~at last, it comes : Soul Reaver 3 - Defiance
11.18.03

~omgoodness.. Oo if the date of release for this one holds true, then all my other choices must be put on the backburner.. i cannot rush this upcoming experience ~ time will stand still, the clouds shall part - & my return to Nozgoth will be of priority.. >=)

~the visuals look very impressive; i'm a fan for the series, the 2nd being my favorite thus far - the ambience is both alluring & mysterious, held together by the rich story of formidable beings - vampires, mortals & magicians alike.. =D if you like gothic/horror type games, then this is truly a must..

...

~can you tell i like this series yet? ;)

~crystal dynamics has done an excellent job thus far - i suspect that both versions will take advantage of the hardware & will look very close graphically.. *ponders* being a stickler for the best possible experience - i may decide to go with the x-box version, for crisper graphic detail.. =.

~indeed, Defiance is supposed to include all the extras that were originally left out of sr2 (fighting, weaponry & magic..); still uncertain as to the puzzle-solving aspect though.. =/ from the clips seen, sr3 looks to be heavily involved in action - no doubt that puzzles shall be present, though not as much as say - sr1 (sr1's puzzles = ouch.. Oo) i'm curious to play with the new fighting system; word through the gaming grapevine has it that it's more intricate than sr2 ~ good stuff to look forward to, Kain is going to be a delight to play.. =)

...

~hopefully - the story will finally tie everything about all the former games of the series together.. =.
