Two Memories: overall pretty nice remake of the original, It can be hard transforming top-down to 3D and I'd say it's done pretty well. That said, the puzzles feel way easier, and I think the game goes into the mansion itself a bit too early.
Another Code R: again, pretty good conversion from 2D to 3D, although the world feels a bit empty sometimes. With puzzles, same as before, they feel a bit too easy. The changes to some of the character models and their dialogues did dissappoint me a bit (for example the rocker guy, he's super bland now), but otherwise I did like Matt's story does finish, as well as the changes to the antagonist and their motivations.
Overall, while I did see some questionable choices, it's a pretty fun remake of the original games. Hopefully we can get some Hotel Dusk down the line.

Now, it's a very good game for its era, with incredible atmosphere and music. The platforming is sorta wonky every so often, but overall pretty fun, and the ambience of the setting is pretty cool, in a dark but not excessively so way.
With that out of the way, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO NOT set the difficulty to hard, because it's like HARD hard. I had to CONSTANTLY quicksave else some enemy would drop a bomb from the sky and instakill me or the like. Speaking of which, the combat is pretty clunky, specially at the beginning, not so much once you get the nuke emitter thingy.
Even with that, you kinda can't help but fall in love with the game. Alice's insanity and some twink cat's smooth voice telling riddles could not have been more appealing.
