I enjoyed this one back in the day.

I remember it “looking good” at the time with the flashlight being the standout feature.

Gameplay felt tense but I doubt what produced tension in 2002 is going to hold up in 2024.

I’m all for the remaster from a preservationist perspective but I doubt it will get me to spend much money.

This definitely had more of an ‘Action Shooter’ feel and not ‘Suspense Horror’ like the movie, but was still a solid game. I’d like if someone else built a similar themed game but more toward horror. Dead Space obviously knocks it out of the park here, just saying another similar, more horror based would be awesome.
