Dec 23rd 2010 5:13PM (Joystiq)The atmosphere was so unique and hasn't been toppled even with advanced graphics of later games. A lot of that was thanks to Steve Henifin and his amazing audio work as well as the unmatched in anyway voice acting. I would pay any sum of money for a full GOOD remake. Not a "re-imagining" or a shitty reboot but a REMAKE.
The Soul Reaver games were fantastic in every way too. If I recall correctly Soul Reaver was the first game to have dynamic audio that flowed and transitioned based on events in game. The warping between dimensions causing an environmental effect was also revolutionary and far ahead of its time.
The complete narrative from Blood Omen to Defiance is so gripping and grand. If you are willing to play through them and give them full attention and immerse yourself you are in for a breath taking experience. Everything - the audio, design and experience is top notch.
I would advise any "gamer" who is worth their stuff to play through these games. Sadly they have become a bit forgotten and over shadowed by Final Fantasy VII and other lark.
So please, Silicon Knights - sort out the legal bullshit and get working on "Blood Omen". Again.
