I wish that there were a reboot or remake of Total Overdose. It was a fun GTA-like game

    WipEout.

    Only BallisticNG has recaptured the same level of AG racing magic for me, by literally copying WipEout’s physics.

    But it doesn’t have the graphical polish of the newer games… RIP Studio Liverpool D:

    I’d much prefer a sequel, but a reboot to L.A. Noire would be just as welcome. Not only would the graphics be top-notch considering what we’ve seen lately with the Mafia remake set around the same time period, but I feel like Rockstar would be able to learn from some of the more glaring mistakes and improve heavily.

    Notably, the whole interrogation mechanic has some glaring flaws with what the interrogation options are called, and in how it chooses to tell you whether you got an answer right.

    Call me a cynic but I’d be afraid any rebooted favorite game of mine would be little more than a nostalgia cash grab in the current gaming economy and probably sour my memory of the original.

    Black & White! I’m honestly surprised it’s just been left to rot. I don’t think it’s even gotten the GOG treatment.

    There was a dos 4x game by logic factory called Ascendency. It was similar to Stellaris but more turn based and has a much more manageable interface. I really enjoyed the game mechanics and game races, which were all very unique. Id love to see it rebooted, but at least I can still play the original on dosbox.

    Alot of b tier games that I don’t think hit their true potential; just cause, infamous, red faction, sleeping dogs.

    Edit: also splinter cell

    Robot Arena 2 (2003). I had so much fun with that game as a kid. A reboot with modern physics and graphics would be awesome.

    This question comes up often. The only thing I can think of that I would actually want to see is a well-executed, modern take on Rock n’ Roll Racing.

    On modern consoles or PC, the game could have tons of tracks, way more great music, and much deeper mechanics and upgrade paths.

      Not the same but Blur was a nice time a while back. Sad that the series didn’t go anywhere.

      Oh and Toybox Turbos.

    Freelancer. Space games are in demand right now. That’s begging for a remaster, remake, or sequel.
