;(E):This is an official '''e'''mulated release. Usually the ROM can be extracted and played in another emulator.<!--
;(U):This port may '''u'''pgrade some components, which can potentially change the experience. -->
;(R):This is a '''r'''emake, which can dramatically differ from the original game.;(U):This is a community-made '''u'''nofficial port.<!--

However, sometimes ports were sloppy, and prone to bugs and/or optimization issues at sales' start (e.g. ''Grand Theft Auto IV'' and ''Batman: Arkham Knight'') or right up to today (like ''Saints Row 2''). Every port has its own troubles so it has to be approached on a case-by-case basis. The game may also only have very outdated options, such as only a few resolutions. It's best to check [https://pcgamingwiki.com PCGamingWiki] for any potential issues you might have.
Classic games may only be available for the Windows 9x family as 16-bit software, which does not run on x86_64 without some form of emulation (x86 is a different story), so getting them to work could be stressful. However, [[Wine]] can play a majority of classic titles very well. Some ports may be for [[Intel CPUsPOS_(Pong_Consoles)_CPUs_and_Other_Chips#Intel_CPU.27s|DOS]] and are supported by [[DOSBox]].
There are also community patches which can fix some of these issues and depend on the complexity of the game, it may have a cross-platform [[Game engine recreations|game engine recreation]]. Depending on a game's popularity, it may even have a full remake. Obscure titles may have no fixes at all.
While we live in a time where the PC versions are automatically regarded as the "definitive" ones because of the benefits the platform has over consoles, it was not always the case. This section covering games that either received poor ports where emulation is preferable, or were ported with annoying flaws that prevent the PC version to be the ultimate one, or got completely different versions compared to console titles of the same name.

|Rayman 2
|PlayStation 2<br>3DS<br>Dreamcast|{{✓}}||||||||||{{✓}}|{{✓}}style="text-align: left;"|The Windows version is a port of the N64 version, and is known to have issues running on modern Windows. The Dreamcast version has various changes from the Nintendo 64 and Microsoft Windows versions, including several 2D sprites being replaced by 3D models, improved texture quality and minor level design changes. The Dreamcast version also has exclusive mini-games, six hidden Glob Crystal collectables and replaces The Hall of Doors with The Isle of Doors for the world map. Michel Ancel (the director) himself has previously stated that he believes that this version is the best version of the game.Rayman Revolution (the PS2 version) features many enhancements including new minigames and bonus challenges, upgrades to Rayman's abilities, level revisions, new music tracks, the option to switch between the gibberish from other versions and newly recorded real language voices, three new bosses, and Yellow Lum redistribution. The Hall of Doors was replaced with three central hubs, called The Minisaurus Plain, Globox's House and The Rainbow Creek, in which to walk to each level freely, play Ly's bonus challenges unlocked by freeing Revolution-exclusive prisoners called Familiar Spirits, and purchase ability upgrades or the new minigames from the Teensies with the Yellow Lums the player has collected. To date, Revolution is the only edition of Rayman 2 that lets players save when a level has been only partially completed, but like all versions of the game, it still uses manual saves. This is also the only version in which the 1,000th Yellow Lum can be obtained normally. However, despite the numerous improvements and enhancements to the gameplay, the frame rate is not as smooth as the near-constant 60fps of the Sega Dreamcast version, and certain graphical effects from that version, such as the blue ring trails that accompany a fully charged gold fist orb, are also gone. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFNxZEPuF4g But it can reach 60fps through a hack on PCSX2]. Rayman 3D (the 3DS version) has some further additions compared to the Dreamcast version which it was based on, but it has unstable performance and additional issues. Homebrewed New 3DS models can achieve much better performance by enabling New 3DS clock speeds and L2 cache in custom firmware menu.

