Blood Rayne 2 review:
3 stars (Birthday Present) - Took this Blood Rain Two game over to Carol's house this weekend, as it was Bradley's 13th birthday. Lots of promises has to be made before it was all okayed, no drinking, no negativity, I had to be the "nice guy" even around her new boyfriend, but at least I got spend the day with my son.



I think he liked the game. I watched him play it for a while. I dunno, I never liked birthday parties, even when I was a kid. I just sort of sat in the corner, balancing those little paper plates with the art-deco "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" scrawl and pushing the icing and cake around with a plastic fork.



The game seems to concern a young woman running around and killing various monsters and Nazis. I sat on the couch behind Brad (he's "Brad" now, not Bradley, and when did this happen and how long've I been calling him Bradley when he was Brad?) and tried to get him to fill me in. He said she's a half-vampire and she hates Nazis. That's about all I got out of him



Here is the video game I would like to play: it is me and Bradley, when he was eight. We sit on by the side of a river and fish and watch stream ripple and the bobbers float and we don't catch any fish so we don't have to pull the hook out of that writhing, flopping, gasping dumb thing's mouth, and Bradley doesn't cry, and I don't get mad and worry he's becoming weak and the minivan doesn't stink of fish for two wees afterwards and Carol brings up it everytime we get into the van together "Phewee, it smells like FISH in here," as if I don't smell it, as if she doesn't know exactly what she's doing when she brings it up, and Bradley and I just sit there for a long time, until things are okay.



Regardless, I'm pretty sure I could beat up Carol's new boyfriend. Or at least lift more over my head than he could.
4 stars (MagnĂ#fico) - Al principio pensĂ# que este juego era aburrido o que no era digno de ser el sucesor del Blood Rayne, pero despuĂ#s de endentrarme en el juego y descubrir todas las opciones que tiene y como varĂ#a solamente dije:Wooooooooooow!!!. DespuĂ#s de destruir la torre el juego se pone de verdad bastante bueno, empiezas a descubrir poderes mucho más potentes y hermosos que los que tienes a esa altura, comienzan a salir criaturas nuevas mucho más sorprendentes y peligrosas. Realmente este es un buen juego, no es un Prince Of Persia pero creo que es el que más se le acerca. ComprĂ#nlo que sin duda es un juego digno a engrosar cualquier colecciĂ#n
5 stars (Hail to the real video game babe - BloodRayne) - The predecessor still ranks as one of my all-time favourite video games, so I could not wait to get my hands on part 2 of Majesco's gory vampire saga (okay: half-vampire). And the sequel is even better than I expected. The elements that made "BloodRayne" such a hit are still there: Extremely fast-paced action, a good dose of black humour and an exceptionally visceral gameplay.



After all, it's still running around and chopping everybody up who comes in Rayne's way, but that dhampir lady definitely has got more style than all other female game protagonists combined. Using Rayne's wristblades is still as much fun as it was in part 1; besides, she delivers kicks and handles some awesome anti-vampire guns that feed on blood just as she does. For "BloodRayne 2", she has also learned to do some amazing acrobatics, swinging on horizontal and vertical poles and sliding down handrails and ropes. Just like in "BloodRayne", she can also employ her harpoon and thus hurl her enemies in any direction she likes.



The graphics are also amazing - they may not be a match for Half-Life 2 or Doom 3, but hey, who cares? What you get here are beautifully detailed levels with lots of stuff you can smash and break any way you like (thanks to ragdoll physics engine), and the heroine looks better than ever. The a.i. is not that good, however. Enemies just keep running at you and seldom take the trouble of fleeing or taking cover. In contrast to part 1, "BloodRayne 2" has a real multitude of controls one has to take care of, but they can be mastered quickly, and they are also very precise.



Otherwise, it's the usual mayhem: Feast on the one guy, decapitate the other and shed as much blood as possible. While feeding on a victim, Rayne can employ three different fatalities that should satisfy even the most hard-boiled gamer. Although the violence has got a somewhat cartoon-like style to it, I definitely would only recommend it to mature players.



To sum up, I would say that "BloodRayne 2" is what a modern 3D action game should be like: fast, violent, varied, stylish. Highly recommended for all those out there looking for a top-notch gaming experience.
