Project Firestart

The Project Firestart remake by Erik Hogan lost much of it's character during the translation to 3D. Controls have been simplified but the creepy atmosphere in the original is nowhere to be found in this production. Classic games are difficult to improve on, and turning them into a first-person shooter only dilutes the experience.

I totally disagree. This remake may lack the visual flair of the original, and the monsters look like mutant teddybears, but I think this is an excellent remake - Scary as hell, and very faithful to the source material. Check this game out - It scared the absolute crap out of me!
