Best: Resident Evil Remakes. They succeed in what I think is most important keeping the feel from the original games while still feeling fresh.
Another game that is they did good job on is Starcraft. This is on the other end of the spectrum where they pretty much kept the original as is but made a graphical overhaul.
Worst: Warcraft 3 Reforged. Look, they might have fixed many of the issues this game had. But i will never forgive them for killing of official ways to play the original online when this one hit. It basically just took my favorite PC game away for me. I game I had played for 15+ years when reforged was released
The Settlers 2 for Nintendo DS. This is more of a port than a remake, but they had to build new controls and such at least. Damn this thing is buggy. Since I loved the original release i really tried to play the game on my DS, but no matter what I did, I could not get the boats to work properly and never got past the fifth (or sixth) chapter. Tried every trick in the book to win without the ship. Pretty much everything in this game breaks at some point in a normal playing session. Stay away.
