IGN: Vampire Rain review - Sucks a lot more than blood

The premise of Vampire Rain seemed promising enough -- a dark, brooding city caught in a literal torrential downpour with blood-sucking undead roaming the streets; hungry, and eager to increase their ranks. The intro provided high hopes as well, featuring a pert blonde waitress on her way home late at night. Footsteps crunch atop broken glass and pavement behind her, causing our busy victim to duck into an alleyway and huddle in fear. Too late, she looks up to see an undead clinging to the wall of a nearby building. His fangs glisten, he strikes... and that's where the intro ends. That's also, unfortunately, the last enjoyable part of this horrible, horrible game.

Wow, thats the first time that IGN gives a game Zero, absolutly 0 appeal. This game must be terrible. But IGN gave Hour of Victory4 or something and much more than this while many say that was worse.

TnS6123d ago

I have to agree with IGN: the render intro of the game was very good; it is unfortunate that you can't say the same about the game itself.

That game looks horrible, worst game of 2007?

razer6123d ago

Believe the reviews, it's a total stinker..

i Shank u6123d ago

im sorry you played it man. what the hell was MS thinking sponsoring this crap

gamehead6123d ago

how would you people even try this game out. We as gamers need to make a stand to developers, no lame games, no tenchu z's no vampire rains. Played hour of victory demo and it didnt seem that bad but didnt seem that good either and the graphics did look very lame. I spotted the fakeness of this game a mile away i mean all you have to do is look at the gameplay video and it just looks terrible. I wouldnt even accept this as a ps2 game.

Hour of victory sucked bad but it was better than this game.

Vampire Rain Creators Developing Gun Loco

Canceled Square Enix game Gun Loco was made by the same company that made Vampire Rain

Siliconera: Two Linkedin profiles point to AQ Interactive, more specifically their Artoon division. Artoon handled Blinx the Time Sweeper, Blue Dragon, and umm… Vampire Rain. The Last Story was sort of an Artoon project too, but by then AQ Interactive de-branded all of their studios into one giant AQ Interactive family.

OXM UK: The Worst DLC Of All Time

OXM UK writes: "Shivering Isles. Lost & The Damned. Rock Band 2. Left 4 Dead.

There has been plenty of awesome DLC on Marketplace that has helped extend the life of your favourite games thanks to new game modes, weapons, cars or whatever else. Good DLC will rally the Xbox Live community back to the old favourites and provide the perfect excuse to blow the dust off a long neglected game.

Even so, there's been plenty of tat too. Some publishers have seen it as a cheeky excuse to try and squeeze a few extra coins out of eager gamers while other DLC has just been... bad. Plain bad. So which ranks as the worst?

5. Vampire Rain Mission Pack
Description: Extra single player missions..."

Lucreto5478d ago

Didn't tales of Vesperia have dlc for 1 million gold and to increase your level by 5 of something like that?

I think that was the worst dlc with horse armour not far behind.

ChampIDC5478d ago (Edited 5478d ago )

Yup, you're right. They did have purchasable money and levels. Sad really.

Don't think that can count as DLC, though, as it's not really content. They did count the money on The Godfather, though, so I guess it'd be fair game in this site's list.

TheDude2dot05477d ago

Why does everyone rip on Horse Armor? I liked how it made my horse smexy and whatnot.

Dmack795478d ago

This article looks very familiar...

ShabzS5478d ago

am i the only one who liked that game?

ShabzS5477d ago

damn!!... guess i'm a succer for decapitating werewolves

DreamcastFanboy5478d ago

The Godfather had DLC were you paid money to get money in the game also they had a complete everything in skate 2 DLC.

Elven65478d ago

Looking purely in terms of what you get, the Stranglehold map pack was good, it had a lot in it as well, the pricepoint may have been a bit too much though.