|Prince } ===Console ports of Persia (2008)PC games===|Since game consoles are much less powerful than PCs, it is recommended to avoid PC games ported to consoles. Typically the games have to be altered to fit the constraints of the console and may be forced to use a radically different control scheme. An exception to this rule would be Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine's N64 port, and the console versions of certain Disney games like ''Cars 2'Epilogue'and '' Toy Story 3''. In the latter case, the PC versions suffer from downgraded graphics as a consequence of having to account for lower- continues gameend systems used by most families. Certain console ports of the PC games, however, may feature exclusive content like completely different soundtracks or extra missions. A notable example is the [https://nolf.fandom.com/wiki/The_Operative:_No_One_Lives_Forever#PlayStation_2_Edition flashback mission] in ''No One Lives Forever''s plot and opens , which is only available for the PS2 version of the true endinggame.|{==Arcade=={✓}}|class="wikitable" style="backgroundtext-align: #A2A9B1center;"! scope="col"|Name! scope="col"|{{✓}}Platforms|style! scope="background: #A2A9B1;col"|Notes

Typically the games have to be altered Updated graphics in order to fit match the constraints of the console and may be forced to use a radically different control scheme. An exception to this rule would be Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine's N64 portarcade, fixes bugs, and the console versions of certain Disney games like ''Cars 2'' adds online features and ''Toy Story 3''. In the latter case, the PC versions suffer modes from downgraded graphics as a consequence of having to account for lower-end systems used by most families. Certain console ports of the PC games, however, may feature exclusive content like completely different soundtracks or extra missionsCoast 2 Coast. A notable example is the [https://nolf.fandom.com/wiki/The_Operative:_No_One_Lives_Forever#PlayStation_2_Edition flashback mission] in Clarissa''No One Lives Forever'', which s design is only available for the PS2 version of the gamecensored.|} ==NES==NES games sometimes suffered from slowdown, and sprite flickering.

The Baroque Report, screen resolution is significantly lower at 240 x 160 as opposed to the usual 256 x 224 of SNES games. This leads to a smaller visible playing areaoptions, which can be devastating in some cases. The audio is much lower quality than the SNES and almost always uses inferior instrument samples for whatever reason (designated as "worse audio"). Also, most GBA games use much brighter colors to compensate for the lack of contrast in the original GBA display. To have these games display as intended, a shader or a palette patch is needed. Additionally, the GBA has two fewer buttons, leading to compromised control layouts. Several SNES games were ported to added openings from the PlayStation. More often than not the PS1 ports offer more features. However, the CD format creates loading times. Contrary to popular belief, most of these ports are not emulated. They simply take the text port and graphical assets from the SNES game ROM image on the disc, with the rest of the programming being original workremake.  {| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"! scope="col"|Name! scope="col"|PS1! scope="col"|GC! scope="col"|PS2! scope="col"|GBA! scope="col"|NDS! scope="col"|PSP! scope="col"|Notes

||✓|* Updated with "new" features and content which were previously missing from the original release due to developers missing on deadlines and inability to fit everything planned into the game in time (though some of this initially-missing content could be later added to the game via free DLC option done via now-defunct official website connection performed from game's main menu). Sound samples (music for the entire game and all other sounds alike) has been heavily compressed to fit on one mini-DVD disc, drastically diminishing the game's overall experience as Dreamcast's original release used uncompressed Redbook/CD-DA tier quality sound samples (actually one of the main reasons why Dreamcast'PSPs version had to be cut into two separate GD-ROM discs:the size of sound files in the original is truly huge due to it being absolutely raw samples for each and every sound in the game). Due to lack of VMU functionality an entire separate mini-game ("Pinta's Quest") was completely removed, which, considering that Pinta was a fully developed separate 3D character model in the original game, essentially means Gamecube's port completely lacks the said character (however, to somewhat balance this out Gamecube's port added several completely new characters that were never in the Dreamcast' Titled "MediEvil: Resurrection" has extra s release or planned to be in it even DLC content not avilable in any other version* -wise, such as Piastol and fake pirate trio for example). Gamecube's port also improves quite a bit on most characters', vehicles, ships', and locations'models sheer polygon count-wise, adding more details and rounding up previously clearly rough edges on world's 3D models, but these improvements are hardly noticeable by the untrained eye so you have to know exactly where to look to spot a significant difference from the original Dreamcast release. Gamecube'PS4:s port also fixed previously bugged "Zivilyn Bane's quest" line and this can be done fully from start to finish now (Dreamcast's original Japanese release' Titled s "MediEvil RemakeZivilyn Bane" quest can be fully completed too, but US' and has EU's later localization broke some flags during development which produces bug that renders the said quest completely uncompletable, pun not intended, in any versions of this game other than the said very first original Japanese release on the best graphicsDreamcast and later Gamecube ports of it).

