Pushing the limits of today's tech to make it better. Which game would you pick?

Metal Gear Solid 2 with MGS 4 gameplay and a bonus mode where you play as MGR:Raiden would be cool.

    Oh, the list...

    Final Fantasy VII (Maybe even VIII and IX too)
    Final Fantasy Tactics
    Star Trek: The Next Generation - "Final Unity"
    Like makepeace, I'd like to see what they could do with Star Wars: Droidworks with today's technology...
    Some of the old Sid Meier games like "Colonization" and "Master of Orion" (especially since they seem to come out with a new "Civilization" every few years...)
    Chakram: The Forever Man (Anyone else actually remember that one?)
    Any of the "Sam and Max" games...

    I wouldn't really know how to choose just one...

    ^Words that every player should keep in mind, especially whenever there's a problem with the game...

    Ooh! How about SimCopter, or a spiritual successor? Imagine piloting a helicopter around cities that you built yourself in another game, completing missions such as fighting fires, performing medevacs, and spotting criminals for the police.

    Spider-Man N64. Played the heck outta that as a kid; just update the graphics and the gameplay a little (maybe mix in the newer 'fluid' combat system since WoS) and that's it! You don't even need to change the storyline at all.

    Okay, maybe redo the voice acting a little...
    Old Wounds
    Trials of Blood and Fire
    Moving On Parts 1-3 - Part 4
    In Cold Blood

    How about some of the old "Strike" games? You know, "Desert Strike", "Jungle Strike", "Soviet Strike", "Nuclear Strike", etc...

    I remember loving that game, despite the fact that I never got past the second level.

    Quake II, everything the same gameplay wise, just modernize the engine and multiplayer capabilities to completely get rid of limitations, I make maps for it so that would be quite a dream come true.

    If that's not eligible, then SPY HUNTER.

    FIFA 1998. Only football game I ever played but it had a nice simplicity the new ones don't have. I don't even like football, but it made a change, shooting balls rather than various people, as most other PS1 games did.​​

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    "Star Trek: Borg". (Preferably with making the near-end segment on the Borg Cube understandable instead of completely confusing...)

    That also came immediately to my mind when I read the title. ;)
    It's gimmick of turning from an RTS into an FPS by assuming control of any unit was pretty cool.
  • dalolorndalolorn Member Posts: 3,655 Arc User
    Star Wars: Any of the X-Wing games, Jedi Knight, etc. (I'd have thrown in Battlefront 2 or Empire at War, but those are too new. :()

    Other: Uhhh... Space Empires 5 also doesn't qualify, which leaves me with... Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, I guess.

    The sad part is, there's a lot of pre-2010 games I'd love to see updated. :tongue: Though when I hear what EA is doing with Battlefront, I fear any 'update' would consist of removing 70% of the content, replacing the remaining 30%, and just making better graphics.
    Infinite possibilities have implications that could not be completely understood if you turned this entire universe into a giant supercomputer.p3OEBPD6HU3QI.jpg
