Way more than just a remake.
Sega has done a great job improving the visuals here.
That means mixing Japanese voices with English text, for example, would produce a mismatched result.
If you’re on Xbox, the recommendation is a little more complicated.
There’s also the curious case of the Switch.
Image quality is fine, at 1080p, but the game runs at a super-weird 31.5fps.
The PC version is also tricky.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t play smoothly at a refresh rate of anything other than a 60Hz.
So that’s the lay of the land as far as the original goes.
The big differences lie in storytelling and progression.
They’re all gorgeous, fast and beautifully designed.
Loading times are also significantly longer here than on the other current-gen consoles.
If you have the hardware, this is the way to go.
If you include the performance mode options, that’s 22 permutations.
The PC version is also very performant.
It’s certainly an interesting situation.
Despite this complexity, the game within is well made and well worth playing.
