In this thread we post Games we want to be remade

[Eraser]

Played a horror adventure with Geiger artwork .. it was a creepy game.
it would be fun to play that one again with new Graphics.

Darkseed maybe? To be honest, the visual style was all that this game had going for it. Gameplay-wise, it was terrible.

[feedback]

Marathon would be good to see, hint hint

[o'dium]

System Shock needs a real sequel, and not a toned down one eithre *cough* Bioshock *cough* But failing that a remake wouldnt be bad...

[DRuM]

Flashback.

Another World

It was revamped 2 or 3 years ago, less pixelated. I replayed it, it's a fantastic game, and VERY difficult in places.
They don't make em like that anymore.

flashback was fucking awesome.

[DRuM]

It was. Flashback and Another World are the only games I think I ever replayed, they're that good.

[Pext]

Magic Carpet 2 - loved that game.

it was so cool to see your mana balls grow

wow... i just get some memories. this game was super awesome!

[Captain]

Hell yes, I loved MC2.

[DRuM]

I'd love to see 'Fade To Black' remade as well.

Do a remake of Blake Stone

[MKJ]

fade to black was pretty naff imo.
shame cos it had potential

[DRuM]

Ah but you see, the remake would fulfill that potential.
It certainly wasn't as successful as it's prequel flashback, but was still good fun to play.

[^misantropia^]

Some good suggestions there, Drum.

Fun fact: there actually is a sequel to Flashback/Fade To Black, called Flashback Legends. Delphine folded before it was released but there is a leaked GBA ROM available on the Interwebz. Caveat emptor though, it has some bugs and I think it's only available in French. =)

i thought donny's criterium was that only the engine would change, no gameplay :T

[MKJ]

they remade bubble bobble recently. with 4 player coop even
but what did these morons forget to add? online support

[Silicone_Milk]

Have Sin, Rise of the Triad, Heretic, and Hexen been mentioned yet?

[Don Carlos]

Sin was nice

[Underpants?]

are there no quake1 fans in this place anymore?

[Mat Linnett]

I love Quake just the way it is thank you Underpants?
I think you'll find it's that way with most legacy id games though. Generally, the engines are so scalable and modable, the community usually does a pretty good job of "re-making" them as time goes on.

[Don Carlos]

Quake 1 + 2 are still good, though saying that the gameplay of Quake 2 doesn't really hold up too much.

I would like a PS3 version of Shadow of the Colossus

[Mat Linnett]

That's apparently coming Donny, along with Ico.

[Don Carlos]

Indeed - HD versions of it but I doubt it will be using all of the PS3 power

[Mat Linnett]

Sure, but from what I hear, Shadow of the Colossus lagged somewhat on the PS2, struggling to maintain a solid framerate. I'm guessing that won't be an issue on the PS3.
That said, I'd imagine that if any of the original developers are involved with the port, they'd be tempted to add some graphical flair.
But a rock-solid 1080p60 would be enough for me

[U4EA]

Always kicked myself for not tracking down Shadow of the Colossus, so I'm really looking forward to its HD version. Ico was sublime, of course.
