    It's just this close (fingers a couple of inches apart) to being one of the deepest and best-designed single-player adventure games of all time.
  2. Adrenaline Vault

    With its amazing sound work, stunning musical score and easy to use control scheme, about the only thing you can complain about in this release is the length.
  3. GamePro
    70
    Takes as many steps back as it does forward, and ends up teetering precariously over the brink of being a disappointment.

    As much as i love the LOK series, Soul Reaver 2 made me a bit sad. The lighting was REALLY bad, Puzzles were way to easy. But there were comebacks. The graphics Amazing for a early 2000s game, Although the game runs a little shorter then the first game it is more linear driven (I wanted to see more of the world) the areas were just beautiful and it really feels like your in the game. The music, you can only hear it if you pay close attention, because it blends itself SO well with the game. If you are fans of the series will love it, COD fans won't understand it, and Artists will try to draw Raziel and his Soul Reaver.… Expand

    It's like watching a boring British soap opera. 3 hours it took me to get out of the tutorial area. Some characters never shut up , and there's no way to skip scenes. The graphics are muddy, and you'll strain your eyes trying to see in poorly lit areas, no matter the brightness setting on your T.V. I expected more from a Kain series game.… Expand
