Grand Theft Auto V - The Commodore 64 Edition



80's obsessed Youtube user/pixel artisan Majami Hiroz has been at it with his awesome 'demakes' of hit videogame franchises over the last year or two, and his latest creation turns Rockstar's impressive open world title into a masterful Commodore masterpiece.



Spoofing the impressive reveal trailer that introduced us to Michael and the lively landscape of  Los Santos back in 2013, the memorable words of the hilariously dysfunctional father pop up in a series of subtitles with a chiptune version of Small Faces' Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake playing. Compare to the original trailer, above.

The Monster Hunter Gameboy Demake

(Via)
Capcom's Monster Hunter franchise: The epitome of the love/hate game, an international phenom that continues to grow in popularity despite the punishing initial learning curve (I'm a recent convert). Pixel artist Army Of Trolls (Gary J Lucken) took it upon himself to teleport the awesome franchise to a simpler time, with a truly cool 'what if' version of Monster Hunter if it had been released on the Gameboy, complete with a Link's Awakening style.



Featuring a recreation of the camp scene and a few mocked up battle screens, Lucken absolutely nailed the feel of the game if it had been an 8bit title. If this gets Capcom's attention, I can only hope that they add a 'Stabasco' sword in time for the next installment in honor of this awesome pixel tribute.
