Ive heard a bit about the legacy of kain video games. Although ive never tried them, ive always been a fan of the vampire adventure/action/rpgs. Its too bad that vampire the masquerade is the only vampire type game on gog. Is it possible to find the legacy series on gog?

Legacy of Kain series is owned by Square Enix.

Well, mate, like anything else - if they can get an agreement to do so, GOG'll sell it to us ^.^

Looking at this page, it seems to me that licensing for these titles is a bit of a nightmare. It seems like five different publishers own or have owned rights to the games. I shudder to think how complex contracts to sell them here might be. Also, I might be wrong, but it seems to me that at the moment Sony's the only company selling them, and I don't think they like sharing their exclusives.

Crystal Dynamics was eaten by Eidos, and Eidos was eaten by Square Enix. So it seems to me Square Enix would own them.

Of course I could be completely wrong because these things can turn into a complete cluster fuck.

As a LoK fanatic I can confirm that Square-Enix owns the franchise. Blood Omen 1 and Soul Reaver 1 are available on PSN and the PC collection of four games (without BO1) is still sold here in Poland.

After reading it i think the chances are slim. You'd have a better chance pulling the titanic with a rowboat.

lucky for you, i just checked amazon and gamestop and they're fucked. The only hope is that gog gets them. I'd really like a series of games like that released.

I bought BO1 last week on PSN and it's great to play it again. Too bad the PC version is a bitch to run un modern systems.

The other games can also be a pain in the rear. Soul Reaver is just infuriatingly unstable on my computer and some graphical effects won't show up.
