Mar 24, 2015Not much to say besides this game is PHENOMENAL! Its not a Dark Souls game but its damn near close and the new scenery is awesome.......only part that sucks is no blocking but it adds more challenge to dodging and rolling! End of rant.....worth every single penny and then some!

Mar 24, 2015One of the best games of this generation .If you thinks videogames are no more whay they used to be . Well guess what . blood
Borne will remind you why play videogames is not for everyone
The gameplay . Bosses . Sound and direction is superb. They need to fix a little bit frame rate and loading screen and it will be a masterpiece -

Mar 24, 2015This is a phenomenal game. Its visuals far surpass any of the souls games, as well as the gameplay. Rather than hiding behind a shield for hours on end, the combat is extremely fast-paced and dynamic. The atmosphere throughout the game says consistent even through various sceneries. Its an absolute must-buy for every ps4 owner.

Mar 24, 2015"Where Dark Souls is a heavily armored battle of creatures slugging away at one another, Bloodborne is a twitchy, naked knife fight to the death." IGN
This describes Bloodborne to a T. This intricate dance of ducking, rolling, and sidestepping to slay your enemies with a well timed execution rewards you in a shower of satisfying blood. -

Mar 24, 2015Game Of the Year already!?!? I cannot stress this enough, if you do not play Bloodborne you are missing history not in the making but already made. Please find an excuse/ lie/legit reason/ to have your love ones get you this game now if you can't afford it. To the gamers with 60$ we already have it and if you don't put frozen thin sliced bologna in your PS4 and play that.

Mar 24, 2015The first must have of this generation. An amazing game that you wont be able to put down once you start. Fast, exciting gameplay. Thrills and excitement. Think you're safe? Sorry, there's something that wants to kill you behind that box.
Secret passageways, awesome bosses, awesome graphics, awesome gameplay. The first MUST HAVE on the ps4 -

Mar 24, 2015Beautiful game, coming by From Software, I expected something like. Great Soundtrack and Scenery, Immersion and everything good can define this game, for sure a must buy.
-
Mar 24, 2015Superb Game.
Nothing comes close to this.
A Master Piece and a reference for all developers for all future Projects.
Highly Recommended and the ONLY game that justifies the purchase of a PS4.
Even if you're not in the Souls Series game, you owe it to yourself to experience Bloodborne.
10 / 10 -
Mar 24, 2015A must buy for any souls fan out there. the game is amazing in every aspect. and as usual for a from software game it has a great replay value. is not surprise that this is the best game on ps4. i give it a 9/10 and it not reaches the 10 just for the frame drop and the loading time. im just having the best fun playing this game, something that didnt happen in all 2014.
-
Mar 24, 2015If your a Souls player then you definitely need to play this game, i recommend it and if you dont have a PS4 go out and buy one cuz your missing out on alot!
-
Mar 24, 2015Bloodborne is amazing and as close to perfection as you can get. Clearly the 0 reviews on this site are designed to bring the game score down. No game is worthy unless it's completely broken. Don't believe the hate and pick this up if you have a PS4!
-
Mar 24, 2015This is easily one of my favorite games of all time and the best of the soul series being a souls veteran my self with over 1500 on dark souls 500 on demon souls and 300 onn dark souls 2 i think that this one is my favorite from all the "souls" games

Mar 24, 2015Always was afraid to try hard games like Dark Souls and such. But with Bloodborne I found myself suck in to the world. It is hard, but it does give you a chance with its fast attack mechanics in all. Gave it a 8 and not a 9 because of some minor glitches, think they should of gone more in depth with the origins and story but overall great game.

Mar 24, 2015This game is just amazing. The atmosphere the action part, soundtrack i cant find anything that could be bad i played 10 hours with the 1.0.1 and the loading time is around 10-17 sec that is not that much. Look forward to see the covenants.
-
Mar 24, 2015Already died 20 times and 5 of them with the first boss; cursing at him for all the health i loos when I try to to change blood for silver bullets and fail to recover that blood. Loving this game.
-
Mar 24, 2015Do you like the Souls games? Buy this immediately. If you don't know the Souls series then ask yourself, do you fancy the idea of being ravaged by a pack of tomahawk-wielding silverback gorillas? If so, buy this game.

Mar 24, 2015I couldn't sleep for days. I wasn't sure about Bloodborne after The Order 1886's disappointment. But I gave Bloodborne and Sony last chance to keep my PS4 in the gaming room and it saved me. This game, Bloodborne, is money worth and an exclusive of high quality gameplay. Arigatou gozaimasu

Mar 24, 2015So satisfying and rewarding, totally recommended to anyone, regardless of whether you like Dark Souls or not, in fact if you didn't like Dark Souls for the combat then this negates that with it being faster and more aggressive so even non-DS fans might love it.

