Top 10 Video Game Remakes and Remasters of 2024

Hey, guess what? Night Dive Studios has done it again! This time, they’re bringing back a cherished cult classic from the PS2 days: The Thing. While its third-person shooter mechanics weren’t top-of-the-line, it truly shone with its gripping atmosphere and an innovative AI and squad system. This system kept you on your toes, requiring you to be cautious around your NPC allies. If you weren’t careful, they might suspect you of being an alien in disguise. But here’s the kicker: while you were busy surviving at the arctic base from the movie, you couldn’t ignore the odd behavior of your own squad mates. Were they simply scared? Angry? Or had the extraterrestrial threat infiltrated your crew, posing as a friend?

This underlying tension was the heartbeat of the original game. Thankfully, The Thing Remastered breathes new life into the classic by refining the UI, enhancing textures, and making the game smoothly playable on today’s consoles. Now, a whole new generation can experience the spine-chilling creepiness of The Thing.
