<a href=http://www.terra-arcanum.com>Terra Arcanum</a>'s Chief Guy <b>Dark Underlord</b> (also of <a href=http://www.duckandcover.cx>DAC</a> fame) wrote a <a href=http://www.terra-arcanum.com/index.php?section=family&content=reviews&id=bloodlines_review>review</a> of Troika's vampirey action RPG Bloodlines. There's no overall rating or score, but Dark Undies seemed to like the game well enough by and large.<blockquote>One of the more unique aspects of Bloodlines is that it's set in modern-day Los Angeles. Countless RPGs before it have all been set in fantasy lands far, far away. Bloodlines is one of a rare breed of RPGs to break this classic mould and with it, comes some modern-day fun. One of the skills you can learn is hacking. With this skill (technically they're called feats in the game), you can break into computers with a simple text interface (almost reminiscent of the old text-adventures) and read e-mail, access secure directories or use computer commands to unlock nearby electronic safes or disable security systems. Being a modern world, there's no shortage of computers either, with plenty of them offering a little bit more of the game to explore.</blockquote>Yup, that's two of my favourite things in the game: non-fantasy setting and intelligent implementation of computers in a modern game.

That's just because no one here liked his CD. He wakes up every morning and sheds a tear when he thinks of the emotional scars. :cry:

I give it two clean pairs of underpants and a skid mark.

All I can say is, come into Anarchy Online, and I'll put a jihad on your ass!

DU has been involved with so many webpages it's hard to keep track.
I could make a web-site that lists them...
