Abstract: Remakes, remasters and re-releases. I'm sure we've all had just about as many of them as we're able to stomach. “If I have to play another re-release of an old game,” I said not weeks ago, “I'll cut one – or all – of the junior staff.” But then something...
Great presentation, Fascinating extras, Userfriendly tweaks, BanjoKazooie
Some slowdown
Rare Replay is an incredible package. Its presentation is charming, the extras are amazing, and so many of the games included here are still a blast to play. Whether it's your first time through or you're revisiting decades later, Rare's journey through t...
