Games you would like to see the remake of.

[Caliga]

Microsoft has acknowledged this shortcoming and supposedly their new flightsim, Microsoft Flight, will cater to casual gamers as well as hardcore flightsimmers.  We'll see if that really works, though.

[Threviel]

Detroit is ripe for a remake on the iPhone ore somesuch.

[Josquius]

Freespace 1 & 2
Planescape: Torment
SM's alpha Centauri
Day of the Tentacle, and some of the old Infocom gems; and Gabriel Knight 1
Raid Over Moscow
SimEarth
I'd kill a random Languishite for a new iteration of SimCity
Anachronox was a hidden gem that I never finished because of a bug that crashed my game, I'd love to see a remake of it

L.

Doesn't Day of the Tentacle still look good these days?
I played it for the first time just...5 or so years ago and it was great.

I'd like to see a straight HD port of...

This.  When the remake a game, they usually manage to screw it up.  I'd rather that they'd just port old games so that you could run them on modern systems without so much trouble.

[DontSayBanana]

I think one problem with flight sims is the over-complication.  Realism is good for hardcore fans, but not good for casual gamers, or hardcore fans who didn't discover yet that they're hardcore fans.  Remember when joysticks had two buttons, and nothing else?

Yeah; remember how many keyboard controls you had to have mapped in addition?

Even TIE Fighter had a lot of keyboard input (granted, most of it was maintenance stuff that made sense being broken away from the keyboard); the only time I was ever able to get X-Wing Alliance running with a single controller was the time that I hooked up a Steel Battalion controller to my computer with an XBox-USB adapter.

[MadImmortalMan]

Lots of good ones. I had forgotten Krondor.


I will add: Star Control 2

[Darth Wagtaros]

I remember Raid Over Moscow.  Funtimes. I almost through that out there. 

[Caliga]

Just checked wiki, I remember this game now too.  I remember it being both OSSUM and hard.

[DGuller]

Wolf 3D would be an amusing remake.

[Caliga]

Another visitor!  Stay awhile!  StaaaaAAAAAY FOREVER!!!

[Tonitrus]

I want a remake of Ultima.   

Fun games.  Ultima 7 was the highpoint for me.

V for me.

[Neil]

Lots of good ones. I had forgotten Krondor.


I will add: Star Control 2

They'd ruin it if they tried to remake it.

[jimmy olsen]

Day of the Tentacle

[Josquius]

Lots of good ones. I had forgotten Krondor.


I will add: Star Control 2

Remake no, Ur Quan masters is fine.
A proper, good, sequel though? Hell yes.

[derspiess]

Crusade in Europe
NATO Commander

I second these two, and would add Decision in the Desert and Conflict in Vietnam.  And hell, pretty much everything else from Microprose, including Gunship, Project Stealth Fighter, F-15 Strike Eagle, M-1 Tank Platoon, and Airborne Ranger.

Pretty much all SSI strategy games from the 80s.

Also Close Combat 2 & 3.
