The original Monkey Island games and their "Special Edition" remakes were outstanding. They got the original voice cast from the '96 Curse of Monkey Island to fully voice act the silent classics along with faithful, all hand drawn graphics of the entire games. These are my 2 favourite remakes of all time. So much love and care of the original material is very rare these days.

The best Flashback experience you can have is to play it on the Genesis. The Super Nintendo version might have slightly better graphics or sound "as it does with most games". However, the Super Nintendo version suffers from slow down during cutscenes. Flashback on the Genesis is one of my personal favorites on the system. I'm not a huge fan of the the Genesis as a whole though so maybe that isn't saying much. As for the remake, I've never played it myself so I can't speak for its controls, etc. I've watched gameplay footage though and was annoyed enough by the "talkie" voice they gave your character that it made me not care to play it.

The "hyper-cute" super-d Mega Man appeals to me, and i'm not a pre-teen girl. Kawaii is massive in Japan; there's no stigma about finding cute illustrations appealing. It's human nature. I agree about Castle of Illusion. The original was one of my favourite games as a kid, so I was a bit nervous, but it turned out excellent! I play the same way, too; d-pad thru the majority of the game, and switching to analogue stick for the 3D parts. I also miss the butt bump, but I love the narration, personally. It's very Disney. I've not played Ducktales yet; i've been waiting for the physical release to spare my HDD. I agree with people who said if you ever do a part 2 to include GC Resident Evil and Twin Snakes. Also the FFIII remake and Double Dragon Neon are both good.

@GameSack10 жыл бұрын
I didn't feel that Flashback controlled terrible at all. Sure, it controls nothing like the original, but I thought it was more intuitive. The graphics were pretty good for a downloadable game. They didn't have that low-budget feel that a lot of download-only games do. And if there are any bugs int he game that make it unplayable I certainly didn't encounter any. I honestly don't understand why this game gets so much hate, but must conclude that the hate comes mostly from fans of the original.
