What game series would you bring back from the dead?

[Bernzz]

I say this every time.

Impossible Creatures, damn it! One of the most fun RTS games I've ever played. Sure, the game mechanics themselves were simple, and it was more of an RTT than an RTS (it was no Supreme Commander) but goddamn it, I loved it for one reason.

Your army had 9 units. Your army was YOUR ARMY. You could customise every unit. Combine two animals and choose the specific body parts. Nothing like seeing a gigantic hornet with the head of a shark swoop down and sting an opponent, whilst biting them.

Now imagine that creative ability, but with 50 different animals.

Damn it Relic, as much as I love Dawn of War, bring back Impossible Creatures!

This must be the billionth time I've said it; Jade Empire!
If I had a dollar for every time I've replied to a thread about games getting sequels with that answer I would actually be able to fund it by now.

Mother. 3 games wasn't enough.
Chrono. 2 games wasn't enough.
Keio Flying Squadron. Forgotten, unloved fun.
Magical Pop'n. Forgotten, unloved fun.
Lemmings. Half a million games isn't enough. Also, Steam. Now.
Star Tropics. 2 games isn't enough. Nintendo needs it again.
Fortune Summoners. NEED. MORE. NOW.
Super Mario RPG
Megaman Legends (3)
Drill Dozer
Jet Force Gemini. Make sure a female is playable in it, too.
Jade Empire. With please, hire an Asian company for the CG, this time.
Disney's Magic Quest
Shenmue
Secret of Mana/Seiken Densetsu
Jumping Flash!
Bubsy
Twinkle Star Sprites. With a lot more challenging difficulty.
Klonoa
Marl Kingdom
Maui Mallard
Thread of Fate
Tomba!

Shadowrun. I say it every time in threads like this. And I also must always add that the FPS that came out five or so years ago does count. At all.

 

[ExileNZ]

Legacy of Kain.

No contest.

 

[Dante DiVongola]

I want my Road Rash series back. That games was on so many levels of mindless kickass. \m/

 

[TheAftereffect]

If it could only be one: "Lego Racers"

Otherwise: "Lego Racers" and "Brutal Legend"

 

[Savryc]

Phantom Crash. I bloody loved that game and while there was a PS2 only sequel I never got to play since I owned an xbox.

Also Aggressive Inline.

 

[ResonanceGames]

Jedi Knight and the X-Wing/Tie Fighter games. I wouldn't mind seeing some more Wing Commander, too. Also, Ultima.

 

[Morthello]

Jet grind/set radio

Freespace

 

[Rheinmetall]

I would fund the sequel to Final Fantasy X. I would love to see again a Final Fantasy game after 11 whole years!

 

[Manji187]

Legacy of Kain.

No contest.

Hell yeah! LOK: Defiance was NOT a proper way to end the franchise. So much untapped potential left.

OP: I'd resurrect Syphon Filter on consoles.

 

[Mr_spamamam]

I'd get them to make another Jaws Unleashed. I loved that game. Or Redneck Rampage, so much time spent, so many memories

Jazz Jackrabbit. it basically combined Metroid, Sonic, and a pinch of contra to make the most awesome game ever. The game has (or had) a complete (sort of) third game made in 3-d but no one wanted to distribute it. I LOVED the Jazz Jackrabbit series. It was awesome.

OH Or ROLLCAGE. I (censored) LOVED ROLLCAGE one of my favorite racing games of all time. a modern equlivent would me BLUR with the difference that ROLLCAGE DOES NOT SUCK oh and about 15 weapons + upgraded weapon effects. all the modes are good (only like blur in that it has weapons really)

 

[Sun Flash]

Jet Set/Grind Radio. The sound track alone would be worth it.

Also, if I had a PS3, MediEvil. Loved that game.

 

[WorriedSandwich]

BLUR!

It was an ungodly amount of fun, but unfortunately it was released roughly at the same time as Split/Second and either Mario Kart Wii or Modnation Racers (can't remember which). Because of this, it didn't sell all that well, and developer Bizarre Creations went bankrupt.

 

[Coldster]

X-wing games.

Hell, the space combat simulator genre for all I care, and not the arcade ones like Rogue Squadron, I mean the ones where you sit in a cockpit and manage your fighter's power distribution while shooting down torpedoes aiming for your exhaust pipe and chasing down tie fighters, interceptors, and bombers going for your capital ship which is also engaged with the enemy capital ship which is 50% more powerful and bigger than your capital ship.

This. This is exactly what I would want to see. As a Star Wars fan and a X-Wing: Rogue Squadron fan, a revival of this series would make me extremely happy.
