Vampires and Video Games

  1. Vampires are awesome. No doubt about it. They suck blood, come with a host of interesting powers, burn in the sun, dress in black, and are either sexy or torture sexy people.

    Well.

    Anyways.

    Video games are great too. You can let out your inner anger and bloodlust in a socially acceptable manner, as apposed to stabbing someone on the street.

    My question is, why are these two things combined so rarely? The last vampire video game I can remember is Darkwatch. And that wasn't even that great. And it came out in like 2008.

    If there was a vampire video game, what do you think it'd be like? Would you play as it against them? What powers would our blood-sucking idols posses?

    (If this thread actually gets attention I'll write about my vampire video game ideas.)
     
  2. just go play blood rayne again.
     
  3. Blood rayne was a pretty fun game terrible movie truly awful.

    Pretty sure there was a couple of decent world of darkness video games a few years back look for them.
     
  4. Read twilight.
     
  5. Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain was awesome back in 1996  one of my favorite Playstation games.
     
  6. The elder scrolls had some vampire related stuff. Even more so in skyrim but it's still not a vampire game...
     
  7. Vampire: The Masquerade – Redemption
    2000 PC platform

    Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines
    2004 PC platform
     
  8. Legacy of kain, soulreaver was awesome for it's time
     
  9. Zubat is a vampire bat and he's annoying
     
  10. Actually they're used more frequently then you think, every dungeon quest type game uses vampires, like your skyrims as such.

    The reason they don't make game solely on the concept of vampires, is well there isn't much that the games story can be based on. They're typically always the same thing, fighting hordes of monsters.

    Personally I don't like vampires, I cringe while watching vampire movies and the have a general dislike when I play a game as a vampire.
