Wouldn't mind seeing a graphical update for the Ultima games. Would probably prefer it in a Pillars of Eternity style engine rather than some more close up 3D type affair like Divinity. I know there was a fan made mod for Ultima 5 made in the Dungeon Siege engine, but something official would be good, especially for Ultima 7
What retro game would you like to see modernised?

Wow you guys are all my type of old school gamers !!!
Streets of rage , been remade already
Double dragon , been remade.
Syndicate = satteleight reign (cant spell) - remake but lame.
I would love "It came from the desert 1+2 " made into a open world game that gets more and more infested with time, that game scared the infinite poop outta me, the music was to this day terrifying when i hear it.
Also
Eye of the beholder + HIRED GUNS would both work spectacularly in the modern age , with 4 player coop fprpg like skyrim, or in the original 1 square movement format

F19 Stealth Fighter.
Had this way back on the Atari ST. Picked up the highest score ever awarded by ST Format magazine- 96%.
Gameplay was superb, lost a serious number of hours to that game. If they could do that again, but with modern graphics etc...

YES !!
I can imagine it and it feels so good, it was actually so advanced, the multiplayer pve battle royale esque quest race
I owned this game but never had a master system. Did it come out on anything else?

Last Ninja series, loved these back in the day but like all retro games its probably already been 'reimagined' already.
It seemed like an age in development and used to drool over the screenshots in Zzap64

A great choice and suggestion, 100% agree, keep it a 2D game.
Another albeit, cheeky suggestion, as it is new when compared to suggestions, although 10 years old - Left for Dead!
The graphics to this day are still fine, the only criticism, it missed some friendly's, e.g. it would be good to see other survivors fighting on the maps to make it seem like 28 Days. This was the only issue I had with the game.
Well if they are still with us pass on my appreciation
I'd hope they are as this was around the time I graduated with my degree, or a year or two later. So sadly I was well passed nursery school when I first came across it on the BBC Micro.
