I sat there playing this feeling the nostalgia drain out of me.

A pure nostalgia trip for me. It's essentially the same game I played as a kid with a fresh coat of paint. It's enjoyable but doesnt add anything new. Worth a play if you want that trip back in time. Plat difficulty - 2/10

A shot-for-shot remake, and an obvious low-budget effort. While the devs did a fine job preserving the charm and humour of the original, the music and atmosphere are severely watered down, and the controls somehow feel even more slippery and loose. It boasts a much higher challenge level as well as new side quests, but there's otherwise no reason to recommend it over the PS1 version.
