The Weakest of the Series. To put it bluntly, it's a celebration of 50 year old games, designed for people who have never touched a game in their life.
The difficulty is so lax that combat might as well have been excluded entirely, and yet the constant stream of instant death traps & unskipable, Neverending cutscenes is enough to put off those younger gamers who light difficulty is designed for.
The game is also unclear about saving, and closing at the wrong time can see you having to complete 10-15+ minutes of content to catch up... with that content likely being more cutscene.
There are some good ideas here, but nothing is capitalized on. We're this a studios first attempt, it might be worth more than 2 stars, but being the third game in the franchise, it's honestly sad.
A great sequel. After so many years, the gameplay formula remains original and fresh. Once again, we have likeable characters, a simple story and unfortunately, a short game length.
I didn't like PR 1995, but I LOVE this. OK, I know PR 1995 is really beloved, but I was not a fan. I assumed there would be more actual VR FPS type gameplay in it. As you probably already know, it was mostly platforming 2D gameplay. Yeah, it gave me a sense of nostalgia and all, but it was basically just playing 2D games in VR. The funny thing is that most of the negative reviews I have read about this game was that there is "too much" VR FPS type gameplay. That is actually why I LOVE this game. I totally want that VR experience, and it was a really nice balance with the 2D Atari 2600 style gameplay that was mixed in. If you want the same PR 1995 experience, then you may be disappointed. Like I said, you will get a lot of VR action mixed in with the early 80's era 2D gameplay. It is also fun to be in the office environment, which I am VERY familiar with as someone who works in I.T. and in Silicon Valley, the very same area our protagonists office is located. So yeah, I have a pretty strong connection to this game. I hope this helps anyone who may be on the fence about this one.