The 3DS version features enhancements similar to those in Ocarina of Time 3D, as well as manual camera control when played on a New Nintendo 3DS, missing some rumble features. However, it changes some key gameplay mechanics in ways that fans of the original might not prefer. A mod to restore those changes exists: https://restoration.zora.re/

|The Windows version is a port of the N64 version and is known to have issues running on modern Windows and it's capped at 30fps.
The Dreamcast version has various changes from the Nintendo 64 and Microsoft Windows versions, including several 2D sprites being replaced by 3D models, improved texture quality, 60fps, and minor level design changes. The Dreamcast version also has exclusive mini-games, six hidden Glob Crystal collectibles, and replaces The Hall of Doors with The Isle of Doors for the world map. Michel Ancel (the Director) himself has previously stated that he believes that this version is the best version of the game.
 
Rayman Revolution (the PS2 version) is a remake that completely changes the game for better and for worse. This version includes new minigames and bonus challenges, upgrades to Rayman's abilities, level revisions, new music tracks, the option to switch between the gibberish from other versions, newly recorded real language voices, and three new bosses, and Yellow Lum redistribution. The Hall of Doors was replaced with three central hubs, called The Minisaurus Plain, Globox's House, and The Rainbow Creek, in which to walk to each level freely, play Ly's bonus challenges unlocked by freeing Revolution-exclusive prisoners called Familiar Spirits, and purchase ability upgrades or the new minigames from the Teensies with the Yellow Lums the player has collected. To date, Revolution is the only edition of Rayman 2 that lets players save when a level has been only partially completed, but like all versions of the game, it still uses manual saves. This is also the only version in which the 1,000th Yellow Lum can be obtained normally. However, despite the numerous improvements and enhancements to the gameplay, the frame rate is not as smooth as the near-constant 60fps of the Sega Dreamcast version, and certain graphical effects from that version, such as the blue ring trails that accompany a fully charged gold fist orb, are also gone. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFNxZEPuF4g But it can reach 60fps through a hack on PCSX2].

|Updated with "new" features and content which were previously missing from the original release due to developers missing on deadlines and inability to fit everything planned into the game in time (though some of this initially-missing content could be later added to the game via free DLC option done via now-defunct official website connection performed from game's main menu). Sound samples (music for the entire game and all other sounds alike) has been heavily compressed to fit on one mini-DVD disc, drastically diminishing the game's overall experience as Dreamcast's original release used uncompressed Redbook/CD-DA tier quality sound samples (actually one of the main reasons why Dreamcast's version had to be cut into two separate GD-ROM discs: the size of sound files in the original is truly huge due to it being absolutely raw samples for each and every sound in the game). Due to lack of VMU functionality an entire separate mini-game ("Pinta's Quest") was completely removed, which, considering that Pinta was a fully developed separate 3D character model in the original game, essentially means Gamecube's port completely lacks the said character (however, to somewhat balance this out Gamecube's port added several completely new characters that were never in the Dreamcast's release or planned to be in it even DLC content-wise, such as Piastol and fake pirate trio for example). Gamecube's port also improves quite a bit on most characters', vehicles, ships', and locations' models sheer polygon count-wise, adding more details and rounding up previously clearly rough edges on world's 3D models, but these improvements are hardly noticeable by the untrained eye so you have to know exactly where to look to spot a significant difference from the original Dreamcast release. Gamecube's port also fixed previously bugged "Zivilyn Bane's quest" line and this can be done fully from start to finish now (Dreamcast's original Japanese release's "Zivilyn Bane" quest can be fully completed too, but US' and EU's later localization broke some flags during development which produces bug that renders the said quest completely uncompletable, pun not intended, in any versions of this game other than the said very first original Japanese release on the Dreamcast and later Gamecube ports of it).

