It wasn't great but there's some fun to be had with it if your willing to forgive its faults,though the voice acting is truly awful !!!

BrianSharon3709d ago

You're right, it's not terrible on its own merits. However this remake on the other hand, well...

WeAreLegion3709d ago

No. It was a crappy port. How did they screw it up so badly?!?

BrianSharon3709d ago (Edited 3709d ago )

I'm not sure. I hesitate to say that it was lazily ported, but it feels that way.

WeAreLegion3709d ago

Oh, trust me. It was. I still play the original on my PC. They managed to make it look worse, ruin the hit detection, and ADD tons of bugs. The frame rate, alone, makes it almost unplayable.

InklingGirl3709d ago

My question is why did it take so long to get a release and why near the end of the Xbox 360's and PS3's life cycle?

I remember wanting to play this game when the original Xbox was big news. Seems like a waste to be honest...
