Command and conquer series. They're the best RTS games honestly.

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.
Hands down, Jak and Daxter. Those were my favorite games growing up.
I also wish that Banjo Kazooie/Tooie would get a remaster.
A Hat in Time and Yooka Kaylee scratch that Banjo itch pretty well.
Dragon Age Origins. It’s getting long in the tooth and harder and harder to play on PC, plus you can’t play it on any of the last two PS consoles.
I'd love a Dragon Age legendary edition similar to what Bioware did with Mass Effect.
Biggest problem is that they used a different engine for all 3 Dragon Age games so it would need a lot more work. Maybe someday.
Jade Empire. I'd love a new one but I'd take a remake at this point. Such an excellent, peak-Bioware game.
Another for LA Noire, favorite cop game of mine, but also Syndicate holds a special place that should be explored more.
Knights of the Old Republic 2
Supposedly they are still working on a reboot of the first one. But that one is fine. They were never allowed to finish the second one.
I'm actually against the idea of a reboot / remake for most of the games listed here. They're already good games, a modern update would only serve to render them obsolete in the minds of many and reduce the lasting cultural impact of the original titles. Re releases of the original versions, sure, but full on reboots / remakes, absolutely not.
I believe that, like film, game remakes should be reserved for titles that had potential they never lived up to, or where a developer has a fresh interpretation of a title that doesn't supplant the original, such as the case with Final Fantasy VII.
To that end, some games I personally would like to see remade or rebooted are Whiplash, Jurassic Park Trespasser, Sonic 06, Enter The Matrix, and Nightmare Creatures.
I would love to see a new Skies of Arcadia game on modern hardware!
Command and Conquer and it's counterpart Red Alert. But with the love of RA2.
Freelancer. Space games are in demand right now. That's begging for a remaster, remake, or sequel.
Ape Escape, MediEvil 2, Tombi
Basically games from my childhood that I wouldn't mind getting the Spyro Reignited Trilogy treatment
Oh man Ape Escape. I remember needing to buy a controller with joysticks specifically for it since the default controllers didn't have them.
It's crazy how gaming has evolved.
A lot of classic PS1 era games would be great to see remastered, the control schemes can be odd on some, and for many the graphics did not age as gracefully as the more stylized games.
My god Ape Escape was so hard! I saw a speed run a while back (GDQ maybe?) and it was so cathartic to see someone master the game in a way child me never could.
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.
Nothing has ever quite scratched that Ascendancy itch. It really was a great game, even taking off the nostalgia-glasses. A proper remake or spiritual successor would be thrilling!
It's still a ton of fun to play, and it's really low stress for a 4x game. Plenty of time to plan and strategize. They had re-released the original as an iphone game about a decade ago, but it wasn't the same.
Zelda 2. Or a spiritual successor might be even better. The hybrid top-down/side-scrolling perspectives is key to the feel of the game imo.
Bloodborne
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.
Legend of Dragoon. One of my favorite turn based RPGs.
Rick Dangerous - It's time
Funny i had the Same thought when i was reading the title
I'd love to see remakes of the original Phantasy Star series. I enjoy PSO, but it's just not the same.
Chrono trigger and give it the ff7 treatment
You can't mess with perfection. Chrono Trigger is still amazing.
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.
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:
It's not a super well known game, but I'd kill for a remake of Creatures 2. Even a more stable version of the original would make me happy
Love the Creatures games, with Creatures 2 being my personal favorite of the 3-4 main series ones. FWIW I had more luck with the Steam version than the GOG version as far as getting it running decently on Windows 10.
Legacy of Kain / Soul Reaver series for sure. I would pay absurd amounts of money to play through these again.
toomba
It is hardly known, but I miss the action rpg "Lost Kingdom" by FromSoftware for the GameCube. You summoned creatures and monsters in battle with cards and it had a gloomy, eerie atmosphere, I remember some really scary level. I found this at a flea market when I was fifteen, so it was such a special find. It had one sequel, but after that the game disappeared. :<
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
The Burnout, WipeOut and Ridge Racer series. All of those are perhaps the best arcade racers ever released on consoles, and they're all dead now. I've been playing the PS1 and PS2 games, and they all still hold up tremendously today.
Time splitters would be perfect. Also, Duke Number healing with today's social climate would be really fun
Breath of Fire but add more Bara furries.
I wish we could have a legend of legaia remake. I would love to see some of the body horror levels in modern graphics and if the remake really captured the post Apocalypse feel of the original it would be a masterpiece
@small44 I'd really like to see a remake of Snoopy Flying Ace. It was a multiplayer game released on XBLA that plays similarly to Crimson Skies featuring Peanuts characters.
Medal of Honor. One of my first experiences with a single player FPS and it was just solid and immersive.
After finishing RDR2, i really want to play RDR1 but its not available on pc :'c
