You might remember, or you might not -- depending on how black-plagued you were back in the late (19)90s. Either way,
Sony has decided to revive
MediEvil and we saw no other option than to call upon our resident knight for review, in
Adam "Griz" Mathew
And he's none too all familiar with this gamesake. Here's a snippet from his review:
Pardon me for digging up the past, but as I look back upon my once beloved MediEvil (1998), I can only view this as a barebones offering.

Be that as it may, there's still a musty odour emanating from somewhere deep down in MediEvil's marrow. Long story short: 20-year old game mechanics have come back to haunt the living.
