Still essentially the same game as released on mobile, but at twice the price and with microtransactions that are even more cynically-designed than usual.

What started off as a fan remake of Resident Evil 2 has been transformed into a would-be homage that even in its better moments is a tedious and frustrating slog.

You'll be laughing at, not with, this parody - which perpetuates every cliche it sets out to mock.
