HD Remakes

Heres one for you all.

Panzer Dragoon, Zwei, and Saga, all remade with HD graphics, on one disc, for 30 bucks.

I can dream can't I?

I might have to join in with you on that dream.

I'll hop along too.

Comix zone in HD alone would be great.

No Orta?

It already looks pretty dang good with component video.

I am positively incensed by the Rayman 3D "remake". Consider this: Rayman 3D is a [very poor] port of Rayman DS, which in itself was a [very poor] port of the PSX version of Rayman 2, which was already the worst version of all three Rayman 2 console releases. Both Rayman 3D and Rayman DS were launch titles for their respective systems, so it is quite obvious that they were very rushed ports, as very little was heard about them until just prior to each system's launch. I assume that Ubisoft rushed them out in a matter of weeks. The worst part is that Rayman 2 is a stellar game, which makes it shameful to see it distilled in such an unceremonious manner. Rayman 3D epitomizes exactly what is wrong with bad HD remakes: Cheap developers looking to make a quick buck without having to make a whole new game.

When done with great care, a tasteful new style, and given some time for the gaming public to miss the game in question a bit, HD remakes can be a cherished gift, but when these things are neglected, not only is the remake shamed, but so is the source material. No one wants that.

The PS1 version of RayMan 2 was my favorite.

Rayman 2 was so a great game, think I played the Dreamcast version myself...

The PS1 version of RayMan 2 was my favorite.

Yes, but it was clearly graphically inferior to the Nintendo 64, Dreamcast, and PS2 versions. Why was it your favorite? Just general nostalgia, or was there bonus content in the PS1 version that was not in the other releases?
