What players say
Basically the original experience with a new coat of paint and some new easter eggs and customization for the characters. I can safely recommend this for someone picking up the game for the first time as this is essentially the original with some added goodies.
2 more reviews, 1 not recommended
A good and faithful remaster of a gaming cult classic. The only con with this is the mandatory Ubisoft Connect Launcher... I mean c'mon, this a singleplayer game.
Judge me I don't care, didn't finish it because the final boss is just a stun-lock chain till you die. Have fun ending the game chucking your controller across the room after ending every attempt stuck in a corner unable to move while your health gets chunked away.
