* In 2008 TIGSource held the Bootleg Demakes Competition. Beside taking both major and indie games into consideration, many of the resulting games' titles are very hilarious. Due to a recent site restructuring, the index page of the compo is unfortunately no more, but [http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?board=22.0 the dedicated forum is still up] and, beside torrents of the complete archive, it’s worth tracking some games that were eventually updated. There's also [http://iceyboard.no-ip.org/projects/demakes_list/ a list of the games and their inspirators.]
** ''[[Gang Garrison 2]]'', an excellent demake of ''[[Team Fortress 2]]'', has gone on to become the most popular of the bunch, also thanks its posting in 4Chan, where some users started modding it without consent. The authors, however, welcomed their contributions and the game has been constantly updated.
** ''[httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20130806181854/http://tikipod.com/rockboshers/ Rock Boshers]'' is a [[ZX Spectrum]]-ified ''[[Red Faction]]'' (the original FPS, not the more recent episodes), so retro it has a Victorian [[Steampunk]] theme.
** ''[http://superflatgames.com/wordpress/?page_id=139 Soundless Mountain II]'' translates ''[[Silent Hill 2]]'' superbly. But don't get too attached to it, since, sadly, it covers only the first phases of the story.
** ''[http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=2391.0 Super 3D Portals 6]'': ''[[Portal (series)|Portal]]'' as a genuine Atari2600 ROM! Requires two joysticks to be played but the gameplay is translated superbly.
