The Thing Remastered
We’ve written before about Atari’s avaricious acquisitions of game developers to intellectual and even an investment into emulation machine the Polymega. One of those acquisitions was of Nightdive Studios, the remaster maniacs with their Kex engine; and the newest game that Nightdive is working on: The Thing Remastered.
Released over two decades ago back in 2002, The Thing was a pretty good (I enjoyed it enough) horror game with a third-person camera for all the running and shooting necessary to survive as you and your team battle the body-breaking horrors of the Thing.
Although The Thing Remastered doesn’t have a release date yet, it is coming to PS4/5, box Xbox One/Series, Switch and PC.
Playing videogames, writing about videogames, considering videogames—that about sums it up. Videogames are the one hobby that I’ve kept since I was only little, zapping ducks on the NES or knocking out MR. X. And when I’m not enjoying classics from the bit generation of games or checking out those earliest of polygons, I’m probably playing something from today’s age of modern gaming: if I’m not complaining about it. Something I’m doing at the moment? Returning to the black hole that is Football Manager.
