Classic Games You'd Like To See Modernized

Betrayal at Krondor all the way. That game would be great with better graphics and new riddle chests... This game is so awesome, though I suppose a lot of you prolly won't know it. Also, maybe Sonic 3 too with the sonic & knuckles add on

Mmmm... so many good titles of old, so many new stupid ways to ruin them.
But i think like that: when I get resources or rights to re-make some, i would remake in great style:

- DungeonKeeper (1, 2 and made the 3)
- ULTIMA (whole saga)
- RIVER RAID
- BURGERTIME
- DREDNAUGH FACTOR (intellivision rulled!)
- Kyrandia (whole saga - rpg system)
- Lands od Lore (ditto)
... there's more, but... i think all the franchises belongs to either EA or VU (as everthing else).

nobody thinks King of Dragons?

!!!! $:-\$

Try it out, it rocks! It's one of the best games ever!

It would be sweet to see an updated Faxanadu, as well.

biohazard · March 21, 2007, 01:22:39 PM

I'm to stupid to use google... so what is Faxanadu?

Vagrant Story is open ended, and they indeed were planning a sequel, but because the game didnt sell so well, they scrapped it. Bastards they only have themselves to blame too, Square hardly promoted it at all, instead giving all their promotional power to FFVIII

Haha a boy and his blob <3 I totally remember that. I liked Galaxy 5000 too :3. An update to the Blaster Master Franchise would be awesome.

CRAP! That's not fair...!

*Sniffs*

I was going to suggest Vagrant Story, because I never had a chance to buy it.

There are many great games out there that have been underrated unfairly...

Well... I would sure love to see many of the TLoZ classics modernized for the Wii. And I am not talking about emulating, formatting or any of that. I talk about re-making them for the young ones, so that they can enjoy of those games that were there years before their birth. And since many kids that any game that is not 3D should suck, they should re-make the games with the latest graphics...
But that probably won't happen, since there are more important projects for them to finish. But, it's still nice to imagine it.

I'm playing Lufia 2 on ZNES... its a good game

Metal Marine - Namaco (Snes) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_Marines

Blizzard · March 21, 2007, 03:00:01 PM

Imagine Terranigma 3D...

Ericmor · March 21, 2007, 03:23:42 PM

Ah, Blizz... Terranigma was good, but the END, man... THE END!!!! The end ruined the game!!!
Terranigma 3d would be cool, but the end should be fixed.
Secret of Gaia too. (Or it was Legend of Gaia? Damn.)

Holkeye · March 21, 2007, 10:47:10 PM

It was Illusion of Gaia. And Illusion of Time in Europe. Best game in the series.

Blizzard · March 22, 2007, 01:37:35 PM

Yeah, Illusion of Time/Gaia was good, but I liked Terranigma more.
Yeah, the end could have really been better. I liked how he was...

[spoiler]...actually created from evil and that he turned against them, but it was kinda weird... But I liked that the "evil" isn't shown as absolute, but in a completely different way like "Light creates, Darkness destroy everything that is not important."[/spoiler]

SexualBubblegumX · March 22, 2007, 05:02:44 PM

Gauntlet. That game kicks ass. If my NES still worked, I'd prolly play meh nes port of it right now.

Ericmor · March 22, 2007, 06:09:00 PM

Fuu... guntlet WAS remade, for the PS if i remember. "Gauntlet legends" or something... you played with all the four characters...
I personally liked the megadrive/genesis version of Gauntlet - i still rearing the BGM musics

SexualBubblegumX · March 22, 2007, 06:20:12 PM

Well, remake it again or omething. Gauntlet kicks total ass.

Holkeye · March 22, 2007, 08:20:41 PM

The new Gauntlet games are lame.

biohazard · March 22, 2007, 09:16:26 PM

As are the old ones.

haloOfTheSun · March 22, 2007, 09:27:07 PM

I never really liked the Gauntlet games either. Especially the new ones.

I was actually partial to Soul Blazer for some bizarre reason. But Illusion of Gaia was a close second.

biohazard · March 22, 2007, 09:36:30 PM

I'm playing Terranigma, Lufia 2, and Breath of Fire 2. Which is better?

I never got that far in it, of course I never really played it...although I own it.

GilgameshRO · March 23, 2007, 06:50:50 AM

Altered Beast
Golden Axe
Gunstar Heroes
Sunset Riders

A modern Oasis game would be pretty cool.

It's also about time for a new Panzer Dragoon game in my opinion.

Holkeye · March 23, 2007, 09:00:07 AM

There's a new gunstar heroes for gba. Check it out, its pretty sweet.

It was the N64 it was remade for. I never heard of a PS version.

If by "new" you mean the exact same game only ever so slightly modified then yes, there is.
