I think chess is ready for an upgrade.

Alpha Centauri, as a true 4X game, not some of the RTS or modern Age of Wonders knockoffs. 

M.U.L.E. because I always say that.
A cool strategic wargame like SSI or Microprose did back in the day.

Pool of Radiance and the Gold Box games, again without the hard drive erasing like the last Pool of Radiance remake did.
PDH!

Total Annihilation, the best RTS ever should be re-made with a better AI. Later attempts at the same kind of game on the same scale were too complex and not very fun.

How ridiculous. On the other hand, if they were expecting Chess they could have just gotten a chess set.


They should remake Knights of the Old republic II. This time with a coherent story line. 
PDH!

Have you tried Ashes of the Singularity?  If so, what did you think of it?
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

If Microsoft Excel decided to stop working overnight, the world would practically end.

It's very coherent.  With the restored content mod, at least. :)

I guess they'll see how #1 goes first. :)

I've played Darklands in the modern era. :unsure:

It's on Steam, but it's still looks like it did in 1992 (though I think I played it in 1995)

Ridiculously good with staggering breadth, it is without a doubt one of the greatest RPGs ever made

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

One just came to me.
Queen the eye.
A game built long ago themed around Queen, the band.
Apparently it was bad and of course wouldn't hold up today.
Still I want to play.
