Played it. Used a walkthrough most of the time, sad to admit.
Still, I LOVED the story and characters. Even if I feel the remastering could have spent a little more time on the models (especially Glottis' open mouth), the overall presentation still holds up because of the charming art style.
I also wish the pre-rendered scenes could have been redone.
I too wish the models could have been updated. The textures look great and wonderful, but some things are a little awkwardly blocky. Glottis and the demon repair man from the first chapter come to mind.
Those are the least of my issues.
This year's E3 will host a live reading of the Grim Fandango script by the entire original voice cast. As far as anniversary tributes go that's pretty dang neat.
Neat. I'll have to meet up with Tim.
Is anyone from the original cast still in business? Twenty years is a lot, and many of them already were veterans when the game was being produced, if I'm not mistaken.
Spiral out, keep going.VAs tend to have really long careers, so possibly. Alan Young was still doing voice work up until his death in his 80s/90s.

They changed a lot.
The changes are enough for me to play the original with all of the cues, reading, etc the way I've had it for the past 17 years.
