Finally, there’s Mass Effect 3. As a game it barely needs any introduction. Gamers played as Captain Shepard and used different weapons to take down aliens threatening their civilization. Thankfully, there’s more to it than that. Users also get to make choices, real choices that affect the outcome. For example, a simple decision to save or not save a particular character could completely make a single player’s ending different from their friends.
It was a novel idea, and the game did well, a high-definition remake for the Xbox One and PS4 is sorely needed. Especially for players who didn’t experience the game the first time. No doubt, there are more high-definition remakes other than The Last of Us in-store for users this console generation an we’ll only see more and more as developers learn how to use and port over work to the Xbox One and PS4.

Couldn’t agree more with 4 of the games on this list (never played L. A. Noire so I can’t comment one way or the other). The other big one I think though that’s missing is Skyrim. With all these games (except GTA V) there are already PC versions with hi-resolution textures and most have great sound resources already they just need an engine port, which could even be done by a good 3rd party development house (esp. for Bioshock Infinite this would be a must). Many of these are also good DLC/In-App Purchase “frameworks” so developers would stand to make a good deal from the IAPs in addition to whatever they could sell the remade version for.

Infinite had a “punk-gothic” storyline and art style? I must have played a different version of the game. lol

Personally, I’d rather have the first two games remade for the next gen consoles. Bioshock Infinite just wasn’t up to par with the first two story-wise. It felt rushed unlike the first Bioshock that I felt told the story flawlessly.