|PS3/Vita: cropped widescreen, In-level movies and infobot cutscenes can be skipped. Some weapon and Gadgetron vendor graphics are vertically compressed. Big Al's character model has numerous visible holes, most notably in his tongue and shirt. The memory card that was used to save and load icons in the menu was replaced by a brain with eyes in a container. The Shady Salesman's character model is missing its eyes. The exploit to explore the Blackwater City hoverboard tracks on foot for the infinite bolt glitch by entering the race under the Hologuise no longer works, per the Platinum re-release of Ratchet & Clank. However, it is still possible to access them by using a Decoy Glove to force yourself of bounds. Most sound-emitting gadgets (such as the Metal Detector) have a different sound when used compared to the original PS2 release. In the bargain snagglebeast fight on Umbris, when the beast triggers its shield, it will be green. On Quartu, after Ratchet finds out Drek is going to destroy his home, the lighting in the cutscene is darker than usual. The music that plays while fighting Chairman Drek on Veldin (which was left out of the North American PlayStation 2 release due to a bug, but restored in the PAL release) is normally missing. After beating the game, when the HelpDesk Girl appears at the end, no dialogue from her plays.

|PS3/Vita: cropped widescreen, In the options menu (either main menu or in-game) a new option called subtitles appears, but can never be toggled in the PlayStation 3 version. Subtitles can still be activated from the settings on the main menu screen in the PS Vita version. In the initial screen, Ratchet only plays one demo instead of multiple ones; at the end of any demo, the game goes to the main menu. When arriving at any destination, the cutscene where Ratchet & Clank exit the ship is sometimes missing. In cutscenes, the camera is more zoomed out compared to the original PS2 release. This is notable on Tabora, where after Ratchet throws his OmniWrench off-frame in the original, it is still visible in the remaster. Abercrombie Fizzwidget's glasses are now dark instead of clear, much like Tuxedo Ratchet's glasses which changed in the same way between Going Commando and Up Your Arsenal. The Maktar Resort's central structure no longer rotates. The slot machines on Maktar Resort have a missing texture bug where the entire piece surrounding the slot display is pure white instead of metallic.
Water graphics that consist of two 2D films with the one used as light reflection effect (on Tabora lakes, Dobbo acid, and Grelbin water in the factory) in the original version now consist of only the one film used as the reflection effect. The Abercrombie Fizzwidget robot on Todano no longer speaks while giving the tour. This greatly increases the ease at earning the "You're My Hero" skill point.

Wii: Titled "Project Zero 2: Wii Edition" Based on Xbox Version. The game no longer uses fixed camera angles present in the first three games, instead of using the over-the-shoulder angle. The player is provided with a map on the screen to compensate for this change. A minor two-player mode is also supported in the main story. Many new cutscenes have been added to the game, expanding on the story, and several of the cutscenes from the original have been extended as well. The game is no longer determined by what difficulty has been selected. Instead, endings are now determined by how the player plays the game.
The game has a new theme song, not in the original. A new mode, Haunted House, has been added, replacing Mission Mode.

Any of the skins above cannot be obtained in the PS Vita version, and in addition, the Constructobot skin won't unlock after collecting all the trophies.
The Holoshield Glove's V1 version (and not the others) shoots out rotating rectangles, rather than the expected oval with the proper textures. Some of the display elements in Up Your Arsenal are a slightly different hue from the orange-brown color in the PlayStation 2 version. With the exception of the Miniturret Glove, the reticle for certain launcher/glove weapons is different. The Nitro Launcher and Bouncer, for example, used a reticle with a series of segmented, spinning rings, but now have the cog-like reticle from the Glove of Doom. Some particle effects are missing, such as some bloom particles and loading screen effects on Aquatos.
The sound effects for when the ship is flying from planet to planet plays in a different order.
Exiting the Quick Select option in the Pause menu will exit the whole pause menu.
When using the Tyhrra-Guise to interact with tyhrranoids, there is no variation in the key tone regardless of which button is pressed during the rhythm game.

