If you could revive a PC Game Franchise?

Icewind Dale

Freelancer

Sim City

Mechwarrior

SWAT

Vampire - The Masquerade

also

NOLF was a great "series" (2 titles)

and of course

System Shock!!!

Maybe we get to see Cate Archer again - but I think they won't do it because it would not become a financial success in the todays world of "cool" MW soldier crap...

If it was done well, System Shock. :D

Myst

soul river

Rayman (not the crappy thing with the rabbits but something like rayman 2)

Psychonauts

Tony hawk pro skater

MORE FIGHTING GAMES.

command and conquer when westwood was making them lolstreetridaz

If it was done well, System Shock. :D

longtonguecat

The Age of Empires series

The Age of Mythology seies

The SWAT series

Rainbow Six

And i would really, really like Alan Wake for PC.

Another World/Flashback

It's not exactly a franchise but i would like a sequel of Sacrifice. :DDaRockWilder

Dungeon Keeper. No doubt for me.

a proper successor to EMPIRE EARTH PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!

other than that umm... Hexen? there is Hexen: Edge of Chaos coming though...

how about a Daikatana remake? the potential was there... it was just the worst develop management in the history of gaming.

Homeworld.

While it's not exactly as popular as some other titles, I want to see at least a sequel to Star Wars: Republic Commando. That game was really fun, especially the squad commanding part.

Another series I would like to see get rebooted would be Advent Rising. That was a pretty fun game, despite its flaws.

I'd give almost anything to have Homeworld 3.

Rise of Nations

Age of Empires

Warcraft(as a strategy game)

I hope Starcraft will change the way developers approach the RTS genre.

• Homeworld
• Etherlords
• Freedom Force
• Call of Cthulhu

Not exactly franchise, but I would want to see a sequel of those

Freelancer

Republic Commando (too bad LA made it and forgot about it, I'd rather have that than TFU2)

lol They are refering to a traditional RPG, the one Heros is based on.

For me:

Might and Magic
Baldur's Gate
Dark Sun (I'm surprised no one has mentioned this one yet, great old school RPGs.)

Dark Sun is a fantastic game...to be honest I really miss most of the games SSI made starting way back to Pool of Radiance. So many great titles...Eye of the Beholder, Stronghold (not the one most of you are thinking of), Dark Sun, Al Qaddim...lots of great game.

Then there's other RPG games like Lands of Lore, Ultima, Betrayal at Krondor, and stuff like that...never get's mentioned on this site. It's always Baldur's Gate, Planescape, ect ad nasuem. Not that they weren't amazing games, but so many great games from the past are forgotten here.

Personally I would like to see any one of the above RPG's remade, or others like:

Syndicate

Magic Carpet

Big Red Racing (1nsane Racing is pretty close, though and fairly recent)

Hexen

Quarantine

Dungeon keeper

the Summoning

might and magic

Original War

Twinson's adventure games

lords of magic

if those could be brought back i'd be a very happy pc gamer.

Oh, I always mention them; in this very topic I mentioned Ravenloft, Lands of Lore and Ultima Underworld.

Of the games you cited the only one I haven't played is Big Red Racing. And I didn't like Syndicate (although I tried, it was considered "cool" at the time; if memory doesn't trick me there was even a sequel), Magic Carpet (1 and 2) and Quarantine (Quarantine was awful; it's that game where you drive a cab, right?).

I'll never forget the final battle in Dark Sun 1. DS 2 had a game-breaking bug here (where you need to activate a fountain or something in order to enter some caves), so I couldn't finish it. This is one of the franchises I would revive too...

Old-school RULES! :twisted:
