While not the most ground breaking stealth title, Vampire Rain is worth a try for a stealth fan, even with its flaws.
-
Like the vampires portrayed here, this game just plain sucks.
-
37Vampire Rain: Altered Species has a lot working against it. Substandard AI, deficient visuals, exasperating difficulty and a host of other problems that make you wonder how much effort and care was actually poured into the game.
-
35A year after its disastrous debut on the Xbox 360, Vampire Rain is still a pain in the neck.
-
A neat idea with some of the worst execution I've seen on the PlayStation 3. The title has an incoherent story, bad graphics, bad voice acting, bad level design, extremely linear gameplay for a stealth title, and a level of difficulty that seems more dumb than difficult.
-
35Altered Species is filled with all kinds of problems, from overpowered and brainless fiends to ill-conceived levels. Let's just hope these vampires stop haunting us.
-
30No matter which angle you decide to look at Vampire Rain: Altered Species from, the game is bad. The graphics scream PS2. Sounds such as the death groan and boss grunts are laughable. The story is boring. The acting is hammed up in the worst way. The HUD is hideous. The levels are linear. The majority of weapons are useless. The AI is retarded. The enemies are too powerful while the bosses are too weak.
-
30The whole thrill of stealth action is the ability to outsmart your opponent. So what does Vampire Rain do? It gives you singular, trial and error paths that has about as much variety as a prison meal.
-
30The PS3 version fares no better than last year's abysmal 360 release.
-
26Often people complain about the expensive cost of the videogames, but paying 70 € for a great title don't seem to be excessive for anybody. However Vampire Rain costs 60€, which is offensive if you look at its quality. If after reading this review you continue thinking that Altered Species deserves an opportunity don't complain that we didn´t advise you… A title not only to forget, but also to avoid.
-
25I can't think of a reason why this game was made, and even less reason why it was ported. Avoid.
-
Vampire Rain: Altered Species is truly a terrible game, offering horrendous gameplay, atrocious AI, and an overall unpleasant experience.
-
20The concept is solid on paper: a stealth action romp through the urban jungle as you battle hordes of undead night stalkers. There's also a variety of weapons and interesting features, like being able to see through the enemies' eyes. Unfortunately, none of these elements are fun or well executed.
-
16Everything about this game sucks.
-
0It's like the developers didn't even play the games they were blatantly ripping off.

DavidS0This is nonsensical indulgent garbage. I guess if you really want to help the economy go ahead and pick this one up. I'd rather watch paint dry.
