Bonanza Bros, Blast Corps, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Vampire: The Masquerade -Bloodlines, Cruisn World, LEGO Battles, NBA Jam
Bonanza Bros would be a great couch co-op multiplayer game in a world where we need more. It would benefit from some gameplay tweaks, and adding online play and 4 players would be big.
Blast Corps was awesome, I found it to be an extremely underrated Rare game. This game in an engine with simulated rubble and crazy explosions would be a gem. I also think changing the camera to first person should be an option at the very least.
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days got its cutscenes remastered. I want the full game. It was dripping in atmosphere, and I loved the premise of scouting the new worlds. The graphics could use an upgrade, and the combat could be brought up to par with KH2. But, I love the leveling system and think it would barely need touching.
Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines is awesome and not super long. It's extremely buggy, but luckily there's a modder named Wesp5 who has spend YEARS creating an Unofficial Patch, to a point where all the cut content is restored and it's essentially feature-complete. There's a version that just patches the game, and a restored content version. I think he should be given a team and be allowed to curate content and rebalance cut mechanics for a remake. It would be magical.
Cruisn World is one of my favorite arcade racers ever. It has untouchable vibes, and I'd just like to see that with a nice sheen over it, maybe more levels and vehicles?
LEGO Battles is an RTS for the Nintendo DS. Put it on PC, nuff said.
NBA Jam is not very niche. I want a remake, and I don't care if it's up-to-date. It's the best sports game period.
Given that they remade Chain of Memories entirely, I am really surprised they never did it for 358/2.
Shadow of memories sounds nice.
I can see a good remake of terranigma
xenogears
Die hard trilogy.
A new non ubisoft splinter cell
Alister McGee's Alice. Pretty much a horror version of Alice in Wonderland, and it's a platformer with trippy graphics. I thought it was pretty fun.
I would love to see F.E.A.R. with updated graphics. Preferably just a remaster, but if it was remade in the same spirit as the Dead Space remake was, I'd be down for that too, especially if they brought back Fettel's voice actor.
I'd like to see a return of the old racing games with hundreds of cars and performance customization
I haven't seen a game like juiced in quite some time with money on the line for each race
I want a remake of the original Harry Potter 1 and 2 games from the PS1. Not asking much, anything that looks nicer than this would do
How dare you, this Hagrid is beautiful
LEGEND OF DRAGOON
Ultima 7 I guess. I never got into it but I keep hearing his great it was. Final Fantasy VI, because it was my first and therefore the best. Space Crusade because it was just that fun.
I'd love to see Chrono Trigger get the 2D-3D octopath-style remake that a few old SNES games have gotten.
None, let them be, let the era of redoing finally end please
Vib-Ribbon.
It's one of the coolest concepts I've seen for PSx. It's a rhythm game that loads into the console's ram, allowing you to swap the disc to one of your CDs and could generate unique levels for your songs.
While looking it up I did find there was a PS3 port, but I don't know how good that is or if it has the same custom level feature or not. I'd love a modern version that looks visually similar but allows you to either input a playlist from a service like yt or use your own local files to generate unique levels.
Check out Audiosurf!
From what I've seen, it looks good. Can't play the demo for the 2nd game, but from some of the footage I've seen, it looks fun. Thanks for the suggestion.
I’d love to see Ocarina of Time and Majoras Mask get a full remade release, bundled together into one game ideally. Sure we got the 3ds remakes but I wanna see it back on home consoles, like tp and ww HD.
There is a GitHub project working on a recompilation of both of these for PC. They've got Majora's Mask working and are working on OoT. Looks beautiful, runs buttery smooth, and has custom controls with a free camera.
That's crazy, I had no idea. I'm definitely gonna have to check that out. Thanks for letting me know
Right now, I'd really like the Gex games. Underrated 2D platformer, and a pair of goofy early 3D collectathons!
Hopefully the remake of the trilogy is still in production. I've got it on my wishlist from Limited Run Games, lol
Subspace Continuum
Shadow of Memories is such a good game. That's all I had to say.
It doesn't need a remaster, but a PC port of Lost Odyssey would be awesome.
I would enjoy a copy of Mechwarrior 4: Vengeance with some spiffed up lighting effects, maybe the mech pack mechs included in the base game, and higher resolution copies of the FMV segments. I have my original copy but I can't get it to run on Linux. Wonder if there's a way to wash a CD game through Steam Play. Lutris...doesn't function as software? It's one of those magnetic "performance enhancing" bracelets, it doesn't do anything but it has convinced a LOT of people it does.
