1) Amazon.com Review
Warning! Those are not vampires coming up behind you, but purveyors of a cheap movie tie-in game. Blade II knows how it works: give you some punk-rock bad guys and the mocking guidance of Whistler and you're likely to be satisfied. And some will. But the rest of us will be scratching our heads, wondering why Blade looks like a beefy Will Smith (instead of the lean yet muscular Wesley Snipes) and sounds like Some Guy They Got for Cheap, instead of a reasonable impersonator. Action-adventure gamers know the drill before the game even starts: strafe with bullets, special attack, punch and kick, complete missions. That's all well and good. This game earns its Mature rating with a particularly gross attack: a stab to the top of the head that seems to be Blade's specialty. (There are also plenty of swear words.) With a smidge of gore and an uninspired plot, Blade II is a game for fans only. --Jennifer BuckendorffPros:Intuitive controls Amusing heckling from Whistler Rage function gives you extra bloodlust Cons:Blade himself: lame Stupid missions

2) Amazon.com Product Description
Blade II is an action-adventure game that allows players to take on the role of Marvel's half-vampire, half-human superhero on a quest to save the human race. As Blade, players must make maximum use of his special abilities, weapons, and martial arts moves to stop the vampire nation's quest to create an all-new form of super-vampires known as Reapers. The game's revolutionary multidirectional fighting system allows players to take on blood-sucking enemies as they attack from all directions. The visual effects add to the game's realism as vampire foes are obliterated.

2) this game rocks!!!!   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Unleash justice with exterme authority. Vampires. Relentless predators that stalk only one type of prey: humans. For countless generations there was very little to stand between mankind and the hungering darkness. Until now. He is Blade, the daywalker, and he's the Vampires' worst nightmare...I love this game. The day I bought this game I was hooked. I played it for four hours nonstop. The best thing about it was that it followed the movie. I beat this game the week after I purchased it. Since then, I played it again over 10 times. I love it. I recommend this game to anyone who loves Blade and vampire movies. Buy this game you won't be disappointed. I wasn't. It's money well spent.

3) What a Joke   [Rating: 1 out of 5]
My friend recomended I get this game..ITS SOOOO SWEET! IT'S SOOOO VIOLENT....This game is soooo stupid is what I told him. This games story was pretty intresting at first but then it all falls down.UGH! The graphics are horrible! The combos are unique..One of em' I'm still trying to learn but I stoped with the game.The game is pretty violent but as Violent as I thought it would be.The game gets pretty boring after awhile and it's very dull.I'd give it 0 stars if I could...But I can't... :(Well If you wanna waster your time with the game be my guest...I'm forcing you not to play the game cause hey...I can't..what els is there to say....So go out and buy it with your own opinion.But for me...I'm gonna have to say this game sucks big time...

4) FAIR WARNING: rent it before you buy it!!!   [Rating: 1 out of 5]
Being a Blade movie fan and a PS2 geek, I was excited about purchasing this game. Unfortunatley, it fell beneath my gaming expectations. The graphics are "cartoon" like, the 360 degree movements start to get annoying if not dizzy, and the lack of a map will leave you directionless although their are "glyphs" that help occasionally to steer you in the right path but not enough of them. Those three thing that I pointed out was enough for me to wish that I had rented it before I purchased it.

5) BLADE 2   [Rating: 1 out of 5]
I rented this game and to my horror I had to use the right anologue stick to fight, that's so uncomfortable. I played it for 40 mins and took it back to Blockbuster and that's the first time I've done that with a rented game.
