It's an over-the-shoulder shooter, so it's perfect for keyboard and mouse.

What no-one has told you yet is that it actually supports either keyboard + mouse OR gamepad, whichever you prefer.
Personally I prefer gamepad, as my first contact with the game was on the original xbox.
Also, this is one of the best action titles ever if you like blood and violence in your games, this game never gets old.

Thanks for the info, actually I think I would prefer gamepad as well so that's good news for me as I am actually using Xbox360 gamepad as well;)

hehe... sweet - have this and the sequel on steam... but will definitely repurchase at payday for a non-DRM version with soundtrack :)
Nice job guys!
On wishlist and hints to wife incoming :p

As a conclusion - it's WORTH IT to release a game that will not run on full details at launch. Even though a lot of people will be angry about having to tone things down just to get a bearable framerate, in the long run - the game ages a lot slower and thus remains profitable for an extended period of time.
The only worthy alternatives are to either release a game that looks well even on less modern hardware (in other words - go 2D) or make it look good now, while allowing it to scale nicely and look even better in the future (this is what Blizzard claims they are doing with their games...)
And speaking of Blizzard - am I the only one who finds people going 'OMG - it's so detailed, how will I ever afford the hardware for it !' over games like Starcraft 2 or Diablo 3 hilarious ? I mean - those people fail to realize that, by the time we will finally be able to get our hands on these, even their grandma will be able to run them ;).

As long as turning 3D audio on does not screw the dialog and turn the music off. I'd very much like to see that fixed. Otherwise I might just as well play the boxed BR2 I got off EBay.

I doubt they're gonna fix the code of the game itself. (If the problem is inherent to the game.)

There's no crime in hoping...
Also - I wonder if they apply the fanmade patch that seems to fix a lot and enhance the graphics...

Hummm... I'll pick this up. It's just a question of when as my wallet is stretched at the moment and that's likely going to be the case for quite some time. >_<

Gah! Where were you two days ago with this patch?
Gonna install this now even though I'm like halfway through the game.

Didn't think people would go for the sequel so soon ;P.
Also - tell me how's your sound with and without the patch. I don't know if the issue was X-fi specific or not but no music during the game and sometimes no voices during the cutscenes were annoying as hell.

Oh this is only for Bloodrayne 2? :(

Yep. Don't worry, though - no loss, no gain. Still a great game, isn't it ?
