Bayonetta as a shmup; Dead Space on the Game Boy; and Brutal Legend as, what else, a graphical adventure. There isn’t a single miss among this gallery of de-makes done over the past couple of years by Swedish artist Junkboy.
Some of these aren’t new and may have been published elsewhere before. But they’re all here in one place, and despite their small size, are full of detail waiting to be studied.
Red Dead Redemption done in a Gun.Smoke style was kind of funny, at least to me. Capcom’s other western? Red Dead Revolver, which it dropped and sold to Rockstar.

Thursday, August 5, 2010 at 5:47 AMI don’t understand why they felt they had to do Mario Kart, as there was already a version for the SNES ( and seeing as the graphics in these ‘demakes’ are definitely not 8-bit, those are at least SNES or Playstation graphics ).
