When bringing back any game from the past for another look the prospects will always tend to be dicey, at best. Bringing back a FMV game that was featured on the Sega CD? That’s a whole different level of ballsy for a multitude of reasons. So now that we have Corpse Killer on Switch we can really take a moment to appreciate the nuanced performances of the actors involved… kidding, the acting here is approximately 10 miles below the bottom of the barrel. The crisp remastered video at least looks great… KIDDING even more, the artifacts and outright tearing of the video make this look like a shot-on-video horror show that simply can’t be made to look better. But at least the overlaid shooting gameplay is engaging and exciting… sorry, I keep doing this. Wow, it is pretty unresponsive and laughably funky. Aside from pure masochistic nostalgia I can’t imagine any reason to pick this up, it’s just a mess on so many levels. ****/2021/08/mini-reviews-august-5th-edition.html
