Remember your favorite old game? The one that you used to play all the time years ago, perhaps the one that you still take out for a spin now and then today.

Imagine that game remade, instead of having a 486 and 8mb of RAM as it's optimum, imagine it made for a Geforce 2 MX, 800 Mhz, 64 mb RAM, Surround Sound and whatever other goodies you might have now that you didn't have then....

Wouldn't that just be totally cool? Your favorite game remade?

I can clearly imagine some of my favorite old games(Lands of Lore 1, Hero Quest/Quest for Glory series, Chrono Trigger(SNES game), Betrayal at Krondor.), with their cool stories and great characters, games that I still find at least as fun as BG2, I can clearly imagine those games remade, no story changes, no changes to what happens or to dungeon lay-outs or to the foes or the combat system.

Just juiced up with some of the best that modern techonology can offer.

Am I the only one that can see the coolness in this idea?

I posted mid-last-year about this. Ultima IV & V, of Origin Systems, are both beng remade...
And they looked great, at the time.
I'll see if I can find that info again...

I Can Remember An Old Game Called Spy Vs. Spy On My Atari, That Would Just Totally Kick Ass Remade. So Would An Old Game I Can Remember Called Pandora. You Were On A Spaceship And You Had To Go Around With Different Weapons Killing Loads Of People. That Would Rock!!
