Legacy of Kain domain registered, portfolio artwork found

Square Enix has registered the web domain 'WarForNosgoth.com', which quite clearly references the world of Nosgoth. That planet is in the center of strife between vampires, humans and other things.

Some concept pieces from a 'videogame animation pitch' have been found. They come from Passion Pictures artist Richard Buxton. There's plenty of timeline for war in Legacy of Kain.

When OXM asked Buxton about the artworks he said he was "not allowed to talk about that." The last entry was Legacy of Kain: Defiance which released in 2002.

A fan over on NeoGAF has put together a quick summary of possible time periods this 'War For Nosgoth' could take advantage of; there's plenty to choose from. It was rumoured last year that Tomb Raider's Crystal Dynamics was sniffing around a reboot of Soul Reaver, starring Raziel.

When it was first released on Playstation I had to play it as I sold it in the store I managed. I have to say the game was,well, "okay". A few gameplay mechanics were rough, and it looked just "alright" and hence garnered rather average reviews.
Now it seems to have acquired a new audience and has become popular. Go figure...

Then again, the same can be said of "Silent Hill", which was considered pretty good when released (most glaring criticism was the alarm bell when creatures appeared close), but not fantastic.

Played Soul Reaver on Dreamcast, loved every moments on that game, well, almost all, hated the underwater brother. :D

I quite liked that section. Good to be different:)
As for the Dreamcast...man, I tried so hard to pre-sell that, knowing full well it would be a fail in the long run.
