- Sega and Namco? Well, kind of. This game is good, but not on the level of Sega or Namco's best.

The game's credits list Vampire Night as published by Namco Hometek and developed by Namco, Sega, and WOW Entertainment. One would think that something produced by the great minds of these fine companies would be nothing less than perfection, but that's sadly far from the truth. The game's development was handled almost completely by WOW Entertainment, the group that's responsible for the House of the Dead series, and despite the collaborative efforts from two arcade powerhouses, the end result is a product that's less than either Sega or Namco's best.
Gameplay
Vampire Night is still a good game, though. It's just not a spectacular one. If you've played any of Sega or Namco's arcade light gun games you pretty much know what to expect here. This is a very generic, straightforward, light gun shooter that can be played with either the GunCon, GunCon 2or Dual Shock controller (we don't suggest playing it this way).
When Sega and Namco first announced that they were collaborating on an arcade light gun game, fans of both companies couldn't help but be excited. Two of the greatest developers of arcade games in the world working together on a game seemed like a sure-fire recipe for success. Sadly, Vampire Night isn't quite the masterpiece that one would think would come out of such a fine partnership.
It is by no means a bad game and is actually a top-notch light gun game for the most part. But while you do see strong influences from each company involved in this title, you can't help but feel that Vampire Night is more of a step back in the genre as far as gameplay is concerned.
What you have here is a very basic light gun shooter that doesn't do anything that expands upon what we've seen in previous games by both Namco or Sega, including Time Crisis II, House of the Dead or even Virtua Cop. In fact, the game even lacks a lot of the depth that you'll find in those aforementioned titles.
Even still, it's a fun and enjoyable light gun game. As is the case with most games in the genre it's fairly short, but makes up for it with the fact that it easy to pick up and play again at any time since you never really have to devote too much time into it to get a reward of some kind. If you already have Time Crisis II and are looking for another light gun game to play on your PlayStation 2, you might want to give this a look. Otherwise, it's more of a weekend rental.

Player Reviews. Average score: 3.6 out of 5 (based on 14 ratings with 2 reviews) Vampire killer. It's a classic game, in all of its concepts. You're a half-vampire trying to destroy the evil empire on Earth, killing vampires, zombies, men-wolves and many other monsters.
Nov 29, 2014 · Vampire Night stars two gunslinging vampire hunters named Michel and Albert. The game begins as they start an assault on a dark castle inhabited by the undead, and along the way uncover a grander and all encompassing plot. It’s pretty schlocky and overacted.
