What Gamespot Users have to say about Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver

  • Rating:8.1

    Innovative, yes! Soul Reaver is a really creative way to make a game. It also was one I never could beat.

    Reaver was well made, back when Eidos was in a throne, rather than a hotseat. The game was well crafted with a system that allows Raziel to switch his existence between the real world and underworld, which depending on w... Read Full Review

    One of the highest production values ever for a videogame, and some other great features

    Soul Reaver is one of the most well put-together videogames ever made. It is by no means the best or the most fun, but everything the game does, it does very well. From the first cutscene, the whole, vast scope of th... Read Full Review

    The storyline and memorable characters back up a good action adventure game. A necessity for LOK fans.

    The second installment in the Legacy of Kain series is an action adventure game in the style of Tomb Raider that takes place over a millenium after the events in the first game, in which you played Kain, a nobleman turne... Read Full Review

    An amazing experience after all this time. I still get a kick out of it.

    You know my play by play review style? Well, I break games down into parts and then look at the whole at the end. Legacy of Kain is one of the top games for the PSX ever. Gameplay: I wasn't a big fan of the 3D adventu... Read Full Review

    Legacy of Kain : Soul Reaver is a brilliant game.

    My PC is pretty old, so I can't play very recent games (the most recent game I have is Black & White and it doesn't even run well, so...). I'm a fan of the Kain universe, but I only played Soul Reaver 2 and Blood Omen 2.... Read Full Review

    Soul Reaver worked itself out to a 9.3 on GameSpot's scale for me! That's pretty high, but this game owns to the bone. By the way, these reviews are in no way supposed to be good at all, just trying to get the point acr... Read Full Review

    Crystal Dynamics was given the task of developing the sequel to Blood Omen : Legacy of Kain. They've since taken the series far from its Zelda-esque roots and into a 3D platformer. The game takes place a millenium aft... Read Full Review
