Made a point to test this port out. It’s great. I always felt this series took off to GOAT tier with 2, and 3 is fantastic as well - but we are dealing with a full THREE of the best manic shooters ever made and for some reason a few clowns decided to nuke this one’s review ratio. Don’t get it, don’t care, and I highly recommend this (very much) and the two sequels (oh hell yes).
