In a world where Vampires are always teen heart throbs and don't actually kill people *cough* Twighlight *cough*, one video game franchise emerges... The Legacy of Kain. Not only do you get to kill an s#&$ ton of monstrous vampire offspring, you take their souls and in doing so, absorb their powers. from Amazon.com While an older game, this is one of a series that I would highly recommend to anyone that has interest in puzzle, platform, and narrative games. Controls are solid and story is great stand alone or in the scope of the entire Legacy of Kain series. from Amazon.com The game's first cinematic sequence shows why Kain casts you(Raziel) into the Vortex of the Dead. The reason he does so is because you grew your wings before him. from Amazon.com Soul Reaver was a good game. Everything about the game was good. from Amazon.com I still remember the entire game very vividly, and I remember going to work, telling my co-workers what a great "movie" I played, having to correct myself. This experience was the first that made me realize how close we were getting to the cinematic experience in gaming. The story is involving and enthralling, the voice-acting is almost perfect, and the graphics are some of the best in the life of the system. The sequels never quite did justice to this game, what I consider the original, (as Blood Omen was an entirely different type of game). from Amazon.com Having played and thoroughly enjoyed Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain, i remember running off after work to pick this up the day it hit store shelves. I was not disappointed. from Amazon.com Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver - Circa 1999 from Amazon.com The first time I played Soul Reaver, I was a freshman in high school, having limited experience in action/adventure games, or videogames in general. Right from the opening scenes, I was blown away by the game's powerful story and brutal execution scenes. from Amazon.com Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver was one of the first games made for playstation and to this day is still one of the bestSoul Reaver follows the story of Raziel, a badass vampire who's trying to get revene on his former master Kein. Raziel must travel through the spectral realm and the real realm defeating 9 vampire tribes to get stronger and defeat Kein. from Amazon.com I'm getting sick of everyone whining about Soul Reaver being to hard and impossible without walkthroughs or strategy guides. I'm only 14 and I beat the game without any help from Faqs, guides, walkthrough etc. from Amazon.com
