I never got to play the first Buffy game (since I don't own an XBox) so when they made another one for Gamecube I got it as soon as I could. I'm not dissapointed. Aside from the camera issues I've come to expect from any third person game this was a great play experience.
The voice acting (with the painful exception of whoever they got to voice Willow) is good to great, and the sound from the environment is cool. The weapon system is neat (weapons degrade over time) and the sheer variety is mind-boggling. The characters are great (yes, even Sid the dummy from Season 1) although I wish they had made Faith and Buffy's moves a bit different.
The multiplayer mode is well-developed and helps to add some replay value.
Overall, if you are a Buffy fan I highly reccommend this title, but even if you aren't it's worth a play.

Forget Mario Sunshine. It's time to check out the dark side. Finally, GameCube owners can go at night and stalk the undead in Vivendi Universal's Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Chaos Bleeds. Developer Eurocom has upped the gameplay in this sequel to last year's surprisingly good Xbox-only Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and the result is another ghoulishly fun creepfest.
BtVS: Chaos Bleeds (Gamecube)
Strengths: Weapon system, sound effects, multiplayer mode
