    Ducktales Remastered is a nostalgia trip from start to end, frustrating, life-taking warts and all.

This game is way better than the classic and legendary NES version with a storyline to boot. The voice acting is spot on. The gameplay is fast and fluid. The graphics are beautiful and the game itself is a legendary series. Maybe this will encourage Capcom to make a Duck Tales 3 you know without any dlc lol!) BUY THIS GAME! 10/10!!… Full Review »

    Pros:
    -Beautiful graphic
    -Funny Dialogues
    -Amazing soundtrack
    -Good optimization
    -Challenging, but not annoying

    Cons:
    -Missing speech animations
    -Doesn't work with every Joy-pad    … Full Review »
