EDGE - Younger players who took their first steps into Symphony Of The Night’s hallowed, half-lit gothic corridors via the Xbox Live Arcade port of the game would be forgiven for thinking it’s a typical representation of videogames in 1997.

Vampire games are making a comeback of late, and gamers hoping this is a new trend should look back at the 7 best vampire games ever made.
What is a list? A miserable little pile of scribbles.
A Best Vampire Game list and no Bloodborne. A bold choice, indeed.
IMO, I wouldn't consider bloodborne a vampire game. Long story short, It's more about the side effects of the blood experiment and the influence of the red moon, than actually being a vampire.
Yes, Bloodborne is about Vampires. It's not just the undertones, or the imagery or the obvious parallels, it's pretty much everything and then some. Here's the thing, Bram Stoker's Dracula is also not a Vampire novel. Why? Because technically Vampires from folklore were something else.
But based on our updated view of what Vampires are, informed in one way or another by Bram Stoker's Dracula, Nosferatu The Vamprye, and many other stories, and combined with From Software's own interpretation, we can say with confidence that Bloodborne IS a Vampire story. Sure, there are other elements, but the central narrative is pretty much Vampires. Which would make it THE Vampire game. I mean, Cainhurst Castle. Anyways, that's how I see it.
But to each their and we'll agree to disagree.
Absolutely... Now, die monster! You don't belong in this thread!

No Blood Omen? Even today it's one of my favourite vampire games. We could really do with a release on modern platforms.
I really enjoyed Vampyr. The combat is a little clunky and could use some work. However, the story, characters, dialog. setting, and pretty much everything else in the game is great.
Inspiration is a big part of the game industry, but if a game is inspired by another does it cheapen the experience? CGM's Jordan Biordi tries to examine the concept.
I just got finished playing this. This is my favorite game of all time. This was my first game for ps1. Fond fond memories.
The soundtrack was just as awesome as the gameplay. Almost every castlevania after this tried to mimic it
This is the best Castlevania in my opinion up with DoS, PoR, and AoS.
Ah good memories. I remember buying this game for the PSX over the latest Tomb Raider...
My friends mocked me because of this choice. I never regretted my choice and time gave me reason. It's still the best Castlevania out there.
The best thing of this game? The soundtrack of course!
Not quite as good as the superlative Super Metroid
