The world's best counterfeit games

The fan-made games that put the devs to shame

Neo Sonic Universe

Ladies and gentlemen, we present the holy grail. A decent new Sonic game. Not only is Neo Sonic Universe fully 2D as nature intended, it's designer has the exact same appreciation of what made Sonic The Hedgehog great in the first place that Sega now seems to have completely lost.

Remembering that the early Sonic games weren't about the speed (seriously, they weren't), he's made an actual platformer that involves (shock!) actual platforming, wisely limiting the mach 5 sprints to little tension relievers after tricky jumping sections. No longer is victory a mere case of gluing down the right button on the d-pad and falling asleep (Sonic Advance 2 and 3, see us after class). This is a Sonic game you have to play.

Naturally, we'd have prefered the Mega Drive/Genesis sprites over the goofy-looking GBA ones, but hell, you can't have everything. Pick this one up at Sonic Fan Games HQ and keep your fingers crossed that Sonic Unleashed goes in a similar direction.

Black Mesa mod for HL2 indeed looks jaw dropping, better than many games out there (even if it's simply remaking an older game with a new engine), really promising stuff. By the way there's another trailer for it that looks even better.

And goddamn that Chrono Trigger 3D remake looked outstanding, too bad it got cancelled. C'est la vie.

square, so foolish in their age! they already knew that chrono trigger was good enough to resell without much content upgrade...but WTF! Tragedy is the right word.

wat would be pretty cool if they did a whole redone half life game with dlc packs and all.

Why the heck didn't Square wait for those guys to finish and then say, "Sell us the game for $250,000 and we'll forget that we could totally pwn you in court"?

At least that way it would get released, Square would make money, the fans would rejoice and the developers could at least take solace in their hard work not being wasted.

Man I loved Chrono Trigger and I totally agree with baggins although 259k isn't alot a million would have been more than fair

That Chrono Resurrection looked insane. They should have just changed some names of characters and places and told Square where to put their legal team. Especially after even the work it would have taken to make what they had, it kinda sucks that square didn't at least offer them jobs.

I would love to play all of these games, but my computer sucks. However, I must say, one fan game I liked that wasn't on this list was the Pokemon Fire Red Hack that changed the game to be the Generation 2 games. It's pretty redundant with HG/SS coming out soon, but it was still fun.

Chrono Resurrection looks orgasmic (I just finished beating Chrono Trigger again,) I would have loved to play that. The rest of the games look really good too, I am about to start getting them all, with the exception of Sonic. I don't trust any sonic games anymore, fan made or not.

Im both disappointed and angry that Chrono Resurrection never make it. :(

The evil wizards at squareenix just want to milk the classic franchise with more 'ports' and dull remakes.
