Beat em Up

The Beat 'em Up genre for the original Xbox represents a classic arcade-inspired style of action gaming where players focus on intense, close-quarters combat against waves of enemies. These games are typically set in various environments, such as city streets, dojos, or mystical realms, where players use hand-to-hand combat and basic weapons to defeat multiple foes advancing from all directions. Known for their straightforward gameplay and high-paced action, Beat 'em Ups on the Xbox often feature linear progression through levels, with the primary objective being to clear the screen of enemies before advancing. Beat 'em Ups prioritize simple control schemes, usually consisting of light and heavy attacks, grapples, and jump attacks, making them easy to learn yet challenging to master. Many games in this genre also incorporate cooperative multiplayer, allowing two or more players to team up and fight together. The genre is well-loved for its dynamic, chaotic gameplay and has a nostalgic appeal, drawing from arcade roots with games like "Double Dragon" and "Final Fight." On the original Xbox, the genre was reinvigorated with titles like Spikeout: Battle Street and Kung Fu Chaos, delivering engaging combat experiences with a modern edge.

BloodRayne

Game Overview

The game begins in 1933, in a place where it appears that the people believe in vampires, as all the doors and windows show crosses. It shows a man and woman running down a street. The woman trips, and the man pauses long enough to help her up, only to be dragged into a dark alleyway by a chain. His head is thrown from an alley at the woman's feet, with Rayne walking calmly up to the woman. The woman seemingly breaks down crying, but in fact only hides her face to reveal she is in fact a vampire. After a brief fight, Rayne decapitates her and then takes off before a small army of vampires tries to catch her off guard. She drops a grenade on their position as she leaves. On top of the buildings, two mysterious men, who were watching the events unfold the whole time, are discussing their reason for being here. One reveals they are here to recruit Rayne, who is trying to find where her father is. The other member does not want a Dhampir with the Brimstone society, regardless of the fact that she is only half-vampire and has fewer weaknesses, as the Society is trying to rid the world of Vampires(and presumably people with Vampire blood in them. Eventually they agree to recruit Rayne, and leave a necklace with their symbol on it as seen on the game cover.

BloodRayne 2

Game Overview

Rayne is seen entering a library called Blood Library, with a few Nazis inside. She finds that Brimstone members have been slaughtered and realizes her vampiric father Kagan is here, acting as an influential Nazi. Rayne rushes to confront him for revenge for her mother's rape and the murder of her family, and Kagan mocks Rayne by saying he does not recognize her, as he sired numerous offspring that way. He finds what he was looking for, called the Vesper Shard. Knowing Rayne still wants to kill him, he then brings Professor Trumain up from the floor, strangled by his own small intestine, but barely alive. Kagan knows that they know each other, and that Trumain "stole" yet another offspring from him. While Kagan mocks Rayne, Truman pulls out a detonator, first giving time for Rayne to run, then detonating the grenade, killing himself and seemingly taking Kagan with him. Denied the pleasure of killing him herself, Rayne spends the 60 years after the war seeking out and destroying Kagan's offspring.[5] These offspring, Rayne's half-siblings, have banded together to form a group called the Cult of Kagan. The Cult has created the Shroud, a substance that can render sun rays harmless to vampires, allowing them to surface at all times of the day, and which twists nature into a nightmarish perversion trees dying almost instantly, grass catching on fire, corpses twitching. Using the Shroud, the Cult has pledged to create a new era of vampiric supremacy, continuing Kagan's legacy.
