Gamer's Opinion

The mother of bad HD releases. Konami and Hijinx shat this out during the height of the HD remake craze and it shows. While some bugs were patched out, the game was never completely fixed and many issues still remain. Missing textures, the reduced amount of fog, and audio clips playing at the wrong time are just some of the issues that crop up during gameplay. Furthermore, Konami had new dubs made for SH2 and 3 using generic anime voice actors. Say what you will about the original actors, but at least you can remember them. The new actors only make you wish you were hearing generic Japanese voice actors instead. Bottom line, this entire release is a trainwreck and you should emulate the original games or play the old PC ports instead.
