Classic Video Games that needs to have a Remake.

Out Run 2 HD's on XBLA and PSN

Yep. Easily the best Gradius game after the first. It's a bit of a shmup masterpiece for me, I prefer it to Ikaruga.

Other video games that need a remake are:

1. Freekstyle (PS2) for every console (except Nintendo 3DS, unless everyone is against that) - [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8xT-D0jg_s[/youtube]

2. Conker's Bad Fur Day (N64) for the Nintendo 3DS - [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoaIBhF9I_8[/youtube]

3. Top Hunter: Roddy & Cathy (SNK Neo Geo) for the Nintendo 3DS - [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf6GOYmHmYQ[/youtube]

4. Flashback: Quest for Identity (SNES) for every console - [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYIKnTJmGPc[/youtube]Although, I really want this game to look like Fade to Black and not this platformer version like Super Mario Bros.

5. Flashback 2: Fade to Black (SNES) for every console too - [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBzRLXjQWB8[/youtube]

6. Shock Troopers (SNK Neo Geo) for Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita - [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKYHBAqANDc[/youtube]

Half Life was already remade twice as Half Life: Source and Black Mesa: Source although they have yet to develop the Xen chapters for Black Mesa.

Definitely Zombies Ate My Neighbors. Someone already decided the game's engine. Maybe some cutscenes and decent voice acting. I was thinking at the top of my head two modes for the game.
Classic Mode - The original style gameplay with awesome CGI graphics.
Challenge Mode - gameplay featuring the old 3rd person camera behind player view.

With Megaman's 25th anniversary. I was thinking. A fan took Megaman 7 and Megaman 8 and turned them into what they would look like on the famicom. I was thinking take Megaman 9 and 10 and turn them into a style exceeding Megaman 8. I really liked the style of Megaman X8 graphics and physics wise. For Megaman 9, I have no idea yet. Protoman's story I don't know either. Bass story for Megaman 10 is simple: Prove to be better than Megaman and destroy all robot masters before he does. They meet at Wily Tower and fight as usual. Bass' ending I don't know how to match up towards the game's true ending since he just leaves Wily for dead. I also had the thought of some voicing acting during boss fights in both games. Lines would occur for the player's character depending on the player's health as well as the boss' health. Bass could do trash talk at the robot masters and Wily during boss fights. Megaman being pacifistic, I haven't thought of what he could say yet other than references to Robot Masters of the past. The rushed ending of Megaman 10 can be extended to Wily leaving behind a letter to Megaman saying despite all he's done they still showed him hospitality and he may consider rethinking his evil ways but don't count it for he'll be back again. For cutscenes, they'll be better than what Megaman 8 had. Music will be arranged versions of both games' OST. I have a lot more ideas on this but most of them keep fading.

Seconded! They should also re-release every Wing Commander in a mega-pack like the Kilrathi Saga. WC1 & 2 should be redone with modern graphics though.

Elite / Frontier Elite!

In fact, if another 250,000 can be pledged on Kickstarter by 4th Jan, its going to happen.

Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake are crying out for remakes.

A remake of Final Fantasy VII with updated graphics would make it absolutely perfect, in my humble opinion.

None. No more remakes.

Why?

I didn't like that game very much, and I don't like remakes very much, but this is one I think I have to agree with. Even back when that game came out, it had pretty dated graphics.

But I guess the creator (or whoever it is) is saying something about how they won't remake it until they make a new FF game that's better than it. I guess they've been pretty happy making FF games that nobody likes very much? =|

I always prefer new plots, new levels, new challenges, etc.

The original Metroid got its own remake with Zero Mission. Now we need one for Return of Samus.

I think ff7 is as good as its gonna get for these guys. I really liked a lot of the sound scores from that game and can't help but feel they'd just trump them up (like add a few drum rolls). In a way, the music enhanced the dialogue more than voice acting would've.
