considering BMS is still alive....

I think somebody WAS making a updated re-make but got into licensing issues.
btw is it okay to ask for a dynamic sound track? Some Things Never Change is cool and all but having it on repeat during the game is a bit annoying.

I can't remember what is was called, but it was this JRPG for the PS1 that completely reinvented the genre and made it commercially successful. People like it a little less these days, but for most people it still holds up. For the life of me, can't remember the name, but I think it would really do good with a graphics update, even by PS1 standards for graphics it hasn't aged well.

Seriously though.

Xenosaga needs it because, if nothing else, those games are not cheap, and they're not particularly easy to find either.

There are still a few fighting games that would do well with an upscale to HD graphics and online play: the Street Fighter Alpha series, particularly the second one, Capcom Vs. SNK 2, and Vampire Savior.

I would also pay $60 for a simple port of Terranigma with the graphics drawn over like for Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix.

The Legacy of Kain series would also be great.
Really? I found all 3 Xenosaga games within a month of each other at my local GameStop, for around $20 or less, each. Tell you what, though, I haven't touched 2 and 3 yet, since 1 has such a godawful combat system. I don't even think I'm halfway through it....

Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen



Seeing everything from the original in today's visuals would be amazing.

Morrowind would definitely be my first choice, Battlefield 1942 a VERY close second. I'd also love to see Heroes of Might and Magic 3 and GTA San Andreas.

Seconded. I bloody loved that game. All the great features of an AoE game, but with the addition of laser-wielding crocodiles.
They already had them remember the Egyptian crocodiles who fires sun rays?

As well as today's sound technology. Especially today's sound technology.

Absolutely bloody nothing. Every time I see one of these threads that basically amount to people creaming their pants over HD, I am suddenly filled with the desire to put my head through a wall.

um...the game that allows you to turn into different creatures when you get enough power-up, like werewolves,tigers and dragons(forgot it's name). the gex the gecko series, the tomba series, the croc series, the old 2d earthworm jim, boogerman, naboo star fighter, GTA:SA, Suikoden IV, syphon filter 1 and 2, clayfighter 63 1/2, the ORIGINAL conker's bad fur day( since they took out all of the different mutiplayer tpes in the remake for the original xbox), the world is not enough....there's more but i seem to be having problems dragging them to the forefront of my brain...

The old Harry Potter games.

Don't look at me that way. The old HP games were the bomb.
I actually thoroughly enjoyed the Chamber of Secrets one. That was one AMAZING game for being a book/movie video game.

Definitely Age of Mythology. Best RTS ever made. EVER. It had balancing issues in the expansion (lolrushtitan), but it was the best RTS ever. Starcraft ain't got shit on AoM.

I'd like to see the original Deus Ex remade to be like HR (visually, but same story / levels)
I tried playing it after HR, but even with the fan-made updates it just felt kinda clunky in comparison.

However if it's only an HD upgrade, where nothing else gameplay-wise changes,
then perhaps something like C&C or Red Alert,
as they're still very playable today, but they just look dated.

Rock N'Roll Racing! It's an old Genesis and SNES game from the guys at Blizzard back when they were still called Silicon & Synapse. Awesome announcer, great soundtrack, cool characters, vehicles, weapons, you name it! This game was a blast.
(I saw some guys are working on a fan update, but I'm not sure if it'll ever release or how it will be.)

Honestly none, for the same reason I refuse to buy Blu-rays of older films. Part of the experience of watching something from the past is the quality of imagery, you lose that and you lose some of the magic.

Homeworld. It would be so amazing in HD. And it would be easier to do than most games since, at any given time, there's only the skybox and relatively few 3D models on screen. Just remake the models and the effects (Especially the trail left behind by fighters, which has not aged very well at all.) and you're good. The skyboxes just need a bit of touching up so they're a little less pixelated.
