Games

I'm here once again to humbly submit the suggestions of Dungeon Keeper and Black and White. That is all.

SSX Tricky brought up to PS5 graphics.

Obligatory Bloodborne mention.

Not sure if it's been done already, but Zelda LttP would be cool. I haven't played Echoes of Wisdom though I like the art style and could see it working well.

Goldeneye + Perfect Dark.

My wishlist is Final Fantasy Tactics, Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, and Xenogears. A Xenogears remake likely isn't ever happening so I'd be happy with a remaster, and it's practically an open secret at this point that an FFT project is in development. It getting the Tactics Ogre Reborn treatment would be lovely, but what I really want is an orchestrated soundtrack. Here's hoping it doesn't get cancelled. 🤞

As a genre, 4X is still kicking around, but I'm not even sure if SMAC is beloved enough to get the treatment. Good voice acting would be essential.

Sid Meier's Pirates! There are so few actually good pirate games.

Honestly, looking at how modern game development studios handle remakes, I wouldn't want them anywhere near any of my beloved games. I haven't played a single remake in the last 20 years where I felt like the studio that made it knocked it out of the park.

Also, I strongly believe good games should not be remade, and only remastered/ "deluxe remastered" (where even if the game is remade, its a 1:1 faithful recreation with additional features and gameplay mechanics being optional). Remake the games that weren't great, give them another chance at big success.

• Sonic 2006
• the XenoSaga games (don't @ me XS fans, you know the combat and boss design in those games were terrible, 1 had DOMO Carrier, Tiamat, and whatever was going on in Song of Nephilim)
• Most Konami games in the late 90s - mid 2010s
• LAPD Future Cop
• etc

Legend of dragoon and legend of dragoon but if I can't have those, legend of dragoon...

Mine is Gothic and Soul Reaver - getting both so I'm a happy camper

The old GameCube game, Eternal Darkness

Just give me a proper Xenogears remake with all the cut content from the second disc and I'll die happy.

Gauntlet: Dark Legacy

Deus Ex. When I first played it I was amazed by the graphics and I specifically remember being impressed that your character was reflected in mirrors. I've been replaying it recently and the graphics are obviously very dated, but it also doesn't run smoothly on modern hardware. My PC gets louder and louder as I play it and eventually the game starts to stutter and I have to restart it.

The rest of the Legacy of Kain games

Black and white as VR

I would love to see F.E.A.R. with updated graphics. Preferably just a remaster, but if it was remade in the same spirit as the Dead Space remake was, I'd be down for that too, especially if they brought back Fettel's voice actor.

Mercenaries 1 playground of destruction

Just cause graphics could be something nice

pretend whatever game in question you're thinking of is handled with the utmost care by your favourite devs and they absolutely nail it.

Crash Team Racing. :(

I really wouldn't mind a remake of Left 4 Dead 2 with better netcode and more official maps.

My old MUD

The entire Ultima series for sure. I think those were the first CRPGs I played. I loved Ultima: Underworld I & II, but I was never able to get Ultima VII: Pagan to run properly on my computer. (And, holy fuck, that was 30 years ago.)

But also The Elder Scrolls: Arena, TES: Daggerfall, TES: Battlespire, TES: Redguard, and TES: Morrowind. The first two TES games would be challenging to make, given that many of the areas were randomly generated, rather than being designed.

I'd love to see Chrono Trigger get the 2D-3D octopath-style remake that a few old SNES games have gotten.

Worms

But they'd fuck it up again

I’d love to see Ocarina of Time and Majoras Mask get a full remade release, bundled together into one game ideally. Sure we got the 3ds remakes but I wanna see it back on home consoles, like tp and ww HD.

I'm not particularly a fan of either re-makes or full remastered but I'm a big fan or, for example, when Xbox upgraded the resolution and FPS or backwards compatible games.

I would love to see Metal Gear Solid The Twin Snakes again and have a similar service on Switch for GameCube games.

Tribes

X3: Terran Conflict.

Yes, we got X3FL in 2021 AND X4, but X4 is a very different game and X3FL is just a heavily scripted X3AP (more or less).

It's a more-than-me years old game with a lot of mods that keep it enjoyable to day – as "enjoyable" as it can be, that janky piece o' junk – but I feel about it the same way I feel about Halo 2: imagine what it could have been, if the devs had the resources they could have today. ~~(if you say "X4" I'm going to fucking flip)~~

Right now, I'd really like the Gex games. Underrated 2D platformer, and a pair of goofy early 3D collectathons!

Hopefully the remake of the trilogy is still in production. I've got it on my wishlist from Limited Run Games, lol

Well, a few months ago I would have said Soul Reaver, but we're finally getting that!

So I guess I'll say Siphon Filter. I remember having a lot of fun with that back in the day.

The Sly Cooper Trilogy +/- Thieves in Time

None. After the vivisection that was the GTA remaster, stay the fuck away from older games. Please and thank you.

Shadow of memories sounds nice.

I can see a good remake of terranigma

C&C:Generals

OpenRA is nice though

I'd like to see a return of the old racing games with hundreds of cars and performance customization

I haven't seen a game like juiced in quite some time with money on the line for each race

I feel like I could have some fun with a remake of Descent 1 and 2.

Vib-Ribbon.

It's one of the coolest concepts I've seen for PSx. It's a rhythm game that loads into the console's ram, allowing you to swap the disc to one of your CDs and could generate unique levels for your songs.

While looking it up I did find there was a PS3 port, but I don't know how good that is or if it has the same custom level feature or not. I'd love a modern version that looks visually similar but allows you to either input a playlist from a service like yt or use your own local files to generate unique levels.

Shadow of Memories is such a good game. That's all I had to say.
