Games that Deserve a second chance

[Anonymous No.8822002]

Post /vr/ games that ACTUALLY deserve a "remake" / retooling / updated ports.

Games that maybe didn't do so hot, but had some decent redeeming elements
OR were not finished at their fullest potential.
No, I'm not saying Alien Soldier is bad

TLDR: Games that Deserve a second chance

Final Fantasy 8 was weird as fuck, but it had some neat ideas. I wouldn't mind another shot at it someday.

definitely Decap Attack, that's a cool fucking game and it deserves to get remastered like Act Raiser has!!

>>8822002
I'd say Sonic Heroes. I like the level design and the music but the physics are great. But honestly after that remake of Colors, we probably shouldn't ask for any more Sonic remakes

3D Blast got a sort of remaster in the form of the Director's Cut edition. While it's pretty neat and makes the game a bit more fun, it ultimately didn't do too much to fix what's a pretty fundamentally mediocre game.

>>8822116
I agree. FF8 had a lot going for it (best atmosphere in the series, for one thing). The gameplay just needs some tweaks so that it doesn't incentivize spamming Attack and Limit Breaks while avoiding combat as much as possible. I also think the core story is pretty good. The storytelling is what needs some work.

Did you make a typo here? I agree the levels and music were good but the character movement was garbage.

There was some guy that tried to create an engine replacement for FFVIII. He had good progress but has stopped for now.

FF8 would benefit massively from a pseudo remake sequel and actually fits the time jannies shit, unlike FF7 which was already fine.

FF8 has a great first disk, a setup for many interesting plotlines and themes and then peters out and drops the vast majority of them. One of the most obvious cases of a late rewrite/running out of time I can think of, which is a huge shame.

People would have been happy with or actively preferred a FF7 remaster, but 8 would be transformed by a remake like 7 got.

based, playing SS right now. Completed the dex on HG literally 10 years ago and haven't played since then. Shit is good. Coming off a fresh OG Gold replay too so I could note the differences. Very good remake.
>>8822002
Spyro could've been so good but they rushed the living fuck out of it. I remember being confused at why it was so short even at a young age. Wonder if we'll ever get a proper Spyro 4.
Crash Twinsanity actually was not bad. I played it for the first time in 2013'ish and I remember being pleasantly surprised.

I want them to use the amazing assets from this and make a proper classic Sonic game out of them.

There are a few remakes that were pretty good
RE1 and Metroid ZM comes to my mind

Zero Mission maybe but REmake is a fucking remake and remake does not automatically mean something is bad, M2's remakes of TwinBee Da!! and Castlevania The Adventure are both amazing and reimaginings can be great too like Final Fantasy Four: Heroes of Light and AM2R

[Anonymous No.8824198]

>>8824151
retard, you don't know what a reimagining is. RE1 is a remake, RE2 and 3 are reimaginings. even ZM is pretty faithful, it has an extra area but most changes were QoL ones.

It's not a remake, it's a sequel.

>Mizzurna Falls
This game deserves a remake with good mechanics and better progression, maybe on the hands of Sam Lake, this game fits well with Remedy's style.
Honestly, i played more because of the atmosphere and overall Alan Wake feeling, the twin peaks inspired story, and being open world on ps1

[Anonymous No.8824249]

Do you even believe in what you are saying yourself? Even if it only had that 'extra area' you are referring to and nothing else, it would still be more than just a remake since that extra area is like 1/3 of the game
>RE1 is a remake, RE2 and 3 are reimaginings
It's as much of a completely different game as RE2 and RE3. Actual remakes are N Sane trilogy, Super Mario 64 DS or SoTC PS4

[Anonymous No.8824292]

>>8822002
Why would you remake any of these?
Alien Soldier is solid, and The Thing is one of the best licensed games ever made.

Leave them alone and make something else.

Okay fuck that remake/reimagining autism, who cares if the game is good BUT by that logic x68000 is a remake of CV1 as well

Maybe not remakes, but port them to PC.
It's been long enough.

DMC2. There's definitely something in there that could be a good game. It just feels like it wasn't even finished.

[Anonymous No.8824357]

>>8824276
All the extra content in REmake was intended to be in the original but wasn't due to hardware limitations and time constraints. RE2 and 3 barely have anything to do with the originals.

[Anonymous No.8824653]

>>8822220
not to be that guy but even though I love the atmosphere and music of the early 3d sonic games it the physics never felt right to me coming from the fast but weighty feel of the 2d games

I don't give a fuck. Eyeballs, Zora swimming, whatever, it's less tedious therefore it's better. Got the Fierce Deity mask for the first time in my life in this version because I just couldn't bring myself to get all the masks in the original

Castlevania 64. It'll benefit from current generation standardization of 3D camera and controls. It's a solid game, but people that play it have to adapt to its current camera behavior and how the characters control while jumping and trying to grapple platforms.

Blood 2 has a kind of soul I resonate with... But it's a very very bad game. You'd need to remake it from the conceptual level.

>No Fear Downhill Mountain Biking
There is simply no good downhill game that i'm aware of, with street, road and dirt circuits.
Most these days are only off-road downhill. I want one with in-city detailed circuits that this one has, of course, up to the limitations of a Ps1.

i know LOK is a dead series and it'll never happen, but i wish they'd consider it before 90% of the original cast die, theres a time limit to it and without them the series genuinely loses half its charm.
also i forgot how good this song is.
