LATEST FEATURESBeing A Console Is Actually Xbox One's Worst Asset
Microsoft's newest console has lots of different features, but video games might hold the device back from the software giant's true intentions.

Pixelated Portal, Mass Effect, Bioshock Has Us Pining for 2D Remakes

One of my favorite things in the whole world is pixelized art... as a subset of that, pixelized visions of modern games are high on the list. Soooo... these are pretty much the best things ever.
DeviantArtist ~pieceoftoast created these Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP-inspired pieces that maintain all the detail and atmosphere of the inspiration while also putting a definite personal touch on it. Which one is your favorite?
Am I the only one who doesn't want this to happen? We're supposed to be moving innovation forwards, not... back to 1994. I don't want that era back. It's dead, please let it stay dead.
That being said, pixelart is cool for its nostalgia, but I don't want these made into games. It's 2012, not 1994.
Nope. I agree completely. Not just because visually, but in terms of technology you can do a whole lot more now than you could with 2D pixels and sprites.
Oh yeah, pixel art is really only best when it's appropriate for the game and platform. I consider Batman: Arkham City one of the most beautiful games in recent memory.
