I'm not the least bit interested in this game but I had to start thiss thread after reading IGN's review which is nothing short of extraordinary
"Vampire Rain was a concept that looked great on paper. A stealth game with vampires? Excellent! Unfortunately, the end result is an abomination of a videogame that doesn't even deserve a rental. Stay far away from this one--though if you get close, the enemies probably won't even see you."
4.0 Presentation
The box art is cool. I'm serious, give it a look. The game occasionally displays some creepy tendencies, as the subject matter would dictate, but once characters start talking, everything goes to hell
4.0 Graphics
Other than the pre-rendered cinematics, every other facet of this game's aesthetics look last-gen. Lots of clipping, in addition to a wide variety of other glitches.
5.0 Sound
The soundtrack isn't bad, but is repetitious. Sound effects such as booming thunder and vampire howls are nice.
2.5 Gameplay
I'm pretty sure vampires can't be killed by one lone player, which makes the single-player game kind of rough, don't you think? Enemies are completely stupid, and each level features a single path.
0 Lasting Appeal
Appeal? This game has appeal?
OVERALL
2.9 Terrible
