PC Genjin Vol. 3 - JPN PS2 - 3,000Yen - Release Date: 12.4.03


PC Genjin (Bonk's Adventure) for the JPN PS2 is volume 3 in Hudson's "good price" series of classic game remakes, and for the most part Hudson Soft has done a very good job at re-creating the original Bonk on the PS2 (it is almost an exact port from the PC Engine)


When you start playing, you will feel right at home with the controls, which have been mostly unchanged from the original. The sound FX is straight from the PCE, and the music has been remixed in redbook audio.


Overall, the game is a fun remake of the original Bonk's Adventure, with 3D graphics, but keeping with the original 2D gameplay. If you have a JPN PS2, and you have played the original Bonk, you owe it to yourself to pick this up. Let's hope Hudson continues to do other quality remakes of other PCE games!
