I was talking to my brother tonight and we were reminiscing about the great games Epic Megagames produced back when we were kids, especially One Must Fall: 2097. It's a fighting game that you play as the pilot of a many-story-tall robot. There were multiple pilots with different strengths, a verity of very distinct robots, arena hazards, and it all ran smoothly on our 486. What's not to love?

That got me thinking, how has that not been remade? With 'Pacific Rim' surely this is an idea whose time has come again. Or at least, I wish it was. (Apparently it was remade once already in the early 2000s, but that version wasn't any good.)

What are some other games that people would really like to see remade or updated? Lots of things just keep getting sequels even though they lack merit. What are some things that went away and shouldn't have?

Vigilante 8 and Vigilante 8: 2nd Offense, The World Is Not Enough (Either the N64 or PS1), Chamelon Twist, and Aerofighters Assault would be my choices.

I'm saying that Half-Life needs to be remade for real. Like a dedicated project, not just a fan made game that we haven't heard of anything for over a year now. I'd like to see a remake of Half-Life, Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Episode One and Half-Life 2: Episode two. As well as the expansion packs of Half-Life, and maybe more expansion packs for HL2. AND THEN HL3.

I kind of wish for an Arcanum rework - the final product is still pretty buggy, while it's an awesome cRPG.

I believe Betrayal at Krondor was very overlooked because of it's less than stellar graphics. But the story and soundtrack (the CD version) were some of the best I've ever experienced in gaming.

Improve the graphics (maybe just add a questlog or something, that game had A LOT of sidequests which a lot of people didnt know about), keep everything else exactly as it is. A prime candidate for a remake, if you ask me.

Bully: Scholarship Edition. - The game had so much to offer. Campus full of interesting characters, each with their own distinctive personalities, and a city to explore. The possibilities are endless, the remake could be huge. More missions, more school classes, more mischief, more relationship drama, more focus on other characters, and more everything! It would be amazing, specially if the original voice cast would reprise their roles. Basically I want the same game but bigger, more in depth, longer, and with better graphics.

Manhunt 2. - I guess first they'd need to remake the first one, but I'm only interested in the sequel being remade because it was (and still is) great.

ObsCure & ObsCure 2. With better graphics, maybe sort of Until Dawn vibe going on and it would be cool.

Raw Danger! This game is a treasure. Do it again, please.

Rule of Rose. C'mon, the story is good and rarely seen nowadays. We need more.

Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse. Hilarious and unlike others, there needs to be more.

Oh yeah played this so much back in the day, especially Timesplitters 2. Actually going to "play timesplitters" was also our code for getting together to go get stoned.

my thoughts that remakes are bads. because you destroy your precious memories, and at most just dissapoint yourself. as exception may be some old games with bugs and glitches. with reworked balance and remastering graphics without spoiling it's style. so it's may be some old rpg like planescape torments or similar oldschool good rpgs. with just reworked bugs and maybe just maybe little smoothing roughness of its graphics.

I actually agree with this. Right now, literally no remakes come to mind that I'd play over the original. They just dont have that same feeling when you play them.

and even original don't give those desired feelings you seek when replayed that games now...