This may be stretching the premise a little bit but I would like to play the game they thought they were making when they made Ride To Hell: Retribution.
Sid Meier's Pirates! There are so few actually good pirate games.
I'm here once again to humbly submit the suggestions of Dungeon Keeper and Black and White. That is all.
Black and White for sure. I still get nostalgic for that one.
We simply can't leave until we get some wheeeaaat!
I was talking to my SO about it recently and we both kinda agreed you'd probably have to update the core gameplay so it would be a little more interesting/engaging but overall B&W was fun. Hell, even Spore redone properly (aka not by fucking EA) I would love too. That one always makes me sad to think about, and we've not really had anything like it since.
Elite 2: Frontier.
elite dangerous is very close but it doesn't really capture the seamlessness you get from not having a landing mode or frame shifting. pioneer spaceship sim is a remake in the truest sense of the word, but a remaster would fix the ui issues the original had rather than just rolling with them.
Dangerous was originally supposed to be single player only, then they got so much money they promised to add the mp... And long after the ks finished they switched to online only. I was really pissed off. There's always X I guess
no it wasn't. i backed the kickstarter. it was always an online game, it just had "solo" and "private" modes. and they didn't get "so much money", they got like 120% of their target. they were up against the star citizen kickstarter and that got all the hype.
my main issue with ED is that they focused on building a modern Elite rather than a modern Elite 4. Building upon the ideas of Frontier: First Encounters would have made a very different game.
X is more like Freelancer meets Euro Truck Simulator, in my experience.
This might be too many, but what I want to see remade, remastered, or given complete editions (although "complete editions" may not be relevant to the post topic; and some titles may not be considered niche but whatever) are Asura's Wrath, Bloodborne, Bujingai, Bully, Dante's Inferno, Dark Sector, Dead Rising 2 (and Off the Record), The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai, the F.E.A.R. series, From Dust, God Hand, Grand Theft Auto IV, the first two Gungrave games, Just Cause, killer7, L.A. Noire, the Legend of Spyro trilogy, Like a Dragon Kenzan!, Mary Skelter 2, NieR: Automata, NieR: Replicant, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, Ninja Gaiden 3, No More Heroes 2, Prototype, Red Steel 1 and 2, Rising Zan: The Samurai Gunman, Solatorobo: Red the Hunter, Spec Ops: The Line, the original Splinter Cell (plus Pandora Tomorrow, Chaos Theory, Double Agent, and Conviction), Stranglehold, Tail Concerto, Viewtiful Joe 1 and 2, Watch Dogs 1 and 2, and the original World Ends with You.
Primarily, the goals would be to either restore cut content or integrate separate DLC into the main package, offer enhanced graphics, take advantage of the 16:9 aspect ratio if originally released during the time of 4:3 screens or on handhelds, or fix bugs or address technical limitations that affected their original console or PC releases, alongside numerous quality-of-life improvements like anti-cheat and DRM removal and extensive performance optimizations. Also, we're still waiting for a PC release for Bloodborne.
I do agree with the Splinter Cell series yeah.
Although I'm confused, why did you include Nier Replicant and Automata? Automata has already a complete version, and Replicant already had a remaster/remake/director's cut version 3 years ago.
Because I'm concerned that both their current PC versions still remain buggy messes. I'd wait until the devs provide updates on those to address these issues.
Gauntlet: Dark Legacy
Any game in that genre combined with local and remote multiplayer would be a hit
I'm outing me as ancient:
- M.U.L.E.
- Load Runner
- The Castles of Dr. Creep
- Seven Cities of Gold
- Paradroid
- The Sentinel
- Hanse / Kaiser / Fugger
My wishlist is Final Fantasy Tactics, Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, and Xenogears. A Xenogears remake likely isn't ever happening so I'd be happy with a remaster, and it's practically an open secret at this point that an FFT project is in development. It getting the Tactics Ogre Reborn treatment would be lovely, but what I really want is an orchestrated soundtrack. Here's hoping it doesn't get cancelled. 🤞
As a genre, 4X is still kicking around, but I'm not even sure if SMAC is beloved enough to get the treatment. Good voice acting would be essential.
Xenogears! Yes! I guess I'll have to be happy with Xenoblade
Deus Ex. When I first played it I was amazed by the graphics and I specifically remember being impressed that your character was reflected in mirrors. I've been replaying it recently and the graphics are obviously very dated, but it also doesn't run smoothly on modern hardware. My PC gets louder and louder as I play it and eventually the game starts to stutter and I have to restart it.
