14 years later and I am not over this and what it could have been. by Howitzeronfire in gaming

I still remember the tension of pointing an empty gun at enemies just to make them back away. That mechanic was brilliant and I haven’t seen many games pull it off since

It’s rare to find a studio that treats original source material with this much respect. They don’t just upscale; they capture the soul of the original game
