Van Helsing: The Video Game

[retro_eidas]

My brother sent me this. VH game official site

When is this supposed to take place? That's a machine gun in the first cap. Where's the crossbow?

CGI doesn't look any better in the game.

I wonder as a reward for beating the game you get to watch that shirtless scene over and over? Not that I'm not doing that anyway with the trailer.

Dude. It's LXG. Remember the Victorian rocket car? VH takes place in the late 19th century and they used gatling guns in the Amer. Civil War, but that's a handheld he's using. Heh. Then again, I guess I shouldn't criticize. VH is fighting Frakenstein, Wolfman, Jeckyll/Hyde *and* Dracula (not to mention his brides) so he needs all the historical liberties he can get! Not that VH is based on historical accuracy. Ever. Even Bram Stoker's was fictional. Hugh's VH is just more fictional... and shirtless. On that note, he can be packing a light sabre for all I care, they just better not cut the gratuitous half-nekkid Hugh.

Oh God, that's the nightmare isn't it? I remember walking out of Kate & Leopold inexplicably annoyed. Halfway home I realized it was because they cut the bathtub scene. I'm still pissed. I didn't sit all the way through that to NOT see bath!Hugh, damnit!
