I remember buying a new copy of this at GameStop for $40 or $50 back in the day and when I went to return it the next day, the worker said “we usually don’t allow returns on new games but I’ll make an exception in this case.”
Completed it on 360, it wasn't bad at all. One thing people don't seem to understand is that the game is very linear. In most gameplay segments you have to find the one correct course of actions. If you grasp that, the game is pretty decent as a stealth action.
Isn’t that inherently awful for a STEALTH game? Those are centered around having multiple ways of completing your mission. Making sense doesn’t equate to fun gameplay.
I remember this game well. I tried my best to complete it. Was actually somewhat enjoying it. Got to what I thought was the end of the game. Only for it to carry on and I lost interest in it.
@@jadedheartsz wow lol I got to what thought was the last boss and was glad when I beat him then the game went on and I just couldn't bring my self to playing anymore lol
I made it! Been watching through this whole series over the past couple of months and now I’m up to date and the only thing I have to offer is this: I have been waiting, wondering when Victim Select would become Games Victim Select and it turns out the answer is “never”.
I remember reading a review of this game, by GameInformer, who gave it a 3 out of 10. A 3/10. How does a game get THAT bad?! That's when I knew to stay the hell away from this garbage. How anyone made it through the game, without throwing their controllers through the window, is beyond me...
Hello 👋 I'm one of those souls. Legacy Of Kain is one of my fave franchises, or was then - I stupidly thought this might be a little bit like it, so paid about £15 for it not long after release. I bought so many bad games back then as I didn't put much stock in magazine reviews. It's a lot easier to avoid dross nowadays. Saying this, the Fast & Furious game released not long back sold loads, as did Marvels Avengers, so bad games will always be bought by someone 😂 thankfully, that someone is no longer me*. I bought Troll And I at a car boot sale last week 😩 it was 50p, I still feel ripped off.
Ooh I was thinking about sending you the 360 version of this game, but I decided to send you Rogue Warrior instead, looks like I made the right call in doing so.
No mother trucking way I remember playing this on the 360 abit and have been looking for it again for years but couldn't remember the name or find it on Google with a vauge description... My excitement when I realised what it finally was 😅
This was another great video! Also as a patreon, at the $5 a month tier, I've gotten to watch weirdest games ever and it's fantastic. If you're on the fence about patreon getting the videos early is totally worth it!
How the Hell did the developers advertise this as "Vampire MGS/Splinter Cell" yet didn't even include any hand to hand combat or stealth grabs. That's one of the most satisfying things to do in a stealth game and they cut it out entirely.
There’s no stealth grabs but when you get a little farther in you get access to the UV knife. You find them scattered around the area, using it gives you a one tap kill as long as you’re sneaky enough
These guys are the quintessential video game journalists. Terrible at games, but completely unable to grasp that the problem might be them. Funny, though.
Hold out hope with me brother that the next one will not only eventually come out, but even be at least half as enjoyable as the original Bloodlines. I’m starting to lose the faith.
Real talk played through this game with my bros and it was soooo bad it was good. Def recommend experiencing this “gem.” Those final 3 missions go hard.
Vampire rain Some stay dry and others feel the pain Vampire rain A baby born will die before the sin. Bit more obscure than G'NR but fits just as well.
Yeah; the ballet dancing guy with nanomachines; Vamp. And that guy was played by Phil Lamar; a comedian who's also played Static Shock; and Samurai Jack. No really.
Legacy Of Kain: Soul Reaver was pretty stealthy at times - it did indeed rule. Vampyr was pretty stealthy too, at least the few hours I played was, I gave up on it pretty sharpish cos of the woeful frame rate and textures on PS4.
It’s not a bad idea trying to mesh Resident Evil with MGS and Splinter Cell but it’s pretty awful when you look back at how both of those games handled level design in the early PS2 days, let alone PS3
It’s so surreal that you guys played this game. It was the first game I got for my 360 and it scared the piss out of me and anyone I tried talked to about this game never heard of it. Looking back on it I can’t see why I was so scared of this game 😂
I got this game for free from a friend and it's the original and not a bootleg and i completed it twice, there is a method to kill the vampires even after getting the assault rifle, shoot using your pistol first then swap to your AR, the only good weapons against the vampires are the shotgun and sniper rifle and if i remember correctly a uv knife
@@brawler5760Is he just a fan of vampire games; secretly? Well; I hope he got paid a lot for being in crap like that and this. I'd say he should stick with playing Sasuke Uchiha and Yosuke Hanamura.
