E3 2016: These 5 classic PC games are just dying to be remastered

By Kane Fulton

We could even call it ‘The Skyrim Treatment’

Are you ready to go again, dragonborn? Five years after The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim’s launch on consoles and the PC, Bethesda announced a remastered version for this generation of machines in October on the E3 2016 stage. Not only will northern Tamriel look much prettier than you remember it, Skyrim Special Edition is set to get mod support on consoles for the first time.

It’s hard to remember a remaster that’s generated as much excitement in recent years, save for Final Fantasy VII, and it has me pondering what other PC games would benefit from an overhaul. The platform has an embarrassment of riches to choose from, but here are five classics that should be developers’ first picks.
