I'm surprised that you didn't mention this issue for Deus Ex Human Revolution as well. But at least they didn't promise that your actions in the first game would affect the ending.
Yuzuru A In fairness to Mass Effect 3 and Andromeda, the original ending to me3 got leaked and they had to redo the ending just a few months before release and andromeda was made by the B team.
The thing with Mass Effect 3's ending is that it's so underwhelming. That game could've had 1 hour's worth of just cutscenes after the end, showcasing everything that happened, the consequences of my choices etc. and instead you got a slideshow.
One thing not mentioned was in every ending, Shepard dies, but in the extended edition, if you got a high enough war rating and picked the Destroy (red) ending, you'd get an extra scene they showed in this video of Shepard survivng, though not much more than that.
@@thegeneralissimo470Literally my favourite example of gamer snark was when someone (after the release of ME3) sent 333 cupcakes to Bioware's head office. There were 111 blue, 111 red, and 111 green cupcakes. They were all vanilla flavoured.
@AzureKyle No, that was in the original ending, too. I've found video footage of it from before the extra scenes were released. And I liked the ending with the extended cut. Even if they had a crapload of scenes, everyone would have complained about them and said things like, "Well, my characters wouldn't have done that!" or something. Nothing would've made the ones who tried to SUE BIOWARE happy.

I remember being told by a friend who was there to start with that Louisoix was a major quest giver at the time, so I imagine seeing him get Mega Flared probably struck a nerve.
That mechanic needs more than three options to feel correct in the context of LA Noire. Which is a shame because I really, really wanted to love that game.
@@TransmitHim Exactly. The doubt was there to accuse somebody of lying with no evidence. If you had the evidence, you would choose lie. The Doubt option threw me off so bad I messed up most investigations, and it was only long after I finished the game that I realized what it actually meant. I don't know how good cop or bad cop even makes sense.
@@TheGamerThing I don't know, the doubt option during the landlady interview involves Cole calling her a nosy old hag And in the tutorial, doubt made Cole call Edgar Kaloo, the jeweler, a left wing leading parasite Plus doubt is pretty much putting the screws to a witness/suspect you think is bullshiting you but you lack evidence to prove they're lying
I don't know, from my memory of playing the game, I remember getting surprised by Cole's angry outbursts when pressing Doubt and I'd be like "Woah, Cole. Calm down!" Anyway, I hate talking about the game because it makes me think about the ending, and the ending made me really mad.
I actually finished "wrong side of the tracks" on my first try so I hadn't heard the infamous line "all you had to do was follow the damn train CJ" until years later when it became a meme
I beat it on my 3rd or 4th attempt. I found it annoying, but doable. When I got to "Zero", I got so frustrated that I never bothered to finished the game. I assumed that the rest of the game was going to be equally unfair.
"You fuck young boys, Valdez?" Although I think that was a line for 'Lie' rather than Doubt. And while I did like Truth/Doubt/Lie more than Good Cop/Bad Cop too, they did have a point about Cole sometimes flying off the handle a bit for Doubt.
I often found it difficult to know when Doubt was supposed to be applied; it just never seemed to click for me and felt kind of random. I only got past by save scumming lol. I kind of wished that the scenes hadn't been filmed so as to suggest rightness or wrongness. When you get the right answer, the camera perspective is different, in addition to the musical cue (I know you can turn that off but the camera is still there). It took me out of the immersion of the case by calling attention to my mistakes. Also I stopped paying as close attention cause I knew the music would tell me. If it had been a little less feedback-y, I think I would have stayed more immersed cause I would have had to pay more close attention to the words and clues.
Ah, Deus Ex Human Revolution and his boss battles. I remeber those. The sole reason why "my" Adam had all the stealth augs - and a maximal upgraded shotgun. This layed out the path for my occasional playstyle I named "Shotgun Ninja" *Edit: Oh wow, I think I've never gotten that many like on a comment ever. Well thanks lads and lasses :)
a man of culture. that the perfect name to describe how i played far cry, with a shotgun taking all the enemies by surprise, Zabuza Momochi style if you think about it.
I wouldn’t call the Mass Effect 3 extended cut a rerelease considering it never got released as a full game. If you buy any copy of me3 you still have to download the extended cut DLC