In offline or online multiplayer matches, there is no longer music while waiting before the start. In addition, multiplayer was taken out altogether in the PS Vita version

They were added back in for the white screen digital release. There is a drastic increase in the distance between Sly and an enemy required to trigger the sneaking sound of Sly's feet and the sneaky music. It has been increased to the point where Sly will make the sneaking sound almost all the time unless all nearby enemies are defeated. This effect is amplified vertically. Almost all background music has been remixed. Some background music is impacted by de-synchronizations, most notably during "A Deadly Dance." The original background music for a prolonged amount "Treasure in the Depths" was replaced by the music from "Burning Rubber," and the music from "A Ghastly Voyage" was put into "A Grave Undertaking." Some of timethe sneaky music was replaced by its non-sneaky counterpart. "Back Alley Heist" is one example.Metal heads have a shinySome voice acting is also impacted by de-synchronizations, silver armor texture as opposed to especially Carmelita in both "Police Headquarters" and "Duel by the original muddy brown textureDragon.

At the end of Protection"Duel by the Dragon," if the player hits the fireworks clockwise, a glitch occurs where Carmelita does not speak, but the dragon head still falls, followed by the player not being able to move. The player must hit the fireworks counter-clockwise to avoid this. For the PlayStation Vita release, Matt Olsen had to re-voice the camera control tutorial that plays when Jak receives his Light Shield powerthe player approaches the entrance to "A Cunning Disguise" inside "Prowling the Grounds."

Only the bonus videos for "The Black Chateau" (Sly Cooper:9 aspect ratio supportThe Second Season) and "Anatomy for Disaster" (the credits) are available to watch from the level select screen. The cutscene that plays after defeating Dimitri doesn't show the team playing cards in Monaco. Instead, the Cooper Van drives in place while Sly's audio continues, though he doesn't mention Monaco anymore. Altered character modelsThis was probably changed, musicbecause the games had to be ESRB rated again and it was most likely requested to remove this scene to lower the rating. Based on A different sound is heard when selecting the second through eighth episodes and the movie option from the updated Final Mix versionsEpisode Select Screen. This doesn't apply to Episode 1 for some reason. PS3 Suffers The level reset glitch in "Menace from increased load the North, eh!" was fixed. The first few seconds of each level's soundtracks are cut off each timethey are played the first go-around. This includes all soundtracks except the intro level, as well as alternative soundtracks for boss battles or other missions. The player can no longer use the USB Headset feature to distract the guards. 60fps support in PS4/XBOX ONE For the PS Vita version, Kevin Miller and Matt Olsen had to re-voice the waypoint & binocucom controls to "tap the rear touch pad to bring up the waypoint" and PC"tap the touch screen to bring up the binocucom. Kingdom hearts 2 " This is also the reason the amount of buttons used for the power-ups has some minor audio issueslowered for the PS Vita version, so the player can use only the L button for one power-up at a time. In the digital version of the game, at the start of the dialogue, it is quiet, gets louder, and then the volume decreases again at the end of a line. Sly's portrait in the Gadget Grid is different. It uses the same portrait as the one in Sly 3. When recon photos are taken, they take up the entire screen instead of zooming out. The Sly logo that appears while the game is loading is missing. The Sony Computer Entertainment presents screen uses a different font. The in-game dialogue is slightly delayed on the physical PS3 version of the game. This problem does not occur in the digital or PS Vita versions. The background music will also occasionally loop when the character dialogue delay occurs. Some of the menus and screen effects do not fill up the entire screen.ReThis doesn't happen when playing the game in the original 4: Chain 3 display mode (such as with an older TV). Most of Memories the UI is fixed in the physical northern European version. Some menu sound effects are quite different, mainly the ones which play when, for example, manually saving the game. The "transition" sound effect that plays when entering or exiting a remake level is also slightly different. During "Operation: Thunder Beak," when Bentley enters the water tower in the original PS2 version of the GBA game, there is a transition where the image smoothly flips upside down before Bentley appears in the tower.However, in this remaster, the transition doesn't work as intended, flipping the entire image in a single frame before cutting to the interior of the water tower. The Japanese version has every dialogue re-recorded from the ground up, which the voice actors for Sly, Bentley, Murray, Carmelita and the Panda King are taking over. However, some Japanese voice actors were changed for others.

