Ok now that is an announcement I did NOT see coming! I played these back in the day and I'm interested to see how they update them.
I wonder if I can get past the first 2 levels now lol
I hope the remasters are more forgiving than the originals. Especially the final stage.
Remember the last game on the Dreamcast?
No, because it was so bad you erased it from your brain.
Enjoyed these games, cool concept and interesting story, but the Gameplay was tough.
I own the carts and detest remakes/remasters. But I'm definitely interested in a third game if the original guys are involved.
