Oh wow, I never played the remake! Is it as good as the original? I rented and played the original so much that the Blockbuster employee gave me a partial refund so that I'd buy my own copy of the game instead of wasting money at their store.

It's amazing but they've changed the gameplay a lot so it almost feels like a completely different game but with enough subtle callbacks and reused gameplay mechanics that it's not too different than the original.

It's like going to your childhood home after being gone for decades. The new owners renovated a decent bit but it still feels familiar and like home.

That's really cool, I might have to give it a try!
