It's one of my favorite childhood treasures, but of course playing it now does take some getting used to the quirks and outdated drawbacks like the controls, graphics, lack of accessability options and poor stealth segments. What makes this particular port much less stressful than normally though is the new rewind and quick save mechanics (which are also on the other classic titles featured in the new PS Plus Premium service). It's a nostalgic trip for longtime fans, and once I got used to its oitdated gameplay and re-adapted, I felt like I went back to a much simpler time. Expand