|PC|| PS3/PS4/XBOX One/SwitchVita: a remake The few missions that supported 3-D no longer ask the player if they want to enable 3-D because the entire collection on PS3 is 3-D compatible (but despite this, the cutscenes that play before that menu popped up are still there). The Vita does not support either version of 3-D. The music glitch in unity engine the "Hungry Croc" mission was fixed. In the original, the music never played. Though some of the PS2 versions (most likely the PAL versions) had the music played correctly. In the multiplayer game "Biplane Duel," the green-orange targeting beacon doesn't appear to be locked on to the person when using special items. However, it is only a visual glitch.When starting the game, there is a chance a random bug will happen where the music will begin looping five seconds of the audio, and the cutscene dialogue will take several minutes to load the same engine dialogue, with better characters freezing mid-speech and looping until the game catches up. A way to fix this is simply powering the system off and restarting the system, but there have been reports of people being unable to fix the problem without deleting their data, and some who have been unable to fix it at all, indicating that it is potentially an error on the disk itself. During the "Beauty and the Beast" mission, the music for the fight between Carmelita and Mugshot doesn't play. Additionally, after the mission is over, the rest of the game won't play any music unless the player restarts the game, dies, or use Bentley's Grapple-Cam. European Sly fans can finally watch The Evolution of Sly video without having to look it up on the internet, as every bonus video is now accessible. When Sly first meets Dimitri in "Police HQ," players can clearly see him even when his back is turned. This is because the HD port has a different rendering, which causes the lightningto be much more clear. Characters count much faster when opening a double button security door. For the PS Vita version, Kevin Miller and Matt Olsen had to re-voice the waypoint & binocucom controls, as you have to tap the rear touch pad to bring up the waypoint and tap the touch screen to bring up the binocucom. This is also the reason the number of buttons used for the power-ups has lowered for the PS Vita version, so the player can only the L button for one power-up at a time. In the PS Vita version, you can use the motion sensors of the PS Vita system to steer the galleon in "Dead Men Tell No Tales," though it is never mentioned in-game. As in Sly 2: recon photos now take up the entire screen. the Sly logo that appears while the game is loading is missing.the Sony Computer Entertainment presents screen uses a different font. the in-game dialogue is slightly delayed on the physical PS3 version of the game.This problem does not occur in the digital or PS Vita versions. The background music will also occasionally loop when the character dialogue delay occurs. As in Sly 2, some of the menus and screen effects (particularly The Guru's hypnosis) don't fill up the entire screen. Also, it is mostly fixed in the physical northern European version. Murray's bounce height was drastically decreased. This is only seen in the PSVita release, but In the "Dark Caves" mission, when exploring the second cave, the lighting is different. The Vita version does not support any of the two-player minigames. The entire game is not available on the physical release of the PS Vita version and is instead only available via digital download

