Are there any old games you'd like to see remade for the pc (with new gen graphics and all that mambo)? I would like to see them remake Ecstatica (old DOS game, I wonder if anyone's ever played that one), Alpha Centaury, Duke Nukem (now that Duke Nukem Forever is officially dead), and Vagrant Story (I know is an PSX game and it's not so old, but it was one of my favorite RPG's when I had my PS one :)

Pretty much my list, minus Kotor of course. I would also add Ground Control to the mix and XIII.

I would love a remake of outcast, in it's day it used the voxel rendering system and it would totally rock to be remade with polygons :-

outcast

Then there is Carrier Command :-

Carrier Command

But it looks like some one had the same idea since there is a sequel being made, more info here.

Then just to make my life totally complete I really wish someone would remake the two midwinter series games by Mike Singleton :-

Midwinter

None of this will ever happen though, the software industry seems to be too busy telling me what I want to play rather than listening to what gamers are telling them.

One of my favourite RTS - Warzone 2100 - Loved that game you could design your own units. Anyone know of any games like it where you can customise units e.g. swapping vechicles bodies or guns?

Earth 2150 my man

Earth 2160 is similiar, but not as good imo due to horrible voiceacting and odd basebuilding

I know! :D what I meant was that even if they asked 50 bucks for, I'd pay 'em! Half Life 1 is one of the best games ever imo, probably the best FPS ever made. Now, having that running with today's graphics.. *drools*

Yes but the original Deus Ex is still one of my favorite games ever. All I want is just for that game to get a graphical upgrade. That's it. Don't touch the gameplay. I don't think the new Deus ex can compete with deus ex 1

Realms of the Haunting

Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2 and Mysteries of the Sith

System Shock 2

Interstate '76

Wing Commander Prophecies

Total Annihilation

Gabriel Knight 2: The Beast Within (must be good voice acting)

Quake (well a sequel that has stong single-player and uses the creepy medieval setting and monsters of the original Quake).

Basically, good games that have some trouble running on today's systems or are in need of a graphical upgrade.

I don't think that needs to be remade, I still have that and I think it looks and plays great with the Quake III engine.

Actually, it should be re-made, i looked at the prices on Amazon.....must be rare. Lucky i have the original Planescape: Torment, Wizardry VIII, and American McGee's Alice :).

Wtf man, just checked Amazon. You can't even buy the game anymore without spending $70+ even on used copies.

Does that make it okay to get this game in other ways? (You know what I mean) (If you don't like this post mods, just delete it)

Yeah, ended up seeing it after I posted. Ah well.

Well seeing as the people who made this game can no longer make money off of it, I think that makes it okay to download it, right?

Ditto for Dungeon Keeper. Since I'm a flight sim nut..... 1942: Pacific Air War with the AI patch. The Japanese Zeros in that game were very relentless in staying at my six o'clock.

A game that needs a new addition to the series is Super Mario RPG =0o

But that would never come to PC.

Maybe
Resident Evil 2 & 3 (Nemesis in next gen graphics?!)

Edit: Oh.. PC games I think should be remade

If it is JUST PC games then there really arent any I can think of. I can think of sequels I would like, but those are comming (Diablo III :)). But I would love to see Goldeneye 64 and perfect dark 64 remade with more then just graphics and controls. A whole revamp on PC. Basically I love those games but noone makes good FPS games like those anymore. Best one to come since those are Timesplitters and those are long gone now :(.

Hmmm most the games that I love that are old really don't need a revamp, because PC makes all these old games feel smooth and crisp, so they don't REALLY feel old.

I think he was more referring to the camera angle and dialogue options, but I dont think similar aiming with some spells and a bow would be bad, and you can swing a sword with a crosshair too

Meh, I don't know why, I guess I just regard them so highly that I don't want them to change, especially since the people who made them have gone out of business.

In case you didn't know, there is a Goldeneye mod for the Source engine. Goldeneye Source Beta 4 is the latest version I believe. Only multiplayer though.

Thanks but yeah i did know. I figured someone would say that ;). It is great, but I am talking even more of a redone model with the SP in tact. The mod is great and I commend them, but it still lacks something.
