Old gem with a beautiful new shine
I'll start out with the summary: If you want to (re)play this game, this is hands down the version you want. Why? Well, if you've tried emulation, you already know that the Snowblind engine does not work well with emulators whatsoever. And you certainly don't want to play a game in muddy 480p on decrepit ancient hardware. Pros of this port: - Crisp, fluid framerate without any dips whatsover (unlike the original) - Properly scaled up resolution and the dimensions were changed to accomodate the fact you have the monitor right in front of you unlike the TV during console play. Frankly, it's a joy to look at what was achieved in this port. Great to see a remaster done right for a change. - MUCH faster load times. - Full controller support and customization, or play with mouse and keyboard - no idea how well that works, because why in the world would you not use a controller for a PS2 game? It's mildly annoying that the button prompts are exclusively for the Xbox controller, despite this being a PS2 game. Oh well, it's not rocket science to map the buttons as you want them and then it doesn't matter anymore. Cons of this port: - Very minor clipping errors and graphical glitches in the inventory. - Price may seem steep for someone who doesn't know the game. For fans of the game: it's absolutely worth the upgrade from the original. So why only 4 stars after raving about it? Well, because while the remaster is fantastic, the game itself definitely isn't for everyone or without flaws: From a sore lack of move variety to the difficulty swinging wildly to the point of being absolutely unfair at times, this is one of those games that you will either fall in love with or that will bore and/or frustrate you out of your mind. My advice: Check out a playthrough and if it seems down your alley, grab this. Refunds are an option after all and you'll know within a few horus whether this is a game for you or not.
