The Warcry News Network has published their <a href="http://www.warcry.com/scripts/columns/view_sectionalt.phtml?site=15&id=117&colid=3170">Preview </a>of <a href="http://www.troikagames.com/">Troika's</a> upcoming Vampire: Bloodlines. The preview basically mentions details that most of us already know about, and more or less hypes the game. Here's a little something that caught my fancy, and a mention that the game is, indeed, a role-playing game.
<br>
<blockquote>The role-playing elements of the game are certainly not ignored, as the character could easily interact with numerous objects in the game world, and he could actively initiate dialogue with a number of the other nightly denizens around him. The dialogue is made up of the typical dialogue trees, but when spoken to, characters react with an astounding range of facial emotions and reactions. I had a laugh when the player character approached <b>one well-endowed female who made it a point to grab her breasts</b> before the character left. These are the sort of details that will make this game rise through the ranks of RPG’s.</blockquote>

It'll certainly make something rise in the pants of the teenagers playing this game.

I don't like these kids.
Theres something damn odd about an article that starts with the author speculating about killing his mom. Of course, she probably comes into 'his' basement a lot, so he probably feels generally violated.

Anyway. Needs some fact checking. And lame one liners about bath-sun-tanning just doesn't work. Needs proper metaphors.

A good read, I hadn't checked up on Bloodlines since last year. I still look forward to it.

You really should be checking Gamebanshee's E3 report in that case. Unless you're scared of potential spoilers that is. This is probably my #1 anticipated title (at least at the moment).
