I would like to say that I have 100% completed this game and I am now starting over from 0% just to have the same experience. I have played the original game and I would like to say this is a good remastered version, but it could have been so much better than what it currently is.
The visuals are very nostalgic and reminds me of the times I had when I played this with my brother. The game is very nice to look at and if you want to play the original version there are settings to make it look, sound and play like the original game. The remastering of the character arts could have been better designed, as there was some strange elements on what the characters look like which stayed in the remastered edition, such as Ben's bright pants and his dark leather jacket combo. The design in the remastered also confused me sometimes, when the objects in the scenery blend in with the background and you don't release that an object you need is right in front of you. The animations also feel unfinished, some are reused consistently like they didn't have enough time, it is very choppy animation most of the time and I felt this would have gotten a higher review if the game was more polished in animations and other details.
The setting is very interesting and unique yet odd, this is something you wouldn't make up on the spot the game reminds me a lot of Mad Max, the story is also very... The word I would use is smart, it makes you feel badass when you play, which occupies me and encourages me to play. The characters are all different and it's hard to get them mixed up.
The gameplay is a 7.5/10 in it's prime but it's a 5/10 most of the time which makes me think that they didn't know what to program for the controls, the controls are awkward and I always hate having to watch Ben lump around, in games similar to this like The Walking Dead, the main character walks around but you don't care because the environment engages you, this game forces you to watch and bores you, when your character walks in this game, that's your queue to eat a handful of chips while waiting. The combat or should I say lack of combat is very stiff and frustrating, you fight on your bike and there are a variety of different weapons you can find or loot, the weapons are all the same except for the chainsaw which instantly kills any enemy and the fertiliser which knocks down most enemies off of their bike, but there is an enemy who you need an item from him to progress in the story but this enemy one hit K.Os you and this was very frustrating because if you use the chainsaw you don't get the item. This game is also an adventure game in which you figure out puzzles, and if you can't figure them out you look up a walkthrough.
Overall, the game is good, but the current price is a little high compared to recently released games, you could get FRAMED 2 for the same price, which I think is better in most ways. So I'll have to give it a 3/5 for the current state.
