The joke of playing through a stupid game on a stream for some friends continues.
So, it's a more focused experience than the 2006 game. It's just shooting, outside of a bland beat-'em-up fight as the penultimate encounter. It ran at 120fps on RPCS3 for me, which was nice, but it gets no credit for that in this review. The game is bland in terms of encounters and content. Some parts that weren't playtested especially well have fairly generous checkpoints to iron those out. The only somewhat interesting fight in the game is the final one. I died on it once, and noticed that the boss will refill its HP when that happens. It's the only time in the game I made a point to use a powerful weapon and healing items, and it was fairly straightforward from there.
Game's just bland, but serviceable. I wouldn't have gotten through it without my friends in VC mocking it for the 3 hours it took to finish. 1.5/5.
