Lord of shadows is awesome and very underrated game

Terry_B1557d ago

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow got mostly raving reviews and was not underrated, it also does not count since you are not playing a vampire in that game.

Part 2
You play as Dracula

nitus101557d ago

You can actually play as a vampire in Skyrim with the DLC's Dawnguard (this one), Hearthfire, and Dragonborn. The problem or should I say annoyances occur when you install all the DLC at once,

Out of all the games people mention. Legacy of Kain/ soul reaver is the most deserving of a reboot and a fresh coat of paint. How we got tomb raider rebooted first irritates me.

inFamous Festival of Blood, why does everyone seem to forget this game.

Probably cause it's not a multiplatform game, but still there should be others besides me that remember. Also, I guess because it wasn't one of the main sequels, many may have passed on it, or actually unaware of its existence.

Vampire The Masquerade - Bloodlines

Every time you mention it, someone will reinstall it.

The 7 Best Vampire Games: Embrace the Night

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.

The_Hooligan33d ago

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.

SimpleSlave33d ago (Edited 33d ago )

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.

Thats the best Vampire game ever, but enough talk, have at you!.

I've lost all hype for Bloodlines 2. It's going to be an action game.

Barlos33d ago

No Blood Omen? Even today it's one of my favourite vampire games. We could really do with a release on modern platforms.

Relientk7733d ago

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.

A Critic's Guide to Game Design By Inspiration

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.