When I first played Human Revolution, my experience with the first boss was throwing a gas canister at him and unloading a shotgun into his spine. I then looted the room and realized that it was supposed to be harder
Totally. I played it when it came out, tried my best to brain bleach the rest out and straight up uninstalled after finishing Citadel. Haven't played a minute of Mass Effect since then though : (
@@seanbroccoli2698 Welp Mass Effect 5 is happening and it continues after the ending of 3. Oh and the destroy ending was the one Bioware choose as the canon one.
Mass effect 3's ending pissed me off so much, I haven't touched a Bioware game since. And given what little I've seen of their games since then, I have no regrets.
I mean, that is a perfect example of why publishers shouldn't push devs to release early. This is a problem that exists across the entire software industry, NMS just happened to be a very big ticket failure. I believe they had even stated the game was not ready for launch, but then they were pushed to launch anyway, and the players were stuck with what they had. It was already a pretty good game after the Next update, I'd say the devs have done as good as they could with what they were given.
@@fredhenry101 Yeah. I love No Man's Sky as a concept, but even now, it's still kind of...empty. I would love to see it grow into the huge, beautiful game it was meant to be.
CthulhuFtagn Eh, I have never excited by procedurally generated and space sim games as they feel too random and empty. But although NMS is not my cup of tea I can say that after the updates it’s now close to the game that the developers promised that got early customers hyped.
"Once again we have evaded Thrawn's grasp! I knew I would be able to beat that-- AAAAAAAAGH!!" And what did we learn here, kids? That's right: Never. Underestimate. Grand. Admiral. Thrawn.
Correct, it was clear that this took place right after WW2 with the GI's returning and LA beginning it's suburb explosion. The cars were all 40's cars with some even earlier.
Because decades are technically named after the tenner they end on. So the 50's go from 41 to 50. Just like your tenth birthday marks the *end* of your tenth year of living, not its beginning.
@@rolfs2165 But that's incorrect. Decades are 0 to 9. Centuries are the ones that count the preceding years. 20th century is 1900 to 2000. The 90s was 1990 to 1999.
Originally it was planned as a WiiU exclusive and physical copy, they release it same day on all platforms via digital distribution and original owners were given a cheaper upgrade price mostly in response to the poor reception they had from that controversy.
@Greed1914 the over head camera didn't suit the new engine that was built for a jungle terrain with trees and uneven terrain but I like the re release that gave you both options because its useful in some areas.
Couldn't agree with this more, remember playing Snake Eater on release and while I enjoyed the game the overhead camera was far too frustrating, but when it came to Subsistence and the HD Collection the more traditional third person camera felt much more fluid and helped make the game my favourite MGS.
Thank you for acknowledging MGS3. I bought it day one and beat it but the entire playthrough I kept thinking this camera just isn't working in this game.
@@mindstouchworlds808 You'd best not watch "Luigi Finally Snaps" by Collegehumor, especially 0:30 - 0:45. You'll be so angry at CH daring to make a joke about a Nintendo game system you won't be able to see straight.
@@ChristophBrinkmann ooh I'll check it out I don't think I've seen it before. The Wii U wasn't a successful console compared to the other systems, but to say no one owned it, is a ridiculous statement. But my console collected dust after I finished playing Smash4 and Bayonetta 2 xD
The main issue with the Water Temple was the constant inventory use. The reason it's confusing for most, however, is that they are just trying to beat it. If you 100% the temple, it's not difficult, just annoying (due to the boots). Simply do everything you can (and visit every room) before changing the water level, then repeat.
Ocarina of Time for the 3DS is literally my favorite Zelda game of all time! Aside from the Water temple, which is an amazing improvement, I also loved the aiming using motion controls!
Just picked up a 3ds and OoT a few weeks ago. Absolutely loving every minute of it just like the original. The motion controls are a very welcome addition. Amazing how fast you can shoot things down now.
Well, you know, maybe after the game, he remained a detective and thus when it came to the 1950s... hold on, someone's telling me something about storm drains.
Honestly, I'm still pissed at Mass Effect 3 ending. Also, I was expecting Final Fantasy XIV to show up here: the whole game is the very best example of a developper saying "we screwed up our game and will re-release it in a better version".

No Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence? It changed the camera from “Literally the most outdated thing in a game set in 1964” to “The standard setter for all other action stealth games”
Abigail Archer-Addams It didn’t make the game unplayable or anything, it was still great (just like a lot of other games in this list), I’m just saying that it was very out of date and clunky for a game that was otherwise so innovate, and that the camera in Subsistence was a noticeable improvement.
I was genuinely halfway through a comment about how my weird lizard brain meant I did the water temple first time in a couple of hours. Well played, Andy. Well played.
Have you guys ever done a 7 weirdest / dumbest loopholes in video games. Example like in the Borderlands 2 where the respawn system called New-U brings you back when *you* die but the developers say they're not cannon so when someone dies in a cutscene the stay dead forever.
I still don't know why they didn't just say Jack locked Roland out of the Nu-U system. It makes way more sense than designing a respawn system, explaining _in game_ how it works, and giving it personality only to go "no it doesn't actually exist canonically".
The extended cut for mass effect 3 wasnt an entire re release of the game it was a free dlc that just expanded on the epilogue cutscenes of the game. It literally changes nothing else in the game. You can’t justify mass effects inclusion in this list.
I loved the water temple and still do. I also, however, loathed having to switch the boots via the menu. The temple design itself (without the boot-menu-switch) is still a great dungeon/puzzle. And, oh yeah, those menu sounds..........uhhhhhg
I also thought the temple wasn't that annoying but the instant toggle in the remaster is quite wonderful. Also helps the hover boots significantly since you need to toggle them off to stop properly.
I remember watching some playthrough videos later and being SURE they must've made the mission easier. Turns out they did! Bloody hell that original version was a nightmare. I did it but it took SO many attempts and definitely relied on some randomness going my way.
Completed the missions many times without the larger fuel tank and the gliding. The best way to beat it was to land on the street, aiming at the vans, and don't stop shooting. No fuel was used when you stood still on the ground
@@johanmolin6382 ah I didn't know that! I probably did land on the street a few times just to get a better shooting angle, but I had no idea it didn't use up fuel so I would just rush off in the air again.
Disagreeing about TIE Fighter being the best StarWars game results in getting to pilot a TIE Fighter in space? Well, guess I'm obligated to disagree and challenge Jane to a duel purely for that reason.
Idk, X-wing and TIE Fighter were both brilliant games unless you don't like flight sims. In which case I vote for TFU2 as best purely because you get to punt Ewoks.
@@desmofan1864 I'd say the best over all still ultimately has to go to KotoR, in my books. Though my personal favorite Star Wars game is Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy. It's one of the few games where not only do the force powers and light saber combat feel like you'd expect them to in a Star Wars game, but the actual blasters were fun to use as well. Also, abusing the fully upgraded force choke to throw enemies to their deaths is still one of my favorite things to do in a game.....
It took me a while to figure out the goat puzzle on Broken Sword, back when we couldn't just look up the solution online. Along with Hitman, Broken Sword is my favourite game series.
I feel like we have now reached peak Jane with here tie fighter verdict Good: Saving the baddies, dark magic and secret orders Bad: ONE OF MY FOE'S HAS ESCAPED MY GRASP I WILL NOT BE SATISFIED UNTIL HE IS REDUCED TO HIS CONSTITUENT ATOMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My canon ending for Mass Effect 3 comes from Fan fiction. Shepard was a woman, dating Garrus, the Geth and EDI didn't die, the Reapers went boom and THAT IS ALL.
Its a shame they never fixed the ending of Deus Ex Human Revolution though... push one of 4 buttons for a video presentation about moral choices (that has no effect cause it gets retconned in the sequel cause Mankind must be Divided)
To be fair, Human Revolution was originally made as a prequel to the first Deus Ex, all while Mankind Divided, as much I like the gameplay, can be skippable without affecting Deus Ex 1 that much.
The ending of Mass Effect 3 will always be controversial. Not necessarily for its content, or lack of it; but for the eye-opening way gaming journalists reacted to the rightful indignation of gamers, who felt they had been short-changed.
I would say 999: Nine Hours; Nine Persons; Nine Doors, even though I haven't finished the updated version. It may not seem like it to most people, but you lose something very important with the dual screen nature of the original release, and I hear the final puzzle is a poor replacement for it. I really don't know how it wasn't handled better.
Another example, Halo Combat Evolved and the port to pc/Anniversary edition. The anniversary edition was made based on the pc port which screwed up the lighting, turning basically all the bump mapping in the game making off and everything look extremely flat. It also added fog in some parts of the game intentionally or no and the updated graphics has incorporated the fog which was never intended. Most notable bump mapping issue is with the ground on Truth And Reconciliation (mission 3). The floor just looks like a flat brown surface yet in the original it looks like actual dirt. There’s a minor, kinda fix if you aim at where the bump mapping should be and turn your flashlight on. It’ll look as intended but only for the small section you’re shining your light on and the flashlight has a limited battery
Sure the water temple change was nice, but the re-release also reduced how often Navi yells at you which makes the entire game more bearable rather than just one part.
I use a looping recording of that audio as all of my alarms to wake up in the morning because no matter what volume it is it triggers an intense anger response in my brain that immediately forces me awake. It's torture, but at least some good came out of that horror.
5:12 this...first time around I had invested everything in sneak and persuasion, used non-lethal weapons...then got to the first boss fight and realized I was screwed. 17:15 Femshep is best Shep, get that fake one outa here.
Umm with Jedi Academy and KOTOR I would disagree about TIE fighter as the best Star Wars game but I don't want to fight Jane I'm reasonably certain she can ELDRITCH BLAST in real life
There also are the Force Unleashed games /cough/ sorry, I need that examined. Although I'm pretty intrigued by the new game. And I liked Jedi Outcast's story over Jedi Academy, personally. Although a game that provides you from the very beginning with a lightsaber and later two wielding / double blade can get away with literally everything in my experience.
The only fix the Water Temple needed was moving the Iron Boots to an item slot. The actual navigation was always fairly straightforward otherwise. I've always liked it for being one of the few dungeons in Ocarina to actually use verticality in its design.
