One of the most amazing games I have ever played. Having played the original one way back when on a borrowed Mac, I had not found another game that quite lived up to this one. I've been a fan of Mechner ever since I played Karateka on my Apple II+. I almost passed this game up because the 3rd one was sooooo bad I didn't give this one a second look. It was by chance that I saw it at E3 simply because my brother was curious about it. This is a wonderful, wonderful game, the camera is incredibly good, the action is very well done, the animation superb, the voice acting quite tolerable. If there is one negative thing I can say is that there is too much combat and it is quite repetitive. In the original, the focus was more on exploring than combat. Even so, run to the store right now and buy it.
