Last time i played this was when it came out, and now I've finally beat it. It only took me 20 years.
I really liked this one more than i expected, i had vague memories of it all being a bit silly, Jean Reno and Samurai running around in 2004 france.
But honestly it all works pretty well, the move away from pre-rendered backgrounds turned out nice, and the new Jaques gameplay is actually pretty fun, to the point that i preferred it.
I also liked the fact that Sammy the Samurai got the more horror-type stages, which felt like a nice throw back to his roots. The Sewer level was straight outta RE.
My only main complaint was the zoo section with the french lady. The lock on is borked, as it keeps targetting the shitty little bird things rather than the big giant monster things, which annoyed the hell out of me.
Plus points for Guildenstern calling Sammy on a mobile phone.
