for myself i would love to see a new medievil game. ive been replaying the first one from ps1 and im loving it. would love to see a return to gallowmere in HD :D

They need to bring back Dark Cloud, it was a unique fantasy game with a mechanic i haven't seen in a while, levelling up swords and changing them into news ones.

Oni. I say it again and again, probably the best third person hand to hand combat I ever played on the PC. Add to that a neat balance between amount of ammunition, the weaponry of the enemies and amount of enemies so that you had to have some kind of strategy and could not waste your ammunition on normal thugs.

Yay, this thread again.
And I shall name my true love once again!
Dungeon Keeper

Republic Commando, pleasssseeee.

StarControl.

i agree with oni or at least a game with the same style of game-play and story

I'd also like a new breakdown game or a game with the same style of gameplay maybe more polished

If I was in the cynical mood I'd say Kingdom Hearts.

But seeing that I'm not, I'd say Baldur's Gate. I know that Dragon Age is supposed to be a "spiritual successor" to it but it's just not the same.

revived? tie fighter and x wing, wing commander, crusader no remorse/no regret, strike commander

we can all agree on SW battlefront here

Prince of Persia

Either star wars battlefront, or age of empires. I'm pretty sure the AoE studio is shut down, and if not they need to make another medieval one. No colonial ones >:(.

Is battlefront 3 definitely not happening? Or is it just vaporware?

Thief
- I've always wanted to revisit this series, but apparently I'm one of those defective gamers who's brain can't handle going backwards graphically (i.e. I have hard time going back and re/playing old games with outdated graphics)

Rome Total War
-Not strictly a series revival, as the total war studio is (I believe) still making games, but I specifically want to revisit this game. However, having played shogun and empire, I would like to see it remade with at least as much quality as those. Still probably my favorite in the series though.

Jedi Knight?
Good memories... ;_;

Metroid

give to to competant hands....

apologies for being "defective" :/.....

I need a TimeSplitters 4 button for these threads.

I'd like to see TimeSplitters 4, Battlefront 3, Republic Commandos 2, Evil Genius 2 and a Freedom Fighters 2. Loads more but there were the ones at the top of my head

Conkers Bad Fur Day. Go make more of that or remaster it or something. I shall wait, now go do it, right now, no time to waste, hop to it.

I'd LIKE to see a new "OUTLAWS" by the old Lucas Arts boys, but that's never gona happen and at least not in a way I'd enjoy it I'm sure... X3 What I'd REALLY like is for them to release a brand new boxed set of this game so that I may buy it and cherish it forever! I've only played it by borrowing it from my cousin and ever since I have wanted it but when I finally got old enough to walk into a store and buy it myself (dad didn't aprove of violent games for his little girl X3) they had stopped selling it =(.

Shadow Hearts. It was quirky and quirky gets me.

Jedi Knight series. Oh so want, it was awesome back then, it's still awesome to play now, would love to see it revived and done right, we could do a lot with it with today's tech.

Crusade No Remorse/Regret. Twas an isometric shooter from the 1990s back when Origin was still around.

Starwars Battlefront.

+1 for Star Control and Crusader.

Also, Master of Orion.

Chrono Trigger, KOTOR (I know we have TOR now, but its not the same).

I'm still waiting for Space Quest 7. It'll happen one day.

Wut he said, the more recent TW games haven't quite captured the magic of Rome. Luckily the game still holds up pretty well so it can still be played.

Just look at my avatar and you will have your answer.

If they do end up rebooting Soul Reaver(it has to be a reboot, anyone who played Defiance will know why) I just hope it's before Micheal Bell passes away. He's getting up there in age but in my mind he is the only one capable of being Raziel's voice actor.

For the love of...how many times do I have to answer this thread? Fine. Once more won't hurt.

As I've said numerous times before, Metal Arms: Glitch in the System is something I would kill to see a return to the spotlight.

Gonna post what I allways post in these threads..

Legacy of Kain

and Lost Kingdoms (Multiplatform, as I'm kinda done with Nintendo for a while)

This is one of those threads that just doesn't stop reviving.

Rise of Nations
NHL game for PC
a Codemasters rally game with emphasis on the rally (less buggies, landrush etc. and gymkhana is freakishly difficult with a gaming wheel), and customization options similar to new NFS games.

I'd say banjo kazooie but we kinda already have a new one, it just went in a different direction to what the other two were.

Jet force Gemini perhaps?

Eternal Darkness. It will never be done to my satisfaction, but whatever.

TimeSplitters 4.
Great classic gameplay and different style of story would make it stand out in the current FPS market.
Although I'd honest even go for a TimeSplitters 3 remake with online gameplay added in and maybe some more extras.
