Indie game designer Eric Ruth is currently working on a Left 4 Dead “de-make” featuring 8-bit graphics and sounds and each map and campaign from the original game. Eric just wrapped up on the first mission, “No Mercy” and he expects the game to be completed by early January 2010 and he’ll release it as a free download for PC.
Although, since the game only allows for 2 players as opposed to 4, shouldn’t it be called Left 2 Die?

Phalanx is a shoot’em up game that was released back in the day for the SNES, GBA, and the Sharp X68000. Although I never actually played the original game myself, I distinctly remember the amazing box art with the banjo-wielding bearded dude.
The WiiWare remake will be based on the X68000 version with some new content thrown in and it’s scheduled to drop in Japan this winter for 500 Nintendo Points.
Here’s a gameplay video of the old Sharp version…
You can check out some screenshots of the WiiWare version here.
The Wu-Tang Clan are awesome enough on their own, but when you throw Legos into the mix, you get a whole new level of awesomeness. The video for Da Mystery of Chessboxin’ has been remade by Davo, who also did the short clip for Killer Tape (above) and a shot-for-shot “Director’s Cut” of Da Mystery of Chessboxin’ which breaks down the animations and makes you appreciate it a little more.
