WM writes: There are many games that are fondly remembered as classics, despite their ancient graphics or quirky stories. With the rise of indie games and downloadable distribution, there's more than one way for these vintage experiences to make a comeback. In light of this new reality, we got our geek on and hammered out a list of the ones we want to see get the revival treatment as soon as possible!
Gaming Respawn reviews System Shock
Michael Kitchin writes, "As someone who really likes the original, this new take on System Shock doesn't stray too far from the source. Nightdive have updated the visuals and made things just a little more friendly for new players. Visually, it's very atmospheric and polished. The interface can initially be tricky to read but combat feels punchy and can be tactical. The conveniences are welcome but it still has one foot in the clunky possibility space of 90's PC gaming. Rather than entirely sand off the things that appeal to me about System Shock, it refines them in a way I really admire."
System Shock returns to Xbox and PlayStation with a faithful recreation of the classic, adding new features, ending and 4K 60FPS visuals
It was remade last year for PC , Now released and OPTIMIZED and PORTED for/to Xbox and PS5, not “remade” just for consoles.
“it follows a critically acclaimed release on PC back in 2023” that’s because it’s the same work/game. it’s not following/follow up or a continuation. Author Sounds like they are taking a stab at an article and don’t know the product-line lineage and release history/ hierarchy they are attempting to inform you about.
More appropriately: System Shock was first rereleased in 2023 on PC, System shock is now available on PS5 and Xbox.
The oddworld series is one of my favorite series of all time..
GREAT story and game play and fun while giving a message that wasn't heavy handed smacked into your face..
imagine an Oddworld game receiving the Rayman Treatment of visuals?
Visually orgasmic..
Great list right here.
A new Dune game. Yes I want!
great list indeed, also put it Ecstatca, Little Big Adventure and Alone in the Dark.
thanks,
