Games you would like to see remade

[Mulk he/him]

The entire Myst series aside from the original, which gets remade fairly regularly as the tech updates.

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time

Need for Speed: Most Wanted, the 2005 game, probably the best driving game I've ever played

I've not played these, but two good friends think of Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross as fantastic games, and I never got to play them at the time.

I've payed Chrono Trigger and it is definitely great, though I don't know that it would actually benefit much from a remake.  You might be able to clean up the graphics a bit, but I worry it would end up like the Link's Awakening remake, whose graphics I hate.  as far as game mechanics, I don't think there is much that needs fixing, though it has been a good while since I played it, so i might be forgetting somehing.  Chrono Cross I Haven't tried

Now I doubt that many others will know what I'm talking about, but I'd love to see the "Birthright: The Gorgon's Alliance," either remade, or completely rebooted. It was a fun strategical game that I remember fondly from my childhood, as I've always been a more strategical gamer when it comes to my personal preference. 

The game itself was about a succession crisis in a fantasy world where a The Gorgon was gathering an alliance to take over the realm for himself. You took command of a small fiefdom in the realm and had to grow your power-base through conquest, diplomacy, economic development, and even through a first person questing game mode. You could choose to play nearly any fiefdom to play as, and you could even side with the Gorgon's Alliance if my memory serves correct, although the game was designed to have the player fight against the Gorgon and eventually kill it. I never finished the game, but it had pretty decent gameplay for when it was released, with a turn based strategic mode for the large map, and a real time tactical battlefield for combat with you armies, and even a 3D environment for you to quest in. Given that this game came out in 1996, I believe that this is a pretty impressive set-up. I mean, it's definitely dated now, but it was fun to play when I was younger.

Infinity Blade - all 3 games.

Especially since Brandon had input on the storyline for #s 2 and 3, and wrote novellas to bridge between 1-2 and 2-3.

The story was fabulous - I kinda wish it was an actual book as well as a game.

The gameplay was fun since it was gesture/position based, not a controller or mouse (it was an iPad game).

I also liked the humor (you could "upgrade" your armor to a bunch of cardboard boxes, or your helmet to a jack-o-lantern or a turkey's head, etc.).

Wish they could remake it - maybe this time have it use a controller and one of the standard platforms, not be tied to an Apple iOS.

huh, never heard of i, but it reminds me of a am my friend likes called "Hearts of Iron" where you play through WWII as pretty much any country.  including ones that weren't really involved.  He did a game as Mexico once where his goal was to take back the mexican territories from the USA while they were busy fighting in Europe.

I've heard of that one. I believe that the most recent one (Hearts of Iron 4 I think) on that series is still getting live service patches and updates.
