So, whats it all about, and why should you buy it?
Its a packed title, and one thats never dull.
Whats more, life forms are everywhere, and include NPCs, and even Uncle Peyj himself.
It certainly beats collecting flags (pay attention, Ubisoft!).
Combat in the game isnt the main focus, but is handled well.
You cant see me!
(Well, unless you stood in a locker for 5 minutes.)
Boss fights are plentiful too, in both on-foot and vehicle sections.
When outside of main missions theres always plenty to do and see.
And now its in HD, its even better.
That said, dont expect the kind of visual fidelity youll find in todays releases.
Visually, the game is almost identical, with no new textures.
It has real character, and adding in next-gen graphical touches for the sake of it would ruin this.
Leave that for the sequel, if it ever arrives.
It really is that good.
This isnt a major issue, though, as the game is so much fun.
But a little extra toughness would have been welcome.
You wont regret it.
Beyond Good & Evil HD is out now and available on XLBA and PSN.
