    They’ve wanted to do this for a while and some big publisher I think it was Warner Bros or Activision literally said “No, because we might have some legal claim to the IP, but we aren’t going to check, if you do anything with it we will sue you.”

    Honestly, No One Lives Forever was a great game that would only be muddied if brought back.

    Also, this article is wrong. You can still play both NOLF and NOLF2 on PC. There are fan patches that get them working on modern operating systems and fix up some bugs, while adding support for widescreen and HD resolutions.

      Deus Ex is screaming for a remake. There is so much excellence there, but imagine it with modern high quality graphics and VAs, modernized implementations of the systems already in place… Maybe even actually implementing the UNATCO route that was scrapped due to time?

      Deus Ex is a game that would be ruined with a remake. A less rushed ending isn’t worth everything else getting changed.

    I’d take a goddamn Bubsy 3D remake from them if it’d be of the same quality as System Shock.
