  Awesome and challenging action platformer featuring a sexy red headed dhampir slicing up all manner of evil. Combat is difficult but rewarding with a nice feeling of satisfaction when you nail a sick combo. Fun campaign mode, nice art style, and an amazing soundtrack! Some of the platforming bits felt a bit clunky or perhaps the precision required just rustled my jimmies but otherwise a great game!

  The atmosphere, music, style etc all are A+. I could not wait to play, and enjoyed the first half of the game. Now for the bad. The game eats inputs. For a platforming game that eats your jump inputs when holding right half the time is unacceptable and becomes completely unplayable towards the end of the game when timing multiple jumps becomes necessary to complete the level. For the first half missing a jump isnt the end of the world, but still can be frustrating. Second major issue is hitbox detection. Getting hit by things not touching your characters image, being able to stand half into spinning saws without being hurt, falling through platforms that you jump on, or even taking spike damage from the top edge of the platform, but not the spike part you can jump off of... Third some of the abilities/moves not intuitive. The game also does not say a controller is recommended. I would argue its STRONGLY recommended. I may purchase on psn to see if using a controller solves this. Now doing a high jump involves running, releasing ALL keys, then pushing jump, but only if Rayne is sliding, if she just comes to a stop she will only do a regular jump. This mechanic is balls. Lastly, I love the concept, music and its fun once you get used to the controls even on keyboard. It pains me to not recommend the game, but with the game eating your jump command, and it being necessary to do many timed jumps in succession to complete some levels, I just cant in good faith tell people to pay money for this. If they patch the game I could see this being a thumbs up, 9/10 or 10/10 Please buy now review.

  Great combat and level design. solid mechanics. fantastic OST. the only problem i had was on chapter 15 with the pulsing overlay making it hard to see what exactly was going on without dying to it first. making the entire chapter a nightmare. very solid otherwise.

  Pros: Good art style. music is ok, despite the same track playing over and over again presentation is decent enough for a middle market game... and that's about it Cons: Samey environments; the first five levels are in what seems to be in a castle Gameplay is EXTREMELY repetitive even for what it is. Level design is piss poor, the scoring system doesn't make any sense (how is it that i can get a f on one level and make sure i do well and play like crap on another and get a c?) Enemy types are too repeated new enemies are added but by the time they do you've lost interest. Bloodrayne as a character is cool and she's overdue for a new proper game. But not like this. If you like these kinds of games (which i do btw), and don't mind the awkward jumping mechanics, the lack of a duck feature (because you know how much dhampirs can't duck) the pointless bird sections of the game and the difficulty of the game and the lack of options.. then yeah get it.. for cheap because it's not worth 10 dollars. i paid 2 for it and that was fair. By and large it's not horrible or broken, but too mediocre to matter.

  Nice art, barely existent animation. The game plays like a budget Castlevania, which sounds great as a concept, but the unbelievably stiff controls keep me from saying the game is "good". Every movement and attack feels stilted and slippery, and as the game throws more and more death traps at you it's not something you adapt to; it's just bad. It's certainly a challenge, but it's much more a test of patience and willingness to put up with frustration than a test of skill or memorization. The soundtrack is pure generic butt rock that's just cheesy enough to be enjoyable, though it could use a few more tracks. Overall Bloodrayne Betrayal is forgettable aside from the fact that I somehow powered my way through it. Don't bother unless you've mastered the hundreds of better platformers that are available and you kind of hate yourself.

  If I made a list of things I think constitute bad video game controls, almost everything about BloodRayne Betrayal's controls would be on it. Confronted with every option of doing something to make the game flowing and fun, or making it feel numb and clunky, they seem to have opted for the latter. It doesn't matter starting out. The game is gorgeous and has a modestly budgeted feel that makes it quite easy to forgive and even like initially. More maneuvers are introduced before long, and although it wears thin eventually, you have a decent amount of combat options to mix things up and express yourself with that stuff. But when they take what is a fairly functional 2D brawler and apply it to platforming sections, it just turns into a miserable experience. Not miserable because it's impossible - it's not - miserable because there's absolutely nothing fun or stimulating about the arbitrary gameplay segments they force on you. They are just a chore. If you simply describe those sections to somebody - that you're asked to bounce on enemies to keep afloat while fighting other enemies - it sounds challenging and fun because you imagine that the controls are suitably responsive, but boy they sure aren't. Truth is I really wanted to like this. It looks really, really cool and it's a fun and clever use of the license. There are plenty of moments when it's easy enough to gloss over its issues and enjoy, but when you first pick it up, the game immediately feels less snappy and responsive than you want a game like this to feel, and before it's over it asks you to perform precision movement that make its shortcomings impossible to ignore.

  I really enjoyed BloodRayne 1 and 2. They had fun over the top action, a decent storyline, and generally good graphics for their time. BloodRayne (along with Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines) may very well be the best in this very small genre of vampire video games. I had seen the mixed reviews for BloodRayne: Betrayal on Steam and elsewhere, but being a fan of the franchise, I decided to check it out anyway. Unfortunately, much of the criticism is well-founded. The two major criticisms of the game were its controls, and its unbalanced difficulty. The controls are not as responsive as you’d expect in a 2D platformer. You’ll often find yourself positioning yourself at just the right location to suck an enemy’s blood, or finding just the right timing to execute certain basic attacks. Now about the difficulty, I’m not usually one to complain if a game is too hard. Although the game has a higher than normal level of difficulty throughout, every once in a while you’ll reach a level that is just so ridiculous, that you may question whether it’s really worth your time trying to beat it considering that the game isn’t that good in the first place anyway. These two criticisms are unfortunate, because I think that had the controls been more responsive and the difficulty more balanced this may have turned out to be a great addition to the BloodRayne series. If you were a fan of the first two games like me, you will probably pick this up anyway in which case I’d recommend waiting for a sale. If you are new to the BloodRayne franchise, I would recommend passing on BloodRayne: Betrayal and picking up BloodRayne 1 and 2 instead.

  Great art direction is not enough to save a title from sloppy design, terrible controls and boring gameplay. Unless you are insanely into 2d/hack and slash I’d give it a miss. A real shame.

  Those lights that you can't even see are so annoying , and you kept being hit by stuff that is hidden. Who thought that was fun?
