    Totally subpar for what I was expecting. Yes the story is superior to last time, as is the ability to play multiple characters. That said, the movement is S L O W, you cannot swing your point of view around as easily (by clicking the trigger) as last time, and the audio is even more repetitive. Looks good, but doesn't deliver.

  1. This no-nonsense beat-'em-up based adventure will be fairly meaningless to non-believers but it's a tasty treat for Buffy fans. [PSM2]

    Stands out in the action-adventure genre by providing well devised combat and level design meshed with a great Buffy story. If you're not familiar with the TV show, you can still have a hell of a good time dusting vampires and kicking demon ass.
  3. If you’re looking for a well executed third-person game that doesn’t involve shoot-dodges or bullet-time, then Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Chaos Bleeds is worth checking out. For all Buffy worshippers, Chaos Bleeds should be on your must-play list.
