When I bought this game, I was skeptical. But I've since found that this game delivers. It's no masterpiece, by any means--but I wasn't expecting one. This game is good to get your ya-yas out, relieve some stress, etc. Don't buy Bloodrayne if you're looking for a complex story, stunning graphics, or innovations in the video game industry--this game is purely there for fun. Quite frankly, I've had more fun with "Bloodrayne" than I have with any other Nintendo title for quite some time.

Graphics--could be tighter. A lot of unneccesary attention is paid to breasts. Blood flows everywhere.

Movement--default controls are horrid, but you can change the control set-up and then adjust sensitivity. When the controls are customized, Bloodrayne zips around the screen like you would expect a real vampire would. Bloodrayne's combos are top-notch.

Sound effects--would have liked more music. Bloodrayne's witty banter gets old sometimes. But gun shots and dismemberment sounds are great. Strong language.

Innovation--utilizes "bullet time" ideas, but also includes heat-vision. A good idea. I like it how Bloodrayne can continue to use her guns even while she's draining somebody.

Buy it if your a fan of horror games and looking for an edgier title than most Nintendo offerings.

This is one of the best games that i have ever played. Lots of blood and gore.(Just how I like it) It may have only 3 missions but there is a ton of stuff to do in each one. Good graphics and sound FX. Dont Buy this game if you are looking for a scary game. Buy it if you are just looking for a great hack and slash.

Oh, and dont take the "Strong Languge" lightly they mean STRONG LANGUGE!!

Well, after reading the reviews on here, and the last three having horrible spelling and being the most unhelpful I've seen, I thought I'd try and shed some light on the game.

The fact is, this game was obviously made with intentions of being "eye candy" in hopes of selling lots of copies. As usual, that didn't do the company as well as say, putting more thought into the game could have done. The company that made the game, Terminal Reality, makes mostly medicore games, while this is the best of their franchises, it is still mediocre at best.

Story: I really didn't know what was going on. At first I was killing monsters and mutants, then it went on to nazis, then monsters that were possessing nazi bodies. That seemed to be the entire storyline... they didn't really put much thought into this I guess.

Graphics: Nothing amazing. They look like your typical graphics of a game from 2001/2002, but they are manageable.

Music/Sound: Good, weird sounds. Whenever you feed off a nazi or a monster, Rayne makes "mmmmm" sounds that are somewhat funny as well as distracting.

Game length: I started yesterday, and have almost beaten the game already. Estimated game play should be 5-8 hours on normal.

Controls: I don't know what people's problems are on this site with the controls. It's like they never played a video game before or something, because I got used to everything instantly. They feel almost like an FPS, though the game is played in a third person view.

It's a fun game while it lasts, and if you just want something quick to play through. Just don't pay more than $8 for it, and if anything, get the PC version instead. PC ports of games are almost always better than console ports.

Yeah, this game is a guilty pleasure. Tons of action, sex appeal, lots of gore. So whats wrong with that? Nothing, if you're in the mood for it, and this game delivers. Look, this game rocks like no other for the Gamecube and the only reason I can see not checking it out is if you can't handle the blood and language. Otherwise, get ready for a non stop slaughter fest using tons of weapons, tight controls set in a B-horror movie type setting. So the story is kind of weak, trust me, you won't care, you'll be to busy chopping up mutated creatures and Nazi's. Anyway, check it out and have some fun! Thats what these games are for!

This Game ROCKS!! I bought this game for two reasons: I like hack-em-up's, and I like women. THis game has amazing graphics, for example, some blood splatters out of a victim's neck after a "snack", and will stay in puddles on the ground. Another example of graphic supieriority is the characters. ALL of the creatures are the breast, i mean best i have ever seen. The best-done character in the game is of course, Rayne. You will see hair flowing, muscles moving in a realistic fashion, and all the feminine features are great. And the graphic function that will help the most is the different vision types. You have normal; Aura vision (shows the life force of the enemies); "Matrix" Vision, which slows everything down to pull some cool moves off; and finally binocular vision, for use with rifle to do sniper shots. The sounds is outstanding. You can just be standing there, you can here the sounds of nature, the wind, victims' footsteps, and Nazis yelling at you to do something (I don't know, i don't speak German). The controls are typical and easy to understand. One button shoots, one for jump, one for blades, one for Blood Rage (All your normal stuff at twice the speed for matrix type moves), and one for picking different gun types. If you love bloody games, go drop X dollars for this game. You won't regret it. Take it from me, a 17 y.o. with 16 years gaming experience, who has played almost any type of game made.

i thought the ps2 version was good i prefer this version mybe because i prefer GC over any other sytem but its still has everything the other versions have. all her costumes cheats work and awesome music is still there. there is no reason to thrash this version of the game becuase its on the Gamecube. ive read its missing some textures? i just finished it yesterdy and didnt notice so even if it is it shouldnt bother you. the game is fun and a good buy.

The game came in great condition. I love the game anyway because I believe it was the best of all of the BloodRayne games. The fact that this was the cheapest even from GameStop and Vintage Stock was an added bonus. I'd definitely buy something again if you had something I wanted.

BloodRayne is a game written, coded and designed to be run on the PC. I'm sorry folks, the console versions just do not live up to playing it on the PC. I'm a huge Gamecube fan but this one was murdered when it came to the console, graphics lost punch, the sound faltered and the slowdown on the Gamecube version especially was depressing. As always I've found that the port from computer to console has messed up what was once a fantastic game.
If you're up for a hack and slash, and you don't own a P4 computer with a 3D accelerator then this is for you, otherwise purchase the PC version and see the game as it was meant to be played.

Bloodrayne follows the same path as most superviolent action games, but it adds a layer of depth by giving many options like using blades or guns, choosing different views. Go stealthy or run in shooting. There are 100's of different combonations to kill bosses and just plain old grunts. Suck blood, knife them, shooting.

even if the first boss is almost impossible, i beat it on my first try the first time i ever played.

maybe a stroke of luck, but still, that one boss shouldn't bring a game's rating down so far, the plot and gameplay is still fantastic!