My first playthrough of ME3: the holochild laid out the deal and I said "I reject these choices." and he said "Then the cycle will continue." and instead of Buzz Aldrin telling another story about the Shepard after a wash of Cornetto-flavoured-light I got a video of a garden world, untouched terrain spreading to the horizon except for one of the Glyph beacons Liara talks about. Would have been a bitter sweet ending if the game didn't then immediately Quick Load to the beginning of the holochild conversation.
It makes no sense, however. WHY would Shepard spend so much time building the Crucible (that's what war assets, alliances, and the majority of the game are for), and suddenly refuse to use it because of a crappy pop-up?! (Mass Effect's term for annoying holograms). Whole story of the game is about building a weapon to stop the Reapers. Why not use it?! Control is something Illusive man tried to do. Game is clear between picking his or Anderson's side. Then synthesis is Saren's way. Sure, everything was poorly-explained but each of these options makes more sense than literally refusing to use the weapon for no reason after it took so much to get there!..
@@KasumiRINA Quite frankly, I was just pressing the bottom option in the conversation hoping for more options. Refusing the choices was an accident but it led to a cutscene few people ever saw. So calm down, no need to leave a 500 word essay on the merits of Mass Effect.
I have a nagging feeling that Rockstar published and probably paid for/funded/produced LA Noire but it was actually a totally different developer that made it.
Having recently replayed Zelda Ocarina of Time on both the original N64 release and the 3DS version I still prefer the N64 version even including the Water Temple. I just love having the use of the C buttons and A button for playing the Ocarina I guess.
Wait, so all we have to do to get a personal PvP match in TIE fighters with Jane is to call another Star Wars game better? Man, I sure do love Star Wars: Masters of Teras Kasi!
...You know the bit in an early Simpsons episode where Bart presents Homer with a report card with all the Ds switched to As, and Homer replies "You don't think much of me, do you, boy? You know, a 'D' turns into a 'B' so easily. You just got greedy."? There were so many believable options. Republic Commando. X-Wing versus TIE Fighter. One of those early wireframe games. But you just HAD to go for "the one where you can be a Gammorean called Hoar". (...That said, I am 100% sure at least a few dozen people have Teras Kasi as their probably nostalgia-based favourite.)
@@ZenoDLC No, I just meant that it seems a bit weird that it's been almost a *month* since the latest LiS episode..but they just didn't have the time to play it, I guess *:(*
@@michaelandreipalon359 Ah. I didn't remember when exactly it came out. Thought it released right after DA:O. Thanks for correcting me. (edited for spelling mistakes)
I personally think the Dark Link boss battle was the most awesome part of Ocarina of Time. Completely left field approach to battle when compared to the rest of the game and forcing us to adapt. Loved it.
Got 3 minutes in wondering why the abysmal Silent Hill remake wasn't on this list before I re-read the title. I may still feel silly, but if you make a "7 Games Screwed-Up With a Re-Release" it will be worth it.
Modern warfare remastered? It added the time paradox achievement allowing you to not only kill inram zahkov but also kill Makorov...makorov was shown to be present in MW3 burning the mission to shoot zahkov but he wasent programmed into the original mission in CoD4....adding him to the mission let us throw the CoD timeline into wack and save Soap
@Greig91 It's been so long I forget the reasons why Bioware lost SWs KOTOR. But yeah, I refused to play Mass Effect at the time because it was a fair forgery of KOTOR. Looking back after all these years; I still stand by that.
I dunno.. I kinda liked the original voice.. the new one really surprised me. His original voice just sounded much creepier and unsettling and I think it fit his design with that wicked looking mask.. but I suppose a villain as powerful as he was supposed to be needed a stronger more impressive voice.. and the old one did kinda make it super obvious he was all evil and stuff so it was a bit wierd NPCs found him heroic
@@lunarlunatick I think you might have that last point backwards. Jack's old voice was nasally and less menacing, but it made his ability to manipulate the Hero of Oakvale more believable; he sounded like an arrogant twat, but that's normal for heroes. The voice he was given in the re-release sounds inhumanly deep, like he was some kind of demon from another dimension which is exactly what he is, it just screams "this guy is the villain and the protagonist is a fucking idiot for not piecing it together!"
I honestly found the water temple in Ocarina of Time to be confusing, but not impossible. It was very doable. Unlike the original Link's Awakening where if you open the wrong door, you get stuck in the dungeon because you don't have enough keys and have to start over.
Isn't that more of a short sequel than a rerelease though? It didn't help much though, considering that instead of just having all guns have lights on them by some means like they should have, it just made it so you had to swap to the pistol constantly instead of the flashlight.
David Cross is pretty funny dude. He was the fish in Megamind and many other roles. His standup is always hilarious and very different from other comedians.
Okay, one MAJOR fact to drop about Supply Lines. In the original, day one release versions of San Andreas the fuel bar doesn't decrease any quicker if you hold down the accelerate button. In other words, the "fuel gauge" is actually a timer, meaning you can use accelerate all you want without using all the "fuel". After reading about this, I tested it out on my day one PS2 copy, and it works. It makes that mission SO much easier. If only I'd known this back in 2004. I would have saved myself a controller...
You mean, refusing to use the Crucible for what it was intended and not stopping the Reapers is "good"?.. After you spend whole game building that giant weapon, simply giving up?!
@@KasumiRINA It's not giving up, but it is an ultimate sacrifice. The other three endings all require some sort of major permanent compromise, as the reapers unflinchingly state they intended. The 4th ending dooms the species in the galaxy as it is, but as the post-game shows, it allows the next cycle to beat the reapers outright. It doesn't make the endeavor any less heroic, everything you do you did under the reasonable belief that it was for the greater good. It was a deception, however, and if Shepard can't realize they were wrong, that they were following the reapers plan all along, the reapers ultimately win.
Idk it’s a lot better than the original ending, with things like actual character interaction, however brief, and an opportunity for someone to explain the god damn point of the colour filters. It’s still bad, but it’s better than day one ending.
It's crazy how little research these guys do. "L.A. Noire was a game from Grand Theft Auto Developers Rockstar Games," No, that's not true at all. Also, 1950s? Looks like this video needs a re-release.

