.6%) in under 5 hours
- you beat the entire game (getting 200.6%) in under 5 hours without saving! (my brother's next challenge ^_^')
- you've done all possible tricks using the 'name file.'
- you love getting him stuck in the narrow hallway in Olrox's room just to hear him say: "What!?" (or alternatively, you get the Axeman's suit and put it on him to hear him say that)
- you run around and yell at your friends to 'have at you!'
- you spend 5 months working on a costume for Halloween so you can
look EXACTLY like Alucard
- you buy anything and everything that reminds you of Alucard
because you think that it will help you get 'closer' to him
- you call your self Alucard when you introduce yourself
- you dream of the Dracula family visiting you in the night!

Below lies all things strange and mildly amusing that I've extracted from Symphony. Of course these clever comments and observations are all original and made by myself while vegetating on the couch while my brother whipped through the game one boring Sunday afternoon. Hopefully they aren't all beyond mortal comprehension.
Enjoy!

- Marionettes (dummies) drop smart potions
- $2000 come in garbage bags!
- Spittle Bone: it's raining indoors
- Pressing up while on a moving elevator: it's cold

"W-What were Lisa's last words?"
"She said to tell you to go to hell you old bastard!" =D
In the colosseum, bricks on the column say "B1", "B2", "1", or "2" depending on which level you're on:
"Now where did I park my car...?"
Flying up that long shaft above the water caverns with your bat familiar:
"Are we there yet?"
"No."
"Are we there yet?"
"No."
"Are we lost?"
"...No."
"Where are we going?"
Wanna see Al have indigestion? Put on the Topaz circlet and eat a Toadstool!
Don't think of it as looting the castle; think of it as collecting your inheritance!
Well Maria, what do you do when your guy's hair is longer and more luxurious than your own? =P ^_~;
For a nobleman, Al sure slouches pretty well!
"Thank you, Richter. Fare thee well."
"And yourself, dear Lady.... and don't forget to come home for dinner or your sister will kill me!!"
