Sizzon4568d ago

that would be great :)

Ahasverus4568d ago

Even if it's not amy, we need it, badly

I really don't see Amy leaving Naughty Dog to go back to Crystal Dynamics. So unless Sony buys the IP from Eidos...I mean Square, then there's no way she'll ever work on another legacy of Kain game. However, I think they can revive the franchise in the same way they did with Deus Ex. Just find a developer with the passion for the project.

Deus Ex 3, Thief 4, Hitman: Absolutions...The signs are there man.

"And accordingly we are left with the first bitter taste of that terrible illusion...Hope"

You never know...there were a few Legacy of Kain references in Uncharted 3, and one of the music tracks in the game sounded VERY similar to one used in Soul Reaver. So maybe Amy/ND is considering the possibility or gaining the rights to the series? She was the driving force behind most LoK games after all...so you never know...

Shame the image used is from the 2nd game :P
The LoK series were ALL awesome titles. The story and voice acting were always incredible. It would be wrong of Square Enix not to release a new game in this universe!

Tigerfist4568d ago (Edited 4568d ago )

This is a very interesting game.

I'd love to see a good sequel to LOK: Defiance.

In UK**

I've had this on the American PSN for quite a while. PLEASE REMAKE ALL OF THE LOK SE PLEASE!

F*** YES!

one of the few games that actually deserve a remaster! Soul Reaver next please!

Germaximus955d ago

sounds like it's just a port, not a remaster

lonewolf10955d ago

As Germaximus said it is more of a port than a remaster but at least they have controller support for it.

Bring it Back | Legacy of Kain

For GotGame's Bring it Back retrospective feature this week, the spotlight shines on the Legacy of Kain franchise.

FlavorLav011091d ago (Edited 1091d ago )

I’d love a current take on either Legacy or Kain Soul Reaver. Personally I have more memories spending time getting through all the pain in the ass puzzles of Soul Reaver, but really enjoyed the game and art style

Scissorman821091d ago

Pushing and pulling and flipping those blocks...:P

MWH1091d ago

The games did not break too many grounds with the gameplay and less so with the later installments, but the story was so good it qualifies as a high quality novel. To me it make up for everything else.

jukins1091d ago

Id want a remake or just a new game in the series. Went back and played this a few years ago , to me at least it didnt really age well

BlackIceJoe1091d ago

I've been wanting this for years, but you need to make sure Amy Hennig is part of the series, because she was a huge part of the series in the past.

TheHan1091d ago

Legacy of Kain is badass. Ahead of its time, then they went in a completely off beat direction, go back to what made the first one so great. Blood Omen Kains legacy is the best one, went down hill after reaver.
