However, now that the completed package is in the hands of gamers, I am happy to report that Ninja Theory knocked it out of the park, delivering a stylish and edgy reboot and an all-around fantastic action game."

It’s been sitting in my backlog for a while now. One of the first games I wanted to try for this current gen due to the long load times of previous gen. I’ll get around to it soon!
Everytime its on sale I think about buying it but never do. I only played the orginal and somr of 3 so I guess that's part of it.
