    Have it. It's okay, but doesn't have the atmosphere of Elite or Privateer.

    Imagine system shock 2 with direct X 10 or even DX11 graphics and effects and ultra high resolutions.

    Add to that 5.1 surround sound with higher quality audio and you got a match made in heaven.

    Re: Old games that would be awesome remade

    Cholo Awesume ovine remake here
    Beat my score at that one I completed it in under 15 minutes game time.

    Infact check out the whole of Ovine for others which include XOR and Imogen
    Zarch/Virus remake here
    Over there is a privateer remake little slugworths.
    Ultima in the World, some remakes being tried for that one too.

    I find virtual PC windows 95 in it works very well for old dos based games, the problem retro gaming I find is I the game is not as good as my memories as graphics has improved and my mind as up rated it to current levels so its sad to see how basic it was.

    It would be a lot of work but it would be nice to see a modern remake of the orginal System Shock as well.

    Perhaps not that old, but Skies of Arcadia was a fab RPG on the Dreamcast. Would love to see more of that.

    Dungeon Master, Star Trek Judgement Rites, and Manic Miner spring to mind too.

    Read up, I linked that Starbreeze through EA Classics is doing a Syndicate

    Speedball was remade for the PC and it was a dog and a half of a game.
