Castlevania: Lament of Innocence is a beautiful amalgamation of two previous games in the series Symphony of the Night and Legacy of Darkness. The power of the Playstation 2 has been harnessed and put to good use in creating a rich atmosphere of action and deadly adventure. Leon Belmont (referred from now on as Whip Guy) will earn moves and skills that will put paid the 3D environment Konami has chosen for this new addition to the Castlevania series.
In this guide, youll find everything you need to end your lamenting. From the detailed walkthrough, to a full explanation of characters, secrets and more, plus a handy one-stop Q and A section, this is the most complete online resource around. But enough talk, lets start killing things.

Duplicator Glitch
Theres a way to duplicate your items. Enter the castle and head to the door that leads to the Save Room and the room to the other 5 stages. In the hallway near the Save Room, look on the
carpet for a green spot of color.
Go stand on it, facing the window and open up your subscreen and go to your item list. By scrolling through your item list each item mysteriously increases by one.

Duplicator Glitch #2

The hallway outside the VI Stone room allows items to be duplicated through the start menu (see Duplicator Glitch #2).
