Nah, manuals and reverts added a ton. I love the originals stages, but since they're in THPS2X anyway with manuals, there's little reason to go back to it.

Seriously, the giant shit that I'm about to take on that game does not change the fact that it was both revolutionary and fun in its day. I played the absolute hell out of this game when it came out. However, the graphics have not aged well, the collision detection is a fucking disaster, and the controls are abysmal.

I have no idea whatsoever how I was ever as good at the game as I used to be. I loved pumping out points at Roswell or grinding everything possible to zip through the Mall and touch as little floor as possible since manuals weren't a thing yet... and yet the last time I played the OG disc, I could barely make it past the school.

The "remaster" on 360 was better, but not much. I appreciated what they tried to do, but the emphasis was on 'try'. Still felt like I was attempting to move a cinder block across a field with akimbo broomsticks, and there were songs missing from the soundtrack.

I have to go with 3... by the time it got to 3, everything felt right, and still does.

It's awful. Shitty physics and a complete botched mess from the team that went onto make 5.

I still play THPS1 on my DC as my XBox OG has started crapping out. It's still damn playable.

1) Agree'd.

2) Agree to disagree. Feels like a clumsy mess, and when I said "better", I meant the graphics were updated and SOME of the graphical hiccups from the PS1 iteration have been ironed out. It still plays like ass, hitting walls/obstacles a foot away while missing rails you land dead center on is still a thing and again, some of the songs have been omitted, so even a bit of the nostalgia pop goes away.

Play the Dreamcast version. I feel like it fixed a couple of things by being later and had the original soundtrack and not fucking up the things the HD one did.

If I still had my Dreamcast, I would

I lost a lot of shit when I moved back to Ohio.

I'm still waiting for someone to get off their ass and re-release Chu Chu Rocket as an Arcade title. That's a game that kept my DC warm.
