One of the best horror games on DC! Classic!

Seriously Hard. If you get pwned a lot, don't worry, it's part of the fun. You basically have three health bars, one for health, one for stamina, and one for fear. If any of them gets too low, you die- which makes sense in a nightmare world that literally is an amusement park based on several horror films- you must fight through all of them- cheat if you can, because you'll need it. Very rewarding when you beat even one stage- if you don't give up easily and LOVE in-your-face pop-up horror, this is the game for YOU!

GOOD GAME, IF YOUR PATIENT!!

This game is original and fun to play. But the biggest complaint on here is that the traps are unavoidable, die to fast. Well if that's the only complaint you have, then get a GameShark, then you won't die! This game is fun in my opinion I had laughs and fun. It's not the best game I've played, but for the dreamcast it'll do. I recommend this game to you if your patient and you don't get frustrated every time you die!

Don't listen to the one star givers

I must say, that anyone who has given this game one star is stupid. This game was fun on many levels. It had survival horror, comedy, and excitement. There was bad voice acting, but on purpose to add to the B Horror movie surroundings and plot. The graphics were excellent, except for the fact that the mouths don't move. The soundtrack is great, sadly.......There is no soundtrack for sale. And, lastly, I want to say that this game is given 5 stars only because there is not an option for anything higher. DO NOT listen to these brainless and psychotic people who have no taste what-so-ever. If the game sucked so much, than they wouldn't be porting it on the XBOX.

SCARY AS HELL!!!!! Need it for XBOX or PS2

IM ACTUALLY THINKING ABOUT GETTING A NEW DREAMCAST BECAUSE HAVING THE GAME AND NOT BEING ABLE TO PLAY IT IS A TOTAL WASTE, I WISH THAT THE COMPANY AND THE DEVELOPERS COULD TAKE IT OUT FOR XBOX OR PS2, TRUST ME IF YOU LIKE, RESIDENT EVIL, FATAL FRAME, SILENT HILL, CLOCK TOWER, OR THE NEW THE HAUNTING, YOU WONT BE DISSAPOINTED BY THIS ONE, IT'S HARD, FUN AND IT WILL MAKE YOU JUMP OUT OF YOUR SEAT ALMOST EVERY 2 MINUTES. FOR ME IS ONE OF THE BEST GAMES OF THIS GENRE.

This game is good, play it if you get a chance

I admit this game can be a little frustrating at first.. but it gets really good, you may not be able to get past the first level until you sit down and actually set ur mind to the game. honestly id say that the first level is the hardest, i couldnt beat it myself until i sat down and actually played instead if getting frustraited and giving up.. later on you will get more money and be able to afford upgrade operations and adrenaline.
in this game you will be going through the cinema zone having to follow where traps are with the horror monitor and following your four senses(sight, smell, hearing, and sixth sense) the sixth sense senses battles and items, when a battle it near it will blink with a blue shadow thing or something.. but blue means battle and when it stays green there are items.. some levels have item sensors.. i think just in the first two levels. The first boss is basically the hardest one you will encounter. first you have to escape from his practice room because he is invincable then you have to run through a maze and try to avoid him, if you get in any battles with him, escape. finally you will come to a room where you see one of your friends and a gas leak will be going on.. banballow shows up and you can finally kill him. dont get too excited though, after you beat him you will go up the stairs and have to fight a GIANT banballow which is invincable.. you have to jump around these blocks and try to avoid his attacks. you will come to a fork in the path.. turn off to the right path to come up to a control room and you have to kill the guy running banballow (not hard) then you have to get an id card from the same room. finally you can leave and go back to the fork and go to the goal. you must stop before the goal area and use the id card, the gate will open then you can leave. The only other thing of to say is that the game is good, and the fighting controlls are easy. you just press y in a series of three to make a combination, and when you get some long range weapons you must press the right trigger to use them. Its a good game if you just figure it out.. i got the game for christmas in 2003 and i gave up on it for a long time and just beat it now in june, once i really started playing it, it seemed a hell of alot easier and more fun.. you run into a bunch of crazy adventures.. anyone who rated this game a one is just stupid and probably never got through the first level.. if i rated this game when i first got it, i probably would have been one of those. If anyone needs any help with there game, email me at bopropanop_bopropanop@hotmail.com again this is a really great game and is kind of challenging.. personally i think the graphics could have been a hell of alot better.. but dont go by reviews.. buy the game and see for yourself. also try buying from vglq.com they dont have as wide a selection as amazon but they are alot cheaper for the most part.

