6 / 10g026rAs a system, GURPS isn't what I'd use to run a Hellboy game. As source material, however, this is wonderful.
6 / 10DrFaustI went back to look at this book for some inpiration in creating BPRD agents. I was surprised by how little content there was towards making one's own BPRD game. It's mostly a grand summation of the comics. But it's still very nicely laid out.
3 / 10Simple ManGreat setting attached to rules that don't emulate that setting well.

Ratings Explanation

The following components make up a rating:

Ratings. The ratings that users enter into this index are each averaged into the final rating with a weight of between 0 and 4, with weight based on trust algorithms.

Reviews. Each review is averaged into the final rating with a weight of 8. Sometimes reviews can skew high, but they also display fan interest (or disdain) in a product.

Content. The average rating of each content--before its own bayesian weight is inserted--is averaged into the final rating. The weight of a content is equal to its own weight divided by the number of contents, and divided again if it only appears in a fraction of editions.

Bayesian Weight. A rating of 5.00 is inserted into the final rating with a weight of 35. This is an arbitrary weighting of the average rating that keeps things toward the center until they're better rated.
