Oh, and it happens to be a lot of fun too.
BUT IS IT BEATABLE?
Seriously don't think I've ever managed to beat that one. Gotta love that one life.
Definitely a hard game. I don't think I managed to get more than a few levels deep.

We have two copies we've picked up. From time to time I sit down with it, and then I proceed to get my ass handed to me. It is possible to beat it...but it's not easy.

I've managed to finish it... once, and yeah, total pain in the ass.
Started playing Zeno Clash, but I'm finding the combat clunky and the controls unintuitive. I've never played a first person beat'em up that felt right to me. I'm still playing Beyond Good and Evil HD. Had to start over due to some annoying missables in the Factory stage. So annoying how people always say that the game has no missables when it does(health upgrades are missable). I had totally forgot about that.
The HD port of BG&E is full of problems. Bad camera, game breaking bugs, etc. I don't remember having all these issues in the Gamecube version I played years ago and I suspect they are problems that existed in the PC version they probably used for this HD port. I'm pretty sure the GC version was the original target platform for this game and is probably more stable. It's a testament to the game's quality though that it is still playable and enjoyable despite those problems. Having the HD visuals and achievements/trophies helps make those problems forgivable. Nice having the dark room available again too for people who never got the last M disc in the older versions of the game. I truly hate the idea of having to go to a company website to unlock additional content though and hope that no company ever does that again. Ubisoft pulled this with Peter Jackson's King Kong too, but fortunately that game had a cheat code you could use instead

That's a shame to hear. Beyond Good & Evil is such a wonderful game, I'm saddened to hear the HD version has so many issues.

I have the PC version, and it doesn't have any problems like that. It's just as good as the console versions, and the graphics are better.
