Experiencing Castlevania mania could become a chronic side-effect of owning a PSP, with the ESRB's online ratings database now listing Castlevania Chronicles for the handheld system and the PS3. While Sony hasn't gotten back to us about it yet, its appearance on both platforms implies an upcoming release on the PlayStation Network, not too long after the service whipped out Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. If you enjoyed androgyny poster boy/girl Alucard's romp through an upside-down castle, you might find Simon Belmont's tussle with Dracula to be a bit... backwards. Castlevania Chronicles doesn't feature the CastleTroid level design that's become prominent in modern vampire-vanquishing adventures and instead offers levels in a linear fashion. Of course, that makes it an excellent trial run for our October assault on the dark lord's indestructible house in Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles.
