We all have them, our personal secret favourite game and/or series that we'd just love to see brought back to life, either as a re-make or for a new game in the series.
I'd love to hear all the games/series you guys would like to be brought back, along with the things you think could have been done better [if there is anything], and your opinion on why you think it died.
***My personal favourite series***
Carmageddon
Originally made for the PC and N64 [just to be clear, I am no fan on the N64 version], by SCi.
This game had basically no back story, but the gameplay it brought forth was relatively new, and most importantly it was fun.
Me and my friends played through the original in one huge marathon, and had great fun.
Then [quite] a few years later, I found the demo for Carmageddon 2, and I suddenly had a great huge urge to play the game. I rushed out, got the game, only to find huge problems when I tried to play it on my XP machine(it was barely viewable, and at times, not viewable at all]. I had always expected to see a relase, but I never ever saw advertising for it, for which I was dissapointed.
Then a while later, out came TDR:2000, I rushed out to get this, only to find that the developers had tried to stick too much story on it, and removed basically all the fun from the series.
So Carmageddon is one of the few series I'd like to see brought back, I'd like to See a re-make of Carmageddon 2, or a new game, which still has the fun aspects from C2.
Tribes 2
Developed for the PC by Dynamix[now a dead company].
Now I know that this is actually a series, but I never had a chance to play the originals(beyond the original Tribes, which I tried to play, but I just can't, I can't understand it), and the follow up made by.. I don't know who, and don't care really, because it was a steaming PoS.
I originally picked up T2, simply because it was free(as it still is), and had great fun playing against the bots. I never got a chance to play it online, which is a great shame, as that's what this game is all about.
I'm not going to be nice to the developers of T2 either, they did do a shoddy job, they rushed the game, it needed serious patches to make it playable when it was first released, and this was the reason behind their demise. However it doesn't stop me from wanting to see a proper re-make or sequel to Tribes 2 [Tribes: Vengance was shit].
Game's/Series I want to die.
The Sims
The Sims, or stop counting it in game sales, it is bloody annoying!
So yeah, that's about it, What about you guys, what Series and/or games do you want brought back, and what do you want to curl under a rock and die?
PS) Did I take too long in fixing up my previous Thread? Why was it locked? [I accidently launched it while I was doing the title, then when after I typed all this out, it was locked
]
