Majesco Entertainment has announced (http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/050802/nytu022.html) that the PC version of their 3rd person action title, BloodRayne 2 (http://www.bloodrayne2.com), is now available.

Majesco Entertainment Company, an innovative provider of digital entertainment products and content, today announced that it has shipped the PC version of BloodRayne 2 to retail stores nationwide. Developed by Terminal Reality, BloodRayne 2 continues the mature action series that has sold nearly one million units to date.

Blessed with the powers of a vampire but cursed with the unquenchable thirst for blood and a weakness to sunlight, BloodRayne 2 challenges the supernatural anti-heroine with her most personal battle yet as she hunts down each of her wicked siblings who are carrying on the legacy of their dead father, Kagan.

Expanding upon the distinctive features that were the hallmark of its predecessor -- fast-paced acrobatic combat and supernatural powers -- BloodRayne 2 includes new in-game dynamics such as pole combat, rail sliding and advanced melee fighting with fatality moves. Built upon a modified version of the Infernal Engine, BloodRayne 2 introduces threatening new bosses, all new environments set within a huge modern day city, a range of new supernatural powers and new motion-captured movements complete with soft-body physics.

Already available for the Xbox video game system from Microsoft and the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, BloodRayne 2 for the PC is available for a suggested retail price of $29.99. Additional information about the game can be found at the official site: http://www.bloodrayne2.com. (http://www.bloodrayne2.com./)

I think that means that her jiggly parts will jiggle realistically.

Oh why must we get these sort of bizarre "improvements" when the work done to make fun gameplay is all but ignored.

Why oh why do jiggly bits and good gameplay have to be muttually exclusive? :confused: :( ;)

And what one earth, this is just dropping now?!?! I played the PC demo months upon months ago. o.O

Down with gameplay!

Jiggly bits are the future.

I'm in the "more jiggle is good" school myself. While it won't make a poor game great. It does add some spice which I enjoy. I've enjoyed the franchise. Wonder how much of an improvement it is over the console versions?

I hear they were offering free hand lotion with preorders. Can any fans of the series confirm?

I love boobs and vampires. Scantily clad vampires with amazing boobs? I call that a worthy investment.

I hear there have been big "gameplay" improvements over the last game, but I just can't shake this feeling that the developer is just making boobs out of anyone who buys their game.

That is some of the best onomatopoeia I have heard in a long time. Good job! And thanks for being my Max Weinberg!

I thought this came out last year?

Never noticed that it was not out.

They had the same wacky release schedule with the first game. Comes out for consoles.. then 3 months later a pc demo, then 6 months after that a pc release.

Didn't really like the first one that much I'll be skipping this one. Scantily clad women is all fine and good but I can get that from some good ol fashioned porn. When I play video games I'm looking for gameplay.

Bah, they took out the nazis and they were the best thing about the first one. Probably wont bother with it.

the demo of the game was shockingly bad. The franchise has tried to become more prince of persia in this game, but failed. The new camera angles were also a headache as they gave way to major control problems.
Weapons were balanced in a very strange way, as a stab with a harpoon would do more damage than a huge blade combo.

My advice is stay away!

You know, I agree with the Nazi comment. They seem to be the perfect people to kill and the screams they made were pretty good.

I absolutely hated the first one - the jumping was so horribly bad, and so much emphasis was put on jumping around. It was about as bad as Alice (which I also stopped playing because of the jumping).

However, Bloodrayne gave me one of the most hilarious moments in gaming. Rayne had some stupid animation that made her boobs jiggle when she ran. During a cutscene, she runs up to some dude and stops, but her boobs keep jiggling for another 10 seconds or so as she's standing still. I laughed my ass off, quit the game, and uninstalled it.

After a miserably bad opening set of levels (note to developers: No more swamps or sewer levels), the first game turned out to be mindless fun. It was especially entertaining (though almost ruinously unbalancing) to jump on a nazi and eat him while using him for cover. I had enough fun with it to finish the game, even though all the story & voice acting were atrocious.

The sequel was okay, but had some nasty scripting bugs on the XBox. I didn't stay interested past the big street fight.
