What games had the worst remakes?

Star Wars battlefront, by far

It counts as a remake not a reboot because they reuse maps.

It is not nearly as good as either the first or second of the original

Robocop 2 and the remake are both perfectly acceptable compliments to the original. 3 was so detached from Robocop is that it might as well not have happened.

I watched the original Robocop for the first time a few years ago while high as a kite and it was like a fucking religious experience. I felt Murphy get brutally murdered by Boddicker. I felt the poor bastard in the news room get shredded by the hail of bullets. I felt Murphy's messianic struggle and by the end, I knew I would be the kind of person who could never trust a Robocop, but would know deep down that it was absolutely what ratshit Detroit really needed.

Are there any games capable of granting this feeling?

Also, the "remastered" music for FFX and Cave Story just isn't as good as the original tracks.

2 was a clusterfuck of a story but had some great moments. Remake was just mediocre all the way.

>>382862837
I didn't say that, just ditch the expectations that come with being associated with Verhoeven. It's not a Verhoeven movie and it doesn't try to be. Transhumanism and drone use were clever ways to take the premise, the cast was far better than it needed to be and they did a solid job representing various viewpoints rather than just stupidly sticking to one side and making everyone who wears a suit to work a sociopath. The corporate boss was actually interesting and sympathetic in a David Sarif type way and his relationship with the doctor and ersatz Freddy Krueger were interesting with how they all had different ideas on what Robocop should be.

Of course Verhoeven's action was better but this Brazillian guy did better than I thought he would, Operator Robocop isn't as fun as Verhoeven's giant walking gun Robocop but it still makes for some sleek sequences. And he even had a few novel ideas that wouldn't have seemed out of place in the original. Revealing Murphy as a head, esophagus and pair of lungs was very creepy. And Samuel L. Jackson as the tv pundit was very entertaining and relevant.

>>382862897
It's pretty much exactly on par with 2 imo.

>>382863520
>Robocop
>Religious Experience
Probably not a coincidence, Verhoeven is a devout Christian and deliberately filled the movie with Christian imagery. Obviously he's born again after dying a martyr, but he also (appears to) walk on water during the final action sequence and when he comes back he's first recognized by women. Verhoeven is a stealth kinographer who disguises himself as a pleb fodder salesman.

Most moved I've ever felt by a vidya kino would be Nier or Lost Odyssey. If you like Final Fantasy I'd definitely recommend Lost Odyssey.

Sorry about textwall, /tv/ sucks to much to bother with.

Thanks for proving my point. nu-Murphy's family has more screen time than old Murphy, and half of it were from his hallucinations when he revisited his old house.

>>382864342
I thought that Samuel L. Jackson's part was funny. Do you get the Sportsbet commercials with him in them in America? In Australia we get those all the time so I thought it was funny to see him do his salesman act on the big screen. And the way that he was always swinging issues to fit his narrative was a spot on representation of American news media. The movie was was more sober but not entirely humourless. Jackie Earle Haley seemed to be having fun whenever he was on screen, and so did Michael Keaton.

And I thought that they actually made good use of the family. The original barely used them but the scene where he goes back and finds his house being sold and freaks out was excellently done. Here having them around to react to his dehumanization worked pretty well and added another dimension to the moral dilemma around rebuilding him. He only wants to stay alive for their sake, but putting him back together as Robocop threatens to destroy him as the man they knew. And the corporation having to balance keeping him effective and keeping him recognizable as Murphy was cool. I thought that they showed a good amount of restraint with the family while still keeping them relevant and doing stuff with them. I actually hate forced family drama more than most and think that it can easily make a movie unwatchable but Robocop made it work.

>>382864617
Robo Flops alone make Robocop 2 worth seeing at least once.

>>382864805
The flashback sequence is something like 2 minutes long and does a good job of showing how jarred he is by suddenly waking up in a hydraulic powered tin can.
>>
>>382864772
yes, gearbox were acting like a complete asshole with their "fuck you got mine" attitude, removing a superior megaton edition, taking the rights for the franchise away from a third-party, not originally involved in the shitstorm between 3d realms and gearbox.

Fuck them, i hope they'll fade away soon

Apparently it's more 'accurate' than Megaton, but otherwise the voice re-recording, lacking any of the other expansions, and also having the minimum requirements on-par with Crysis are absolute bullshit.

You're missing out on ad-kino. You can be watching a Samuel L. Jackson movie, then when it cuts to a commercial you get to keep watching Samuel L. Jackson. I saw the remake on tv so I got to see Jackson playing his newscaster cutting straight to Jackson shilling mobile gambling. He does the exact same thing for both of them.

I wouldn't say the RoboCop remake was AWFUL, just incredibly mediocre. It doesn't do anything particularly well, but it wasn't offensively bad except to not muhs.
>>
>>382865104
They made Murphy interact directly with his family at his own home which is more than what has happened in both robocops.

>>382864929
Jackson's performance come off as uninspired to me IMO, I agree that they capture the feel of American media very well but other than that I felt that the news segments are very shoe-horned and I felt that Jackson was a miscast and they should have casted a charismatic old white guy.

The thing that irks me about the remake's family is that they don't bring too much to the table, they could have made the family extremely fearful of nu-Murphy's new existence, make the wife cold and distant at the dinner table and make his kid absolutely terrified, towards the end nu-Murphy can make a redemption or something similar that amounts to a statement that "I am still the Murphy you know."

instead the scene went "I am a robot now" "okay" and adds nothing to the movie.

it was an acceptable action movie, it's like a DmC scenario but much less controversial here, the game itself is not absolutely trash but it ditches enough elements from the thing that it's suppose to be that it shouldn't be known from the same franchise.

The irony is that the reboot is actually very close to what they originally planned, until they got the suit for the first time and realized it wouldn't allow for all the fast and frantic motions they had initially realized, causing a 6 month delay and removing parts of the suit just to give us that stiff movement we ended up with that defined the 80s Robocop.

Beyond that, I'd say any of the mobile phone FF remakes, since SE just didn't care and literally phoned them in.
