What game would you pick for a modern day remake?

If you could pick one game for a modern day remake which one would it be.

I would love to see Rainbow Six: Rogue Spear remade with todays graphics and physics. I've got a lot of great memories playing that game as a kid and I kind of wish Rainbow Six had never jumped the tracks into whatever it is nowadays.
Sure there are similar games like Ground Branch, Ready or Not, Zero Hour but the last game to really capture the OG Rainbow 6 vibes was Swat 4. None of the others really come close.

Not much of a surprise

System Shock 2, but not by any of the current top devs.

Big fan of System Shock 2.

Chrono Trigger probably

The original Red Faction. Keep it first person, ramp up the destructive elements.

 

[TKing]

Socom Navy Seals, go all out on the multi-player and clan set ups and keep everything else simple. Later versions of Socom tried too hard to chase other franchises, use Socom 1 and/or 2 as the blueprint.

 

[Satur9]

Nightmare Creatures or some thing like old MTV Music Generator

Still waiting on a new F-Zero too.

 

[KungFuFoo]

metroid prime.

 

[My Spot]

Dino Crisis
MGS
Silent Hill
Soul Reaver

Lots of early 3D games from the N64/PS1 era that have aged like dookie.

 

[TadDunbar]

Skyrim

Socom was so fun.

Time splitters 2
Freedom fighters
Red Faction
Battlefield bad company 2

KOTOR

All things considered, it mostly holds up. That combat system, however, does not. The graphics are officially outdated as well. Not too shabby for 6th gen, but still pretty rough looking today.

The classic Final Fantasy games. I know FFVII got one, but the type of remakes I want with these games are just one to one recreations of the originals, with nothing but the graphics being overhauled and adding in voice work. Everything else stays the same.

 

[Lycandroid]

Kotor
the old school Metal Gear 1 and 2
Castlevania...(maybe not a remake but we need a good modern adaptation that borrows from souls)
FF9

Dino Crisis is my number one. The premise is awesome but it’s bogged down by way too much cryptic bullshit and you can literally just run past every enemy in the game. Seeing a true survival horror game with dinosaurs made in the RE engine would be incredible.

Same answer as I gave in my thread about unknown/under-appreciated older games: Crusader: No Remorse and Dungeon Keeper

Dungeon Keeper is a funny one. I was a huge fan of it when it came out back in the day, and it recently got released on Steam so I bought it and had a blast. But I've also played DK2 as well as more modern clones like War for the Overworld and the Dungeons games and idk, they don't come close to the original for me. Like they lose a lot of that appeal the more polished they become. I guess maybe a new Dungeon Keeper game but in a low tech, retro style would be more appealing to me

As for my suggestion, I would love to see the classic space combat games like Freespace 2 or TIE Fighter or X-Wing remade. They had insanely fun space dogfighting, but also did an amazing job with their plots and creating immersion and investment with their writing. Freespace 2 in particular was one of the most engrossing and dramatic SP games I've ever played

For what it’s worth, rather than a full blown remake I would actually prefer to see Crusader and Dungeon Keeper simply get the Diablo II Resurrected treatment. Keep the 2D sprite work, just make them super high resolution to make it easier on the eyes. Leave everything else alone. Ditto for other isomeric perspective games of that era like Diablo 1, the original X-Com or Syndicate/Syndicate Wars.
