Because the original was one of the best side scrolling games ever made.

Duh!

This is sort of the "Metroid Prime" of the Xbox.

Ok, I just finished what seems to be the first level. I love it.

I'd give it about 95% merely because the camera just can't seem to keep up. Of course, this is because I'm jumping and flying everywhere. It seems to work great against regular enemies, but it has trouble when you get into the large areas when you fight against enemies on horses. THey're too fast and when you try to focus in ont htem, it gets hard, especially with a couple of horsemen.

The general dynamics of the game are great. Things flow smoothly and the cutscenes are just gorgeous. It is hard, but not too hard. Its just right for me on normal right now. I'll probably go through it once on hard too sicne I'll be a lot better once I beat it once.

Also, I don't already have the roms on my modded xbox but the fact that they have the roms included in the xbox version is just too sweet.

Ok, taking off my contacts, making a sandwhich and going back to playing.

I'll post any further impressions I have as I go along.
