I will just pick one because it occurred to me today how great the game was and how it would be killer if it got a true next gen remix.

HYDROTHUNDER.

Please. PLEASE make it happen!!!!
 
Tribes 1, graphics update only. Dont touch the physics, flight models, stats etc, keep everything the fucking same.

This is why every Tribes has failed after Tribes 1.
 
I wouldn't mind seeing Chrono Cross, Trigger, and some other FF titles. I know there are some Steam versions and you can do emulators, but it would be neat to see actual remakes done.
 
System Shock 2

NO.....

because remix/remakes ALWAYS change the game and usually make them worse.

If it was a PURE graphic upgrade and nothing else, I'd be all for it but they'd change other crap and ruin the game.
 
Secret of Monkey Island...oh wait...they did that...

Well then Star Control.
 
I'll go with the one people have been requesting for years: Final Fantasy 7.

I'd also love to see some classic NES and SNES games like Faxanadu, Battle of Olympus, and Actraiser as well.
 
For me would like the following:

Final Fantasy 7,8,9
Twilight Princess
Deus Ex
Shenmue 1&2
Red Dead Remption
Metal Gear Solid 1-4
Fallout 1&2
Full Throttle

Walker, on the Amiga. I keep thinking how great it would be in 3D, but it seems to have been forgotten.
 
I would love to see a remake of mech assault from the original xbox. Loved that game so much

That'd be so nice. I don't even need updated graphics (there's been mods that have already done this), just a new Steam version to introduce the game to a new generation of players.

I'd like to see Panzer Dragoon Saga remade. Never played it, but heard it's the shining gem of the Sega Saturn's library.

Panzer Dragoon was good.

So was Legend of Dragoon on Playstation.
 
Oregon trail. First person, open world, small city builder built in.

Awesome.
 
I would like to see Chrono Cross and FF7-10 remade without changing the core game mechanics.

I would like to see Metal Gear Solid remade on the new Fox Engine with updated game mechanics.

Actually Kojima has said he would like to see MGS remade using the fox engine (also with an open world design). Apparently he's been unable to find an outside developer that wanted to take up the project, which is odd.

I thought I was the only one who thought Legend of Dragoon on Playstation was good. I still dig it out every once in a while and play it. It would be nice to see it get a remake with better graphics as long as they dont mess with the combat system.

They actually did a new one on Xbox 360 arcade. It is very well done and the best XBL Arcade game IMO. I was a huge fan of the original.

What they need to do now is a new Rush 2049 similar to the Dreamcast version where the cars had deployable wings. And include the stunt and battle modes along with the races.
 
I've been saying these for years, but here they are again anyways. Would love to see these all re-made with next gen visuals and audio, and all the clasic gameplay elements still intact.

Rune
BattleZone II: Combat Commander
Hexen
Blood
Deus Ex
Unreal
 
Deus Ex would be incredible with state of the art graphics. There's a long-awaited mod, Revision, that's supposed to breathe new life into DE, but no telling when/if it'll be ready.
 

Man, that game is so much stupid fun with friends. My cousins and I would play that for hours on end, with all of the weird, crazy maps and mods (Like the Mt. Everest map. I never made it to the top.) The ability to decapitate or dismember someone, then use their head/limbs to beat them in submission once they respawn = win.
 
Goldeneye
Wipeout
Need For Speed (Original)
Indian Jones and the Infernal Machine
 
Would love to see VTM:Bloodlines done with today's graphics and upgraded. (It looks good still, but at 4k and modernized it would be really nice imho)
Neuromancer for it's time was great and a modern version would rock.
The old Sim games would be crazy fun if even just graphically redone. (Simtower, Simant, Simearth, ect)
Would LOVE to see the Dungeon Keeper series either made with today's graphics, or at least a 3rd game in the series.
Not sure if any have heard of it, but i remember a game for the Amiga i think was called "The Mist" that i remembered playing a lot that i wouldn't mind seeing again.
The old cinemaware games would also be fun i think with a modern overhaul.
Or how about the Epyx Summer, winter, ect games? Simple games but wasted a lot of time on them. Would be good to see them redone. :D
