GamesRadar - We sure seem to be getting a lot of remasters lately, huh? You can't go a week without some old game getting a brand new day in the spotlight on modern hardware. But there are reasons why they're so commonplace. People still want to revisit the classics, and that SNES cartridge just won't fit in a Wii U. And publishers, realizing that blockbuster games are time-consuming and costly endeavors, are reaching into their back catalogs to fill the gaps with inexpensive ports.
Some games you just know are going to stand the test of time, being released and re-released multiple times over the years, or will simply have a legacy that’s built to endure. Meanwhile, there are other games that, for whatever reason, are simply never coming back.
Aye..this is why Emulation is important.
The Punisher was soo damn good. Nailed Garth Ennis take on the character very well. For me still one of the best comic book adaptions ever made.
Where is NOLF!
That they couldn’t find a way to work out the legal stuff to bring it back is one of the greatest tragedies in gaming history.
Def Jam. Great and fun game they will never be re-released. There is just no way to secure all the copyrights for the tracks, voices and likenesses used in this game.
GB: "We analyze Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes and see how it holds up in the current gaming landscape."
I think your enjoyment of Twin Snakes comes down to if you played the PS1 original first or not.
The original soundtrack was missing in Twin Snakes and for me audio is half the experience. Original OST was iconic.
The only things that held this back for me were Naomi's voice acting and the music being changed when you end Sniper Wolf in the cutscene.
Other than that I thought the cutscenes and game were absolutely phenomenal.
A mod by José Mellinas restores the voice acting of the original Metal Gear Solid from 1998 to Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes.
I have to disagree with Twin Snakes. Changing the boss music and having a different voice actor for Grey Fox hurt for me.
Twin snakes? Seriously? The voice acting was terrible!
Besides, it's a remake not a remaster. New engine, new dialogue, new gameplay, big changes to controls....
Agree with Wind Waker man (one of my favorite games of all time), they did a really good job with that.
Really need a Shadow of the Colossus sequel, though I don't ever see that happening lol... :/ .
The Last of Us and Wind Waker made near-perfect games all that closer to perfection. Both are among the most beautifully rendered games out there.
Some say that the lighting of Wind Waker hd makes it look worse. I'm undecided. Okami hd comes to mind as objectively better. All it's missing is the song for the end credits.
