Old games that need a remake




















Parasite Eve is a classic example of a tremendous concept hindered by sloppy execution. So far as story and environment go, Parasite Eve is a masterpiece. The game sees you play an NYPD officer named Aya Brea who becomes mixed up in a truly strange story involving spontaneous combustion, science, and the supernatural.

Parasite Eve is the kind of kind of game that deserves a modern day makeover simply because those who know about it need more people to discuss it with. Vampire: The Masquerade — Bloodlines is much more than a name that contains way too much punctuation for a game title; it also so happens to be one of the deepest single-player RPGs ever made. One of the things that helped make the Game Boy a cultural sensation was its ability to reasonably emulate NES games.

Much like the Switch is showing consumers now, people like to be able to take console-like experiences with them on the go. However, Psi-Ops ups the ante quite a bit by introducing a variety of psychic powers that allow gamers to perform some fairly impressive in-game maneuvers.

Mark of Kri is a bit different than the other games on this list in that it arguably still holds up from a gameplay and technological standpoint without a remake. Instead, our desire for a remake of this game stems entirely from the sad fact that not enough gamers got to play this masterpiece upon its release. Long before Arkham Asylum perfected the idea of multi-character brawling in a 3D setting, Mark of Kri helped pioneer a similar system that revolved around assigning a button to each enemy.

Despite certain gameplay familiarities, Mark of Kri has enough unique features to its name to ensure that a remake would leave its mark on the modern-day gaming scene. Much like EarthBound , the internet has helped Illusion of Gaia arguably become more famous now than it was upon its release.

Illusion of Gaia is a difficult game to explain. It is a grand adventure through a mythical setting that combines elements of Final Fantasy and The Legend of Zelda. In fact, we are quite certain that Illusion of Gaia would have become one of the most beloved games of all-time if it had shipped with the Zelda name. Lost Odyssey — alongside Blue Dragon — was one of the JRPGs that Microsoft hoped would capture the attention of Japanese console gamers who had shown relatively little interest in purchasing an Xbox What a shame that is.

While titles like Shadow of Rome , Gladiator: Sword of Vengeance , and Colosseum: Road to Freedom are all noteworthy in their own right, it is Gladius that stands as the best gladiator game ever made. Unlike other gladiator games, which primarily focused on arena combat, Gladius is a tactical role-playing game that utilizes a rock, paper, scissors-style combat system. That comparison aside, there are few games that offer what Gladius did and even fewer that captured the gladiator atmosphere quite like this title.

It retains many of the design elements that made A Link to the Past so notable but also incorporates certain world-design qualities that would define later Zelda games.

Reliving the old days through a remake would be great fun. The unique atmosphere of the fantasy world was what particularly grabbed me at the time. There were also the complex role-playing strategies that left me hooked. We use cookies to optimise and continuously improve our website for individual users like you.

Though the remake is arguably better than the original, only minimal changes have been made. Based on the original that released back in , and it's received a significant overhaul, with new scenes adding more depth. One of the advantages publishers have is that gamers tend to be very nostalgic when it comes to the old favorite games.

These games might have blown their minds at the time, and now they want to re-live the experience. However, some games, like the Counter-Strike series, never get old. Players are happy to play the same game over and over again for years on end with only minor graphics and gameplay changes. So, how do publishers decide which games deserve remakes? Obviously, they likely decide based on a game's popularity -- and how much money the original made. It wouldn't be a great move to remake a game that flopped the first time around.

The problem with this mindset, however, is that financial success isn't always an indicator of whether a game is good or bad, and thus whether it deserves a remake.