GREAT IDEAS MEAN NOTHING WITHOUT GREAT EXECUTION

A B-movie horror-film producer puts up a million dollars to anyone who can survive a virtual house of horrors . But great ideas mean nothing without great execution and that's exactly what's happened here. Yes, Illbleed's graphics are Dreamcast quality and sure there are monsters all over the place, lots of areas to traverse and a good selection of weapons to use Yes, we even admire the fact that the game doesn't take itself too seriously (at all.) But in the end, it just isn't much fun. The best analogy I can offer here is that Illbleed is a lot like a backstage party with Ru Paul; all of the elements appear to be in place, but it's just not adding up to a good time. As bad as Blue Stinger was (also developed Illbleed is ten times worse My god, how do I escape this horrible nightmare?" will be a question asked by Illbleed players everywhere. The game offers everything except the ability to take itself back to the store

One of the best games, ever!!!

This game is awsome, it is different, original, and deffinately a survival horror game. I don't like to consider the "levels" levels, I call them stories. Because each movie you see, or story, has it's own special story. Each story is too long and different to be considered a level. Anyway buy this game it is the one of the best.

Crazy and bloodthirsty

Seems like everybody has it in for poor old Illbleed. Well, I don't think its all that bad. In fact I thought it was pretty good. I have only recently tracked down a copy, and it looks a bit dated now (especially the cut scenes), but that doesn't mean it's not fun. The game's premise is original to say the least. Whereas most survival horror games try and plunge you into a realistic world, here its all a fake, as the levels are all attractions in a horror theme park, which the character you play is exploring in search of her missing friends. The gameplay involves trying to make your way through each of the themed levels without dying, and, as traps and scares await you at every corner, this is no easy task. Actually its more than every corner, sometimes there's a trap every two or three steps you take! Luckily the player has access to a "horror monitor" which enables you to survey the area around you for hints on possible traps. Its hard to explain how this works, but in practise it becomes quite clear. The 5 or so levels are cleverly designed, and some of the ideas here may well be the weirdest things you have ever encountered in a video game. One level is set in a haunted department store where you will encounter an evil cake, fight reanimated lamb chops on a giant grill pan and play jump-rope with barbed wire. Another is set in a lumber-mill, during which at one point you get turned into a live wooden puppet. I can't even begin to talk about the "Toy Story" inspired level in which you play a toy who must visit Toy Hell to rescue his beloved toy girlfriend... Its all done with a sense of humour, and although there are lots of gory and sickening sights on display ( whoever designed the first level boss must be pretty warped), it is designed to make you laugh. The traps are nearly all absurd, and you'll be trying to avoid attacks from such things as oven-ready chickens, giant Crayolas and rotten toilets to name a few. The drawbacks? Well, the controls are not very well implemented, especially during combat. Save points are few, and some parts of each level are extremely difficult. But stick with it. This is a hugely entertaining game, unlike any other that I have played. If you find one still for sale, get it. You'll soon be entering a freaky world unlike any other.

I absolutely love survival horror games & the Sega Dreamcast. So you'd think that there would be a pretty good chance I'd like ILLBLEED huh? Well, there was, until I played it.

Horrible controls hinder this offering. It is too bad really as this game had an interesting premise and could've been something.

Ah, what I am worried about... it isn't like any of you people who don't already own it will be able to track it down (or order it at this site) anymore anyway.

But for those that try... you've been warned.

dont waste your money or your time

I can honestly say that this is the worst game i have ever played. I got this used for six bucks and it totally wasnt worth the money. I suggest that everybody just stick to Resident Evil and Silent Hill for your survival horror needs because this game will just annoy you. The only reason i gave it one star is because the graphics arent a total loss.
