Buffy The Vampire Slayer Critic Reviews

I'd say there are about 15-20 hours of play here, but I'd probably double that just for me as I kept replaying so many of the boards due to the fights I got in (and that next to last mission that I so vehemently despise).

A game whose high-resolution graphics, expansive levels and creatively devised puzzles will delight Xbox owners everywhere.

It's just plain awesome to kick the head of a zombie and watch it thrash away on the floor.

Buffy is exceptionally well balanced and designed. The control is nicely responsive, it looks absolutely fabulous, and there's a tremendous amount of gameplay variety.

Buffy fans can breathe a huge sigh of relief. Not only is the game great, but with Buffy still hotter than a witch's tit in a brass bra, you can bet a sequel is imminent.

You don't have to be a fan of the show to enjoy this action-packed game that, aside from looking really good, is both fun and highly addictive.

For gamers who dig various deadly weaponry, Buffy: the Vampire Slayer is packed with a diversity of vampire-icing thingies, most of which have to be handled with care or they can be quite deadly to you as well.

Even if you know nothing about Buffy, the TV series, know this about Buffy, the Xbox video game: it's unquestionably the best beat'em-up for the system.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is a classic beat-em-up in the Final Fight style, with a few of its own twists thrown in.

The game's main strength is in the way it seamlessly delivers both fighting-game-style combat and puzzle solving while telling a great story using in-game cinemas.

It's a fun beat 'em up that perfectly captures the look and feel of the television show.

A fan's dream come true. The game is true to the series, and will quench any fan's thirst for a video game based on the series. I recommend that most action fans look into BUFFY. Even with some of the annoying faults, the game isn't to be missed.

Fans will love it and those who've never seen the show may even find themselves converts after playing a few hours of this slay-a-thon.

Graphically sharp and combined with gameplay that has been similarly honed, Buffy is one of those rare titles that does the Xbox justice.

Video games based on TV franchises don't always live up to the shows that inspired them. Fortunately, Buffy the Vampire Slayer is an exception.

If you like beat'em ups, horror themed games, and witty (though oft-repeated) one-liners, Buffy is the only stop on the Xbox express.

The combat system of Buffy the Vampire Slayer is just brilliant.

Admittedly there isn't a great variety of action-adventures on Xbox, but Buffy's fast-paced and entertaining gameplay puts it head and (rather shapely) shoulders above its limited competition.

While the fact that the game can be completed in 7-10 hours may turn off some tastes, it is still an enjoyable 7-10 hours.

As vampire videogames go, Slayer doesn't suck.
