...This game has THE best graphics, and the CG movie graphics are even better than those of the Final Fantasy series. The only real problem with this game is the controlls, but they're easy to learn. Because of people constantly comparing this game to Resident Evil, it doesn't get a fair chance. It's really a great game, and if you like the movie, you'll love this...
Noooooooooooooooo!

What have they done to you D!? This game had so much potential. Good graphics, great story, and a huge fan base. But they made the game slow, excessively difficult, and bland. I tried, I actually TRIED to like this game, but it was so hard to feign interest in it for more than an hour. I loved the movies, but this is a travesty!
Go Buy the Legacy of Kain series instead
Get it for the nostaligia...

I bought this game used because I liked the movie, and i thought, what the hey, the game will probably be good too. It does deliver on nostalgia, but it is not a fun game to play. I wanted to like this game, but it just has so many flaws.
First, and foremost, the movement system. Pushing up on the arrow pad makes you go forward, no matter which way you're facing. This took me forever to get used to, and even then i never entirely got the hang of it. It makes fighting enemies slow and difficult. Would it have been that hard to make the movement normal and use the analog stick?!
Sigh...another complaint is that the game is short, the puzzles are irritating and boring, and you never leave this one building. That's right, the entire game takes place in the same castle! Which inevitably means that much of the game is comprised of hideous backtracking, over and over again, to find a cardkey and open a door.
I don't know if Im just biased because I'm used to playing turn-based RPGs, but I found this game incredibly unenjoyable. Its only redeeming quality is that Vampire Hunter D is its subject matter.... So, my advice is to only buy this if your a fan of Vampire Hunter D, and if you think you can stand it.
