    I always end up being kind of disappointed with older games (speedball 2 and sensi soccer in particular)
    Would love to see a nice update of The Chaos Engine though

    O my god what a game.
    I use to play that on the c64.

    The c64 was the business, loading a ****n tape to play a game
    And sometimes when u got a little far in a game the tape would start loading again!!!!

    If u were really something u had a cartridge T2 was the only one i had!!

    Def would be my choices. Especially the original Resident Evil.
    You can get GTA for free these days on PC.

    Another World... God I loved that game

    There's a new version u can get for the PC for $8.. It a Visual feast(if u like vector artwork..) and brings back so many memories..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,653 ✭✭✭steviec


    Old games never live up to how you remember them, and if you really want to play them it's usually not hard to do so through emulation or other means.

    I'd rather see interesting new stuff on XBLA, as there isn't nearly enough of that.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,630 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    XWing vs Tiefighter, that would really rock.
    I'd like to see a MMO edition on Elite on the network, nice!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,847 ✭✭✭Julez


    Anyone play the old wrestling games on the N64? The one made by AKI?! (WCW Vs. NWO, No Mercy). Bring them out online would be unreal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,147 ✭✭✭ironictoaster


    Pilot Wings


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,651 ✭✭✭Captain Slow IRL


    Kwik Snax

    Kwik-snax-screenshot-gameplay.png

    Or any other decent Dizzy game!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,464 ✭✭✭ibFoxer


    Zool
    Superfrog
    Cannon Fodder
    Syndicate Wars

    God i miss those games....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,148 ✭✭✭mehfesto2


    Commander Keen 4 or Sonic the Hedgehog. It's available for the Ipod, is Sonic. I'd love to play that again on the Xbox.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 599 ✭✭✭TheWitch06


    Killer Instinct 1+2
    King of Fighters 2002/98
    Capcom Vs. SNK 2
    Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike (even though it's already backwards compatible for Xbox)
    Garou: Mark of the Wolves
    Marvel Vs. Capcom
    Street Fighter Alpha 3
    Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection
    Samurai Showdown
    Arcana Heart

    Theres more but I just can't think :/

    Goldeneye. In fairness, what else do you really need?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,229 ✭✭✭gloobag


    Hammerin' Harry. Possibly the greatest arcade game ever made :cool:

    Really? I never check the marketplace tbh. Thanks for that! To the Emerald Zone I go!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,213 ✭✭✭Keith186


    Very unlikely but a few of the Mario World games would be cool + Pilot Wings mentioned above... Maybe Starfox or whatever its called


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,505 ✭✭✭nevaeh-2die-4


    I Would love to see micro machines & mortal combat

    im going to be controversial and say i didnt buy my 360 to play old school games that i already have on other consoles. ;)

    That being said, i do have SF2, track and field on mine! :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,147 ✭✭✭mise


    Just downloaded a trailer for 1942 last night, looked good with fancy new graphics. Looking forward to that one..

    +1 for Micro Machines.. the Megadrive one with the extra controller ports on the cartridge


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,339 ✭✭✭✭tman


    Ooooh... +1 for Micro Machines
    Quite possibly one of the greatest multiplayer games ever created
