Worth it if you can get pass some of it's flaws, but the camera is a nuisance.
#1 Camera; causes unnecessary play issues, such as the view too close when (forced) in a barrel. The camera will auto center when you start to move, narrowing your field of vision letting the enemies blindside you. Early in the game the turtle explains is you are inside a barrel, that you can't be spotted, yet in the last level if the enemy is in front of you you'll be killed. This camera problems is also there in normal walking, not letting you choose your view angle. I have seen the camera angle isn't a prblem in the sly collection, but since there are no cheats I won't play ANY platform game w/o them.
LOATH the re-spawning enemies; clearing showing the weakest link in Platform games. The platform games have an OCD trait to always throw a constant obstacles at you till you reach your goal, a very cheap method to extend the playing time for the game. The coins & health don't last long enough after killing or destroying, after the fight your likely have to orient your self to see the coins by which them the star spinning rapidly, indicating there are about to disappear! It's a no brainier to collect the coins like Spyro, when the are drawn to you if your near them.
CAN NOT CHANGE OPTIONS!!! The options available for the 1st game are gone, leaving you play with the default button layout for everything except to assign 3 gadgets, camera view, & you can't zoom w/o using the binoculars. Why do the binoculars have solid horizontal lines when viewing?!?!?
Here is the good:
voice acting

story
character /personalities
