  • Summary: Born from the unnatural union of vampire and human, BloodRayne is blessed with the powers of a vampire but cursed with the unquenchable thirst for blood and a weakness to sunlight. BloodRayne 2 challenges the supernatural anti-heroine with her most personal battle yet as she hunts down each of her wicked siblings who are carrying on the legacy of their dead father, Kagan. They have created "The Shroud," a mysterious substance which, when released, renders the sun?s lethal rays harmless to vampires. Now only BloodRayne stands between an unsuspecting humanity and a horrifying vampire dawn. Expanding upon the distinctive features that were the hallmark of its predecessor ? fast-paced acrobatic combat and supernatural powers ? BloodRayne 2 includes new in-game dynamics such as pole combat, rail sliding and advanced melee fighting with fatality moves. Built upon a modified version of the Infernal Engine, BloodRayne 2 introduces threatening new bosses, all new environments set within a huge modern day city, a range of new supernatural powers and new motion-captured movements complete with soft-body physics.

    Whether she's harpoon-tossing enemies into a crusher on a garbage truck or a downed helicopter's whirring blades, or rail sliding 40 feet and slicing through a bunch of enemies taking shots at her, Rayne has the gaming world by the throat.

    Misses a few crucial tricks which could have given it greater mass appeal. [Mar 2006, p.97]

    If you're after a simple and enjoyable hack and slash game, with lots of violence and blood, Blood Rayne 2 will be ideal, and yes, it's worth playing, if only via a rental.

    If it weren't for the goofy controls and crazy camera I might give it an 8. I mean, Tomb Raider Legend and Anniversary are games that show well thought 3rd person control. I think the hack and slash and graphics and animation all look nice and there is a story. But, the Hack-and-Slash just feels hollow to me. AI barely a challenge. But when a boss, it basically takes no coordination at all. Just rapidly hitting the right buttons at the right time. Too much a console game, shouldnt have made it to the PC like a few other. Tomb Raider Legend and Anniversary however, do much better. And Lara Croft is a more realistic character type to feel somewhat connected to the gameplay and story. I dont connect well with playing as monsters and villians.… Expand

    You know I find it rather odd, while there was nothing spectacular about the original Bloodrayne I couldn't help but hope that one day they'd release a sequel that would rework, and improve on the problems of the first. Sadly, though, it seems the developers had other ideas. One of which was tossing the idea of using enemy weapons as your own, and just using guns that suck you dry (literally). This among many other really bad ideas made this game unplayable to me as it really just felt like a great idea lost it's soul. Not only all that but sadly they blatantly, super obviously wanted to try and lamely use sex appeal to sell this game as for some reason Rayne got alot of cosmetic surgery and now looks like a super model from hell. Not really why i liked the original, to be frank i rather liked the fact that she wasnt super hot or rather distracting in her beauty in the first game. Anyway, there was alot of things done way better in the first (which had many flaws) and rather then fix them they thought theyd change the idea comepletely and go for Tomb Raider with a bad plot and rediculously aggravating gameplay... try another vampire game this one stinks.… Expand
