Ranking 2015’s Remastered Games – What to Play and What to Avoid

5 – Grim Fandango: Remastered grim_fandango_remastered Grim Fandango: Remastered does a fantastic job of bringing Tim Schafer’s classic adventure game into the 21st century. While some of the puzzle solving hasn’t aged well, the humor is just as funny as when Grim Fandango originally released in 1998. The new visuals also manage to keep the original look while also looking considerably better.

4 – Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection Uncharted Bluepoint Games have quickly become one of the go-to studios for producing fantastic ports. The studio worked their magic on all three PlayStation 3 Uncharted titles and made them look even prettier on PlayStation 4 in Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection. While there were a few visual hiccups in remaster of the earlier games, and the whole package lacks in any multiplayer, all three campaigns make it a great pretty good value regardless, especially if you can find it on sale.

3 – Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition divinity Larian Studios somehow managed to take an excellent PC game, and bring it to consoles without losing any of its luster. While it’s still best played on PC, Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition offers retooled quests, a bunch of new content for players to sink their teeth into, and a well implemented controller scheme to control all that on-screen action. It’s great that console gamers can experience this game at home on their TV, and PC gamers get an improved edition for their ‘gaming rigs’.

2 – The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D zelda_majoras_mask_3d Nintendo knocked it out of the park with Majora’s Mask 3D. Developer Grezzo was able to update the Nintendo 64 classic with snazzy new visuals, and help make the divisive game more user friendly for new players. This remaster for the 3DS is the best way to play one of the most unique Zelda games ever made.

1 – DmC: Definitive Edition dmc_definitive_edition Ninja Theory set a new standard with how remasters should be done with DmC: Definitive Edition. Not only did the Cambridge-based studio offer up a better looking, smooth running version of the 2013 classic, they also added brand new difficulty settings that changed how the game is played. Throw in the excellent Virgil’s Downfall DLC, and you have one of the best games released in 2015.
