Patapon 2 Remastered fails to compensate for the fact that the Sony PSP was a very different device from the PlayStation 4, and in the end, controller latency sinks this classic game adaptation. If the game had compensated for the particulars of its new home, it may have been immensely enjoyable – the core of a great game is intact. But as it stands, Patapon 2 is frustrating and unfun.

A fun and funky sequel, Patapon 2's bolstered roster of cheerful eyeball folk make for another welcome trip soundtracked to the beat of Pata Pata Pata Pon. It's a shame then that the remaster feels incomplete, offering an experience that's fundamentally less comprehensive than the PSP original.

An excellent follow-up. While I'd recommend newbies to start with the original Patapon, it's nice to see this title available on modern systems. The game is excellent in spurts and deserves to be shown to a wider audience.

An often overlooked classic that you should definitely play if you haven't already... Still manages to be packed full of charm and challenge.
