I've been waiting a long time for this: Grim Fandango has been remastered to work on modern operating systems. Now you can enjoy the game without dealing with the hassle of getting it to work. One of LucasArt's best point & click adventure titles, Grim Fandango cleverly mixes neo-noir with Mexican/Aztec folklore and rat fink. You play Manny Calavara, travel agent at the Department of Death. You help the recently deceased get to where they need to go. But not all is well in this town as Manny finds himself in the middle of conspiracy and corruption. His ticket out of there is on the loose, and he needs to track her down. The remastered version brings new high-res character textures, dynamic lighting, a live symphony orchestral soundtrack, developer commentary and the fact that it actually works on modern OS's. The game is still 4:3, but you can stretch it to 16:9 as the backgrounds did not get remade (though not recommended). The high-res character textures certainly bring Manny back to life, but perhaps don't do as much for secondary characters. The real treat is getting to hear this fantastic soundtrack with a live symphony. This is truely one of the all time greats, and it weaves in and out of the quirky visuals to deliver an immersive experience. Movie fans should take note of this story, as it mixes elements from classics like The Maltese Falcon and Casablanca with Brazil. All with a Day of the Dead settings. If you've played the original, this is worth picking up to relive the amazing soundtrack in its new life. If you don't enjoy a slow paced game, or typical point & click puzzles, this may not be the game for you.