Rockstar should never had messed with the game, it isn't their game to begin with.
“Truth, Doubt, Lie” made more sense then “Good Cop, Bad Cop, & Accuse”. Which makes to problem that existed even worse.

Although I think that was a line for 'Lie' rather than Doubt.
And while I did like Truth/Doubt/Lie more than Good Cop/Bad Cop too, they did have a point about Cole sometimes flying off the handle a bit for Doubt.
I often found it difficult to know when Doubt was supposed to be applied; it just never seemed to click for me and felt kind of random. I only got past by save scumming lol.
I kind of wished that the scenes hadn't been filmed so as to suggest rightness or wrongness. When you get the right answer, the camera perspective is different, in addition to the musical cue (I know you can turn that off but the camera is still there). It took me out of the immersion of the case by calling attention to my mistakes. Also I stopped paying as close attention cause I knew the music would tell me. If it had been a little less feedback-y, I think I would have stayed more immersed cause I would have had to pay more close attention to the words and clues.
Ah, Deus Ex Human Revolution and his boss battles. I remeber those. The sole reason why "my" Adam had all the stealth augs - and a maximal upgraded shotgun. This layed out the path for my occasional playstyle I named "Shotgun Ninja"

I wouldn’t call the Mass Effect 3 extended cut a rerelease considering it never got released as a full game. If you buy any copy of me3 you still have to download the extended cut DLC
DLC is generous - it's really more of a content patch

No Man's Sky aka the longest rerelease ever
Caitlin RC "We'll get there eventually"-Quote from No Man's Sky developers.
:(
I mean, that is a perfect example of why publishers shouldn't push devs to release early. This is a problem that exists across the entire software industry, NMS just happened to be a very big ticket failure. I believe they had even stated the game was not ready for launch, but then they were pushed to launch anyway, and the players were stuck with what they had. It was already a pretty good game after the Next update, I'd say the devs have done as good as they could with what they were given.
@@fredhenry101 Yeah. I love No Man's Sky as a concept, but even now, it's still kind of...empty. I would love to see it grow into the huge, beautiful game it was meant to be.

L.A. Noire is based in the 40's. 1947 to br exact. Why does everyone say 50's? Litterally everyone. It said right in the game, 47...... 😉
Correct, it was clear that this took place right after WW2 with the GI's returning and LA beginning it's suburb explosion. The cars were all 40's cars with some even earlier.
They probably think early fifties, although they’re wrong it’s a understandable mistake.
Because decades are technically named after the tenner they end on. So the 50's go from 41 to 50. Just like your tenth birthday marks the *end* of your tenth year of living, not its beginning.
@@rolfs2165 But that's incorrect. Decades are 0 to 9. Centuries are the ones that count the preceding years. 20th century is 1900 to 2000. The 90s was 1990 to 1999.
And it wasn't made by Rockstar.

Deux Ex: HR Director's Cut did get a release on all major systems; I have it on my PC.
Originally it was planned as a WiiU exclusive and physical copy, they release it same day on all platforms via digital distribution and original owners were given a cheaper upgrade price mostly in response to the poor reception they had from that controversy.
I was about to say, how did these guys not realize this? I've owned it on PC for several years now...
Metal Gear Solid 3's overhead camera in the original release.
@Greed1914 the over head camera didn't suit the new engine that was built for a jungle terrain with trees and uneven terrain but I like the re release that gave you both options because its useful in some areas.
Couldn't agree with this more, remember playing Snake Eater on release and while I enjoyed the game the overhead camera was far too frustrating, but when it came to Subsistence and the HD Collection the more traditional third person camera felt much more fluid and helped make the game my favourite MGS.
Thank you for acknowledging MGS3. I bought it day one and beat it but the entire playthrough I kept thinking this camera just isn't working in this game.

