Doesn't seem so. Although that was a little while ago.

Not wanting to piss on your cornflakes, I do know a couple of people that played it at launch and really enjoyed it, so you might too.
I thought for £20 would be worth a punt..

I have not played that for a while.. just downloading it again.
I've umm'd and ahh'd about it for ages - I barely play it on the PC even though I have all the HOTAS kit for it and everything, but I think in a living room setting on the TV just as a time killer it'd be quite relaxing.

It’s by the same folks and I expect once I get past the (way too long) tutorial it’ll be the same.

The graphics are updates though and IMO aren’t as good as the Amiga ones - I have trouble telling the foreground and background apart.

You'll have to let me know how you get on with it. I went to watch a YouTube video on it the other day but the guy playing it didn't even know that you could switch characters so I quickly gave up.
TBH it's lost some of the charm of the original, for me. I'm sure the gameplay itself is still adequate, but the music is very different, there doesn't seem to be much in the way of in-game sound (the "walking" sounds from Head and Heels don't seem to be there, for example!) and although the updated graphics are pretty nice, it's not quite enough for me.

Not sure if it counts as these are technically presents, but I reckon I'll get a bit of playtime out of them

Wrong thread! Unless you bought them last year of course.
Last minute Xmas presents. Decided to hold back the dlc code though for a few weeks and use as a birthday present.
Then I commend you on both as we have also got both and they have provided many hours of entertainment each.
Late impulsive entrant for me
Series X <449.00>
Games Pass <1.00>
I've spent an extra <430.36> according to my spreadsheet but I can't remember what I've included here and what I haven't. The big things I've bought include a new purple Evercade, an Evercade VS and a load of new Dreamcast games. That lot alone probably totals around £300.

Oh, and I've also bought the best game ever again... Resident Evil 4 but this time, on the Wii.
