Games that you think deserve an update

I'd say R-Type, but we just got that update. Yay!!

So I guess I'd have to go w/ Astrosmash or BurgerTime.

I must say that I'm surprised that no-one's mentioned Quake (the first one).

I mean yes, the original game wasn't absolutely brilliant, but with a little imagination the universe it created could be filled out to be something absolutely awesome.

I mean, look at the potential you've got here - a large human military force fighting demons, a main character who ends up wandering countless dead worlds who turns into something not quite human, an axe, zombies, and the phrase 'The Slipgate War' (come on, tell me that isn't a cool sounding name). Oh, and level names such as 'The Nameless City' and 'Province of the Abyss.'

Or maybe I'm just crazy.

Also, I would love to see an update of X-Com Apocalypse. I'm not sure if many people have played that game, but it's awesome. All of the terrain is fully destructible (in its own rather blockish way), it allows you to have agents duel wielding chainguns loaded with incendiary ammunition (causing untold damage), and you have an entire cityscape made up of various corporations with their own inter-relations. The game was brilliant and it had even more potential.

And Quake 2. And no-one's allowed to say "Oh, but that was kind of done in Quake 4," because Quake 4 was crap. I prefer Quake 2 in every single way (including graphics!! (Okay, admittedly Quake 2 suffered from never being able to fight alongside friends - that was probably the biggest downside - but all older games suffered from that affliction)).

And by update I assume you don't just mean new visuals Identical gameplay?
How about Conker's Bad Fur Day or Perfect Dark.

Rare already did Cokner, censored from its original version though it was. And yes, an update to a game usually means bringing the graphics up to speed with current technology.

Personally I'd like to see a current gen re-make of FF8 & 9. Seems a bit fanboyish I know, but those were two game that I grew up with and loved, so a chance to play them again with better graphics would make my day

I'd settle for just FF8!

Wait a minute did you just say FF8, what seriously... That game's garbage.

Also I don't think that any game should be remade. The developers could instead do something useful, like make a fun and original title.

Justify your statement of FF8... I'm sincerely curious. And yeah, I'm biased as hell, that was my first PS game (I bought my PS REALLY late, so yeah). Absolutely love the game, and the junction thing was awesome and it provided a deeper mechanic than just leveling like crazy. In fact, if you go to gamefaqs.com you can see people used the junction system to get through the entire game as lvl 1's.

Beating the game as lvl 1? That's quite an achievement considering every character starts off at atleast lvl 7.

I mean beating the whole game without lvling up...