The main issue with the Water Temple was the constant inventory use. The reason it's confusing for most, however, is that they are just trying to beat it. If you 100% the temple, it's not difficult, just annoying (due to the boots). Simply do everything you can (and visit every room) before changing the water level, then repeat.
Ocarina of Time for the 3DS is literally my favorite Zelda game of all time! Aside from the Water temple, which is an amazing improvement, I also loved the aiming using motion controls!
Just picked up a 3ds and OoT a few weeks ago. Absolutely loving every minute of it just like the original. The motion controls are a very welcome addition. Amazing how fast you can shoot things down now.
Shame that Majora's Mask 3D is a travesty, though Wind Waker HD is another good improvement.

@@LazzyVamples Me neither. Seemed okay to me.
Abigail Archer-Addams
It didn’t make the game unplayable or anything, it was still great (just like a lot of other games in this list), I’m just saying that it was very out of date and clunky for a game that was otherwise so innovate, and that the camera in Subsistence was a noticeable improvement.
I was genuinely halfway through a comment about how my weird lizard brain meant I did the water temple first time in a couple of hours. Well played, Andy. Well played.
Have you guys ever done a 7 weirdest / dumbest loopholes in video games. Example like in the Borderlands 2 where the respawn system called New-U brings you back when *you* die but the developers say they're not cannon so when someone dies in a cutscene the stay dead forever.
I still don't know why they didn't just say Jack locked Roland out of the Nu-U system. It makes way more sense than designing a respawn system, explaining _in game_ how it works, and giving it personality only to go "no it doesn't actually exist canonically".
The extended cut for mass effect 3 wasnt an entire re release of the game it was a free dlc that just expanded on the epilogue cutscenes of the game. It literally changes nothing else in the game. You can’t justify mass effects inclusion in this list.
I loved the water temple and still do. I also, however, loathed having to switch the boots via the menu. The temple design itself (without the boot-menu-switch) is still a great dungeon/puzzle.
And, oh yeah, those menu sounds..........uhhhhhg
I also thought the temple wasn't that annoying but the instant toggle in the remaster is quite wonderful. Also helps the hover boots significantly since you need to toggle them off to stop properly.
Ah yes Tar Pits...Cole Phelps one weakness.

I thought his weakness was lounge singers.

Oh god, I'm getting Supply Lines flashbacks. I can feel myself getting angry just watching that stupid plane
I remember watching some playthrough videos later and being SURE they must've made the mission easier. Turns out they did! Bloody hell that original version was a nightmare. I did it but it took SO many attempts and definitely relied on some randomness going my way.
Completed the missions many times without the larger fuel tank and the gliding. The best way to beat it was to land on the street, aiming at the vans, and don't stop shooting. No fuel was used when you stood still on the ground
@@johanmolin6382 ah I didn't know that! I probably did land on the street a few times just to get a better shooting angle, but I had no idea it didn't use up fuel so I would just rush off in the air again.

Disagreeing about TIE Fighter being the best StarWars game results in getting to pilot a TIE Fighter in space? Well, guess I'm obligated to disagree and challenge Jane to a duel purely for that reason.

In which case I vote for TFU2 as best purely because you get to punt Ewoks.
@@desmofan1864 I'd say the best over all still ultimately has to go to KotoR, in my books. Though my personal favorite Star Wars game is Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy. It's one of the few games where not only do the force powers and light saber combat feel like you'd expect them to in a Star Wars game, but the actual blasters were fun to use as well. Also, abusing the fully upgraded force choke to throw enemies to their deaths is still one of my favorite things to do in a game.....
Strange. Why is Battlefront II by Pandemic Studios and the KotOR duology not mentioned in this comment section?
We have star wars squadrons now
Basically TIE fighter 2.0
SUPPLY LINE is OPTIONAL!? I remember spending whole night on that mission alone.

Yes, but we are completionists. We have no choice on the matter.
How about Dark Souls Remastered? It fixed the lava textures in Lost Izalith, and (to an extent) the frame rate issues in Blighttown.
Varun Chaturvedi it also ruined everything else
It took me a while to figure out the goat puzzle on Broken Sword, back when we couldn't just look up the solution online.
Along with Hitman, Broken Sword is my favourite game series.
God, I remember the satisfaction of finally beating Supply Lines back in the original San Andreas...
I didn't know this was that bad of a mission. I beat it as a child.
As a child with the PS2 i spent like a week trying to finish it 3 hours each day and you do the math
It was hard for a reason lol I beat it as a kid lol
Same, even though i beat it as akid
Took me and a buddy a couple hours of heavy drinking to beat it. Felt pretty great about ourselves until we woke up the next day.

