Castlevania Dracula X

I have been playing the remake of Rondo of Blood on the PSP (Castlevania Dracula X Chronicles), and honestly i find it hard. Frustratingly hard. (but not as hard as ghosts and goblins for the SNES). Well, I am not really skilled in playing these kind of platform games, but I think playing and replaying have increased my skill. I just don’t really have the patience. Currently, I am still on stage 4.  I reach the boss, but die shortly after he (the boss) have just finished his “dramatic entry”. Saying this, I have finished Symphony of the Night (which is included in the game), and I think the platformers of today are a real cakewalk compared to old-school run-and-jump-and-slash/poke/ shoot games. Today, meaning , those in recent memory. I have played Aria of Sorrow, Harmony of Dissonance, and some Circle of the Moon, all GBA “Metroidvanias”, and these were relatively easy compared to the aforementioned Rondo of Blood remake.
