Soul Reaver Continued

User Rating: 7.9 | Soul Reaver 2 PC
Many remember Soul Reaver very fondly. I personally think it was one of the best games ever. First time i finished it i didnt even know about the additional vampiric powers that could be found all over the bloody place. You could become properly diabolically powerfull. The save system was original and there was a steep learning curve. The boss fights were orignal and incredibly satisfying.

Alas the second could not even begin to keep up. As a game its pretty good. The fighting is interesting but the only thing on the par with the original is the puzzle solving. To tell you the truth the one thing that drives this game is the story. The unbelievable voice acting and story are still among the very best out there. The first left you with questions and this one answered a few, twisted all your expectations, flipped you on your ass and left you wondering what's going to happen!?

Otherwise its fun to play but disappointing considering its predecessor had all the angles.