Its a shame they never fixed the ending of Deus Ex Human Revolution though... push one of 4 buttons for a video presentation about moral choices (that has no effect cause it gets retconned in the sequel cause Mankind must be Divided)
To be fair, Human Revolution was originally made as a prequel to the first Deus Ex, all while Mankind Divided, as much I like the gameplay, can be skippable without affecting Deus Ex 1 that much.
With how long Rockstar takes to make each game you'd think they'd spends some time on decent controls.

@@DCGMatthew1 I find the controls in both GTA & RDR clunky and unrefined, but you millage may vary.
@@zaqzilla1 i fend them very easy to control and use, in both games.
Get ready to square up because battlefront 2 is obviously superior
Just to clarify the original battle front 2, not the more recent one.
The ending of Mass Effect 3 will always be controversial. Not necessarily for its content, or lack of it; but for the eye-opening way gaming journalists reacted to the rightful indignation of gamers, who felt they had been short-changed.
Video where re release downgrades the original game example Silent Hill Hd Collection Fog
Another example: Trackmania2 Canyon.
I would say 999: Nine Hours; Nine Persons; Nine Doors, even though I haven't finished the updated version. It may not seem like it to most people, but you lose something very important with the dual screen nature of the original release, and I hear the final puzzle is a poor replacement for it. I really don't know how it wasn't handled better.
Another example, Halo Combat Evolved and the port to pc/Anniversary edition.
The anniversary edition was made based on the pc port which screwed up the lighting, turning basically all the bump mapping in the game making off and everything look extremely flat. It also added fog in some parts of the game intentionally or no and the updated graphics has incorporated the fog which was never intended.
Most notable bump mapping issue is with the ground on Truth And Reconciliation (mission 3). The floor just looks like a flat brown surface yet in the original it looks like actual dirt. There’s a minor, kinda fix if you aim at where the bump mapping should be and turn your flashlight on. It’ll look as intended but only for the small section you’re shining your light on and the flashlight has a limited battery
Sure the water temple change was nice, but the re-release also reduced how often Navi yells at you which makes the entire game more bearable rather than just one part.
Hey!..Listen!
I use a looping recording of that audio as all of my alarms to wake up in the morning because no matter what volume it is it triggers an intense anger response in my brain that immediately forces me awake. It's torture, but at least some good came out of that horror.

Umm with Jedi Academy and KOTOR I would disagree about TIE fighter as the best Star Wars game but I don't want to fight Jane I'm reasonably certain she can ELDRITCH BLAST in real life
There also are the Force Unleashed games /cough/ sorry, I need that examined.
Although I'm pretty intrigued by the new game.
And I liked Jedi Outcast's story over Jedi Academy, personally. Although a game that provides you from the very beginning with a lightsaber and later two wielding / double blade can get away with literally everything in my experience.
Jane, I disagree. TIE Fighter isn't the best Star Wars game, it's clearly Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.
Ur a wise man
ABSO-INTERCOURSING-LUTELY - though I will concede that both tie-fighter and x-wing were pretty awesome
The only fix the Water Temple needed was moving the Iron Boots to an item slot. The actual navigation was always fairly straightforward otherwise. I've always liked it for being one of the few dungeons in Ocarina to actually use verticality in its design.
My first playthrough of ME3: the holochild laid out the deal and I said "I reject these choices." and he said "Then the cycle will continue." and instead of Buzz Aldrin telling another story about the Shepard after a wash of Cornetto-flavoured-light I got a video of a garden world, untouched terrain spreading to the horizon except for one of the Glyph beacons Liara talks about.
Would have been a bitter sweet ending if the game didn't then immediately Quick Load to the beginning of the holochild conversation.
It makes no sense, however. WHY would Shepard spend so much time building the Crucible (that's what war assets, alliances, and the majority of the game are for), and suddenly refuse to use it because of a crappy pop-up?! (Mass Effect's term for annoying holograms). Whole story of the game is about building a weapon to stop the Reapers. Why not use it?!
Control is something Illusive man tried to do. Game is clear between picking his or Anderson's side. Then synthesis is Saren's way. Sure, everything was poorly-explained but each of these options makes more sense than literally refusing to use the weapon for no reason after it took so much to get there!..
@@KasumiRINA Quite frankly, I was just pressing the bottom option in the conversation hoping for more options. Refusing the choices was an accident but it led to a cutscene few people ever saw. So calm down, no need to leave a 500 word essay on the merits of Mass Effect.
I have a nagging feeling that Rockstar published and probably paid for/funded/produced LA Noire but it was actually a totally different developer that made it.
Having recently replayed Zelda Ocarina of Time on both the original N64 release and the 3DS version I still prefer the N64 version even including the Water Temple.
I just love having the use of the C buttons and A button for playing the Ocarina I guess.
Thank God. I'm not the only one. I mean sure the water level was tedious, but overall I didn't find it the most difficult dungeon in the game.
Wait, so all we have to do to get a personal PvP match in TIE fighters with Jane is to call another Star Wars game better? Man, I sure do love Star Wars: Masters of Teras Kasi!
...You know the bit in an early Simpsons episode where Bart presents Homer with a report card with all the Ds switched to As, and Homer replies "You don't think much of me, do you, boy?
You know, a 'D' turns into a 'B' so easily. You just got greedy."?
There were so many believable options. Republic Commando. X-Wing versus TIE Fighter. One of those early wireframe games. But you just HAD to go for "the one where you can be a Gammorean called Hoar".
(...That said, I am 100% sure at least a few dozen people have Teras Kasi as their probably nostalgia-based favourite.)

