One of my favorite games of all time. I remember my tradition as a kid was going to Movie Gallery on Halloween and renting this to play on Halloween night. The moody music, campy one liners, and solid combat that still really holds up today always keep me going back to this classic. I own on the OG Xbox and that's where it's stuck because it was an exclusive. We need GOG to preserve this, but I'm sure licenses are an issue. PLEASE GOG!!

Never watched the show when it originally aired. I had seen the movie, thought it was dumb and never bothered with the TV show. Rented this game upon a recommendation from a friend and really enjoyed the game. After being told the game was based off the TV show and not the terrible movie, I then watched the show. Liked both. Voice overs in the game were from the actors from the show, with the exception of Sarah. I forget who they got to replace her, but she did very well.
First game I got for the OG xbox and as a fan of the show, I cannot TELL you how good this game is, The Collective, the studio behind this and Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb knew what they were doing. The graphics were great and still hold up today, the combat was fluid, you have a slayers handbook full of special moves and a massive arsenal, you get to partake in scooby meetings in the library, fight icons like the Master, the dreamers, Angelus, Spike, the enemy variety is plentiful, getting to stake a vamp is so satisfying. the soundtrack scratches every itch and overall it's replayable. AND it's better than buffy: Chaos bleeds, don't get me wrong, I love chaos bleeds but the OG is the definitive slayer experience.
I love Buffy the show. And I never played the game ever. The 2002 game is awesome. I only watched the gameplay but I wanna play it. Like Buffy is such an icon and a legend show when we had VHS tapes. LETS GO BUFFY!
Love Buffy The Vampire Slayer show. i never actually got the chance to play any of the buffy games. and barely anyone is voting. i really want this game. i have hope that it will come to GOG. I am really hoping :(.
This was one of the best TV show tie-in games ever. Great story, easy controls and most of the original cast doing voice overs. Whilst many tie-in games feel rushed or fall short, this game oozed quality and was clearly developed by a team who cared about the end product.
I had a ps2 and no Xbox so while I got to play Chaos Bleeds and LOVED IT, I never got to experience this game. Would love to finally get to. Come on, give me my chance!
Those games also need your vote!

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.
