Best Remake 2011

Posted on Thursday, December 22 @ 10:15:39 Eastern by Josh_Laddin


The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D

Platform: Nintendo 3DS

Publisher: Nintendo

Developer(s): Nintendo EAD, Grezzo

With the abundance of HD remakes this year, this was a tougher category than we anticipated—ICO and Shadow of the Colossus Collection and God of War Origins brought a bunch of great games to the masses who didn’t get a chance to play them before, while Metal Gear Solid HD Collection introduced us to a new and improved Peace Walker which finally got the release on consoles that it always deserved.

But there’s not a whole lot you can do to dethrone Ocarina of Time, unless you’re Nintendo and just decide to one-up yourselves with another Zelda game like the honey badgers you are. OoT 3D struck a perfect balance between enhancing the original game with subtle changes without doing too much so as to make sure the magic stayed intact. And with a new iteration of the Master Quest that mirrors the entire game, even veterans got to experience Hyrule in a different way.

Runners Up:
  • ICO and Shadow of the Colossus Collection
  • Metal Gear Solid HD Collection
  • God of War: Origins Collection
  • Starfox 64 3D
Related Games:   God of War: Origins Collection, ICO and Shadow of the Colossus Collection, Metal Gear Solid HD Collection, Star Fox 64 3D, The Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time 3D

    its also funny he has some problem with psp games being in teh runners up, but has no problem with the winner being an n64 game, which is easily worse than the psp in just about every way.
