I know that remakes and remasters are contentious, but let’s pretend whatever game in question you’re thinking of is handled with the utmost care by your favourite devs and they absolutely nail it.

Mine would be Shadow of Memories (called Shadow of Destiny in North America). It’s legitimately one of my favourite games of all time but it kinda flew under the radar and I haven’t met many people who know of it let alone played it. Seeing it get modern graphics, maybe some expanded mechanics, would be soooo cool.

    Alister McGee’s Alice. Pretty much a horror version of Alice in Wonderland, and it’s a platformer with trippy graphics. I thought it was pretty fun.

    I’d like to see a return of the old racing games with hundreds of cars and performance customization

    I haven’t seen a game like juiced in quite some time with money on the line for each race

    I would love to see F.E.A.R. with updated graphics. Preferably just a remaster, but if it was remade in the same spirit as the Dead Space remake was, I’d be down for that too, especially if they brought back Fettel’s voice actor.

    I want a remake of the original Harry Potter 1 and 2 games from the PS1. Not asking much, anything that looks nicer than this would do

    Ultima 7 I guess. I never got into it but I keep hearing his great it was. Final Fantasy VI, because it was my first and therefore the best. Space Crusade because it was just that fun.

    I’d love to see Chrono Trigger get the 2D-3D octopath-style remake that a few old SNES games have gotten.

    Vib-Ribbon.

    It’s one of the coolest concepts I’ve seen for PSx. It’s a rhythm game that loads into the console’s ram, allowing you to swap the disc to one of your CDs and could generate unique levels for your songs.

    While looking it up I did find there was a PS3 port, but I don’t know how good that is or if it has the same custom level feature or not. I’d love a modern version that looks visually similar but allows you to either input a playlist from a service like yt or use your own local files to generate unique levels.

    I’d love to see Ocarina of Time and Majoras Mask get a full remade release, bundled together into one game ideally. Sure we got the 3ds remakes but I wanna see it back on home consoles, like tp and ww HD.

      There is a GitHub project working on a recompilation of both of these for PC. They’ve got Majora’s Mask working and are working on OoT. Looks beautiful, runs buttery smooth, and has custom controls with a free camera.

    Right now, I’d really like the Gex games. Underrated 2D platformer, and a pair of goofy early 3D collectathons!

    Hopefully the remake of the trilogy is still in production. I’ve got it on my wishlist from Limited Run Games, lol
