Vampire: Bloodlines Reviews

Another pair of reviews have been posted for Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines, and they’re both positive. The first is at 3DAvenue with an overall score of 85/100:

The PC has not had any shortage of FPS games in recent times, in fact it seems to be that time again where many FPS titles see their latest series additions, however out of all the recent releases, none seem to have the unique appeal that Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines has. Not only is the subject of vampires pretty unique itself, the way the game executes seperates it from the pack in some regards. If you were disappointed with the recent FPS titles and their somewhat lackluster plot and linear storylines, then you will probably find Bloodlines to be a refreshing change, however on the other hand, a few technical and design issues let it down, preventing it from becoming an absolute must have. If you can look past the collection of minor annoyances, Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines will provide an all round gameplay experience rivaling that of practically any FPS title to date.

And the second is at Gamezilla with a conclusion of “Recommended – Buy”:

Vampire’s largest flaws are in its graphics. While developed with the Half-Life 2 engine, many of the character models can look very poor in some of the more strangely lit locales in the game. Additionally, there’s very little in the way of actual freedom to move through the city, as at all times you’re essentially stuck in four different zones that are mere postage stamps compared to other titles. Still, with the chance to play a myriad of characters in many different ways, this is my favorite RPG of the year.
