I was so pumped for that game when it was in production.
Too true, friend. Such is my answer and feeling.

Legend (Four Crystals of Trazere) and its sequel Worlds of Legend: Sons of the Empire released back in the glory days of the Amiga.

Many modern games (notably RPG and dungeon crawler types) owe their heritage to these insanely advanced games.

Blizzard fans sit expectantly waiting for Diablo III to fall, but I sit hoping that the true father is woken up by EA and shows you all what a true dungeon crawler could be.

Doesn't make sense why they don't - although when Diablo does drop and makes a load of money, I expect EA to make a move. Seems to be the pattern that no one makes a move until Activision does.

Just to be clear: I dont mean the whole Xcom fiasco, I mean what game that you cant get off the shelves unless its a lucky pre-owned game would you like to see brought back, maybe with a little graphical and audio updating, but with all of the gameplay, story, mechanics and themes left intact?

Mine would be dungeon keeper, I had fun on my old computer luring hero's into some heavily trapped hallway and then dropping a LV.10 bile demon on their heads for good measure and the voiceovers for the "Improvements" on areas were so darkly humored it was great; "There is nothing left here but a very persistent stain on the ground which your troll's are attempting to remove before we spray acid across it" lol

I tried to download it to my laptop recently and due to an accidental disconection during download only the before and after voiceovers got through along with some unusable on their own files.

So what are yours? Add as few or as many as you like :)
I would love Dungeon Keeper to come back.... I want to play it now that you mentioned it, I have got the gold edition somewhere.

There aren't many other games that I can think of so I will just go for rarer games that aren't necessarily hard to find but I want with updated graphics;

- Ridge Racer Type 4: Probably the shortest racing game ever but had so much replay-ability and a kick ass soundtrack

- Medieval: I loved the theme of this game, would love to see it with updated gameplay

- Croc: Such a fun adventure game...

Does no one remember the awesomeness of Eternal Darkness anymore? :(

Honestly, though, I'm kind of on the fence about whether I want it or not, since most modern sequels to classics (Starfox series, Other M, Final Fantasy) have been colossal amalgamations of misery and suck.

I guess the question is: Would you really trust the canon of your favorites to today's gaming industry?

well, this. but as for me i can think of a couple. i would like to see a graphical update of KOTOR, as well as star wars, galactic battlegrounds, but with some fiddling with the factions so that they dont all use the EXACT SAME UNITS. i just remember having fun with that game.

also, the original starcraft. the game looks absolutely horrid, but it had a good story and good gameplay. probably because this was before kotik got his grubby hands on it. (i dont care if he has nothing to do with it, ITS ALWAYS HIS FAULT)

finally, the original deus ex, and thief. im kinda particular about graphics unless i have nostalgia for the old games, but i heard these had some bitchin' gameplay and stories and such. would love to enjoy them

You mean just re-vamp the whole graphics?

Definitely Naval Ops: Warship Gunner. One of my favorite games for PS2, but the graphics kinda suck. It would look so much more impressive with modern day graphics.

Haegemonia: Legions of Iron, superb space based RTS, it is in the "sold out" range, but I would love to see a revamp or a actual sequel.

I'd also like a Dynasty Tactics 3, or a Dynasty Tactics 2 that I can play on my PS3, I love that game
Luckily I still have a working copy of Haegemonia, awesome game.

The new Wing Commander "Trilogy" that was cancelled after it's first part Prophecy. That games were so great.
Oh and Privateer, of course Privateer.
The Wing Commander Series was a staple of my PC gaming life up until they stopped being produced. Of all the games I have played I miss Wing Commander the most.

Broken Sword. THQ messed up Angel of Death with the whole not-being-compatible-with-modern-processors issue but I don't think that should be the end of a legendary franchise.

Whoever gives the world Timesplitters 4 will instantly become my favourite developer ever and I will send them lots and lots of cakes.
Didn't the former devs of Timesplitters get bought out by Cyrtek? I remember they were working on Crysis 2's multiplayer and Crytek was thinking about letting them go ahead and make TS4 if Crysis 2 sold enough or something to that affect
but other than TS4 I kind think of two other series
Star Wars battle front 3
Metal Arms: Glitch in the system, it was made by the guys who were going to make starcraft ghost, btw.
