List of notable ports

Most indie games likely have cross-platform support as a way to maximize sales, as opposed to major publishers that see cross-platform support as a hindrance to their sales.
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'' to name a few). Every port has its own issues 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 The game may also only have very outdated options, such as only a few resolutions.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 CPUs|DOS]] and are supported by [[DOSBox]].

|Toy Story 3
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].

|The PC version of the game is notorious for having missing music. Patches exist that add it from the PSX version. Note that the proper music is not a continuous soundtrack and only plays when certain events happen; to test if your version has been patched, see if the demo in Lara's Home asks you to use the joystick.

===Multi-platform games with DLCs exclusive for consoles===
Happens that the game or comes out simultaneously on PC and consoles, or first on consoles and later on the PC. And this port is really good: version of game has been transferred from the most powerful console of its generation, the control is correctly adapted to the keyboard and mouse, there are graphics' settings, resolution changer and 60 FPS. But exist one extremely mean moment: the game lost part of its contents, since some expansions were not included in PC version.
 
It is usually "small" DLCs which add more: game modes, playable characters (or cars in the case of racing games), skins, weapons etc. That does not have a large negative effect on the game - since its gameplay and graphics were ported perfectly - but nevertheless annoying that the game does not receive definitive edition on the platform with: the most powerful hardware, the highest backward compatibility and capabilities of changing of graphics settings (including very important case with enhancing of render resolution) and installing of unofficial modifications. Because of all over above, the games on PC may live forever with permanent migration on new operating systems, processors and video cards, while games on consoles are becoming hard to accessible when their generation loses relevance.
 
And do not forget about a especially big catastrophe when the game got a terrible port with disappeared expansions.

'''PC:''' The 1997 PC port also comes standalone versions of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Sonic & Knuckles, and Blue Spheres, but replaces a number of music with different tracks. Music playback is replaced by synthesized MIDI, which is in poor quality thanks to the stock Windows wavetable synth. Can be fixed with a fan-made wrapper and mod loader. The 2011 Steam re-release is ran through an emulator, however, an unofficial port for the Steam version that's on par with the iOS/Android versions of Sonic 1/2/CD is available.

'''PC:''' The 1995 PC port features better FMVs than the Sega CD version, but runs at half the speed, loading times. A newer 1996 version runs better, but introduced some new bugs and only includes the US soundtrack for all regions. Can be fixed with a fan-made wrapper.
 
'''PS2:''' Based on the PC version with even better FMVs and the Special Stages run at 30 FPS instead of 20, but some effects are broken, and was only released in Japan and Europe on PlayStation 2. The GameCube version is available in North America, but is blurrier compared to the PS2 version.
 
'''PC/360/PS3:''' Remade on a new fan-made engine which would later be used in the iOS/Android versions of Sonic 1 and 2. Features widescreen support, 60 FPS presentation, new content, the ability to use the Sonic 2 Spin Dash, the best quality FMVs, and comes with the US and Japanese soundtracks, but the Japanese songs are replaced with instrumental versions due to licensing issues. There's an unofficial port that implements newer updates from iOS/Android versions that never made it onto PC, among other improvements.

==Sega Saturn==
Saturn emulation is poor, with only two emulators ([[SSF]] and [[Mednafen]]) worth using. Both have drawbacks, however; the former is closed-source and Windows only while the latter has more compatibility issues and is extremely demanding.

'''PSX:''' auto-aim doesn’t work as well, which makes hitting the smaller enemies more irritating. Moving around is less squirrely, so tight platforming is much easier to do. You even pick up ammo drops more frequently, ensuring you’re always stocked. Levels have been redesigned to various degrees to make for more enclosed areas. The frame rate was increased to 60fps, but it can also go down to 20fps, and usually wavers in between for the majority of the game.

|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].

|Skies of Arcadia
|
|
|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).

|Donkey Kong Jungle Beat
|
|
|
|
|
|
'''Wii:''' Titled "Donkey Kong Jungle Beat New Play Control!", controlled using the Wii Remote, using its Nunchuk accessory to control Donkey Kong's movement and its motion detection feature to clap. To accommodate the more traditional control scheme, the level designs were altered to include more obstacles, and players do not have to collect crests to progress. It also replaces the banana-based health meter with a more traditional life system and adds a boss rush mode and support for widescreen television displays.
|-
|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
|
|
|
|
|
|
'''Wii U:''' HD Remaster. Additional control methods have been added. The Inventory has been made accessible through the GamePad's touchscreen, with no need to pause the game. some items, such as the Wind Waker, are permanently mapped to certain buttons as opposed to being equipped to the three-item slots. First-person aiming of items is achieved through either the right analog stick or the GamePad's gyroscope, though there is an option to disable the gyroscope. Some cutscenes where Link makes a facial expression silently have voices added to match the expressions. The ending cutscene and staff credits, which were prerendered in the original game, are now fully real-time cutscenes in the remaster. However, the smooth transition effects from the original cutscenes have been replaced by fade-to-white effects, presumably due to the difficulty of implementing the original cutscenes' transitions in real-time rendering. The intro cutscene, which plays upon the start of a new file, is skippable, but no other cutscenes are.

'''GameCube:''' Original Version. Best Shadows and Water effects. Has an exclusive mini-game by connecting GBA to The Gamecube and another Minigame called "2D Nightmare" that can be accessed by using cheats. Has an HD Texture Pack.
 
'''PS2:''' Inferior looking
 
'''Xbox:''' Widescreen option is just 4:3 stretched.
 
'''PC:''' The ability to skip FMV cutscenes was Removed, Some textures are missing, Both issues can be fixed with a mod called "better Rayman 3" The PC version is also available in Czech, Hebrew, Polish, Russian, and Slovak languages
 
'''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.

|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.
