Standard side scroller with the Daywalker

Blade for the GameBoy Color is yet another 2-D basic side scroller which would be practically generic were it not for the fact of the Blade license. Playing as Blade, you have control over a very small array of weaponry, and you run from side to side taking on a horde of vampires and beasts; all of which amounts to at least 45 minutes of gameplay. There's no replay value to Blade, and the bosses are easy to beat. The graphics are colorful and are standard GBC graphics, while the control is easy to get the hang of. This might be worth a rental at best for fans of Blade, but besides that this one belongs on the shelves.

Blade on GBC

one of the worst games to ever come to consle was by far Blade on the playstation, but fortunate for all of the people who disliked the original version, Activision remade it and ported to the GBC. Although it is better, it did suffer from some problems that really hurt the experiance as a whole, so here you go my review on Blade.

Story: Blade, a vampire hunter who is half human and half vampire, all of their strenghts, but none of their weaknesses... except for the thirst. These powers come to him only from the terrible loss of his mother, who was bitten by a vampire before her death and birth of her son, Blade. Blade has now dedicated his life to the investigation of the vampire who bit and killed his mother, after so many years he has found him, Deacon Frost. Unfortunatly, before he can bring vengence upon Frost, a new clan has appeared wearing a mysterious tattoo, they have been deemed the New Bloods, a group of vampires recently turn by the bite.

Graphics: the graphics are really colorful, but are also very bland, the don't hold up to the graphical level that the GBC has to offer.

sound: mostly a loud rock soundtrack that can really get on your nerves because they are all just so loud and annoying. The weapons sound decent, and the sound of your fist crushing a blood-thirsty vampire's face in isn't as satisfying as it should be.

Gameplay: varied but still very lacking. there ae three different styles of play, sword fighting, kung-fu, and gun battles. as unfortunate as it is, they are all just so frustratingly hard that you can't enjoy them. If I had to choose, the gunslinging is the best. The worst thing is that all you do is press the same button the entire time, my thumb is killing me!

My conclusion is that if you do like the Blade games you should give it a go, but I would think twice if you're looking for a solid game to keep you going, I'm not saying its bad, but by no means am I saying its good.

Great find

I always look for games that are just fun to play. This was one of those games. I really liked the movie and since then have become a big Blade fan. This game was cool in that it followed the movie pretty well and also was new. I thought it was a good title for any game boy owner. It isn't hard to learn. The game moves kind of fast because it isn't too difficult, but the fact that it's Blade alone makes it all worth it. Buy this game! It's fun!

Too friggin' short!!

Blade is a game with nice graphics and control and the battles with bosses are cool (you get to block and slash with a sword) and the concept and gameplay is quite original, complete with attribute upgrades. The only problem with that game is it's too short. It took me like 45 minutes to beat it. But, the game has quite some replay value so it won't be a waste of money at all, it is so well done.

this game is ok

This game is very fun when you first play it but it gets boring fast! The graphics are good and there are many ways to kill your opponet. This game is pretty much the same the whole game there are alot of badguys and the bosses are almost impossible.The worst thing about this game is once you beat a level the next levels are exactly the same!

Blade the coolest action packed game ever
