If You Could Have 1 Game Re-Released...

[Yewen]

Space Invaders

Hahaha!

That would translate well into a new game, don't think it is possible but by the point of the thread; boy it would make a great blast for 20 minutes here and there!

 

[Luke]

Wasteland.

 

[jim5000]

Diablo 2

 

[Fulcrum]

Space Invaders

and why not! Theres a load of games that could be converted from 2d to the full HDR high res 3D graphics treatment, couldnt be that hard surely. Imagine space invaders from a FPS point of view so its almost like the opening scene in terminator 2, awesome

 

[The Running Man]

close combat 3. goes for like 50 squid now a days, fantastic game, would be awesome with true LOS etc with a semi 3d terrain engine

 

[stewc]

Quazatron, Laser Squad and Chaos from the Speccy era
Stunt Car Racer, Dungeon Master from Atari St

 

[Behemoth]

Need for speed road challenge. That game was just incredible. I wish ea went back to the road challenge style than the mod this, tune that, crash into a car head on and drive off perfectly.

Your talking about 3 years of my life when you mentioned that game, it can ve made to work under XP and modern hardware

Also, I;d love to see a remake of Interstate 76, I loved that game, completed it oh soooo many times

 

[OtherSide]

Kingpin.

 

[Mr Bulbous]

Ultima Underworld

 

[Squark]

I would love a spangly gorgeous AvP

That game nearly killed me, it was awsome though

 

[Mobius 1]

Kingpin.

Agreed, excellent game, IMO. And the fact i played itw hen i was like, 13 the swearing just owned

But deffo Deus Ex, that game is still amazing even today. I'd like to see a remake for such classics as LBA1/2. Or Soviet Strike with 3D graphics (maybe a BF2 sort of engine), that would be cool. I always liked that game.

 

[Inquisitor]

I'd love to see Deux Ex remade using current gen graphics and using proper ragdoll physics as well. It'd be absolutely mint.

Hell yeah

 

[Echo]

Duke 3D

And those who mentioned Stuntcar (of which I was a big fan, 2 amigas and a parallel cable!), I think Trackmania has pretty much nailed that genre

 

[Lee456]

close combat 3. goes for like 50 squid now a days, fantastic game, would be awesome with true LOS etc with a semi 3d terrain engine

That's a choice and a half!

I'd have that second choice though, first would have to be SoF2 just so that it'd attract new players that I could walk over

 

[Ukadder]

Would have to say Ultima Online for me!

 

[MajinV]

A collectors edition was realeased years ago of x-wing and tie fighter with updated graphics but nothing recently. There is an update for X-wing alliance with improved graphics but thats about it as far as i know.

The Upgrade you mention is at XWA Upgrade Project

Some of these guys are really talented and have been doing this project for a few years now. Releases aren't hugely fast, but almost all the ships you'd want to see made 100% better are done

 

[Raikiri]

Space Invaders

Theres a version on the PS1

I would have to say FF7 and/or FF8

 

[Rojin]

Gunship 2000 I'd love to see an update of that, spent many an hour on the ole A1200 on that. Another vote for Frontier Elite 2 as well. Anyone remember Cyclone on the speccy?

 

[BubbySoup]

System Shock, the first one that is.

Or perhaps Lords of Midnight - I loved that game sooo much!

 

[geeza]

Blood then duke nuken 3D and finally Kingpin


I played Blood for so many hours its untrue. Blood 2 was crap in comparision, i think it was the 'updated' engine that ruined it. and the quake engine for blood was shockingly poor.

The level design, AI, sound and general gameplay all worked together very well. Pity you cant just play it in compatibility mode with origional music and sound effects, instead of trying 101 ways to get it working in dosbox using VMS sound and a shed load of other programs/methods
