Soul Reaver writer and director, and Uncharted’s writer, Amy Hennig, has mentioned that Soul Reaver wasn’t designed as a sequel to Blood Omen in a fantastic retrospective on PS Blog. The game was originally known as The Shifter.
Vampire games are making a comeback of late, and gamers hoping this is a new trend should look back at the 7 best vampire games ever made.
What is a list? A miserable little pile of scribbles.
A Best Vampire Game list and no Bloodborne. A bold choice, indeed.
No Blood Omen? Even today it's one of my favourite vampire games. We could really do with a release on modern platforms.
I really enjoyed Vampyr. The combat is a little clunky and could use some work. However, the story, characters, dialog. setting, and pretty much everything else in the game is great.
Check out our review of the dark fantasy classic, Soul Reaver!
Bring the series back Crystal Dynamics. Didn't realize Amy Henig worked on tihs one thats dope
I’ve been wanting to replay this for over a year. It’s been on “Coming Soon” status on GOG forever. Have no idea what they’re waiting for.
The director of the infamously scrapped Star Wars 1313 has joined the team working on Amy Hennig's upcoming Star Wars game at Skydance New Media.
I was at the announcement for it at E3. They had us in a side hall conference room that was just a couple rows of benches. When the gameplay and video demo started the side walls looked like windows that showed us dropping down levels in our ship to 1313.
Glad he’s onboard, 1313 was so ahead of its time from what was shown. This bodes well for her game. Looking forward to what they are cooking up.
After 1313 cancellation and the new trilogy I think it's safe to say Disney was the worst thing that could have happened to star wars
Well I hope the protagonist is not an angry, bitter woman, who is mad at the world and despises the need for men, or men themselves.
These games are crying out to be HD-ified (it's in the dictionary, look it up). Perhaps the fact that this article has suddenly popped up from nowhere suggests an upgrade is in the offing? Or even a bona fide sequel!
I'd love a new Soul Reaver game, or even another Blood Omen!
Or at least a proper remake of them with a new engine like Halo CE Anniversary.
thank God the Almighty it was part of the Legacy.
"..have some of the best writing ever seen in videogames"
so true.. so true.
i consider myself one of the most fortunate to have experienced the extraordinary world of Legacy of Kain and the unparalleled performances of the voice actors and story writer Amy henning not forgetting music composers and everyone else who made this unforgettable gem possible.
I remember playing Soul Reaver on the PlayStation 1 and I never ended up finishing the game. Then a year later I got it for the Dreamcast and I love to the game so much better, the graphics were so much smoother and the frame rate ran at 60 frames per second instead of 30 frames per second like on the PlayStation.
Legacy of Kain is one of the best franchises in gaming history
