What old 90's games would you like to see remade?

Baldur's Gate needs a sequel! Icewind Dale or Planescape Torment too.

If also dig a sequel to Marathon (although Halo and Destiny are loosely sequels). Escape Velocity is owed a sequel too. Been years since Nova.

It's a shame part 3 got canned all those years ago. They were talking about releasing 3 if the enhanced editions sold well, which they did as far as I know.

As long as any future game was released with AD&D2 to keep in line with the rest of the series it's all good by me. I might go back and play BG this week

I'd even accept it with 3.5 rules, but 4th Edition can go to hell. It wasn't an RPG then - it was an MMO.

The next edition of D&D (named Next) is very similar to 2nd Edition, albeit streamlined. Might be a good time to release a new Baldur's Gate and cash in on the nostalgia.

4th edition cut down alignment to 3 didn't it?

Just reading about BG from the guys who did the enhanced version, they don't even think BG2 Enhanced will be released or BG: Enhanced will be back in stores much less a future BG game :( looks like we can only dream.

4th Edition did away with most alignments, gave classes MMO roles like crowd control and tank, gave every class powers and free heals, and reduced combat to tabletop board game shit.

Completely removed the RP, the imagination, and the role of the DM.

In case you don't have it yet, it's available on Steam right now for $4.99 US. I have it on iOS, but I'm not a huge fan of gaming that way. Just picked it up.

Yeah,

Theme Hospital involves operating a hospital and trying to save people. They have big head diseases and crazy illnesses. It was pretty fund back in the day.

OutRun! That type of game where you drive from checkpoint to checkpoint, or coast to coast, none of the happy lap stuff. I found that they've been getting better as they've released them as the years go on. I think 2006 was the last one and it was pretty good on PS2.

Great game. The diseases were good fun, Elvis Complex, Bloaty Head (cured by popping them with a pin), Vomit chain reaction. Could never get my Docs and Nurses out of the staff room with the pool table though.