|Sly CooperFinal Fantasy VI|PlayStation<br>GameBoy Advance<br>Andoid<br>iOS<br>Windows|style="text-align:left;"||||✓||✓|||||||||| PS3/ Vita'''GBA: The player can now invert the game's camera controls.Developer commentaries in the physical version of the game have been removed. They were added back in for the digital release. There is a drastic increase in the distance between Sly and an enemy required to trigger the sneaking sound of Sly's feet and the sneaky music. It has been increased to the point where Sly will make the sneaking sound almost all the time unless all nearby enemies are defeated. This effect is amplified vertically. Almost all background music has been remixed. Some background music is impacted by de-synchronizations, most notably during "A Deadly Dance." The original background music for "Treasure in the Depths" was replaced by the music from "Burning Rubber," and the music from "A Ghastly Voyage" was put into "A Grave Undertaking." Some of the sneaky music was replaced by its non-sneaky counterpart. "Back Alley Heist" is one example. Some voice acting is also impacted by de-synchronizations, especially Carmelita in both "Police Headquarters" and "Duel by the Dragon." In main hub of "Vicious Voodoo," a small trail of coins were added to the path that leads to the "Piranha Lake" mission. At the end of "Duel by the Dragon," if the player hits the fireworks clockwise, a glitch occurs where Carmelita does not speak, but the dragon head still falls, followed by the player not being able to move. The player must hit the fireworks counter-clockwise to avoid this. For the PlayStation Vita release, Matt Olsen had to re-voice the camera control tutorial that plays when the player approaches the entrance to "A Cunning Disguise" inside "Prowling the Grounds." Since the right analog stick cannot be clicked on the Vita, Bentley instead says, "to bring the camera behind you, tap the rear touch pad." The l1 prompt that is in front of the Bentley icon that allows the player to revisit any binocucom conversations, tips from Bentley, or PA messages from the Fiendish Five members is removed in the PS Vita version, as that function has now been assigned to the touch screen. Some of the glitches (mostly speed-running ones) were fixed.The music for "Muggshot's Turf" has been sped up. When entering the Titled "At the Dog TrackFinal Fantasy VI Advance" mission, it first plays the same music that is heard when Sly confronts Muggshot in the boss mission. It then plays the original music once the race beginsNew translation. In the PS3 version of the gameExtra content, the music that plays during the prologue has been changed. The alternate music that plays once Sly sneaks past the water tower is no longer triggered; the original starting music is heard throughout the entire jobworse audio.
The Japanese version has every dialogue re-recorded from the ground up, which the voice actors for Sly, Bentley, Murray, Carmelita and the Panda King are taking over. However, some Japanese voice actors were changed for others.|-|Sly 2||||||✓||✓|||||||||| PS3/ Vita: The player can now invert the game's camera controls. Only the bonus videos for "The Black Chateau" (Sly Cooper: The Second Season) and "Anatomy for Disaster" (the credits) are available to watch from the level select screen. The cutscene that plays after defeating Dimitri doesn't show the team playing cards in Monaco. Instead, the Cooper Van drives in place while Sly's audio continues, though he doesniOS/Android't mention Monaco anymore. This was probably changed, because the games had to be ESRB rated again and it was most likely requested to remove this scene to lower the rating. A different sound is heard when selecting the second through eighth episodes and the movie option from the Episode Select Screen. This doesn't apply to Episode 1 for some reason. The level reset glitch in "Menace from the North, eh!" was fixed. The first few seconds of each level's soundtracks are cut off each time they are played the first go-around. This includes all soundtracks except the intro level, as well as alternative soundtracks for boss battles or other missions. The player can no longer use the USB Headset feature to distract the guards. For the PS Vita version, Kevin Miller and Matt Olsen had to re-voice the waypoint & binocucom controls to "tap the rear touch pad to bring up the waypoint" and "tap the touch screen to bring up the binocucom." This is also the reason the amount of buttons used for the power-ups has lowered for the PS Vita Translation based on GBA version, so the player can use only the L button for one power-up at a time. In the digital version of the game, at the start of the dialogue, it is quiet, gets louder, redone sprites and then the volume decreases again at the end of a line. Sly's portrait in the Gadget Grid is different. It uses the same portrait as the one in Sly 3. When recon photos are taken, they take up the entire screen instead of zooming out. The Sly logo that appears while the game is loading is missing. The Sony Computer Entertainment presents screen uses a different font. The inMode-game dialogue is slightly delayed on the physical PS3 version of the game. This problem does not occur in the digital or PS Vita versions. The background music will also occasionally loop when the character dialogue delay occurs. Some of the menus and screen effects do not fill up the entire screen. This doesn't happen when playing the game in the original 4:3 display mode 7 sections (such as with an older TVRPG Maker art style). Most of the UI is fixed in the physical northern European version. Some menu sound effects are quite different, mainly the ones which play whenreworked Cyan Bushido, for example, manually saving the game. The "transition" sound effect that plays when entering or exiting a level is also slightly different. During "Operation: Thunder Beak," when Bentley enters the water tower in the original PS2 version of the game, there is a transition where the image smoothly flips upside down before Bentley appears in the tower. However, in this remaster, the transition doesn't work as intended, flipping the entire image in a single frame before cutting to the interior of the water tower. The Japanese version has every dialogue re-recorded from the ground up, which the voice actors for Sly, Bentley, Murray, Carmelita and the Panda King are taking over. However, some Japanese voice actors were changed for otherstouch controls.

