Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines Preview

To summarize, we think Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines will be a gratifying experience to anyone who's out for some serious blood-sucking and FPS/third-person action. The deep RPG setting seems to fit the game perfectly. White Wolf's rule system is complex, but fairly flexible to accommodate the needs of all gamers, regardless of their experience in pen-and-paper role-playing. Visually, things seem to be coming along just fine, showing off the impressive possibilities of Valve's Source engine.

There were some recent rumors indicating that the game would be pushed back for a release in Spring 2005. Luckily the launch date is still set for Fall 2004, so you can hone your bloodlust and start sharpening your fangs for your impending Embrace.
