Games that should be remade, improved or just need sequels.

    What games do you guys think would be great if they were remade and fixed up, with better graphics or features.

    Here's my list.

    Road Rash - the first one should definitely be remade on xbox live with a multiplayer. It would be so awesome to have 16 players online, the game was and still is fun as a singleplayer, I can only imagine how great it would be as a multi, + updated graphics.

    The Need For Speed(First one) - The best NFS game released, needs updated graphics, multiplayer, cars and tracks.

    Sega Rally - They released one recently but it sucked the original is better.

    GTA2 - I liked the overhead view.

    Driver - The third one was terrible, first one is still the best.

    Tobal 2 - needs a sequel.

    Rally Cross.

    Mortal Kombat Trilogy.

    Twisted Metal 2 and 3.

    Almost had a 3d streets of rage. Wouldn't imagine it being very good to be honest. It works perfectly in 2d. There's no need to change it!







    Scrolling beat em ups just don't transfer well into 3d.

    I'd love to see Chrono Ressurection finished. Not that it would ever happen though. :(

    The original Sonic The Hedgehog series would look amazing with HD sprites.

    Games needing a sequel? Duke Nukem! :D

    Anybody actually still believe we'll ever see this game?

    I'd love to see another game in the Conker's series á la Bad Fur Day, one of the wittiest games I've ever played.

    Birth of the Federation


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,731 ✭✭✭✭K.O.Kiki


    A sequel to TIE Fighter, thanks.

    On PC, too; I LIKE having to spend hours learning how to fly - just so I can feel like a Dark Lord as I blast those Rebel scum! :pac:

    X-Wing Alliance 2 or something wouldn't be amiss, either.

    Good choice, having darth vader as your wingman was the coolest thing ever.

    Crackdown

    They decided not to make a sequel . Its a shame as the first one is great.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,399 ✭✭✭✭r3nu4l


    The Last Ninja 2.

    Platoon

    Someone needs to make a sequel to Monkey Island.

    If APB does well I wouldn't write off a sequel. They have announced that they aren't working on it but that doesn't mean that they wont exploit the IP in years to come.

    Streets of rage with destructible environments and everything can be used as weapons, they could put in unlock able clothing and fighting moves.

    4 player co-op on xbox live...:rolleyes:

    loved all of the x-wing games, wish they would make more.

    There is kind of a new mechwarrior game comin out though. its a full conversion mod for crysis, but the guys making it have support from crytek and from microsoft who own the game rights for the series. looks like it could be really good.:D

    Syndicate and/or Syndicate Wars.

    This simply cannot be emphasised enough.

    Tie Fighter, Wing Commander and Dune.

    Another Wing COmmander Movie/Game?

    Even with Mark Hamill it was getting a bit tedious.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,132 ✭✭✭silvine


    But it's been a good few years since we have any Wing Commanders (excluding that trash Xbox Live Arcade title).

    Oi,
    ConanM

    Nooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
    Leave the UFO series alone, to many developers there tried to reinvent the wheel and knackered the franchise, UFO Enemy Unknown was perfect as it was.

    You'll be messing with Robotron next,
    and sticking it on XBLA,
    wait,
    what???

    Nooooo!!!!!!!!!

    It definately could do with a good sequel. Duke Nukem 3D was an amazing upgrade from Duke Nukem I & II, but Duke Nukem Manhattan Project was an abysmal upgrade from Duke Nukem 3D!

    I'm surprised there isn't talk of a Duke Nukem movie too. I can easily picture Wesley Snipes doing it, although he has dark skin so... ...(and is now convicted of tax fraud - oh dear).