Dark is basically the inverse of this game, instead of a stealth game where you sneak around vampires in dark your a vampire who sneaks around dudes with guns
This is a crappy beta version of Splinter Cell meets a poor clone of Metal Gear Solid; starring Judd Johnson from X-Squad. If you tried to combine Splinter Cell with Metal Gear Solid; and for some reason threw in vampires? And Yuri Lowenthal; and Laura Bailey? Also; has anyone ever gotten past this part; ever? Or is the game THAT bad?
I played this game when I was like 11 with my little brother and that was scary lol. But that was actually a fun game to me and I finished it. I might be one of the only one who liked it 😂
I remember watching my dad play the game when I was younger, and I had asked for a turn. He gave me the controller. When I say I shit myself out of fear I mean it man. It was so fun as a kid though. I guess it's more of a guilty pleasure lol
Ok..... so I have a very......VERY.....DEEP HATE FOR THIS GAME! I played it on the xbox 360 and my God.....I literally bought it for $7AUD and I regretted it the minute I started playing. I tried to LITERALLY GIVE THE GAME AWAY to all the game shops for honestly nothing in return for 6 years!!! NOONE WOULD TAKE IT!! They kept saying it would cost too much to list it or put in their stock than it would ever be worth....I begged my local EB pawn shop to take it and they said "look, just use the case and disc as a drink coaster??".....THIS GAME IS THE ABSOLUTE WORSE GAME EVER......FUCK.....THIS....GAME!!! That being said. I'm soooo happy ya'll finally played it hahaha this game deserves a 0.0000001% rating 😂😂😂😂
I remember buying a new copy of this at GameStop for $40 or $50 back in the day and when I went to return it the next day, the worker said “we usually don’t allow returns on new games but I’ll make an exception in this case.”
I brought it for 5 dollars at game stop 5 years ago
I bought for $6 24 hours ago lol
Such luck. You should have bought a lottery ticket instead of the game. That was your one chance ever
Bought this bad boy for $2 and almost finished it. I liked how it was always raining but other than that i mean it basically sucks
@Big Chungus
"I liked how it always rained"
You'll love Arkham Knight then
Even in a bad game (worse than most), I still enjoy hearing Laura Bailey voice acting.
DAMMIT YURI WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!?
@@LaineMann I knew it; that was Yuri Lowenthal...
'She got taken up the pipe' I absolutely lost it as this hardest I've laughed at WGE for a while
You mean the dirt pipe? 😜
" ... as an actress said to a bishop."
You can tell by the menu's that this game's world exists inside the Matrix
I have been waiting YEARS for this moment.
Fun fact: I've seen multiple people play this game, and never anyone getting beyond these levels.
What
I remember the review on Gametrailers, It had the sentence "Your knife uses ammunition" as a sign of how terrible it was.
Wow Yuri Lowenthal is in the game I recognized him instantly
Nolan North too.
I was wondering if anyone would ever cover this game, that shit was one of the most awful experiences I've had in all my years of gaming.
It’s amazing
☠️ its best game oat
I bought this game a long time ago cause the main character looked like Solid Snake.

Yeah that's what we all wanted was a single path "stealth" game.....oh wait, no it wasnt.
That's the exact opposite of what a stealth game is suppose to be. It's a bad game.
I remember this game well. I tried my best to complete it. Was actually somewhat enjoying it. Got to what I thought was the end of the game. Only for it to carry on and I lost interest in it.
I actually did finish this game on 360, it was hard but I did it.
@@jadedheartsz wow lol I got to what thought was the last boss and was glad when I beat him then the game went on and I just couldn't bring my self to playing anymore lol
@@jadedheartsz I finished it too, and actually ended up liking it.
