It's good that they decided to write a new engine on the whole Flashback 
theme. However, what made OOTW and Flashback so popular was that it was 
basically a 2 dimension platform game with problem solving twists and lots of 
neat cutscenes, along with great action. The move to 3-D was obviously the 
next step but it just doesn't have the same feel or thrill that OOTW and 
Flashback gave me when I first played it on my Amiga.