Mar 24, 2015Best game Ever. On PS4 only.
Better than Dark Souls. A fantastic experience.
Level Design is unbelievable.
Gameplay is so far better than Dark souls, more action.
Thanks Sony, Thanks From Software for this masterpiece. -
Mar 24, 2015best next gen game so far 20 hours in nowhere near complete anyone giving it low scores seem to be people who have not played the game and xbox one or pc gamers who want it on their platform lol
-

-
Mar 24, 2015It's faster ,harder , darker, more gothic than the other souls game ,The Van Helsing type game is just awesome ,the Gameplay feels like any other souls game and i enjoy this game. PS4 sure as hell needed this after the disgrace known as The Order 18-something.
-
Mar 24, 2015Early "review" after three hours of play. It's Dark Souls on crack. It's really good, about the only reason to have a PS4 if you've already got a PC, and it's totally worth every penny.
-
Mar 24, 2015Made me sneeze tears. I have only sneezed tears one other time during my life, when toilets were invented. So I think it is safe to say that my sneeze has a lot of meaning.
-
Mar 24, 2015Bloodborne is the best Game on the PS4. The atmosphere is incredible and the combat system makes a lot of fun. Fans of the "Souls" series will love this game.
-
Mar 24, 2015Игра великолепна! Играю уже порядка 4-5 часов и не могу оторваться - браво Миядзаки, мне более сказать про эту замечательнейшую игру нечего. Удивили не то слово.
-
Mar 24, 2015Es un juego que tenemos que valorar por lo que es.
No es Dark o Demon´s Souls.
ES BLOODBORNE.
Y mi veredicto tras 42 horas de juego continuo es de un 9,8 -
Mar 24, 2015The best generation game! I am very angry about dying in the game! Game difficult and engaging! I'm loving it all! Great gameplay! Best PS4 game ever!!!
-
Mar 24, 2015Great music and scenery! This is the best game of From Software so far. Awesome mastepiece. You have to dodge all the time which is great fun. Highly recommend this game to any newcomers, and souls fans.
My favourite game in a long time -

Mar 24, 2015Absolutely fantastic, this game (in my opinion) is the best one of this generation so far, it's what the players have been waiting since the start of this gen.The set is perfect, graphics are really nice, combat is awesome,enemies are terrifying, everything in this game is awesome and addicting.

Mar 24, 2015Amazing BOMB!
Just the perfect Killer Application of this generation, PS4 have now a must-have for all Soul's Fan out there.
We got a GOTY here guys, enjoy! -
Mar 24, 2015First time playing a From Software game. I have to say this game is freaking amazing! Once I'm done with this which I'm sure it will not be for a while I'm gonna give the Dark Souls games a shot. I just love that feeling of accomplishment with this very difficult but addicting game.
-
Mar 24, 2015This is why we game. Bloodborne is a title that defines and consumes. It is, in all aspects, a masterpiece. As a Souls Veteran of 900+ hours, this MF is hard. GOOD LUCK.
-
Mar 24, 2015An amazing and atmospheric masterpiece. Takes what makes the Souls series so special and amplifies it ten fold. The new, faster combat system and the emphasis on horror make Bloodborne an instant classic.
-
Mar 24, 2015There're no words to describe how magnificent is this game. Bloodborne is the perfect and at the same time cruel evolution of Souls series. His deepest fears will be revealed in this game. Masterpiece. Thanks Sony and From Software.
-
Mar 24, 2015Melhor jogo da geração até o momento. Jogabilidade excelente, história cativante e ambientação magnifica! Gráficos não são de ponta, porém, levando em consideração que é um jogo da série Souls, o gráfico do jogo está incrível. Assim como Demons Souls, que até então havia sido o jogo de melhor qualidade da série, Bloodborne é sem dúvida um sucessor de qualidade da série!
-
Mar 24, 2015One by one of the movement is made carefully , and cool enough infuriating.
The pre-read the movement of the enemy , brilliant and pulled the attack ,
when given a whole body blow , a large amount of adrenaline secreted.
The game It does not hurt to buy if you're loved.
I now have to spend the time that exciting best. -
Mar 24, 2015This game is a masterpiece! Hard as Bloody hell! If you don't like a really hard challenge ...get away from it! But if you assume the risk...bring it on!
-
Mar 24, 2015If you liked Dark Souls 1 or Demon's Souls you'll love it, It innovates enough to make every experience and encounter new and fresh.
Any negative review is made by people who either only have a PC/Xbox/WiiU or have never played it. -
Mar 24, 2015Utterly engrossing. Miyazaki is back on top form with this gruesome, gothic romp through the cavernous streets of Yarnham. The gameplay is frenetic yet precise, the atmosphere is dark and heavy and the sound design ... oh the sound design. Overall: truly spectacular and a must own.
-
Mar 24, 2015God has blessed us with this almighty game my brethrens,go try it u won't be disappointed.This is the game that made me go and buy a PS4.nuff said.BloodBorne's a masterpiece.GFX are much better here then they were in Soul games,the blood effects are hella awesome,chalice mp is also surprisingly good
-
Mar 24, 2015Beautiful game, coming by From Software, I waited so long for something like that.
It's extremely immersive , it's kind of dream or nightmare , the graphics are amazing.
It has Great Soundtrack and Scenery, Immersion and everything good can define this game, for sure a must buy. -
Mar 24, 2015Clearly the Game of the year 2015.
* +60hours game
* Great Sound
* Great Gameplay
You can dislike this game but only haters or Xboners give 0 to this game. -
Mar 24, 2015Bloodborne, the spiritual successor to Demon's/Dark Souls, is perhaps the best game released this year. Each boss, weapon, and environment has been meticulously designed, and the world is a dark yet engrossing one that will hook you in for hours.
-
Mar 24, 2015Amazing game, great soundtrack, game play, The enemies and environment design is amazing too , a little weird AF and have some frames drops, I don't care about the loading (I play to not die) but everything else is amazing, love this game.
For me GOTY -
Mar 24, 2015This is a complete Dark Souls rip off. It's very fun and look amazing but I don't care!
And this is why you should never believe in a Metacritic user. -
Mar 24, 2015The best in the series so far. Great sound, dark and greedy, large amount of content and re-playability.
The best part of submitting this comment is watching the negative user submitted scores crying for a PC port of the game. X-mas came early :) -
Mar 24, 2015The Xbox fanboys and PC fanboys are trying their best to speak negative in the user score of this game :/ This game is one of the best games of the year! It easily exceeded my expectations :) Monsters leave their mark on you, co-op is amazing, and the weapons are really cool :D Honestly, I think this is definitely worth the purchase and easily the best game to come out so far for PS4 this year :D
-
Mar 24, 2015Just a great game overall, nice graphics, nice soundtracks, awesome boss fights and the difficulty is right. A must for any ps4 owners and worthy of all the good critics and reviews

