Yeah between this PoP remake and the Pac-Man CE sequel from last week it’s been a good month for classics, but I wouldn’t call them budget at 800 points, at 400 points they’d be no-brainers to pick up and a must-have for anyone though. But you can’t really blame third-parties for having to pay Microsoft a 30% licensing fee or something ridiculously high along those lines, so to make a profit they have to charge double.

I think it’s so exciting that teams are remaking games like this – especially for budget releases! I hope we see some more soon : )

Yeh I was amazed at how great the animation from the original (that was based on real people’s movements) still looks. I wish they had included that as well as they do with many XBLA releases. I used to be so addicted to the PC version we had and this one plays just as great if not better.

Looks great! I can’t wait to play it, since I never got to play the original. It’s neat to see how close to the original it comes too.
