Games you would like to see resurrected

[Mellomi]

Does no one remember the awesomeness of Eternal Darkness anymore?

This. I love that game to bits, but it's cutscenes could use a lot of work. There would be a tense/awesome moment and BAM! something unrelated, and it didn't mesh at all. More of the more subtle insanity effects would be awesome, too. Having the characters' animations match if they were saying something (like "this. Isn't. Really happening!") would be so sweet. Not entirely taking control from the player but having them stagger around a bit.

STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT 2 & REPUBLIC COMMANDO!!

They sooooo need sequels with more of those awesome features in both single and multi-player

 

[Your Fearless Captain]

Spyro the Dragon and Crash Bandicoot, before Activision ruined them.

Rayman, when and if Origins ever comes out.

I completely agree with that statement about Spyro. I would love a proper Megaman Legends 3.

 

[Psycho Cat Industries]

I'm afraid I whip this dead horse a little too much (I think I'm at about a 1:1 ratio with Yahtzee and Silent Hill 2), but my favorite game of all time is the oft maligned and misunderstood Chrono Cross. Given a graphical overhaul (only for the characters though, the hand drawn scenery was gorgeous), and maaaybe voiceovers (nearly every character in the game had a distinct accent), I think it'd fit in well.

It probably wouldn't sell well over here (way too colorful and blood-free for today's average gamer), but it would do a killing in Japan.

Edit: On second thought, I wouldn't resurrect a specific game, but I'd like to see forgotten gameplay elements make a comeback. I grew up loving turn based RPGs, but there are almost none being made today. Come on writers!! Work out a good story, dream up some believable characters and give me a good 'ol Final Fantasy 7-9 kind of experience again!

You sir,have won the historical rpg award.Try Dragon Quest.It is as unoriginal and cheesy as they get,but it is still turn based.
OP:I would bring back twisted metal,but that being done.

Eh, I enjoy the DQ games to an extent, but like you said, they're pretty damn unoriginal. I said a good story and believable characters. Every DQ game (at least the ones I've played) are basically the same. Granted, there's only so much originality that can be had in this day and age, but something along the lines of the canon Tales or Final Fantasy games; pretty alike, but the characters and the circumstances of why they have to save the world are different.

Well,that is really the best we got at the moment other then maybe,Pokemon or something like that.

 

[Lazarus Long]

Master of Magic/Orion. I also recently played the GBA Shining Force remake, and was sorely disappointed that SF2 did not receive the same treatment.

 

[iNsAnEHAV0C]

Tie Fighter. Modernize the graphics and update the iMUSE music system. Leave everything else intact.

I guarantee it would be a best seller.

This

Also Advent Rising. and make the proper sequels. that game was awesome but never got the love.
