Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
Visually, the game was not spoiled, the graphics look the way the original is usually remembered. The shooting mechanics were slightly tightened, shooting became a little more pleasant. Several unpleasant places were changed, which made them easier and more pleasant to pass (I passed that very staircase on the first try). Even without counting the stuffy places from the original, the game felt easier on normal.
This only took me an afternoon to complete but this remastered version plays very well with controller support and updated graphics!
Good sound effects and gameplay but it's a little dated which is to be expected.
A few minor bugs here and there but nothing major.
Recommended!
Pretty much everyone is already saying it, faithful to the original and looks greak. About halfway through and nothing new broken and plenty of old things fixed.
I was a huge fan of the 2002 version and I'm super happy with the game's remaster. The changes and updates made it much more accomidating to modern gaming. huge quality of life upgrades. I cant praise the developers enough. I always thought the game looked great back then but the over haul to the graphics is also nice. Also getting rid of the scripted infections and the dissapering squad member bugs was so nice. Also ver nice touch on adding Naul,s corpse to the opening level. Loved that because you never see his fate in the 1982 movie (My Favorite Movie!). I Can't recommend this enough!
