Classic games you wish would get a digital release

You can get that off Origin right?, doesn't it come with the Origin version of Madness Returns?

As far as I know you can't. I went and looked too. Don't know about if you got it with the Origin MR because I got the steam version, and I really don't feel like giving EA my money for the same game again unless I'm sure I'd get AMA as well.

I've always wanted to play Chrono Cross. I've heard nothing but good things about it, and what I've read regarding the weird Magus-starring connecting game has made me VERY curious as to what it really is.

It would be nice to have a more accessible edition of Twin Snakes too, since right now if you want to play MGS1 you have to put up with it's not very well-aged mechanics and controls.

Skies of Arcadia Legends; Every year I dig out my Gamecube and put that game in again to enjoy one of the best JRPGs ever made.

Psi-Ops the Mindgate Conspiracy - A franchise in need of a revival. A re-release would be great. Psychic powers are just awesome, and this is probably the one game that portrayed it the most awesome (Second Sight tried, but it did not have as good gameplay - Great plot though).

YES!!!!!

What was so sad is that the ending of the game basically said "THERE WILL BE A SEQUEL!!!" in giant flashing letters, but we never got anything. But yes, best 'psychic powers' game ever.

Battle Realms: Criminally under-appreciated RTS game that took place in a fantasy feudal Japan setting (similar to "Legend of the Five Rings"). Combine that with the fact that a fantasy Japan setting is a criminally underused setting in games. I mean, seriously, has anyone ever said "You know what we need less of? Games where you can play as a Samurai, Ninja, or Warrior Monk.".

Krush, Kill N Destroy: This is just sort of my own personal favorite from the era when RTS games ruled the PC market. KKND was basically Command and Conquer meets Mad Max meets Fallout. Very funny and creative little game, but it's graphics and controls are horrendously dated now. Would love to see it return.

The 'Myth' series: Please, oh please, someone re-release these games with a new engine. Easily some of the best games ever made, and bar none the best execution of "dark fantasy" that I've ever seen.

It apparently does according to this Amazon page, it's accessible from the main menu apparently. It requires an Origin redemption according to the product description though.

If Xbox, PS3 and Gamcube era games are old enough to be considered Classics, I hope we get a X-men Legends. As much as people hate Activision for milking a good franchise to Death they only made two X-men Legends games. Granted Marvel Ultimate Alliance is the spiritual successor but they only made two of those.

I think only pre-orders got it. It's pretty bizarre as the Steam version can be tweaked so the play option for the original appears on the main menu (you can also enable ALL the DLC costumes with a single INI tweak) but the original game files aren't there. No clue why they haven't released it outside of that.

Other then "It's EA"?

Ah yes, forgot they were publisher. That explains a bit.

One EA game I would like to see re-released is Future Cop - LAPD. An old top down shooter where you controlled a transforming mech in future LA. It was pretty fun and had a great extra mode called sky commander or something. I have the disk somewhere but would be great to have a digital re-release.

 

[rgrekejin]

My itself at the top of my list is Donkey Kong 64. That game was incredible, and needs to be re-released.

I'd also like to see a digital re-release/tweaking so that they work on 64-bit systems of the old Mechwarrior games. Man, Mechwarrior 4 was just fantastic.

It comes with the full game of Madness Returns. Not sure about Steam, but I bought it on the xbox store and you get both the games in one. As all digital games purchases are counted as brand new, you shouldn't require pre-order codes.

OT. Other than the aforementioned Rareware collection, Call of Cthulu Dark Corners of the Earth; Never played. Really want to!
Oh and Project Zero. Alll the damn zeros, please. With a refined save system perhaps? Please? Can they hear me?

 

[go-10]

don't know if they can be considered classics but:

Wild Arms 5
Dragon Quest VIII
Brave Fencer Musashi
Skies of Arcadia Legends
Valkyria Chronicles 2 and 3

 

[thoughtwrangler]

Nintendo eShop - preferably on the 3DS, but that probably won't happen because "something something SNES something something 3DS something WiiU exclusive."
The Illusion of Gaia,
Terranigma,
RoboTrek,
Mother
(Also, being able to play Earthbound on my 3DS would easily be worth $20 to me. Hey there Nintendo, how ya doin?)


Edit: Wait... Mario Kart Super Circuit is aready on the VC.. how did I miss that? Why have not gotten it yet??

- Star Wars: Rogue Squadron

Did you know that Rogue Squadron is on GOG for 6 dollars? The first one, but still

 

[DarklordKyo]

Call of Cthulu Dark Corners of the Earth; Never played. Really want to!

Hope you have at least a semi-decent gaming PC then:

It's recommended you play it using a patch that removes some of the more insane requirements for the best ending (like having to speedrun it while still getting 100% completion). It, and other fixes, can be found on the PCgamingWiki page: http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Call_of_Cthulhu:_Dark_Corners_of_the_Earth

Ohh yeah, I forgot about Musashi, gotta edit that into the OP.

 

[TrevHead]

All of Nintendo's 64 classics
All of SEGA's Saturn,DC and Xbox classics

I'm not asking for much
Throw in FROM's XBOX games too.

 

[HankyPanky]

I wish they'd port Diablo 1 to mobile devices or release it in GoG. It's my favorite of the bunch.

 

[Shoggoth2588]

There isn't a specific game I can think of off of the top of my head mainly because for all I know, the PSN store already HAS Bahamut's Lagoon and Blood of Bahamut but no, I'm here to complain about something else:

The Nintendo Virtual Console. I see the NVC as being three separate entities and this is my problem with it. I understand that the original 3DS and 3DSXL models may be unable to handle all of the games on offer on the Wii's VC but with the boost that the N3DS apparently got, I would hope that SNES games at the very lease should work on the new hardware. That's just a little niggle though when compared to the Wii VC vs the Wii U VC. The Wii's VC has dozens-upon-dozens of games across nearly a dozen platforms. The Wii U's VC has a couple dozen games across three platforms, 1 more if you count the 3 Wii games which have been put onto the Wii U's eShop. For as long as the Wii U has been out, I would have hoped the VCs would have been merged by now. Yes, I CAN toggle over to Wii mode to play those games but that's just an extra step standing between me and the possibility of my playing Super Mario RPG. There's also the issue of the old Wii point cards which should have been put to pasture by now in favor of the actual currency being used on the Wii U side.

 

[The Rogue Wolf]

Three words.

Rare N64 Collection.

An updated Blast Corps, with proper destruction physics and high-quality graphics, would quite possibly make me giddy. Even if they left in that lousy dump truck.
