Controversial opinion: I hope they get a new actress for Juliet.
I was always disappointed despite it's cast of film and television actors, they cast Tara Strong in the role, particularly during a time where she was basically every where.

See if Zoey Deutch will do it, she has experience with zombies while blonde. Laughing

More Lolipop Chainsaw is great, but does it really need a remake? It's not that old and you can play it just fine still. I'd have preferred a sequel.

This game is legit underrated. I borrowed it from a friend back when it was new and it was a big surprise - fairly simple, but very fun.

That said, regarding how necessary a remake is...
Quote:
Additionally, Yasuda explained that the original game had 15 licensed songs in the soundtrack, which is difficult for Dragami Games to use in the remake. The soundtrack therefore will consist of mostly new music aside from a few licensed tracks.

...this sucks, as the licensed tracks are part of the personality. Won't be parting with my original copy any time soon, I guess. There were also a bunch of anime cosplay costumes, but I'm guessing those probably aren't a big expense, if any.

I had a blast with this on PS3 back in the day so I'm looking forward to this!

I think the fact that the original is only released to 7th gen consoles is enough reason to call it inaccessible in 2022.

SFM/Blender artists are probably ecstatic about this...