This version includes new minigames and bonus challenges, upgrades to Rayman's abilities, level revisions, new music tracks, the option to switch between the gibberish from other versions, newly recorded real language voices, and three new bosses, and Yellow Lum redistribution. The Hall of Doors was replaced with three central hubs, called The Minisaurus Plain, Globox's House, and The Rainbow Creek, in which to walk to each level freely, play Ly's bonus challenges unlocked by freeing Revolution-exclusive prisoners called Familiar Spirits, and purchase ability upgrades or the new minigames from the Teensies with the Yellow Lums the player has collected.

'''PS3/360:''' HD Remaster. The Hoodlum Havoc subtitle has been removed, and the font of the logo has been changed to match that of Rayman Origins.
The original version opened with a gameplay trailer cut to Groove Armada'sMadder'. This has been removed and replaced with a new trailer featuring new music.
The intro sequence originally began with the classic Ubi Soft logo, used for the first three Rayman games, overlaid against a night sky. This has been cut.
Rayman 3 HD features audio problems. Many music tracks start later than they should, and often contain glitches. In the Fairy Council, a Ludiv originally spoke the line 'Oh my God, what is going on here?' In Rayman 3 HD, this line is censored to 'What is going on here?'. Parts of the sky above the Clearleaf Forest have become black, and the color of the water has undergone strange changes.
The bonus section of the game contains an "extra" which is a gallery of the artworks seen in the Rayman Origins art booklet which came with the collector's edition.
The shadows of objects and characters have been known to glitch up, often passing directly through surfaces and appearing/disappearing at random. The shadows also sometimes are not cast according to the location of the light source, and instead, appear directly beneath the caster. The jewels and Red Lums now cast light onto the geometry around them, as opposed to the original version, where only a glowing texture was placed around them. The Grand Minimus's crown is now transparent. Level scores are now shown at the end of the boss battle sections. The game now features subtitles for the cutscenes and some other in-game dialogue.

|style="text-align:left;"|The exclusive enhanced port of a popular PS2 game, which many considered to be the reason to own a Vita, is now available on PC. It may be worth getting if you're computer can't handle running a PS2 emulator (if you wanted to play the original instead) and especially considering the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28rb1omrJ-s current state of Vita emulation]. The official Steam version comes with the controversial Denuvo Anti-tamper, but there is a cracked version that doesn't use Denuvo floating around. One problem some users have been noticing is the cutscenes are laggy even on higher-end machines (this is apparently due to the way the video files were encoded).

|Used to feel like an emulated version put on PC as it sometimes plays using a dual screen setup. Some keys cannot be remapped at all for keyboard, and certain modes do not retain controller remapping changes. Has new modes the 3DS version lacks. This used to be only way to enjoy the full story cut from the overseas release up until the 3DS version received a patch in some territories and the Striker Pack compilation rectified this. A new port of the Striker Pack for the Switch and PS4 which runs at 60 FPS, features HD event graphics and portraits, balance tweaks, and incorporates its sequel's difficulty system. A patch was released for the PC version on May 2018 that removed dual screen setup and added 60 FPS support, but a recent patch broke the game's Speedrun and Other Modes on PC.
