Description of Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver

After this tantalizing movie introduction, you take control of Raziel in the spectral realm, where your new existence is explained to you. From there you enter the physical plane, ready to begin your quest for power and revenge. Raziel's combat moves are extremely brutal, as you'd expect from a vampire who has returned from the dead. When he finds a spear, Raziel gleefully stabs and slashes before he impales his foe, lifts it off the ground, and feasts on its soul. Doing so enhances Raziel's power, and devouring the souls of the rest of Kain's lieutenants is the only way to get the special abilities--scaling walls, phasing through gates, etc.--needed to reach Kain himself. While fun for adults, parents should take note: this game is definitely not suitable for kids. --John Cocking

Pros:

• Agile, fluid character animation and combat moves
• Beautiful scenery
• The Soul Reaver (think "vampiric lightsaber")
• Ability to glide using the tattered remnants of Raziel's wings

• Convoluted topography
• Sometimes awkward camera angles
• Lack of direction
