Tribes Aerial Assault, that could work out a lot of the bugs it had and better graphics would make it more amusing to look at,

Doom.
The source port makers have done a remarkable job, all things being considered, but i'd like something on the level of Doom 3 but without the pathetic attempts at being scary. I just want pure genocidal fun with all of Hell's minions in glorious modern technology. I have many games that attempt to fill this niche, but I always feel a little empty inside when I don't get to shoot at giant flying tomatoes, disembodied flaming skulls and pyromaniac monkeys.

Shaq-Fu? We have plenty of crap games as it is. We don't need a revival of one of the worst fighting games of all time.

Syndicate Wars!
X-COM! (Not the crappy "Aftermath" games which were suppose to be the "spiritual" successor)

Both were tactical squad based games from quiet a ways back. For those of you who don't know of them I guess the closest new game would be Dawn of War 2 the Single Player Campaign, what you setup going into battle was all you had. Cause if you have played DoW2 you know MP is NOTHING like SP. Oh an unlike DoW2 when your guys died they were DEAD! No revive during or after missions you had to get new guys. So "leveling" actually meant something. It meant you were good enough to keep them alive for a LONG time.

Though on a plus side it seems people are making some what of a return to the more tactical based combat in RTS. Though I really hate how they pretend it's a NEW idea to have the smaller tactical combat with less focus on Resources. I can think of over half a dozen games of the top of my head from a decade ago that were like that and were pretty popular.

there's only thing that i want. a remake of final fantasy 3 (VI) with today's graphics.
But they did remake it, for the DS. And it's super cute.

EDIT - heh, whoops, my bad. I saw the "3" and ignored the parentheses. And agreed, a remade FF6 would be awesome. I don't think they will, since the Advance port came out right around the time the DS came out. Which sucks; I'd love to actually play FF6 since I've heard so much about it.

Seriously? You'd buy a new version of both those games? But they're so new, and it wouldn't be a giant step just a rehash. You need to play more games.

I'd like a lot of side scrollers remade with the look of Braid. Also give Square another go with Mario RPG.

Man, Braid was so good, now that WAS innovation.

I agree, Mario RPG needs another looking into.

to be honest it depends how far back we go, the old 2d games don't really work in 3d as sonic continues to show us!
That's not because it doesn't work in 2d, that's because the developers are idiots.

Syndicate would be awesome. Online multiplayer would be a fantastic addition as well.
