I bought the original game back in 2006, and haven't regretted it at all, in fact it's a game I've replayed on several occasions. while some elements are slightly rough, there's a lot of fantastic stuff there. The Monkeys stage, the Queen bee, the hunt in the mountain and Torgon battle particularly, in fact I'd say hunt in the mountain stil has some great concepts for a side scroller such as multiple weapons and the locked chest and door system which we've not seen much similar too in other games. Btw, I didn't think the acting was too bad actually, ----- and if you were remaking the game I certainly hope you'd preserve some elements, such as the Torgon voices which were wonderfully done, ---- I particularly like the one singing rather badly which also sings as it dies! ;D. beware the Grue!
