What remakes of games do you want to be made?

[New Frontiersman]

Hmmm... Definitely Tales of Symphonia. I loved that game, it's still one of my favorites. They already did Tales of the Abyss for the 3DS so doing Symphonia on there too would be pretty cool. Plus those shiny angel wings would look awesome in 3D.

If not that than a remake of Baten Kaitos: Origins. It was another really awesome GameCube RPG that deserves more recognition.

If, and only if it can be done right, Final Fantasy VI.

I've always wanted to see a remake of FFVI that makes a new World of Ruin. By that point in the game the story is stagnant, it's all about finding and re-uniting your allies in an open world and getting strong enough to challenge Kefka. The ending was also kind of lackluster, maybe they could do something there. Perhaps a 'new game+' that lets you play through up to a certain persons death, at which point you can change fate and beat Kefka before he blows up the world.

Normally you don't do this sort of thing when making a remake, but I think FFVI is one of the few games that it would work for. In particular the problem I have is I've played through it several times and no where everything and everyone is already, so if I play the game again I want to have a fresh experience for the second half.

Rise of Nations

Do you mean the old RTS game then FUCK YEAH I totally agree, I fucking loved that game, Rise of Legends was alright but I fucking loved Rise of Nations.

Also, KOTOR 2, an HD remake of KOTOR 2 with all the cut content added in would be so fucking awesome!!!!!

 

[TWEWYFan]

Dark Forces 1 and/or 2
Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald
Maybe Neverwinter Nights

 

[Innegativeion]

I've said it a thousand times, I'll say it a thousand more:

Bomberman 64 HD Collection. Bomberman 64, Bomberman Hero and Bomberman 64 The Second Attack (I'll settle for just the last one if need be.)

Unfortunately, Hudson has gone under, so this will likely never happen...

The lack of long term platforming franchise success with the bomberman series that Mario, Donkey Kong, Sonic, and Mega Man enjoyed baffles me to this day.

Bomberman Hero remains as one of my most nostalgic games.

 

[unstabLized]

As far as re-skins go, lots of retro games. Anything pre 2008 or so.

New games? Nothing. Maybe I'm just bitter from it, but I just played the new Need for Speed Most Wanted that was made by Criterion, and I am very pissed. That was the biggest pile of shit I've ever played with the Need for Speed title stamped on it. It was like The Sims with cars. Terrible game, my worst game of 2012, and VERY disappointed because I absolutely loved the original Most Wanted, one of my favourite games of all time.

Dungeon Keeper 2
Kalypso did try to bring something similar but failed too much to bring what people wanted.Apparently they made a sequel too.
Heres hopping that EA will get extremely money hungry and revive the franchise.And people said EA was a bad developer,if money-snatching EA bring me Dungeon keeper 3 i will apologize of the all bad things that i said about EA all these years

*The original Deus Ex could probably use one. I've always been able to bear the graphics, but if it could get more people willing to play a classic like Deus Ex, I'm all in.

*Clock Tower (the PSX one, not the SNES one) is the one game I could actually see translating really well onto the Wii. There are so many scenes in that that could be so much cooler with modern lighting and visuals (especially the scene in the computer lab where Scissorman starts walking and all of the computers turn on in conjunction with his movements)

*System Shock 1 really needs one. I've been able to get through both SS1 and SS2 without too many graphical complaints, but System Shock 1 would be really cool in HD. So would SS2, but all I want is for them to officially re-release it...

 

[Zanderinfal]

Soul Reaver 1 to be compatible with the analog sticks. Also, Spyro 1. That is all.

 

[Reaper195]

Final Fantasy 7/8 in 13 graphics but everything else is same (Even text speech, because fuck FF voice acting so far), Metal Gear Solid 1 in MGS4 graphics. Deus Ex. Silent Hill 1/2 in Downpour graphics. That is all.

 

[Kekkonen1]

ok I'll probably get some stick for this, but I would pay 200USD hands down for a well-made true remake of Final Fantasy 8 (no I didn't accidently type 8 instead of 7).

 

[SmegInThePants]

remake the games that were *awful*, there's no where to go but up. Its almost guaranteed to be better. Remaking a good game usually (not always) leads to disappointment, overhype, failure.

 

[The Hero Killer]

Resident Evil 2 & 3, Final Fantasy's I-VIII, Soul Reaver, Tales of Symphonia & Abyss, Persona 1 & 2, Vampire: The Masquerade, hell I could go on and on I'd love for all my favorite games to get makeovers with better graphics and voice acting.

Too bad Resident Evil and MGS: The Twin Snakes for the Gamecube are the only 2 that I can think of that were successful.

 

[Nexxis]

Jade Cocoon
Dragon Seeds
Ty the Tasmanian Tiger

Did you know about this ? (Was just recently released)

http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.389431-System-Shock-2-Thief-2-Get-Surprise-Patches

Yes I know about that, but I was thinking about something more extensive than just a patch, even if it is a big one. I'm talking genuine remakes.

 

[Tycon]

Games that need a remake
1.) The Legend of Dragoon
2.) Heroes of Might and Magic 3
3.) Wing commander
4.) Hexen
5.) Rocket Knight Adventures (remake not reboot)
6.) Zombies ate my neighbors

Games with current remakes that sparked life into an old game (why its a good idea)
1.) Dota 2
2.) Sonic Adventure
3.) LoZ LTTP

A new megaman game or remake would be nice too but that one is just a dream, it will never come true =(.

A third Vectorman [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vectorman#Canceled_Third_Game] was planned, but got cancelled, possibly due to criticisms of it being turned into a bland 3rd person shooter.

Altered Beast [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altered_Beast_(2005_video_game)] had a remake for PS2 in 2005, but was only released in Japan and Europe. Never played it, but supposedly it is quite 'meh'. To be honest, the original game wasn't all that great either. It's popularity hinges a lot on nostalgia, due to it being the first (16-bit) game for many.

Golden Axe [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Axe:_Beast_Rider] also got a remake in 2008 and it is decidedly terrible.

PS: sorry for double post.