@@vinegro4579 yep same I finished it on hard
I made it! Been watching through this whole series over the past couple of months and now I’m up to date and the only thing I have to offer is this:
I have been waiting, wondering when Victim Select would become Games Victim Select and it turns out the answer is “never”.
Getting caught by Nightstalkers makes you really good at Irish Dancing it appears
“Lord Hesler is actually an anagram of I am Dracula.” Shit that made me laugh.
I remember playing a demo for this game on the 360. I died. A lot.
I remember reading a review of this game, by GameInformer, who gave it a 3 out of 10.
A 3/10. How does a game get THAT bad?! That's when I knew to stay the hell away from this garbage. How anyone made it through the game, without throwing their controllers through the window, is beyond me...
Vampire Rain the more scary version of raining Cats and Dogs just image Dracula and a bunch of other Vampires falling from the sky.
Genuinely thought Peter had a strap-on on his head at first. So spooky.
That natural vampire's voice is the Prince from sands of time!!
The issue with having night vision is that everything is the same uniform green
I was expecting Benpotter to be named the Games Inquisition and walked away bitterly disappointed.
i had the 360 version and thought it was really cool but hard then i found out it's considered one of the worst games ever
This really made me want to play vampire masquerade: bloodline
Everytime you mention it...
Every aspect of this game is soul-crushingly, oppressively boring. Imagine the poor souls who actually spent money on this abomination.

@@pittibarlin8692 I once wasted $8 on Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City lol
i've played worse, still beats Takedown Red Sabre.
Breath of the Wild is not relevant to this video, delete this comment now.
@@Dr170 your comment will break after a few more days so don't worry about it.
Ooh I was thinking about sending you the 360 version of this game, but I decided to send you Rogue Warrior instead, looks like I made the right call in doing so.
How on earth is it possible to rip off TWO amazing games, and not get ANYTHING enjoyable out of it?!
No mother trucking way

AIB, an Irish Bank, makes this even funnier to me 😂😂😂
4:33 "... just looks like a game either by capcom, konami or namco.... they all look the same." Professional game journalist right there.
These guys are the quintessential video game journalists. Terrible at games, but completely unable to grasp that the problem might be them. Funny, though.
This really made me want to play vampire: the masquerade - bloodlines
Hold out hope with me brother that the next one will not only eventually come out, but even be at least half as enjoyable as the original Bloodlines. I’m starting to lose the faith.
I think it’s a shame that we don’t have more good vampire games.
I stg that's Yuri Lowenthal at 8:51 and Nolan North at 9:52 ... anyone else hear them too?
That dialogue though. Fantastic video!
"Solid Sam" sounds like the name you give your REALLY dependable friend.
Real talk played through this game with my bros and it was soooo bad it was good. Def recommend experiencing this “gem.” Those final 3 missions go hard.
Or I'll just end up walkin' in the cold Vampire rain.......
Vampire rain
Some stay dry and others feel the pain
Vampire rain
A baby born will die before the sin.
Bit more obscure than G'NR but fits just as well.
Halloween is in 2 weeks exactly so I have very high expectations for the Halloween episode
This game has almost 2.5 hours of cutscenes.
So this game has the logic that birds flying off might alert enemies that you're there, but firing a shot at them is completely inconspicuous...
3:54 That was legitimately spooky.
I owned this and wanted to cleanse my home
I hated it because i wanted to kill vampires in a militry style shooter/stealth game......it was trash.
This is just budget Splinter Cell
"Tony Law works there" made me laugh more than it should have.
Metal Gear ALREADY has a vampire, lol.
Yeah; the ballet dancing guy with nanomachines; Vamp. And that guy was played by Phil Lamar; a comedian who's also played Static Shock; and Samurai Jack. No really.
this had potential. A stealth game w/ vampires should rule
Legacy Of Kain: Soul Reaver was pretty stealthy at times - it did indeed rule.
Vampyr was pretty stealthy too, at least the few hours I played was, I gave up on it pretty sharpish cos of the woeful frame rate and textures on PS4.
Am I the only one who hears the bass line from “PPAP” during the “games victim/games master” select screen?
