Bigs 2, The
Stars indicate the most critically-acclaimed games. |
The legend has existed for centuries. Very few have survived to tell their account of terror. But we know, the Vampire is real. Grab a friend and the GunCon2 and experience the shoot'em up action. Namco puts you in the role of the vampire hunter. Includes a special training mode, an adventure mode, and other hidden features. [Namco]

GameSpot
Unquestionably the best-looking light-gun game ever released, as well as a game that will seem instantly familiar to "House of the Dead" fans while still pushing their skills.

GameZone
If you really like light-shooters and are looking for something different than a modern setting, you will probably find the game a breath of fresh air.

GameSpy
If you're a fan of shooters and have a predilection for Ed Wood then this game has your name written all over it.
75
GameShark
With the reload option assigned to the bottom button, you can constantly reload as you shoot without moving the gun from the screen. This adds a whole new level of sweetness to the boss battles.

IGN
You can't help but feel that Vampire Night is more of a step back in the genre as far as gameplay is concerned.
72
TotalGames.net
Ultimately, Vampire Night lacks the sparkle that the best examples of this genre display. It looks good, sounds okay (apart from some cheesy voice-acting) and whilst it lasts (not very long as it happens) it is quite entertaining.

Electric Playground
Vampire Night isn't the best light-gun game out there, but it's still a decent game and certainly the best looking light-gun shooter on any system.

GamePro
Wants to be the PlayStation 2’s "House of the Dead," but it lacks creativity and spooky bite.
65
Game Informer
It's generic in just about every way, from cheesy dialogue to predictable enemies. [Dec 2001, p.95]

Thunderbolt
There are a few memorable experiences to be found in this game, but in the end, this is sadly an average game.

All Game Guide
A solid, enjoyable romp Vampire Night may be, but it adheres strictly to the same trite concepts we've seen recycled so many times before.

PSX Nation
I'd like a more memorable and challenging shooter for my hard-earned dough. Call me crazy.

GMR Magazine
Average but suitable shooter with weird characters. [May 2004, p.95]
58
XenGamers
Too short and on the easy side.

Official U.S. Playstation Magazine
Straightforward, short, yet ultimately fun arcade port. [Jan 2002, p.142]

Yahoo! Games
It is ironic that Vampire Night should be both toothless and bloodless.
42
Gaming Age
As bland as they come. The cheesy plot and acting come with gun game territory but the horrendous gameplay doesn’t do much to make this game a keeper.

Play Magazine
The graphics, though slick, lack the sort of interest I expected and are actually quite bland. [Feb 2002, p.62]
