    I did finish the game. It was not amazing by any means, but overall I have way worse encounters. The biggest thing i took out of the expeirence was the rain dropping effects on the ground. As sad as that is.

    Not as bad as everyone thinks. I enjoyed it for the most part. You have to like stealth games for sure because if you get seen and are without a shotgun you will die! Rent it from Gamefly if you are a vampire fan.

    A really underrated game that is really fun if you sit yourself into the Mechanics and enjoy a more slow pace but tvilling game.

    The enemy are exodus scary to fight because they can kill you in one or two hits so you have to avoid them as much as possible and when you find get a gun that can kill den. You don't have enough bullets to really fight you have to pick your battles and it's    A really underrated game that is really fun if you sit yourself into the Mechanics and enjoy a more slow pace but tvilling game.

    the weed of rain falls atmospheric the sound all around you and your surround sound and a feeling that this is the most scary and longest night in your life because the tension is always there you always feel like you're just a little stiff from dying and the gameplay and story show it

    Any if you're into AA games, it's going to be a fun experience and it's a fun Japanese spin on a survival/stealth games.    … Expand

    No matter which angle you decide to look at Vampire Rain: Altered Species from, the game is bad. The graphics scream PS2. Sounds such as the death groan and boss grunts are laughable. The story is boring. The acting is hammed up in the worst way. The HUD is hideous. The levels are linear. The majority of weapons are useless. The AI is retarded. The enemies are too powerful while the bosses are too weak.

    A year after its disastrous debut on the Xbox 360, Vampire Rain is still a pain in the neck.

    I can't think of a reason why this game was made, and even less reason why it was ported. Avoid.
