I did try to get into this game, however, with sloppy controls and very cut and dry graphics i really thought it should have been better in my view. This game plays to much like Tomb Raider (control wise) and all the battles are either jerky or really bad. I would only get this game if your a huge fan of the Tomb Raider games (which i am not). Rent it, before you buy it.

A game

I was one of the lucky ones..I didn't have to shell out the money to try this one since my girlfriend bought it for me for Christmas...I wouldn't have gotten it...not without trying it out first. The game. It's not terrible. There are certainly worse games out there, because it definitely has it's moments. I think the most disappointing features of this game are with the graphics, which are very inconsistent. Some areas are done well enough, others seem like they were an afterthought. Rayne herself was renedered beautifully..but some of her movements are very choppy and don't flow together. The exception to this is when you are in Blood Rage..which when done at times when you are hacking countless enemies has some cool effects. Besides the graphics another problem is the forced sexuality..namely close ups of breasts jigglying oddly and at odd times...sometimes seemingly for no reason.

this game is a definite try before your buy.

I imagined this game to be Kain from Blood Omen transported to MOH:FrontLine, and the gameplay isnt far from it, though its a bit grosser(sexier?) to watch Bloodrayne grind on her victims as she drinks their blood than it is to watch Kain. However, while MOH:Frontline and Blood Omen (I & II) all offered good storylines, Bloodrayne is ridiculously lacking in that capacity: Agent Bloodrayne must go after her vampire rapist father who is in league with Nazis in 1938 after having watched her mentor get eaten by a huge parasite that was created by a nazi in cahoots with a Cajun Witch in Louisiana (psssssssss.......I think they stole this plot from a Stephen Seagal flick).

The graphics varie greatly from part to part. Bloodrayne herself is rendered beautifully, but many of the enemies look like they stepped out of a fps from ps1. Also the difficulty varies alot from place to place which can be annoying, the first boss is pretty difficult, but then you get a bunch of cake opponents to fight for a pretty long time. I was also dissapointed that the gameplay does not really involve stealth at all seeing as how your supposed to be an AGENT INFILTRATING
Nazi Compounds and such. However, this game has so many problems that the fact that Nazis wait dumbly in their rooms while a crazy rambo inspired vampiress goes on a loud killing spree is the least of a gamers worries.

If playing as a hot chick that slurps blood is your thing then I recommend this game. If vampires are your thing then get Blood Omen II, or Soul Reaver II. If playing as a hot chick is your thing get Drakan: The Ancient gates, or wait for the new Tomb Raider. If fighting Nazis is your thing get MOH:front Line.

verdict: wasted money

Finally a butt kickin' chick vampire!

So I just got this game and so far I am very excited about it. As a girl into gore, it is hard to find an action game like this where you get to play a bad a** chick.
Overall, the beginning is good. I like her attitude and some of her one-liners are cute, though a tad repetitive. Perhaps it is my own lack of coordination, but I am thus far finding it hard to control her; mostly, I find it hard to fight, suck blood, defend myself, and make the camera go in the right way all at the same time.
I like the graphics and the game is addictive. I think it will be more fun once I gain better control over the actions. Though, there is an option in the setup in which you can simplify the actions and buttons.. for the less capable or coordinated players. Good game. Great action.

wow this...!

I am a pretty big gamer. So i would like to think i am not blowing smoke but this game just did not cut it. Mabey 2 or 3 years ago this game would be cool but for a PS2 game the graphics where so so and the game flow... You would be better off spending your money somewhere else.

'' ONE GREAT BLOODSUCKER GAME '' ! !

SINCE I AM NOT INTO ANY TYPE OF SPY/ESPIONAGE GAMES I PICKED UP THIS GAME DUE TO IT BEING A VAMPIRE BASED GAME.AND BOY WAS I GLAD I DID ! YOU GET TO BATTLE ZOMBIES , ALL SORTS OF NASTY MUTATIONS , AND LOTS OF NAZIS .. PLUS THE FACT THAT YOU GAIN SPECIAL VAMPIRIC ABILITES , AND A WIDE ASSORTMENT OF WEAPONS TO USE AT YOUR DISCRETION MAKES IT SURE TO PLEASE ALL LOVERS OF SPY GAMES.. .BUT YOU DON'T REALLY NEED TO USE YOUR WEAPONS A LOT , UNLESS YOU ARE SURROUNDED BY SOLDIERS SHOOTING AT YOU . THE FACT THAT YOU CAN FEED ON THEM TO REPLENISH YOUR HEALTH IS A BIG PLUS , AS WELL AS USING A SOLDIER AS A HUMAN SHIELD WHEN BEING PEPPERED WITH BULLETS FROM ALL SIDES. A NICE ADDED TOUCH , IS RAYNE'S BLADES- WHICH SHE USES AS A LETHAL KILLING METHOD . AND IT FILLS YOUR BLOODRAGE METER , SO YOU CAN GO INTO BLOODRAGE AND REALLY KICK...!!THE BOSSES CAN BE HARD AT TIMES , BUT IF YOU USE YOUR SPECIAL ABILITIES , THEY WONT STAND A CHANCE..RAYNE IS HERE TO SLAY,FEED , AND NOT TAKING ANY PRISONERS !! BUT MAYBE JUST SNACKING ON A FEW .. AND TO SHOW YOU THAT YOU SHOULDN'T MESS WITH A VAMPIRE ,WHO TAKES [nothing] FROM ANYONE ! SO GET IT TODAY AND HAVE FUN !!

Hard to see what the excitement is about. The graphics are nothing special. The game is rather shallow P>The controls are rather easy to pick up. You can use a variety of different views, such as aura view (looks similar to infrared), dilated perception (slow motion), and extended vision (zoom). Not much skill involved with the combat; it is more or less hack and slash.

The theme of the game is raw violence combined with sensuality. I'm sure this alone is what is drawing most of the positive remarks.

Boring, repetitious game

This game, in my mind, looked great. When I bought it, it looked like a Resident-Evil type of game featuring a vampire. Well, I was wrong. It is a boring game. There isn't too much excitement, aside from the beginning of the game. It's all the same thing, over and over. Kill kill, shoot shoot, kill shoot kill. Not really that much fun, in my opinion.
If you want a scary, fun, intelligent game, try Resident Evil. Any of the Resident Evils.

Bloodrayne....

I'll admit, I hadn't read anything prior to getting the game so I didn't know very much about Bloodrayne. Something about a Vampire in the 30s going up against Nazis just seemed a lil much to me yet, because I love Vampire stuff, I decided to get the game and, boy, am I glad I did. Terminal Reality somehow pulled it off. The game is an absolute blast to play. It's a gory 3rd-person action-adventure much in the vein of Blade, Shadowman, and Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Yet, it has a style all its' own. You start out in the backwaters of Louisiana and end up facing the Nazi. The only gripes I had with the game were with the control at the beginning of the game(which after I got used to, worked out just fine in playing the game),and that the levels were somewhat repetitive. But, those were only minor gripes. Otherwise, Bloodrayne is a brilliant game. One I heartily recommend.

warning if you have heart trouble turn back now

if you are looking for a good crhistian game this is not your game but if you are looking for an unrelenting bloodbath and hours and hours of fun then this is the perfect game for you. the controls are sorta heard to get used to but once you get started its very hard to put down the graphics are great and the cut scenes are crazy. this is an all around great game.
