	Castlevania: Symphony of the Night has two main versions that are played, the original PlayStation release and the Xbox 360 release. The Xbox 360 version has many notable improvements including far less game slowdown, at the cost of removing the ending theme, not being able to display the picture in 240p for display on a CRT, and minor changes throughout. The recommended version is the Xbox 360 release, but to experience it as intended, the original PlayStation version is a must.

	This wiki is first and foremost a resource to give information on the best way to play games. Despite the fact that this wiki constantly states the "best" way to play a game, it does so via the (dubious, but inevitable) invisible authority of the gaming community at large, and simply presents this information from a neutral point of view. If there is a split, it is the responsibility of the wiki to list both setups as long as there is reason to believe that both setups are valid as to the best way to play a game.

			It is important to note that this wiki does not offer any strategies on playing games. When the wiki says "best way to play" it is simply for the setup, not any commentary on gameplay. For more info check [[What is "best" anyway?]]
