I personally think that a Mario reboot would be interesting. Someone already did a video in GTA IV but I think the game could be something like this
In the comments section of Moviebob's review of Unstoppable there are posts joshingly referring to it as gritty Thomas the Tank Engine.
I'd never seriously endorse such a thing, but given how much I was into it as a kid it got me thinking about a live-action version where all the Isle Sodor's steam engines are secretly alive, and a big part of the plot is the human characters finding out why/how. Are they haunted? Are all train engines secretly alive and just pretend not to be?

Gritty reboot meaning...gray/brown coloring and dirt everywhere...hm. I would have to say Dragonquest. Those games go out of their way to remain colorful and lighthearted. Going into that realism territory would probably force the creators of the game to require therapy for the jarring experience it would be making that game.
Phineas and Ferb.
The titular characters would be mad inventors who constantly unleash reality-warping abominations upon the populace, all the while maintaining a carefully constructed false innocence. Candice is a completely ignored, constantly arrested protagonist slowly being driven insane by her futile efforts to convince the people that P&F are evil. Isabella and the Fireside girls would be P&F's logistics team (thieves essentially), Bufort would by the bodyguard and Baljeet would be the twisted messwork guy. Stacy would be a cop sympathetic to Candice's cause, even if she doesn't quite believe her, and is the one who is always bringing Candice in.

Hm, I guess it somehow transcended the limits of darkness and grittiness and reverted to being cute and colorful. I didn't know that was possible; we may have a very important discovery on our hands!Nouw said:
Want gritty Pokemon read the Manga.Mittens The Kitten said:
Blue is looking for her parents and is finally able to find them but at the end of the story arc a Team Rocket Soldier uses a weapon meant for deoxys on Red, Blue, Green, Yellow and Silver and turns them all into stone.
The last line of the arc was spoken by professor Oak. "Get Blue's parents out of here they can't see this."

Minecraft already has roving undead and horror stories. I don't think it's that absurd.subject_87 said:
On the other hand, Dog Sees God is an excellent reboot of the Peanuts comics in a dark, gritty world where most of the old gang are teenagers on drugs or have their lives spiraling into the ditch.

You know what?
Batman.
Yeah. The very idea of making a dark, edgy, gritty reboot of a franchise about a guy who fights crime with gadgets while dressed as a bat is fucking retarded. No, stop right there - I don't care how much you like it or how well you think it works. I don't care how popular it is and how wrong you think I am.
It is a fucking atrocious idea that should never have happened and its popularity only serves to prove the idiocy of the Western public. Take something we already know (so it's familiar!) and give it a lick of "gritty" paint (also familiar!) and our moronic minds will convince ourselves that it's a fresh new take on a beloved franchise, and we'll flock to see it in droves.
Fuck you, everyone who likes the edgy Batman. You're no better than the CoD/Halo fanboys you no doubt look down your nose at.
At least Batman was fucking original when it was about a camp guy in a skintight outfit fighting crime by dancing with an underage boy.
