A shame the 800 version didn't get a 5200 showing, 2600 killed it. Reminds me a little of Gremlins.

Although it was mentioned in the OP, I would absolutely love to see a new Baldur's Gate game. Really, what is the hold up?

Psychic Force strongly deserves to get a third chance with the fighting game crowd now that they are more accustomed to aerial based fighters. PF2012's NESiCA re-release was a good start, but a proper sequel could blow current imitators straight out of the water.

Said it in a different thread but Sega and Capcom are sitting on a big sweaty pile of IP that need to be given new releases, most obviously Streets of Rage, Panzer Dragoon, Shenmue, Darkstalkers, Power Stone and Rival Schools among many others.

Gun would definately be awesome to see another entry in that series. Played it through about 3-5 times on the PS2.

Also wouldn't mind seeing a reboot or sequel to Mark Ecko's Getting Up Contents Under Pressure. Aside from the sloppy boss battles it was a very unique game that I really enjoyed.

Time splitters could also use a reboot was a big fan of the first game but 2 and Future Perfect were great.


I also think Quite a few of the early PS3 games that got screwed over by bad fan reaction to motion controls deserve another chance. Enjoyed both L.A.I.R. and Heavenly Sword.

The people who did the new Killer Instinct need to revive Rare's other IP... Battletoads. The same engine would probably be perfect as well.

I don't know how it hasn't happened yet.