No Doom 3? In the original version, you had to choose between a flashlight or your gun. In the re-release, you can both see and shoot.
I am not going to say I love the Water Temple. But you dag gum feel like you earn something by the time you're done.
It does give a feeling accomplishment once you get that heart piece.
Got 3 minutes in wondering why the abysmal Silent Hill remake wasn't on this list before I re-read the title. I may still feel silly, but if you make a "7 Games Screwed-Up With a Re-Release" it will be worth it.
Surprisingly they havent already done that
Modern warfare remastered?
It added the time paradox achievement allowing you to not only kill inram zahkov but also kill Makorov...makorov was shown to be present in MW3 burning the mission to shoot zahkov but he wasent programmed into the original mission in CoD4....adding him to the mission let us throw the CoD timeline into wack and save Soap

Fable! With the lost chapters they fixed jacks voice before he sounded more like a school bully than a threatening villain
I dunno.. I kinda liked the original voice.. the new one really surprised me. His original voice just sounded much creepier and unsettling and I think it fit his design with that wicked looking mask.. but I suppose a villain as powerful as he was supposed to be needed a stronger more impressive voice.. and the old one did kinda make it super obvious he was all evil and stuff so it was a bit wierd NPCs found him heroic
@@lunarlunatick I think you might have that last point backwards. Jack's old voice was nasally and less menacing, but it made his ability to manipulate the Hero of Oakvale more believable; he sounded like an arrogant twat, but that's normal for heroes. The voice he was given in the re-release sounds inhumanly deep, like he was some kind of demon from another dimension which is exactly what he is, it just screams "this guy is the villain and the protagonist is a fucking idiot for not piecing it together!"
FF XIV - one of the greatest "oh, we did bad, we re-release better"
moments in gaming history !
I honestly found the water temple in Ocarina of Time to be confusing, but not impossible. It was very doable. Unlike the original Link's Awakening where if you open the wrong door, you get stuck in the dungeon because you don't have enough keys and have to start over.
What about Doom 3 making the “Duct Tape” mod canonical in the BFG Edition.
Isn't that more of a short sequel than a rerelease though? It didn't help much though, considering that instead of just having all guns have lights on them by some means like they should have, it just made it so you had to swap to the pistol constantly instead of the flashlight.

David Cross is pretty funny dude. He was the fish in Megamind and many other roles. His standup is always hilarious and very different from other comedians.
Okay, one MAJOR fact to drop about Supply Lines.
In the original, day one release versions of San Andreas the fuel bar doesn't decrease any quicker if you hold down the accelerate button.
In other words, the "fuel gauge" is actually a timer, meaning you can use accelerate all you want without using all the "fuel".
After reading about this, I tested it out on my day one PS2 copy, and it works.
It makes that mission SO much easier.
If only I'd known this back in 2004. I would have saved myself a controller...
“fixed” is a strong word for what happened with the ME3 ending...
Mass Effect 3's 4th ending was, realistically, the 'good' ending.
You mean, refusing to use the Crucible for what it was intended and not stopping the Reapers is "good"?.. After you spend whole game building that giant weapon, simply giving up?!
@@KasumiRINA It's not giving up, but it is an ultimate sacrifice. The other three endings all require some sort of major permanent compromise, as the reapers unflinchingly state they intended. The 4th ending dooms the species in the galaxy as it is, but as the post-game shows, it allows the next cycle to beat the reapers outright. It doesn't make the endeavor any less heroic, everything you do you did under the reasonable belief that it was for the greater good. It was a deception, however, and if Shepard can't realize they were wrong, that they were following the reapers plan all along, the reapers ultimately win.
Another Zelda issue fixed in rerelease: Windwaker's pictures/figurines
“Expanded ending” does literally nothing to fix the problems of mass effect 3
Yeah only the citadel dlc coming out made the trilogy feel actually complete to me. Day 1 ME3 was a real letdown.
Idk it’s a lot better than the original ending, with things like actual character interaction, however brief, and an opportunity for someone to explain the god damn point of the colour filters. It’s still bad, but it’s better than day one ending.
I feel like I was the on,y person who didn’t mind the end of mass effect
It's crazy how little research these guys do. "L.A. Noire was a game from Grand Theft Auto Developers Rockstar Games," No, that's not true at all. Also, 1950s?
Looks like this video needs a re-release.
