I played the original PS3 version nonstop, well over 1000 hours of playtime on PS3 and I have to say this is one of the best ports I have ever played, everything is very smooth and just as I remember it. Controls can be fully mapped which is probably the best part for me because sometimes on the PS3 they were annoying as hell. The game has aged incredibly well and the HD remaster doesn't make the games requirements very high, my budget gaming rig can run it on maximum settings and at 60FPS.....which in itself is a big improvement over the old 30FPS, even during intense fights with multiple effects when it drops, you wont see the difference.

EDIT: OH JOYOUS DAY!! DD2 has been announced!
