Revisiting Up Your Arsenal for the first time since its release, and it mostly holds up! A bit shallow, a bit repetitive, but it's very smooth to play and rotating through all your guns and leveling them is a compulsive thrill.
Delighted to see as well that the optional sewer dungeon is exactly as devious as I remembered, an enormous mess of twisty little pipes where gravity and direction lose all meaning. An almost sort of meditative joy trying to keep the whole thing mapped out coherently in my head without losing focus.
(Also, PCSX2 has completely overhauled its UI in the last year or so with help from the DuckStation guy, and it's much less obnoxious now!)
