One of the best horror games and remakes I’ve ever played. Absolutely incredible atmosphere, environments, enemies, and graphics. I was on edge nearly 100% of the play through.
As a remake, I did find the old age of the game to peak through a few times. This was mostly when my gameplay was slowed down due to vague and confusing objectives, puzzles, and boss fights (where the boss was virtually unkillable unless you killed them in a specific way). Its checkpoint system was also frustrating as you could get stuck in places with low health and little to no ammo.
But the biggest issue I had was with a glitch I encountered mid-game where my save deleted and I couldn’t save my progress. I was able to find a work around to retrieve my lost save (thanks Xbox cloud sync!) but if not done correctly this is GAME RUINING!!
Despite these issues I still think this game is a milestone for remakes and horror games alike.
8.5/10
