The only games I'd like to see remade are those which actually need it (bad controls, won't run on modern systems with reasonable tweaking, etc). Eg, System Shock 1 has pretty flaky controls / HUD even for its day and improving that is definitely welcome. Half the titles people think they want remade just because they're +10 years old don't really need it for playability. As Selaya said, half of those that do get remade are cheap & nasty cash grabs (The 7th Guest, Blade Runner, etc) where the main underlying reason for remaking / remastering it is to bump the price of 20-30 year old games back up, then find reasons to justify it as an afterthought. Or only done because of wanting a console port (with the new PC version then being a "port of a port"). Sometimes the people remaking it even actively hate the game they're working on and will massively screw it up (see the butchering of Commandos 2 "HD")...

Unreal Tournament 99, 2004, 3 was a farce. Deus Ex, Deus Ex Invisible War.
 
IMHO...

None. Because in this day and age, the mindset of game companies are all about...

1. Making the money above all.

2. Selling broken ALPHA games and letting the customers be beta testers at best.

3. Marketing vs Reality of the game. You see the sh!t being shown and when you get the game its at times completely different from marketing.

4. Voicing the current political message. Such as The Last of Us. Changing the look of characters because it offends a tiny but loud group of nut cases.

I can go on and on and on because I know the F#$%ing industry and its pitfalls.

Why do you think Good o' Jeff bailed/resigned so suddenly during his tenure in Overwatch? Or that T#$D J. Allen Brack resigned after promoting... CHANGE.... Hypocrites... all of them. I can not trust anything coming from the lips of AAA industry.
They been F#$%ing the players who IMHO many of them became sheeple since 2008. Otherwise we would not have the years of utter crap being shoved to the masses who been buying it for THE SHINIES.

Yea I'm incredibly bitter about this because I was there during the golden age of video games/entertainment industry and the wonderful freedom to create things by the written word and or visually. It was so damned fun. You felt like you accomplished something with all of your hard work.

You were a story.

And I miss that greatly.

Now it is Garbage in with check points and I want no part of funding the greed of people for the sake of nostalgia.

We lost something back then. The creative freedom to be free.
 
Ogre Battle March of The Black Queen / Ogre Battle 64 Person of Lordly Caliber
 
Bioshock, mostly 1 and Infinite.
SimCity 4+Rush Hour
Half Life 2
Red Dead Redemption 1
 
Porsche Unleashed 2000. SOF2. Project IGI
 
Need For speed Underground 1 and Black Hawk Down
 
No question Tron Deadly disc on the coleco vision (I think console with two gamepads on telephone cord's.

But in Vr and obviously as alick as possible but also similar to the original.

I can't help but Want to play that though I haven't seen it in years.
 
Atari 2600 Adventure. Remastered to 4K. And do it without all that LLM AI crap.

Show me. Show me what you can do you video game remasterbasterds with a single freakin' pixel.
 
Marathon, Bungie's Mac shooter before they made Halo. I was disappointed that the new Marathon game they announced is a PvP extraction shooter.

Next up, C&C Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2. The C&C Remastered Collection was fine, but I was more attached with these two games, and they should continue with the rest of the C&C catalogue.
 
Prince of Persia The Sands of Time. Ubisoft canceled the first remake of it recently due to bad quality, and I hope they are serious this time because they are trying again with a new team.

Also, the Kessen games on Playstation 2.
 
Parasite Eve.

Although I'm not holding my breath it's Parasite Eve for me as well. Hopefully with the popularity of the RE remakes SquareEnix looks into it. Even a remaster in the vien of Crisis Core would be awesome.

Legend of Dragoon would be my second choice.
