Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons Remake, Review
Spoiler Free,
This remake of the first game from Josef Fares was a massive disappointment especially compared to what he has directed previously.
I love couch co-op games, I can just play with my fiance and we have a blast playing these games together. Both A Way Out and It Takes Two are some of the best couch co-op games we have played so I was very eager to try out this remake made by the same people with couch co-op now added to this experience. I hate reviewing games without finishing them but I need to tell you that we could not do it. This game is incredibly boring with bland characters, extremely clunky controls as they haphazardly threw the couch co-op together for this remake. This was originally a single player game but I think even playing this alone with controls that might be better would still be so tedious. Also not having trophies for both players is an absolute crime.
The only positive that I can give this is the presentation is kind of nice. The opening cut scene provides some intrigue and graphically it's not bad.
Overall, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons Remake might be a polished version of the original but the original just wasn't worth remaking because it is just so bad. I don't recommend this one at all, it's a waste of time and money.
