What's an old game you'd like to see get a modern update?

Download the scott pilgram game.

Been there, done that, got the soundtrack.

I originally experience Indiana Jones gaming on the NES with Temple of Doom and I know there have been PC games and an Xbox title, but, is it time for another Indiana Jones game?

So...Black and White or Sim City?

Why not both? I'm ok with the action levels if they completely revamp them.

True Lies for the Megadrive. Or Genesis if you're that way out. Was a quality top down shooty action game. Much fun was had with this bad boy. Also, again from the Megadrive, I'd like a refreshed Cannon Fodder. Good fun was that. Shot many a dog in the face.

On that note, a new Visual Concepts football game. The fact that EA still hasn't been able to match a game from 2004 is fuking horrible

A new side-scrolling beat 'em up Streets of Rage would be good. A new Capcom side-scrolling beat 'em up of some type would also be nice.

Based on what I've played, the best beat-'em-up of the last few years is Castle Crashers.

River City Ransom would be a great remake.

I can't believe I forgot about this. That Mickey Mouse game for the SNES where you wear different hats that give you different abilities. It was magical something. I'll need to look it up.

edit: So I just looked it up. It was Disney's Magical Quest. Starring Mickey Mouse. And apparently it was the first of a trilogy. Why the f*** did I not know there was a trilogy??

Right, i was just saying what you described exsists already.
They did completly revamp the action levels in 2, people didn't like 2 as much.

Castle Crashers is fun. There was a while were that's all a few of my friends would play.

From what I've played of it Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game is the best of the new beat 'em ups; it's a bit like a remake of River City Ransom mixed with Mighty Final Fight. It would be great if Ubisoft made another beat 'em up with Paul Robertson...but just let him go crazy.

Well, yeah, but they manage to release a gazillion games in every other genre. I'm sure Actraiser can make a comeback without saturating the world-building god genre. Especially since it has a solid story to build on.

I'm pretty sure it's hated because they completely removed the sim aspect, which was the most unique thing about Actraiser for the time.

Time to update Cinemaware products. Had great fun with It came from the desert , rocket ranger etc back in the day. They mixes different type of gameplay into one game which is always fun.
Did a search and surprised that the game company are still active considering that they had been around since the 80s.

[sHayden]

I would really like to be able to say Splatterhouse but we already got Heavy Metal Boob Photo Quest.

[graffiX]

I would like to play the original Double Dragon for the NES with updated graphics. Same story, level design, etc. I know Double Dragon Neon came out awhile ago, but it sounds like almost a totally new DD experience.

A Strider remake would be good too. Always loved that game.

Yeah, that's why.
They didn't care the action in the first one was lackluster because it was gimmicky.
It's not like the gameplay in MGS4 was amazing, 90% of the game was people talking, but people liked it.

In this day and age people would wig out over Billy Lee fighting Linda in amongst Chins, Rowpers, and Abobos.

[Jeremi]

First on my list would no doubt be Little Samson. Don't know how many know about or played it here, but it's probably one of the best platformers on the NES.

Sweet Home is a game I think that could be pretty interesting as well.

Primal Rage is one that I think could be pretty fun too.

Others I'd like to see are Battletoads, Wild Guns, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Tournament Fighter and Earthbound.

[StreetFighterRyu]

The Star Wars games for SNES. The right stick would definitely help with the aiming.
