Not happy with the changes made in this update. Solos queue was removed and replaced with "Knockout" which added back levels that were removed for being historically unfun as well as adding more custom levels into the game pool including finals. The players per session has been reduced and there are now only 3 rounds per any show. The new social wheel is pointless and just adds visual clutter to the screen and cannot be disabled in settings. The social wheel also makes it more tedious to perform regular emotes. I was really enjoying the game in the last month aside from custom maps, but this update is not feeling very fun.

Ever since I got the original version of the game back in 2010, I found myself always coming back to play through the game at least once a year, and now I can do that in high definition on my PC without having to hook up the old X-Box.

The graphics have been updated phenomenally considering this was an X-Box launch title, as well as clean-cut sound files to make the game look and sound amazing.

The game stars a 10-inch voodoo doll named Vince who is brought to life by the spilled Zombie Dust stolen by the game's antagonist, Cosmo The Inscrutable, along with his henchmen who have also captured the owner of the voodoo shop and Vince's creator, Madame Charmaine. Vince, with his voodoo magic, must track down Cosmo and rescue Charmaine while meeting and beating a vast crew of comical characters through several levels of puzzle-platforming action.

Gameplay for Voodoo Vince is relatively simple yet deviously entertaining.

• Vince has several moves in addition to the basic run, jump and punch.
  
• He can use a spin attack to damage enemies, knocking them back, while also providing as an extension of your jumps.
  
• While in the air, Vince can hover to descend slowly, covering more distance while in the air.
  
• Vince can also use a head slam attack while mid-air which is more effective on specific enemies.
  
• Eventually in the game, Vince will find a special pin which can be used to grapple from targets placed within levels.

Damaging and killing enemies will cause them to drop beads, filling a meter that, when full, allows Vince to use a Voodoo Power, hurting himself in various comical ways which will gratuitously yield the same painful death to all enemies close enough to Vince.

Throughout most levels are several bags of Zombie Dust, which can increase your health with every 100 bags collected.
Some levels contain Skull Pages which, when all are collected in an area, will conjure a Power Skull, which Vince can chase down and collect to expand the count of Voodoo Powers he can hold at once.

• There is currently a bug causing a loud sound to play when pausing and unpausing as well as when HUD elements disappear
  
• The key for hovering and first person view are currently the same, and cannot be bound differently, this can cause annoying toggles to first person view when holding hover as you land
  
• There is a sequence in the final levels in which you are flying a plane. Rotating the plane's axis counter-clockwise and firing the plane's guns are currently mapped to the same key and cannot be bound differently. You will have to spin while shooting.
  
  Overall, this game is a masterpiece, even now after its original release 14 years ago. Well worth the $15 price tag and will provide an experience you won't be forgetting

I hate RPGs.
But this game made me love it.
That's REALLY saying something.