Mar 24, 2015Its been a long, hard, beautifull night. Thaks a lot FromSoftware. Just writing for the 150 chars, what I really want to say is: PERFECT GAME.
-
Mar 24, 2015Bloodborne keeps everything that made the Souls games great and finds way to make it better. The combat is faster and more exciting and the whole game is infused with a haunting Lovecraft-style atmosphere, but the satisfying challenge is still there. From Software knocks another one out of the park; it's still early, but Bloodborne is a definite contender for game of the year.

Mar 24, 2015It's everything Dark Souls was, cranked up to 11. This is the best non-remake game on new gen yet. (The Last of Us was one of my favorite games of all time, however).
This is a system seller if there ever was one. Hard, but not in stupid ways. It challenges you to be better and you will, or you will die repeatedly. -
Mar 24, 2015This game is unbelievable it changed my whole life. Verry good game, the Combat feels awesome, the graphics look very good in my Opinion. Also there is a very cute lady doll
-
Mar 24, 2015An absolute monster of a game. Dark, brutal but still their is beauty in all this darkness. The art direction is impeccable and the fighting system is incredibly rewarding and fun. Absolute must buy and the first real system seller for PS4!
-
Mar 24, 2015This is the best game ever. Period. The soul series reached the perfection. I never felt so tense and alone in a game before. Completely alone. There is a paradoxical feeling there: you love the game, but the game hates you.
-
Mar 24, 2015
-
Mar 24, 2015By far the best game out there on the ps4 till date. great soundtrack, wonderful atmosphere,hard game-play. this game has everything a die-heart souls fan would want from it and it delivers perfectly.
-
Mar 24, 2015Absolutely stunning game visuals and equally astounding game play. From Software's new universe truly immerses the player and allows him to experience something like never before. As good as and may even be slight better than dark souls due to its faster paced combat systems.
-
Mar 24, 2015From Software u are genius... If u are fan of Souls series u will be happy. Locations/design/atmosphere over 9000 level. The best action rpg in next gen consoles - no doubt.
-
Mar 24, 2015If you are a fan of the series you'll love this game. The faster pace is a refreshing change to the already amazing game play formula. This game may not be for everyone (especially the obvious trolls giving it a 0 thinking they are accomplishing something) but for those who do enjoy it, they will enjoy it allot.
-
Mar 24, 2015Having a blast so far, great graphics, plays very well. Received an early copy and didn't put it down for the whole weekend (except for a few Iron Banner hours). Must have.
-
Mar 24, 2015The game is awesome, it's definitely the best ps4 games so far (excluding tlou remastered). It's not without its fault too( long loading time) but I still give this a 10 because some trolls decided that 0 is an acceptable score to this game( or any games for that matter). Overall, a real gem.
-
Mar 24, 2015This is an amazing game, story line, setting, and gamplay make this a real unique game and the best in the souls series! but by far the best thing about it is......its not on pc so i guess its the ps4 master race now hahahahahahahahahaha

-
Mar 24, 2015Thank you, From Software, for bringing Dark Souls 1 quality back!
The game is beautiful and alive! The scenario is so full of detail, it's kinda hard to distinguish everything if you don't look with some attention!
10/10 love it. -
Mar 24, 2015Great Game. Incredible story, atmosphere, soundtrack! Miyzaki is the true genious of this generation!
First killer app for Playstation, It's a different game from Dark Souls..only similar...still GREAT -
Mar 24, 2015Excellent game that returns to the roots that made the original Souls games shine. A true masterpiece which excellent gameplay that does not forgive if you make a mistake.
-
Mar 24, 2015Probably the best game you can get on the PS4 right now or any next gen console at all. Its the highest rated souls game, PS4 game, and next gen game.
