What old games would you like to be redone.
« on: June 28, 2009, 06:28:16 AM »
As some of you may be aware the bestest game in the whole wide world was The Settlers II: Gold Edition, this was remade into The Settlers II: Tenth Anniversary Edition. All the new edition did was update the graphics and make a few minor gameplay tweaks. NOTHING ELSE. of course the one thing it did miss was the "Conquer the World" element from the original, which I would play endlessly, but C'est la vie.

What games would YOU like to see where the only changes where graphical updates (except for the odd, minor, gameplay fix)?

I'd like to see the original Close Combat updated as well as Transport Tycoon, I know the guys over at OpenTTD are doing a good job (and I do play it), but I would like to see genuine 3d graphics with undulating hills and mountains rather than simple 2d Isometrics

I'd say Total Annihilation, but since Supreme Commander is already kind of a remade version of it...

FF7, I'm sure a lot can agree on that one. C&C (and C&C:RA) would be interesting to see.

Half-Life is already being updated to the source engine, I can't wait for Black Mesa to finish.

Settlers 2 is quite an amazing game. I used to play this demo I had for hours. I'm sure there's a bunch more that I just can't think of at the moment.

Xenogears. If it was given graphics that were on par with metal gear solid 4 it would be too amazing. Then again same can be said about planescape torment.

Since they're doing a remake of Monkey Island and
Diablo 2 (well, diabo 3 is a sequel but anyway) I can
only think of M.A.X.  and  Elite right now.

I agreed with most everyone else on Final Fantasy 7 and 8. I'd also like to see Grandia 1 and 2 as well as Phantasy Star Online.

I think we can agree almost all RPGs that were decent could use an upgrade like this. Beyond RPGs though, I'd like a redo of the horror games from the PS2. Mainly stupid camera angles and non retarded controls.

Parasite eve was cool, old school RE etc.

Carmageddon 2:

Redone graphics and physics, maybe add more modes to the gameplay, but still keeping the awesome Iron Maiden songs.
For one thing, Tiff is not on any level what I would call a typical American.  She's not what I would consider a typical person.  I don't know any other genius geneticist anime-fan martial artist marksman model-level beauties, do you?

I'd be more interested in FFVI being redone before VII. Also the Lunar games... those ruled. And Legend of Dragoon, as already mentioned.

Xenogears. The story was rushed near the end due to lack of budget perhaps. A remake would be awesome

I agree....but Ill add my own reason, the bad dubbing.

Here is my list of games that should be redone.

The entire Phantasy Star series (1-4) - completely redone with anime cutscenes
Breath Of Fire (1-4) - same as with the Phantasy Star one
Metroid & Super Metroid - redone as the Metroid Prime(s) style
