10 Video Game Remasters That Were Utter Failures

10. Putty Squad HD

If you're looking at the screen right now and saying "what the hell is Putty Squad" then don't worry my friend as I am right there with you, but thanks to my research into this ugly, ugly game, I have even more questions.

Mostly centering around why this game got a HD Remaster and why it was so shockingly poor, but also because the timeline to this remaster is so convoluted that my brain turned to putty by the end of it.

You see the original game "Putty" was developed originally for the Amiga, it did really well and so a sequel was commissioned, enter "Putty Squad" which was set to drop around 1994-95 on Super Ninteno, MS-DOS, Amiga and Mega Drive. Of all these versions only the Super Nintendo version made it to market despite other formats actually being fully completed and being sent out for review.

Doesn't sound too complex right? Well strangely in 2013, to celebrate it's 30th birthday System 3 the developers released the AMIGA version of the game on their website, and this HD remake dropped BEFORE this Amiga version did.

Meaning that the HD remaster technically came out before the game was even launched. Anyway history lesson over, is the game good?

Well no. That's why I spent so long talking about ANYTHING ELSE.
