I believe this is near the beginning of the game. Dialogue choices, story, a few of the main characters are shown.

I was pleasantly surprised to find a very familiar voice during the first cut scene. Ten awesome points to whoever can guess the man's name and the role he is popularly known for in the gaming world.

Since I edited it out. Not sure how the men upstairs feel about Youtube videos on the front page. :)

I usually add a note for mods to cut/paste the youtube embed after jumps. So yeah, thanks.

One of the guys sounded like Hugo Weaving. Actually most of those voices sound familer but I can't place them.

I know I knew the voice but I had to check it out. It's indeed Kain. Edios needs to put out another Legacy of Kain game already.

His name is Simon Templeman. And he's awesomely awesome! You win the points, sir.

He'll always be Kain to me... :o

I'm actually looking for Soul Reaver 2, Blood Omen 2, and Defiance. I beat them(sans SR2), but would like to give them another go.

Ooooh, love Kain's voice.

The game looks very 'meh' to me though.

I'd much prefer another SR game, finally finish up the kick arse story.

I am really looking forward to this, a new game for the classic Bioware fans, seems to have everything in it that a Baldurs Gate fan could want.................I dont think this is going to wow the mainstream like Mass Effect but its nice to see Bioware are still making games for their original fan base, staying true to their roots if you will despite thier recent mainstream success

Considering it is a cinematic the characters could be far better animated and more life like.

It's stuff like this that reminds me why I dislike cutscenes so much. Derivative, pseudo-dramatic fluff.

I agree Rommel, unimpressive stuff. I'm hoping they're showing us the not very good stuff and saving the goods closer to release.

The combat looks like fun tho.

It was a cinematic. It was the fighting part of gameplay as much as it was a in game cut scene. If you notice a few times the use has to select a input at the bottom. That said, it looked prettier in Mass Effect. Not the dialogue wheel itself but the characters in the games talking parts. Maybe it's easier to do sci-fi.
