. Had a blast playing it, had a good cliffhanger ending, just a shame they couldn't make the follow up games.

star wars rogue sqaudron and star wars episode 1 racer. played the first rogue squadron and racer on the n64, would love to play those games with better graphics
Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World.
The original Tales of Symphonia was a masterpiece, and Dawn of the New World was a disaster. Weirdly, this is a sequel that would be better if it were ported back to the engine of the first game.
Starsiege: Tribes.
There was a game for Amiga and ST called Eco. It was a great concept and a terrible game really, too slow, too random, and eventually too easy when you knew the pattern. But it was a great concept, and something like it but with smaller genetic steps/algorithm generated body forms. Think an entire game based around the creature phase of Spore. Or, spore as it was originally marketed I guess! There's a couple of indies working on similar concepts at the moment, but nothing has quite 'clicked' for me yet.
Most games I can think of wouldn't actually be that great, because their mechanics haven't aged all that well, and they'd need to be remade rather than just remastered.
Case in point: the original Deus Ex, the Thief Games, the original Witcher. All games that were great and even groundbreaking at the time of release, but would need way more than a graphical overhaul to stand up today.
That being said, I will definitely pay for the remaster of 'The Pandora Directive', an absolute classic of the FMV adventure genre. And I'm keeping an eye on the Witcher remake.
will EA be involved in this? in that case lets just leave everything as it is.
SHOGO!
