Top 10 Best Video Game Remakes & Remasters
How many of them have you played?
10. Pokemon Diamond and Pearl Remake: Alright this one isn't really out yet, but it's looking really good! Plus, the release is just a few months on November 19, 2021. The original Diamond and Pearl came out all the way back in 2006 and the fact that people are still interested in a remake shows how good the game really is. | © Nintendo
9. Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening Remake: Now that's an old-school title not many of us remember. The original Link's Awakening came out in 1993 for the Gameboy. Needless to say, the remake is enjoying a lot of popularity. | © Nintendo
8. Mafia Definitive Edition: The Mafia remake came out 18 years after the original release of the game back in 2002. The difference between the two is night and day. The remake enjoyed high ratings from both fans and critics alike. | © 2K Games
7. Tony Hawk 1 + 2 Remaster: Speaking of old-school nostalgia-inducing games, there's no better example than Tony Hawk. The game is a true blessing for any skating fans that haven't received a decent title in years. | © Activision
6. Demon's Souls Remaster: If you're a Dark Souls fan you should be quite familiar with Demon's Souls. The game that started the Souls-like trend finally got a remaster 11 years later. | © Sony Interactive Entertainment
5. Black Mesa: Half-Life is what brought Valve to glory. The company's signature game received a lot of love from the community. So much that a team of dedicated fans spent years on Black Mesa. The final result is something stunning. | © Crowbar Collective/Valve
4. Kingdoms of Amalur Re-reckoning: This game probably went under the radar for many, but it was much more than what it initially seemed. Kingdoms of Amalur Re-reckoning is a great remaster that improves not only visual quality but also refines the gameplay. | © EA/THQ
3. Resident Evil 2 Remake: Another great remake that we saw in the past two years was Resident Evil 2. The original game came out in 1998 and the remake brought it back to life. If you haven't tried it, we highly recommend it. | © Capcom
2. Resident Evil 3 Remake: Capcom were quick to deliver more Resident Evil action with the remake of Resident Evil 3. It improved the looks of the original 1999 game but managed to keep the tension and horror which made it great in the first place. | © Capcom
1. Final Fantasy VII Remake: If there's one remake to stand out from the rest it's definitely this one. The Final Fantasy VII Remake delivered on every front. Not only did it remain true to the original story of the 1997 title, but it also managed to expand greatly on it. | © Square Enix
