I believe this will mostly affects games which were lacking in technology.

I'd personally LOVE to see The Sims 1 or The Sims 2 re-released with performance and resolution upgrades, and, most importantly, made to be open world. Since they're older, I believe they could very easily render the entire map like The Sims 3, but with the charm of TS1 or TS2.

I cannot think of other games, since most games I see as adequate, whereas TS1 and TS2 were bound by system performance during their respective times.

Probably a better candidate for a remake but I'd really love to see no one lives forever 1&2 remade.

The top down grand theft Auto games for game boy were really fun

Duke Nukem. Hear me out, Duke Nukem Forever was garbage and was the butt of many jokes. It was considered vaporware until it came out and was dated when it did come out. The humor in the 3D version is juvenile and wouldn't translate today. Actually, nevermind. I just liked it and thought it was fun but there's no way it could exist in today's world.

I don't care if I'm the only one who'd play it, remake Grand Prix Legends.

[–] TORFdot0@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

No remasters. Instead build in backwards compatibility so gamers can still play their original games.

I don’t care for remasters, I’d rather play something new. Remakes and remasters are cash grabs in my opinion. Same goes for remakes and reboots in movies too

Some games need huge QoL updates. I'd like to see a balance of backwards compatibility along with the ability to toggle QoL settings. Give the player a choice to play OG or with modern QoL mechanics

Not a remake but I think another addon for Diablo 2 would still be awesome.

I'm still waiting on a gritty grimdark 3d remake of Burger Time.

American McGee's Alice

It was amazing to first play with trippy visuals, but playing it decades later, it was fairly disappointing. The sequel, Alice: Madness Returns was a let down to me as well.

I've love to see a remake of Dino crisis in the vein of the recent Resident Evil remakes.

Quarantine from 1994 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quarantine_(video_game)

It's just fun vehicular carnage but I think with modern graphics and maybe an actual story, it could be a success today.

The Guardian Legend

Parasite Eve 2.

But not the horrible attempts they made with the later additions (that hardly followed the canon of the story or style anyway).

  • Sly Cooper trilogy: Although it was made in the 2000s, I like Sly Cooper because it gave me a curiosity for other cultures and isn't just set in America. Also, the soundtrack is GOATed.

I've been beating this drum for years, but Autoduel as a MMORPG.
