Sometimes, old games come back in style. Sometimes, they never come back at all. And sometimes they just keep coming back regardless of whether anyone asked for it.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is the all-time champion in the latter category, having been ported and remastered what feels like 19 times now (at least we’re getting Oblivion this time). But on May 5, Microsoft announced Gears of War: Reloaded, a new 4K-enhanced port of the 2006 Xbox 360 classic that’s also coming to PS5. That’s all fine and dandy, except Gears of War literally already got a remaster in 2015 called Ultimate Edition. So, this is a remaster of a remaster, but at least Ultimate Edition owners get the upgrade for free.
That’s goofy, right? But instead of lingering on that, let’s celebrate some other old(er) games that could use the remaster treatment instead.
