Games that have long since passed their prime have simply dropped off the radar in recent years.
who here wishes to see a game that they loved be remade utilizing today's technology?

I believe that a remake of the classic Doom is in order.

What game do you want a remake of?

The Soul Reaver games. How I would love to see Nosgoth and its inhabitants in modern-day graphics... *sigh*

Gunstar Heroes.

The Lost Vikings. (perfect with gamings new focus on co-op! and Blizzard certainly has the money to do it now!)

I've said it once and I'll say it again. Devs just spend less time remaking games and more times making new games.

We need a remake of Banjo-Kazooie.

But we need it to appeal to the 15-18 year old demographic so an M-rated, gritty reboot is in order. I know, let's set it in a greyish-brown dystopic city with lots of violence and drugs rampant throughout. To make this more realistic, let's make Banjo an ex-cop with a drug problem who shoots first (get it?) and only asks questions after all the bad guys are dead. Kazooie should be a wise-cracking girl selling her body to take care of her young daughter and make ends meet but that doesn't dampen her positive outlook on life. Gruntilda is the head of a corrupt private security corporation that is cleaning up the streets in a monstrous manner.

When a drug deal falls apart leaving Bottles dead and Kazooie's daughter kidnapped (why? I dunno, throw together some mumbo-jumbo... hey, he can be the kidnapper! Booya!), Banjo and Kazooie team up to save her and find out who's behind it. The trailer can hint that Gruntilda and her Jinjo minions are behind the whole thing!

Cut and paste the plot twists from other games, throw together some last minute script changes by a struggling author, hire some actors last-minute and advertise the shit out of it and BINGO! 300,000 copies sold in the first week with massive profits to follow.

Coming this Christmas, Banjo-Kazooie: Extermination
This time, it'll take more than nuts and bolts to solve their problems...
[small]Rated M for Mature for graphic violence, sexual content, profanity, blood, and ninja action.[/small]

This man speaks great sense on both counts.

OT: Lego Racers. It was close to being fantastic but it fell just short. If High Voltage Software have any dignity and budget left over from The Conduit, they should remake Lego Racers and this time do it properly.

I can dream.

Also many people have talked about remaking Timesplitters 2 in HD in the past. I agree with these people.

I'm glad that "Gunstar Heroes." speaks enough that I don't need to say anymore.

I can haz cooky? Yay! nom nom nom...

I edited my post to include the trailer if you want to see it. By the way, this is the kind of crap that goes through my mind when I'm high on A&W root beer and haven't slept in 30 hours.

Metal Gear Solid 1, Morrowind, System Shock 2... take your pick
Morrowind with the actual upgrades that got added in Oblivion would be nice... still...

System Shock and SS2 are also good picks.

Deus Ex, now that 3 is just around the corner.

Another remake thread, and another chance to shout to the heavens that it is necessary that Bioware begin working on a reboot of the Ultima series immediately, and to let them know that I am furious that they are not already well underway.

This delay is inexcusable, Bioware.

I agree that what we need is NEW games... but:

Descent: Freespace (2)
TIE Fighter
MechWarrior 2
