OK guys this game is OK its not bad i know AVGN review was harsh and you all trust in that guy but come on give it some slack.OK at the time there were trying some thing new at the time.OK 1 Graphics its was better than the first and things had good detail but the pallet was just lazy i mean making one town gray was just dumb. 2 Sounds for this game the sounds were great the whip sound was better death sounds were better and the music was awesome this was the first game to have bloody tears witch was awesome. 3 Addictiveness OK sure you beat the game but theres no way that your going to play this game again but thing is the game long and it was OK not bad OK. 4 story the story is now more complex now, the wounds that Dracula has done now gave you a cures and only way to get rid of it is bring back Dracula and kill him again if you beat the game slowly then Simon dies in the end if you beat it fast Simon lives, thats a cool story, 5 Depth oh this game is big REALLY BIG!!! and miss on thing your going to back track a lot talking to towns folk does not help its all hard to understand and some of them lie to you like that one guys who said the women at the lake likes garlic thats a lie and when you do find out what to do its not in proper grammar like words in the game are miss spelled so play this game with walk thur, even so you have to read the same old thing every 15 mins "What a horrible night to have a cures" and you cant skip it but the thing is it tried to make you sacred . 6 OK other than not knowing where to go, all the enemys were easy and some places don't have bosses and when they do you can just walk right past them but the big flying face guy you need to beat him and Dracula theres a easy way to beat him. over this games OK this game theme was horror and fear not action so its OK play or not don't matter. PS the morning sun has vanquished the horrible night.
