Pretty bad remaster that does little to fix the flaws of the PS2 original. There's an increase in resolution but the game still runs at 30 fps with textures that are embarrassing for a 2012 release.
The game also has some pretty clunky and unresponsive controls which, combined with the often subpar level design, can make it a chore to play through. However, the story and world building are fairly interesting, making the cutscenes enjoyable to watch. The game's score is also great but doesn't play during regular gameplay for some reason.
Ultimately a flawed release but worth it for those who want to see where the series came from.
