    Good graphics but a bad remake. Gameplay is still bad. But the graphics are very sweet and lovable. however, I am giving this score for these graphics and unique style.

    Amazing remake of true classic. Art style, music, voice acting, everything is just great.

    Buggy broken, hard crashes...This game is unfinished and it's a shame..
    That being said I still enjoyed this badly built remake over nearly every other FPS game I've played this gen..
    Gameplay is so cookie cutter and generic these days that the old games are the only way to get inovation and originality.. Really wish they had done better on this remake though, I liked the art and scenery,    Buggy broken, hard crashes...This game is unfinished and it's a shame..

    It’s been ages since I’ve seen a shooter so awful. Ridiculous physics, horrible animations, practically non-existent enemy AI, and guns lacking a punch are just some of the remake’s transgressions. Believe me, it’s a really, really bad game. [01/2021, p.81]

    It takes a special talent to create a remake which is much worse than a game released 17 years ago.

    With the brilliant heights that remakes of Resident Evil 2, for example, achieved last year, it felt inevitable that a remake like XIII would stand as the exact opposite result in that regard. Whether or not you’re the type to maybe excuse some of the failings as unanswerable solutions to an aged approach to game design, it doesn’t take away from just how little care and effort PlayMagic have placed in the other departments. Enemy intelligence that’s practically non-existent, an overuse on what seems like a meager, hurriedly-compiled assembly of audio and visual assets. On top of a gunplay premise that looks, sounds and feels objectively worse than that of the 2003 Gamecube original. 2020’s XIII is a broken, buggy and boring rendition of a game long-time fans deserve a better interpretation of.
