Thanks man! I LOVE the original, and all I'd really say is, it's like the remake, but grimier, grottier, and spookier. Isaac's silence deadens everything to a haunting crawl, and the visuals hold up great nearly twenty years on, nasty and bloody as they are. The gameplay itself is good, even without all the clever additions, and the loading times don't feel particularly long. It's also got that iconic loading screen. I haven't seen the film, but now you've suggested it, I'll put it on my list!
The shriek/environment overlap is a brilliant move from the sound designers. I need to check this out. But do I sever a piece of my horrified soul to do so...
Loved this review and would love to see your review on both the original game and the animated movie!

There's plenty of fans screeching loudly out of vents and grinding machinery too! If you do check it out, drop me a message!
