If you could pick ONE game from your past to remake, what would you choose?

[MrDeano89]

Hey, Firstly I had a brief look via the search bar and didn't find a thread similar to this thread, at least not from the recent past anyway.

So If you had the choice of a game remade with today's polish and graphics but EXACTLY the same game play, what would you choose?

Personally I would choose GTA San Andreas as that game in my humble opinion had very very few flaws game play wise, if they remade that with today's graphics I'd pay full price for sure.

My choice is being remade: Shadow of the Colossus. I am a happy gamer

Oni.

Because it is in many ways a pretty crappy game, that still is considered one of my favorites by a number of reasons. Game play, story and setting...

Magic carpet 2. it was (and still is) a lot of fun.

Edit : Or Space Empire 5. A remake that balance it right, and remove the coding/lag problems would be awesome.

 

[Redingold]

Deus Ex. A truly fantastic experience that was only slightly marred by the terrible graphics and rather dull voice acting.

 

[Armored Prayer]

Battlefront 2.

With today's graphics the maps would look simply beautiful.

 

[blackwlf]

Azure Dreams, all the way.

A game from my past? *thinks of spyro, which had good, or at least perfectly acceptable, graphics for the time* *looks at Skylanders: Spyro's adventure* Can I instead ask for a game not to be remade?

I'd absolutely love for their to be a new battletoads.

Seen this thread a few times so far... And my pick is still Darkstalkers.

 

[Crazed_Puppeteer]

I was going to go with E.T., but since you said that this "remake" would only get polish and graphics, I'll go with the Advance Wars series for 3DS. If done right, it could be fantastic.

I'd definitely say System Shock 2. For me, its absolutely the best game I've ever played, being immersive, compelling and scary and despite looking a bit dated now, I continue to go back and re-play it from time to time and just feel it oozing all over me. Bring all the technical stuff up to today's standards, and for my money you have got the single best game ever. Particularly getting modern lighting and such like to add even more atmosphere and make the creepy half-zombie bad guys even more creepy... Yeah. That's what I'd go for.

Oh and I second Deus Ex as well. It's already a superb game, so if it got a graphical upgrade and yeah, better voice acting and such, it would be even more amazing.

That kinda misses the whole point of the thread. While it may turn out to be a good game (certianly looks good to me) it is NOT a remake of the original.

Black and white. Great game, great concept, shit sequel. make a new one, make it right, and ill be a happy man.


Also, SIMcopter. that game was awesome

 

[teqrevisited]

What I wouldn't give for Sega to pull their finger out and remake Streets of Rage officially. Or at least leave the guys who actually did bother to remake it alone.

 

[Vigormortis]

Easy choice. Homeworld.

I still view it to be one of the greatest RTS games every crafted. Not to mention having one of the best stories ever put to the digital format. Combine those with super tight gameplay, innovative ideas (some that have yet to be truly replicated), and a fantastic score and it's still phenomenal even by today's standards. If Relic were to do a modern-day remake, or for that matter, a decent sequel (making it a trilogy), I'd be one seriously happy camper.

When I saw this thread I immediately thought of the Spyro PS1 Trilogy but then again they're fine as they are. Better graphics and maybe a few new levels and I'd be ok with them being remade, the story and gameplay need not be touched.

Also I agree with San Andreas.
