I do not know the original PS2 game so I'll rate the game for what it is and not for what it was.

First things first: This game makes me feel bad. I mean it is graphically very beautiful but I never really knew what to think. The boss battles are intense (not difficult but intense).

The open world is epty which creates another strange feeling and hunting down those gigantic, usually peacful creatures doesnt help. But the game successfully does what it wants to do.

It suerly would be a very great piece if the mechanics wouldnt be as horrible as they are...
