It would be a colossal burn to the X360 people *raises hand* if they tweaked this version so it didn't suck...

Vampire Rain sucked on the 360. What makes them think it's gonna be any better on the PS3?

This game almost made me cry. Instead, I smashed the disc to never be able to play it again. No, I didn't buy it. :)

Vampire Rain sounds like some part of a godawful pun from those joke books I always read as a kid.

So... Basically that would make it:
Vampire Rain: Altered Feces

(Ugh... I just made myself a little sick thinking of the "Rain" bit after thinking of 'Altered' feces :s)

There is absolutely no reason for me to read or comment on this story. The world would've been a better place if I never read it.

Except ...... this may be the BEST STORY IMAGE EVER! Bravo, Fahey and company. Bra Vo.

@Dakobah:

Sorry, I should have read the other comments first, so I wouldn't end up with this double-post.

Tay Zonday is a big internet sensation. He looks really young, but has a badass old blues guy kinda voice. Youtube "Chocolate Rain," and the Tay Zonday video that the picture is from should come up.

Vampire Raaaain, some stay dry and others feel the pain.

Hehe... Also, "Vampire Rain: Altered Feces" is a fantastic name for a port of a shitty game. I love that so much.

@BPMε:

You'd think with development talent that's comprised of former Sonic Team members, and headed by Sonic' creator (that's Naoto Oshima), Artoon would have a great track record.

Blinx proved that Oshima has a soft spot for anything related to time travel (having directed Sonic CD before)

The 360 can keep this **** game. I'd rather pluck my eyes out with a rusty spoon than play this again.

Uh, has anything Artoon been anything more than mediocre?

Was Blinx any good? I hadn't heard much about it, and it seems to have fallen into obscurity.

What about Blue Dragon? It was reviewed well, right? And it did get an anime series...

But Yoshi's Island DS was bad. It wasn't glitchy, or poorly put together or anything, just incredibly DULL. Although the baby switching was a cool idea, it was just a dull game. Boring platforming, forgettable soundtrack, and uninspiring graphics (seriously, the original looks better...).

And sounds like Vampire Rain wasn't any good... so it probably won't be a second time around...

Like i mentioned on another site i go to, this game BETTER come out at $9.99. And if it doesn't? It'll be that much in a month.

FP_slomo788 — Thu, 08 May 2008 19:30:23 MDT

Of course. The Metacritics estimates looked too good they need to come and piss on it. Listen assholes, I'd rather my console have fewer games than the competition than starting to be clogged by shovelware shit. It's almost forgivable for a game to be bad because of devs forcing originality (Lair), but this? Hopefully it sells like crap...

Maldron — Thu, 08 May 2008 19:28:50 MDT

I find it hard to have anything positive to say about this news other than the picture you chose to use.

Still... I have to wonder why they'd wait until now to make this particular move. I'd imagine whatever development time it takes to put up on the PS3 won't be covered in sales... Well, I guess I can't actually know that.

ban_hammer — Thu, 08 May 2008 19:27:14 MDT

so, what kind of sick love is this, Lost Planet, Vampire Rain... to make mediocre are crappy ports are one thing, but to port crap is another. Where are the good games like Dead Rising, even decent games like Mass Effect or Eternal Sonata is not done yet? Why is that?

Al Bino — Thu, 08 May 2008 19:25:56 MDT

It's probably an easy port and the developers, as long as some people buy the game, will probably make enough money from the PS3 version to make it worth porting it from one console to another. Vampire Rain's cover doesn't look too bad, I can imagine how someone who's not that well informed about the game thinks he's getting a neat horror game for his money.

@Yoshi3gg: I'm having a.. DEJA VU!! :P

That picture. IS AWESOME.
It helps that my friend recently found out about that song, and I never miss an opportunity to sing the title at him.
Sometimes it gets silly

example:
Him: Snickers are pretty good
Me: Do you think they're REALLY GOOD? Would you consider them the king of chocolate bars? Do they... do they reign over other chocolates? CHOCOLATE REIGN?

And then he hit me

But anyways, on the subject of this, all I know of the game comes from other people saying it sucked, so...
