F*** that was so much better than I though it would be…plus that music tends to get me on my good side! I can’t wait. Too bad no voice acting the trailer though.

Definitely a facelift from the original, but I don’t share the enthusiasm about the music. Sure, it induces nostalgia in me as it’s basically the same music as the original, but it’s surprisingly synthetic to have been made on modern computers. Something tells me Robert Holmes hasn’t updated his VST library in quite a few years.

It seems there is a fresh batch of screenshots also, I’m way too excited for this…

When I compare this to that, I prefer the latter.

Me too. But I will buy the remake, no matter how good or bad it is. I want a GK4!

I agree, the new voodoo shop scene is a bit overdone, but the new book shop scenes and Malias mansion look fantastic.

The step up from Moebius is amazing. Looking pretty good.

Yes, voodoo shop is certainly the worst, other backgrounds range from poor to even good.

I’m more concerned now about the character models and their animation and of course how the new cast will sound.

Hmm, I don’t get what’s suppose to be so bad about the voodoo shop at all. I agree that the music doesn’t sound the most organic but hearing the same awesome theme remastered is still really cool.

If you look at the trailer the animation is incredibly smooth. The character models also blends really well with the backgrounds (except for the ocassional foot being a bit off compared to the ground). It sure will be interesting to hear the new voices.

...the voodoo shop is quite authentic to the locale more so than the original. The original looks like a meh 7-Eleven.

From what I saw in the Big Easy, quite the contrary.

Granted, I’ve never been in New Orleans nor in a voodoo store for the matter, but I do think the remake version looks a bit too much like b-movie set with all the candles and dark shadows.

The trailer does make the game look pretty good! Animations are well done However when I look at the screenshots i’m back to feeling a little disappointed. It’s the same problem I had with Moebius’ background art. Remind me a little bit of those cheap casual games. The backgrounds are admittedly very loyal to the original so I will give it that, but there is just something which I can’t put my finger on which is stopping me from really liking the background art! As long as they are atmospheric though I’m sure everything will turn out well. Judging by the trailer it is atmospheric! The cutscenes are looking great too!

One of the scenes in particular that I have a problem with is the crime scene. In the original it was very eerie, with trees hanging in the corner of the screen giving us this sense that this is quite a secluded area! In the remake theres a sunset in the background and it’s all quite open, leaving us feeling less claustrophobic. Also I assume there will be barely animation like the original where there are a lot of policemen on the scene that put the body into the back of the van and drive away. I reckon in the remake the screen will fade to black and the cars will be gone… only an assumption though. I hope this isn’t the case.

You guys are simply watching the wrong movies.

Screenshots look awesome, even the voodoo shop. Looks more authentic than the original too, imo (based on what I can find online). I don’t get what you guys feel is wrong with it…
