Blood Wake (xbox) Reviews

Customer Ratings:

I love this game. It has great action in a well designed and programmed environment. This game is technically solid and well developed. No slow downs, constant frame rate, great graphics, and the best water effects around make this one of the best games around.

I don't find this game at all monotonous like a few claim. It's a mission based combat game. It's a dog fighting game in water. If you like Star Wars Starfighter or Star Wars: Rogue Leader you will love this game. Plus, It has advantages over those game due to it's great multiplayer and battle mode features. Tons of stuff to do in this game!

I find it disappointing that people who haven't even touched this game come up with clearly false reviews. This game is not Twisted Metal or a Boat Racing game. This game is a mission based combat/ dog fighting game in water.

This game is not the best X-Box game out there... coughHALOcough. However this game is fairly entertaining in its own respect. I won't go into the details about the graphics (boats and water are fantastic other graphics less impressive). The storyline is average with the cheesy voiceovers that you find in just about every game these days. The one player missions are challenging and you have to play them to unlock all the boats for multiplayer. The mutliplayer features various modes all of which are pretty good. There's nothing like blowing up my roomate's ship w/ a torpedo. The key to remember w/ Blood Wake is it's a vehicular combat game on water nothing more nothing less. This game isn't groundbreaking but it is fun. I would say that unless you know for sure you want this game to go out and rent it first to see how you like it. Just remember that you won't have access to all the multiplayer boats until you unlock them in the one player missions. Overall, this is a good game that belongs in the upper tier of X-Box titles.

Best Deals for Blood Wake (xbox)

Based in England, where games come out after the US sometimes, i get to see the feedback before a game hits the shelves here.

On this occasion I feel an injustice has been done by some to this game, giving less than avaerage marks in some areas.

What you see is what you get on the box, the water effects, which set this game apart in the graphical sense, are spectacular. It is worth getting a copy of this game to see what an X-box is capable of doing. The game plays like a dream, the water dynamics rock! See your boat pile up on rocks and two others pile onto your craft, has to be seen! The sound effects are a little weak, but the music a great soother with 'choons' from China!

Order sea sickness pills when playing as you will need them!

Track down a used copy and relish the bargain you have acquired. Could last a lifetime this game! Very, very underated, could have great potential as an xbox live game!!!

Honest reviews on Blood Wake (xbox)

"Bloodwake" is a good looking, speedy boat combat game with that groovy Asian flavor. Story is typical revenge revenge revenge stuff, but it works well and features competent voice acting. The game itself features some very good visuals, particularly in terms of the water mechanics. Some of this goodness is slightly lessened in my opinion by goofy boat physics, particularly when your raft gets knocked into the air. The framerate is solid overall, there are a lot of nice details to see and plenty of things to blow up with a variety of guns, missles, and torpedoes. Control of the boats varies based on which craft you use but there is the real feeling of turning in water...somewhat slow, realistic, and requires you to modify the way you fight. Neat missions, a variety of cool weather conditions, and several game modes and difficulty levels give "Bloodwake" decent replay value. Overall, worth your dough if you like boats with guns, car combat styled games, and/or straight forward mission based shooters

If you like a fast-pace shooting game then this will do fine for you. The graphics on the boats and water are very good and detailed. The first few missions are really easy (if you have talent in the game) but all of the sudden it gets like really hard and I still haven't beaten it. But if your up for the challenge then you should definitely buy this game.

Pros:

-great graphics

-challenging and interesting missions

-pretty good AI

-nice variety of weapons

-fun and competitive

Cons:

-really funky controls

-takes to many shots to blow up a boat

-sudden change of difficulty
