    The MediEvil remake is interesting. Somehow by only massively improving the graphics, it makes the gameplay feel better than before. It's crazy how no major gameplay changes were done! So if you got into this game back in the day, it came on a demo disc. And once you played that, you got introduced to wacky and dark game that stood out from other titles at the time. Sir Daniel Fortesque returns from the dead to stop the evil wizard Zarok. But throughout this while adventure I'm left with one question: Why did they make a statue of Sir Dan as a skeleton?

    I collected the Lost Souls just a few days ago.
    When I did the lost souls, I was confused. The game kinda froze, like it was loading something. When I beat the game, I just went to the main menu, and I was in tears.
    THE ORIGINAL GAME! THE FULL ORIGINAL GAME! WITH THE PLAYSTATION INTRO AND EVERYTHING!

    I just beat it and have to say I loved it! Playing the demo when I was a kid freaked me out but there was something about this game that made me want to return to it someday. I'm very glad I did, the visual overhaul gave the game some nightmare before christmas vibes which I loved. The gameplay was a lot of fun with classic action playform style, a great variety of weapons and the characters were fun and interesting. I rarely every complete games but I may go back for the other trophies I may have missed.

    The camera in the original version was the result of development commencing in 1995, with the release in 1998.
    The Analogue Controller released in 1997, thus development would likely have been extended by several years especially given the inexperience of the team with 3D.
    Additionally, we did not miss Analogue when we did not have it, and it took many years for games to adapt their control styles to make use of the right stick. XD

    This game is on sale at gamestop for 19.99, thanks for your review. I did play the demo on ps1 years ago, and have some nostalgia, but saw all the mixed reviews with this remake and was on the ropes whether to get it or not. Your point of view is on par with what I experienced playing this game as a kid, I think I will enjoy this remake.

    I love this remake! Medievil has always been one of my favorite games and I really hope they remake Medievil II

    Really enjoyed this game as well. Didn't encounter that bug in the ant level, but I did have to re-do the hedge maze level because the bishop chess piece couldn't move diagonally after the other pieces locked in place and blocked it out. But yeah, I noticed others complaining about the checkpoints as well, and it made expect a difficult game, but I didn't have any issues getting through the game. I think I had one death against the final boss as I didn't know what I was doing.
