If you were rich would you fund a video game sequel?

Given the size of my Steam library, I feel like I have given Valve enough of my money to fund Half-Life Episode 3. I just need Valve to deliver now.

Q*Bert 2: Q*Bin' it Up

EDIT: Never mind, they already did it. Called Q*Bert's Qubes. Need to get that game then.

Uh...Donkey Kong Jr. 2? No, DK Jr. Math does not count.

I always thought that if I came into a bit of money, I would buy the rights and source code to the original Master of Magic, then pay someone to modify it for modern operating systems and fix the outstanding bugs.

Can't believe I forgot Phantasy Star V. That would be amazing. It would have to be 2D and play like the traditional games, of course. Sega needs to stop milking Phantasy Star Online and make this now!

I'd fund Commander Keen 7 and an English release of the Mother trilogy.

I would do a new Legacy of Kain game (written by Amy Hennig) and a remake or remaster of the original games.

Herzog Zwei 2 or Zwei Zwei if you prefer.

The title would be Indiana Jones and the Iron Phoenix and/or Indiana Jones and the Spear of Destiny, and it would be in 2d and made for PCs, not consoles - stupid Monkey Island remake with its console controls, I want traditional SCUMM controls.

If I cant be assured of that, Ill pay fans to make it so I can have that much control.

I have the Monkey Island remake for my iPad and I think it works pretty well with a touch screen. That being said I would love a third Monkey Island sequel made by Schafer and Gilbert.


Conker's Bad Fur Day 2 and Psychonauts 2 are both high on my list as well.

I'd want to see Shining Force IV made by Camelot. And Star Control 3 made by Toys for Bob (and we shall never again speak of the game formerly known as Star Control 3).
