Hi yeah, I'm new, most of you might know me from PLi as WinstonIsPyshcotic. As Abi knows (I hope this Abigail is pink_oracle from PLi) Well she knows I've pestered her about BR for a long time, and I appreciate her putting up with me and accurately answering my many questions.

Very Happy

Pros are atmosphere, and the game has a lot of it. Very creepy very gothic. The Louisiana levels are so creepy with the swamp water all around, the flooded graveyard is great. And in the Argentine levels you get a real sense of doom as you go deeper and deeper into the military base. By the time you’re in the mines with all the monsters and the army guys are screaming in terror you really start to wonder if you’ll ever get out.
And the German castle is the best with the feral vampires jumping out at you from all over. And one minute there’s a little bat floating around your head and suddenly it drops on you and it’s the size of a German Shepard!

Also you get to fire rocket launchers and feed on the blood of Nazis who cry out “I don’t want to die!”

Cons are. Hmmmm. Well the graphics are a bit old now. Rayne’s face is a little bit weird. Plus the controls are a bit Resident Evil. You have to press an action button to get Rayne to turn around. If you press back she just walks backwards. But all of that you just get used to.

I think the M comes from the fact that just about every time Rayne gets hit in the back she calls the enemy a fucker or a bastard. There’s some more colourful language in Rayne’s conversations also.

Well thats ok for me, the language and all (I think anyone would say that to someone who hits them in the back). Yeah I hear that every single day on the bus. Ugh. Like, some kid was going psycho or something. And he was sitting near the window giving random things that were passing us by, going f--- you and givng people the finger. Ha he gave me the middle finger. All you can really do is ignore it, because what can you really do about it?

I can deal with that. Being the person that she is, I imagine her having a "colorful vocabulary"
Please tell me anything else that she does that may be questionable to some parents.

(sorry about such a long post)

Well it’s all a bit sexual the way she feeds. She’ll jump on top of people and make moaning noises. It could be seen as risqué.

I have noticed that. If it truely bothers me I can mute it, but that's the least of my Mom's concerns. If she let me have the Sims I imagine that that wouldn't bother her. She laughs about stuff like that sometimes. That isn't really that big.

I was wondering. During gameplay Rayne's health bar is on the left, so what is the diamond shaped thing on the other side with the ring around it?

That's the powers HUD. On top of the diamond is an arrow which is your rage meter. When the arrow turns totally red and glows you can go into BloodRage mode. (More powerful attack power, less damage sustained and slows down time.)

You've got three powers on the diamond.
Dilated Perception. Rayne processes visual information so fast it’s as if time has become slower. She can dodge bullets, sneak up on people, attack fast enemies with greater ease and outrun explosions.
Aura Vision. See enemies in the dark as a colour.
And for the last mission in the game Rayne inherits the ability to zoom in for sniping. I only found one occasion in the German mission to use this which is probably why it doesn’t appear in BR2.

I put BR on my Christmas list and a attachment of information about BR and I took some of your comments from PLi to present to her, and she said she'd think about it. Which I don't know what that means.

It means you’re wearing her down. Keep on at it! Tell her you can’t really think of anything else to put on your Xmas list because all you really want is BR. Tell her how happy you are that you’ll be able to participate in all the conversations now. Tell her you’re so excited you have to burn off energy by vacuuming the house.
