Phoenix was the shiat back in the day. Also, the original Star Wars cabinet that had samples from the movie -- awesome. And Golden Axe. And NARC. And Xevious. Okay, I'll stop now.

The first game lacked depth as well, but the graphics were phenomenal

...not to mention the sound / atmosphere. Especially when using headphones.

Going to be real. I’m playing on my PC and every setting is on high at 60fps locked. The game is beautiful, sounds good in headphones (I’m sorry but Returnal still holds the aural crown), and has an impressive photo mode. Can literally hit that at any time. You won’t have full control at certain times, but it’s impressive. After more than an hour I’ve already started to get bored. The fights are brain dead so far and it is a CRAP ton of walking and listening. I’m over the beginning “theme” of you did this to us (people that have played will get this as not to spoil anything). I literally non stop run every chance I get. Obviously isn’t the whole game but gahdamn. Hopefully it picks up soon. Definitely can’t see this being a 10/10 by any stretch of the imagination because the beginning has gotten so boring. Here’s to a better experience tomorrow or Friday when I pick it back up.

Agreed. I've played about 34 mins & it was boring. I'm going to try again tonight for another half hour or so & see if it gets better.

I felt this way with Alan Wake 2. I lasted four hours and then quit...walking sim with weak combat.
