Games that should be remade
2004-06-15, 9:34 PM #41
Chrono Trigger is beautiful.

But Geb, if you want awesome games with non-changing-scenes-stupid-battle-switches, you must must play Secret of Mana and Secret of Mana 2. The first has a kinda awkward control setup but you get used to it. The second's however is wodnerfully streamlined, it's real-time on-site battles like zelda, ie run around and hit things, not stay-in-one-place-jump-to-hit-things-then-return menu-driven like CT, but with a radial menu you can bring up for commands items or spells if you wish. SoM2 is one of the single most gorgeous SNES games i have ever layed eyes on.

Yeah, actually, I played SoM a couple times, and it is fun. They need more RPGs like CT and SoM damnit!

Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games with a graphics update and a more coherent main campaign, and maybe a more versatile mission editor. Oh, and add online multiplayer. Wait, don't, online multiplayer always has idiots, and they don't deserve such a great game. JA [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]G had (or has) a multiplayer mode anyway, just not online (albeit TCP/IP was supported).

As for Jagged Alliance and Jagged Alliance 2...well...add all the Deadly Games elements (mission and campaign editor, multiplayer etc.) and update at least the first one's graphics.

As for Silent Storm (which is a very new game, released either late 2003 or early 2004), change nothing and release a Special Marketed Version...now with the marketing it deserves, so people will actually play it!

No, i meant the level of graphics, but to make sure bugs are taken care of. i would have a decent team to the upgrade, Ion Storm has already proved thier incompetance.

I would LOVE an updated version of Street Rod 2.
There was just something so cool about going in races, winning money, sifting through the paper to buy spare parts, and actually removing some bolts here and there to give you the feel that you're working on your car, rather that just clicking one button and "magic" you have a new engine. I would still go for the older style cars as well, not current cars. There's just something really classy about them.

I thought KHG was rather cool.

Wasn't the best FPS, but it definatly had some really cool crap.

(I.E Bodies floating in anti-gravity and spinning around while spewing blood slowly that just drifted off, that was awsome!) (and that cheat that stoped time. but you could still walk around and stuff)

Noooo!

Commander Keen should be made as a 2d game with 3d models, like Viewtiful Joe.

They should also remake Hunter Hunted for some of the consoles.

Enter the Matrix. You should play as characters that you actually give a crap about. The graphics should be better. The controls should be better. The fighting was cool, but needs expanded.

In short, make it so it doesn't suck.

That game rocked. Too bad all I can find is the shareware versions.

As for Chrono Trigger, I'd love to see the same top-down look, but make it rotatable, and make all the monsters 3D. And maybe leave the important characters, such as the Chrono Crew, Queen Zeal, Queen Leene, etc in beautiful 2D anime-style art. Basically when you go into battle, the monsters would be 3d. The only thing that would be 2D are NPCs, and your characters.

Valve are making something called "Half life source" which will be the original HL on the Hl2 engine. I dont have a link but googling it should bring some answers.
