If we’re really gonna get into Pac-people biology they probably have cloacas instead external genitalia.

publishers can’t be relied on to properly preserve their own games, either.

The best one I’ve heard is Pac-Ma’am.

Marvel Zombies Vs Army of Darkness confirmed!

The games are from 20 years ago.

How many gamers weren’t even alive then that could potentially play this remake? Because they’re sure as hell not going to touch the original versions at this point. SNES/Genesis games could make a case for “just port it” and be fine as graphically no one really complains about 16-bit…

He’s the size of a thing but with the proportional strength of a man!

I agree that if the original holds up, ports/remasters are generally great - especially on platforms with limited or no backwards compatibility.

You’re not wrong here - it’s most clearly highlighted when adults try to get their children to enjoy stuff from their childhoods. Some things work, but most stuff just falls flat...

I’ve tried to introduce my children to some retro games (via a SNES Mini, Sega’s MD Classics & some older 90's PC releases) and apart from…

“Max Payne is a game released in 2001.” What more needs to be said ? Being released in 2001, 21 years ago, means that 99% of people under 30 who play video games never played Max Payne. Also, video games are not music, books nor films : technological evolution has a big impact on them. Most people will be ok playing…

Whatever...

I’m not talking about a direct port to let people play an old game on a new system. We’re all used to that, that’s fine.

My second thought was: maybe that money and time could have been spent making a new Max Payne game instead?

What about bratty nostalgia? I coined the term and it’s not good, but let me explain taking as an example... me.

Resident Evil and Final Fantasy were mentioned on the outset, but to me those are examples of when the remake system works well. Both cover classic stories from a new perspective, arguably letting them live up to a more immersive potential than they could back when ‘high drama’ was a stocky, blocky Cloud shaking his…

Ok, fair enough. But can you people stop posting about Logan and Jake Paul at least?

I actually wonder if Echo might be a lead-in to Secret Wars. When Maya shoots Kingpin, does his corpse change into a Skrull? Fisk using Ronin to take out his top lieutenants was a head scratcher. Kingpin is ruthless enough to do it, but why? That made me wonder what reason there might be, to eliminate those closest to…

Not a chance. Announcing a show starring a deaf, Native American, physically handicapped actress/character, and then suddenly at the last possible minute saying “SURPRISE! It’s actually a white dudes show!” ?

Fair enough! I mostly want to see an excuse for the face-disguising technology they used in Agents of SHIELD to come back, and Chameleon would be a decent vessel for it.

I think their actual business model might be to make movies so embarrassingly bad that Marvel feels bad for them and pays them off just to make them stop.
