Day of the Tentacle Remastered

Day of the Tentacle Remastered is a revival of the classic PC point and click adventure game that debuted back in August 2005. It has been re-released several times in the past, but this latest version has been much the same, with remastered graphics and gameplay.

The original game, originally released in August 1997, has become a cult classic among gamers, due to its addictive gameplay. The modern game utilizes modern gameplay features to ensure the player’s progress through the game is satisfying and fun. Though it’s not perfect, the remake of the original game is still a great experience to pick up for any fans of the original game.

The game’s remaster takes the graphics from the original game and modernizes them, but not to the same extent. The game’s art style has also been completely redone. The characters in the game are noticeably different in the remake. While it’s not a visual masterpiece, the game’s musical score is one of the game’s strongest highlights.

Cult classic Sleeping Dogs has been remastered by Square Enix with a modernized version. The game received mixed reviews upon release. The graphics looked amazing for a PS3 title and was fully realized in motion. It’s still great to play, but many have noted the touch screen controls have been criticized for making the game overly difficult.

The original Sleeping Dogs released in 2011 and saw numerous improvements. The game got rid of the dull, generic open world and made the player feel as though they were playing a real crime drama. In today’s gaming industry, this kind of open world is a surefire way to succeed.

Onimusha is an action-adventure that saw the player taking on the role of a samurai called Samanosuke. In his quest for vengeance, he must hack into his enemies’ souls to ultimately do battle with them.

The unique fighting system of Onimusha earned a sequel, Onimusha Dawn of Dreams. In the sequel, the player gets to explore the titular tomb of Ylena, a human girl trapped in the dark. She may be missing, but she will remember her moments of peace.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow was developed by Spanish company MercurySteam and launched in 2010. The game, however, has been remastered for modern consoles and has yet to receive a sequel.

The visuals were, of course, the closest to what one would expect from the new console generation of gaming, in terms of the vibrant and cartoonish style. The soundtrack for the game was also a nice surprise as well.

Devil May Cry 4 was the latest entry in the Devil May Cry series. The game's action wasn’t quite as good as its predecessors but it was still very satisfying. The sequel, Devil May Cry 5, expanded on that predecessor.

The combat was another combo-heavy game with an incredible sense of style. It was more challenging than the previous entries on this list, but it was still rewarding and presented enough variety to give the game a replay value.

Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando was a remake of the first Ratchet & Clank. The game was one of the first games to use 3D visuals which were ahead of their time and made the characters far more detailed. Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando was one of the first games to show off the PS2’s capabilities and was very similar to the original.

Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando didn’t get the highest scores on Metacritic but it was still a decent entry in the series. It was also the first game to be developed by Insomniac Games, which was set to work on the Resistance franchise.

Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed was the first game to use 3D graphics and featured fully licensed tracks. This may sound odd, but the game was the first Mario Kart game to use 3D graphics. It was the first racing game to use motion controls and was the first to be compatible with PlayStation Move.

Unfortunately, the game didn’t earn high scores from critics but it still got high marks for its use of motion controls. Overall, the game did perform better than many other 3D racing games.

Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution was the first game to use motion controls for a 3D racing game. It was the first game in the series to use them in a 3D environment and it really highlighted the strengths of the PlayStation Move controller. The game was released on the PlayStation 3 and was just a port of the PS2 version.

However, the game performed better than many other 3D racing games at the time.
