It's too bad that The legacy of kain series isn't exactly very popular,many of it's games are great and
the series has such a complex story, that it even
surpasses Metal gear. But this game is an exception...

- In this game you play the dark character Kain,who
is "bad guy" of the series. But he is not just a
regular villain, infact he is one of the coolest villains i have EVER seen,and trust me, i have been
a gamer for along time.

-Ok, here we go... Let's start with the graphics. This
game has awful grapics, The enviornments look very
bland and boring, once you get out of the city, the
enviornments are slightly more better, but still, not by much. When i first say Kain in this game (after i have played both LOK Soul Reaver and the 2nd one) i
couldn't believe that was kain, i mean his voice was
as cool as ever, but other than that, it was awful.
it looks like his skin is as soft and smooth like
a woman's, his eyes also look a bit...

THE GOOD:
good graphics,great fighting controls,awesome darkgifts
tricky bosses, forboding story line that delivers another notch into the legacy of kain twisted storyline

THE BAD:
Unfair fights(they will be charging and you cant hit them.)people go into walls(their half way in the wall.)short game about 6 hours of gameplay low replay value(but it does have a replay value unlke some other games)

SUMMARY:
you'll question soulsof the people who made this game as you go to attack when their charging up to do a very powerful attack and there atack does damage and yours doesnt. 11-12 chapters if i remember correctly not nearly as long as bolld omen 1 (which was a great game). the graphicerrors are annoying but manageble. youll find your self jumping out of awindow and falling forever surrouned by a white background

THE GOOD:
Fun using abilites such as mist and charm people(control them)and super jumping and gliding down of rooftops.sucking blood is fun,like it how you can get a lot of different weapons.cool details and voices,
and its fun being a vampire!

THE BAD:
battles and blood sucking get abit repetitive,so far thats it.

SUMMARY:
I am really enjoying this game, i didn't think i would but it's pritty cool.It's just soo cool being a vampire.If you liked the soul reaver games add this 1 to your collection.But seriously all games battles get repetitive....even...devil may cry..
so i don't think there's to much bad here.
Believe me if u wish, if you don't thats just fine,
read my review and go with your(killer)instinct.

THE GOOD:
Sometimes the levels look awesome. The animations are cool. The voice acting is as good as it gets.

THE BAD:
Monotinous puzzles my little sister could solve. The soundtrack is one song. The animations aren't cool after the tenth time you've seen them. The fight controls suck. No exploring. Linear levels.

SUMMARY:
The only way to survive in this game is to kill everybody, innocent people included. It sounds cool, but it's not. It gets old fast. The dark gifts aren't that cool and you don't really get a choice on when you use them. EX: You can either super jump across that ravine or stand there all day like an idiot, because there's no other way around it.
The play controls are a big step back. You'll need an air sick bag, because you're going to get dizzy. If you like to dodge things in a fight or jump around like you might be a vampire, buy another game, because in this one you can't dodge for nothing and you...

THE GOOD:
Graphics are pretty cool, love the way the levels look.

THE BAD:
Glitches making game slow down when entering certain areas, like disk is trying to catch up with how fast you are going.

SUMMARY:
I love this game! I enjoy the dark gifts, especially the jump. I like Kain's bad attitude, and enjoy how I get to massacre everything in my path! I also like the Eternal Prison level! What fun! If you like Eidos games like Soul Reaver and Tomb Raider, you may like this as well! I also like the way Kain hisses at his enemies!

THE GOOD:
The good was the storyline. And the voice acting was great as well

THE BAD:
The bad was sometimes it did freeze up during the game so you may want to save when possible..the only other downside is sometimes the voices on the cut scenes do not coincide with the character movements

SUMMARY:
This was a great sequel to the first game. There is a tremendous amount of blood sucking which is great to see, well at least for me...also there are innocent people that are tied up or imprisoned along the way you can easily dispose of and kain lets out a sarcastic laugh as I did...the puzzles are fairly easy to solve..also the environment's you play in are very detailed and the weapons that you are able to use allow a large array of different attacks. The stealth attack is my favorite of all....All around this is a great game to buy

THE GOOD:
Fighting system rocks. Dark gifts rock. Storyline is solid. Good graphics. Killer stealth kill animations.

THE BAD:
Too few to mention. The good's definitly outweigh the bads.

SUMMARY:
Great game

THE GOOD:
Graphics and story line are very well written for a bloodfest!

THE BAD:
It actually locked up once on the PS2. I did not think that could happen? So beware of sound glitches.

SUMMARY:
It is one of those games that are so bloody and so good that you know you should not play it but you do anyway. I love the blood sucking action. I get a little chuckle each time I witness it. But thats my twisted humor showing. Finally! Get it, you will be glad you did. Soul Reaver 2 is better though!

THE GOOD:
Alot of blood .Great story .Good graphics .Good battle system .Interesting characters .Great voice acting .

THE BAD:
Many glitches .A little short .Control setup is annoying .Cut scene problems .

SUMMARY:
Definatily get it if you're a fan of the Legacy of Kain series .The game is sort of a dissapointment in terms of gameplay but in story it is better than expected .

The game could have been very good but there are some nagging problems .Some cutscenes are very screwed up .Sometimes the sound isn't in sync with the actual movement of the characters mouth and their other movements which makes some moments very odd looking .This takes alot away from the mood .The game also slows down and freezes alot .Sometimes the word loading even appears when the game gets very behind .The controls are also annoying .You must use the setup they give you so it can't be changed to fit your style .The game is also a lttle short .
