    Old games that would be awesome remade

    For me, number 1 would be Altered Beast.
    Awesome in its day, i think that it left strong memories not just with myself, but with many people, hence why i keep cropping up being repulished on emulators or whatever...
    But the original game really doesnt hold up all that well now, and looks ropey.

    A decent 3d FPS or similar however would be AWESOME. I used to really love Bionic Commando (also keeping me up late on my ST), which was remade 3d-wise, but apparently not that well.
    Any other games?

    I loved Carrier Command on the Amiga in my youth. There was a game similiar to it a few years on called Hostile Waters, but wasn't quite the same.

    I would love to see Road Rash remade.

    Once you have seen it you will never be the same
    Life in the fast lane is just how it seems
    Hard and it is heavy dirty and mean

    Carier command was fantastic - whiled away most of one school holiday playing it!

    For me I would love to see an update of Quazatron/paradroid - but keeping the simplicity and maybe adding multiplayer

    The old Lucasarts point-and-click adventures.

    Monkey Island 1 has already been remade, I'm hoping for more.

    Summoner on the PC, awesome game but as its directx7 looks very outdated now, would like Final Fantasy 8 remade with the 10 engine behind it

    There was a remake of this in 2003/2004 from memory on the PC and boy did they butcher it. It was free on Steam for a day or two a while back which I grabbed it, once in a game it's speedball, problem is the menu's lol yellow text on white backgrounds and red text on backgrounds with a lot of red made it hard to see what you were doing. I would avoid this remake.

    This is a game I would love to see a proper roots remake of it I am not sure why there hasn't been a remake of this as it still has a massive following.
