You can get four Double Fine games for free!
Especially Grim Fandango. Such a great experience:

Man these are all super solid B+ tier to S right here.

Day of the Tentacle: S
Full Throttle: A
Grim Fandango A-
Broken Age B+

It's weird they describe them as "Double Fine" games, since 3/4 are Lucasarts. You wouldn't really say Halo CE is a 343 game, or Last of Us is a bluepoint game…

Oddly enough, a lot of marketing for Death Stranding on PC hardly mentions KojiPro, in favor of highlighting it as a 505 Games release. Even from KojiPro’s official Twitter!

No, but you might describe MCC as a 343 game and that's what we're looking at here. DF got the rights to do remasters.

"might"?

Heh. If you described it as anything else, you'd be wrong. ;)

I'd say MCC goes beyond just a remastering. They redid all the graphics, cutscenes, audio, etc. It's closer to a remake. In which case sure. Call it a 343 game since so much changed. But a pure remaster doesn't change much, and these DF remasters were. The biggest change is point and click support in Grim Fandango, which actually makes the game playable :-p
