Back in the day I was full into the "dark games". Resident Evil, Soul Reaver, Shadowman... So my uncle got me the new Alone in the Dark, and my PC didn't run, but his could, and I played like half in the game. Never finished thou. In the same time, I got a GBA and got the GBC version of it, and had a blast! Graphics are really great, the RPG themed worked fine for it, just kinda short game - I could finish less than half an hour with no problem. Still, the PC version was kinda of a novelty for me... until yesterday, that I played start to finish, and yeah, it kinda blows
New Nightmare was launched in 2001, Resident Evil 3 and later Code: Veronica was launched more than a year before. The graphics of the characters are not great, but not bad - pick the original Code: Veronica for the Dreamcast and compare, it's way better. Scenario is fucking amazing, with high quality pre-rendered stuff close to REmake - kinda repetitive thou, but ok. Mechanics? Painfully slow, with old methods like entering the Menu and choosing a key to open a door, bosses with too much life energy, and weird difficult level - regular enemies are easy to kill, but like three hits you can die. Music is original RE level of bad. Story sometimes work, but sometimes don't, and the end is very dry
It's very weird that a game that I loved is not the same anymore. I can't say that is really a product of time, because other games had fixes for that back in the day. But at least I still love the GBC version. Shit is amazing
