Although it's a fun, challenging game it's not the original. However you do get to play as different characters from the series. Like the original there's multi-universe play. Good graphics, hard levels, but the voices and sometimes child like dialogue are a little of putting. Your killing demons not playing freeze tag. The Willow dialogue is the worst. That being said, definitely worth the money. I'll replay mine!

I absolutely love this game! It's great to play with just enough challenge. The walkthroughs online help as well. Also, when I'm stressed, it's really fun to just kill vampires! It releases a lot of tension. I would say the last level is my least favorite. You have to run around in a gazillion circles which makes it more stressful and slightly less enjoyable. The best levels on the game (for killing vampires) are: Level 1: The Magic Box Level 5: Downtown Sunnydale and if you're up for having a big-bad challenge at the end... Level 10: Sunnydale Mall (GREAT FOR USING MAGIC) Level 11: Sunnydale Zoo Basically, if you're a Buffy fan you'll love it and if you're not, you'll still love it. Just remember to check out the walkthroughs online on Gamespot. They make things a lot less confusing. The graphics in the game, as far as I can tell, are great! The vampires basically dust in the action they're currently in. I once killed one as it was kicking me and it dusted beginning in that position! It's very realistic. Also, when throwing vampires/other demons or when you're being throw, you can smash into things and break them (if they're wood) or shake them (if they're a lamp). The sound effects in the game were also great. Everything sounded different whether its falling into a chair, staking a vampire, punching them, or hitting them with a shovel. Some of the voiceovers in the game for Buffy's character can get very repetitive! Beware that by the time you're done with this game, you'll have memorized her "puns". Willow's as well. I feel that because SMG and AH were unable to do voice recordings, the actresses who did theirs did less. Everyone else had a nice selection of responses and hearing NB and JM on the game was really great. Overall, I love the game and will continue to love it! Take my advice, this is a game you want.Read full review
Love this game! Disc is perfectly workable on my old Gamecube. A Buffy fan cult classic, I am so grateful to have a copy. Slipcover was reprinted and low quality (with typos) but the disc itself was flawless.

If you love Buffy the Vampire Slayer, you're definitely going to love playing this game! A great thing about this game is that at the beginning it explains how you do certain moves, open doors, and things like that. Also the voices of the characters are authentic. Spike, Giles, Xander, Tara, Ethan Rayne, and Faith are all voiced by the actual actors. The actresses Sarah Michelle Gellar and Alyson Hannigan (Buffy and Willow) were not available to do the voice overs, but the characters in the game are still very very well done, very close to the original actresses, you can barely tell the difference. Two characters that you get to see again is Sid the Dummy and Kakistos. The levels get harder and harder during the game, and sometimes it gets a little tricky to complete one of them. On average it takes between 1 hour - 2 hours to complete a level. During different levels you can also play different characters, you don't get stuck with playing as Buffy the whole game. And as you beat each level you unlock bonus features like interviews and voice overs from the actors. Give it a try!Read full review
I bought this game because I am a huge fan of BtVS tv show. I'm still upset it went off air! when I found out it was a gamecube game, I bid on it. I don't play many video games, I'm a busy mom. You get to play the various characters - not your choice, they are chosen as the game progresses. it's cool because they each have different abilities. the downfall is that I am stuck on a certain level right now and can't figure out how to get out, very frustrating- therefore I haven't had a chance to play all characters yet. still love it!