I didn't know this game existed until I saw an endurance stream of this game
15:00 what does that pipe even do? Once it gets up to the roof, it bends back down again.
Mom can we have Metal Gear?
Mom: We have Metal Gear at home.
Metal Gear at Home:
Sorry lads, I don't use Facebook and I'm sure I'm not alone
That theramin theme song absolutely slaps
‘People interrupting you while you watching the show’, how did you know I’d be watching Doctor Who 😃😃😂😂
Glad you're back home; take care of yourself ❤
4:52: That face is much scarier than the rest of the game
Hahaha! The newcastle utd joke was amazing!
It’s not a bad idea trying to mesh Resident Evil with MGS and Splinter Cell but it’s pretty awful when you look back at how both of those games handled level design in the early PS2 days, let alone PS3
Absurdist Canadian comedian Tony Law is in this game?!
A Rain Vampire it's those that can't stand get wet by the rain, they can walk below the sun but the rain will melt them...
Your new table is so huge it look's like the bottom half of a letterbox. If only you had some more friends to fill that empty space....
ahhh this game, my dad got me this when it released he was in poland on work trip and i asked him to buy some game and he got me this
I'm really sorry to hear your dad doesn't like you.
11:16 Damn, I think that's the voice actor who plays Haughton, in G-Police
Wow, 20:39 I didn't know Pennywise was going to be in this game lol.
I can't believe there's vampires taking people up the pipe
I feel like most PS3 games had the problem of being both too dark AND too bright, and you were constantly having to deal with one or the other! 😤
That’s a problem that it and 360 games had, mixed in with the trash color palette.
It’s so surreal that you guys played this game. It was the first game I got for my 360 and it scared the piss out of me and anyone I tried talked to about this game never heard of it. Looking back on it I can’t see why I was so scared of this game 😂

Was this video uploaded 14 years late?
this game is such an unbelievably bad and egregious splinter cell ripoff i'm surprised no one was sued
Soldier: Sir! Our base was just attacked and there were major casualties, the perpetrators are still unknown
Me: 9:40
This is a gulity pleasure of mine. Flawed as hell, but i didn't think it was one of the worst games I've ever played.
I've got that same PlayStation 3 controller with the camo finish lol.
5:28 had me cackling.
Oh dear, they've dragged poor Yuri Lowenthal into this 🤣
Oh, no...not Yuri Lownethal! What'd he do to deserve this?! He was Yosuke Hanamura, Sasuke Uchiha, AND Goku(that one time), and also Ben Tennyson.
Ironically they dragged Yuri Lowenthal back into another vampire game, Redfall. I’d say Redfall is way more fun than this ultra linear ass bullshit.
@@brawler5760Is he just a fan of vampire games; secretly? Well; I hope he got paid a lot for being in crap like that and this. I'd say he should stick with playing Sasuke Uchiha and Yosuke Hanamura.
God that theme is ear candy
The guys who made Blinx the Time Sweeper made this.
Splinter Cell meets Metal Gear Solid meets those crap vampire books
That man has a pepper on his head.
Love them crazy thumbnails
that green really killed this for me
Nice nod to Slayer.... 🤘🤘🤘
Mom: We have Splinter Cell at home.
I'd say the protag agent "is not Snake", in other words 'Snot Snake.
Dark is basically the inverse of this game, instead of a stealth game where you sneak around vampires in dark your a vampire who sneaks around dudes with guns
And they’re both equally shit for different reasons.
Dark is so bizzarely entertaining to play though. I always have a great time with my playthrough, despite the huge flaws
How long before Judd Johnson joins the group on the table?
What's the difference between this and the 360 version without the subtitle "Altered Species" ?
that guy's "deep" voice sounds pitch shifted down
Got that Camo DualShock3 my last PS3 controller.
Looks like the guy from Winback more than Snake
I remember borrowing this game from my brother. I couldn’t get past the first mission. It sucks
This is a very poor imitation of Splinter Cell
This is a crappy beta version of Splinter Cell meets a poor clone of Metal Gear Solid; starring Judd Johnson from X-Squad.

7:40 "los angle lease"
If the devs don't try it's a zero
Finally something good to watch on UA-cam
