Based on the new blockbuster movie, Van Helsing is a monster hunter. Not a particular monster hunter, but one that wants to rid the world of all evil. You will be fighting such things as Frankenstein's monster, Dracula, WolfMan and many more. Van Helsing in a third person action game. Basically that pretty much sums up the game, it doesn't promise anything it isn't. What you get is a monster killing action game with the characters from the game. Its not got any original idea's so those of you looking for a revolutionary type game will have to go elsewhere but if your expecting fast paced action and fighting then you won't be disappointed. The plot basically follows that of the movie and so is a linear based game. Unlike some movie games like lord of the rings, it doesn't feature any cut scenes from the movie, it does however recreate some scenes with games own 3D engine. It does feature the voice of Hugh Jackman (the actor who plays Van Helsing in the movie). The 3D character of him doesn't look bad either. The camera angles for third person games have never been brilliant, looking back at the Devil May Cry series for example the fact that you can't choose your camera angle has always been a bit of a pain. The same camera style is true for Van Helsing as well unfortunately. It however not such a problem that it stops you from playing, its merely an occasional nuisance if the camera zooms along way out to get you and your enemy in shot or if you go behind n object that blocks your view of the surrounding area.
