PC gamers may be going hog wild over the Oblivion remaster right now. But Bethesda's RPG isn't the only game involving people with uncanny faces to get a makeover this week. French publisher Microids just released a very shiny remake of its 1999 game Amerzone – The Explorer's Legacy, the game that kicked off the Syberia series of adventures.
Created by the late French illustrator and game developer Benoît Sokal, Amerzone introduced the world that was later used by the Syberia games, but tells a different, self-contained story. Set in a fictional region of South America inhabited by fantastical creatures, it puts you in the shoes of a nameless journalist tasked with returning the last egg of a species of giant bird to the region, according to the dying wishes of zoology expert Alexandre Valembois.
