You, call 911, you, get an AED for that old game that for some reason has been ignored for years in favour of a highly profitable, loot box laden multiplayer battle royal game! There was a thread in the old place for games that need to be brought back from the beyond, so, at risk of boring people to death, I thought i’d Bring it back for others who can simply not just focus on their backlog, but must also live in the glorious, rose coloured past. My game to bring back from the dead is is a PS1 gem that a friend introduced me to and I would have totally ignored because of the way it was marketed (read the article, you will understand), Silent Bomber. If this game would have made it onto the recently released PS1 classic console, I would have picked it up. I would love to see a group like Housemarque be given the wheel to remake this classic game, they would tear shit up and make this into a monster, the game in that studios hands would be incredible! Too bad no one bought any of Housemarque’s amazing shit, and now they are making shitty phone games or something. Here’s an article Kotaku put up a while ago about Silent Bomber, enjoy! www.kotaku.co.uk/2016/11/30/silent-bomber-a-forgotten-playstation-classic |

Skitchin' for the Mega Drive! Loved that game for some reason and still play it on emulators occasionally.

I still want a new Primal Rage some day. The original is far, far better than it gets credit for and had some pretty good combos and gameplay systems, and seeing the stop motion characters on an extra sized monitor in the arcade was an experience.

Rugby Challenge is the first name that comes to mind. I know I'll put in something else later.

Anyone ever play Super Baseball Simulator 1.000 on SNES? That and Baseball Stars are my favorite baseball games of all time. Thing is, I've never really been that big a fan of baseball in RL (to watch or play) but I f'n LOVED those two games. Baseball Stars was like the perfect mix between arcade and simulation gameplay in the golden age of NEO GEO 2D graphics. SBS 1.000 was more simulation in some ways (like the management mode of the game) but then had a more arcadey-approach with "Special moves" that the batter and pitcher could use. Things like "multi ball" as a pitch or "rocket" as a batting maneuver. It just really gripped me and you could make your own teams and spread the special moves out. Would love to see it get resurrected in modern form. Edit: Good review of it here! ⚾ I'd love a 2D sequel to Battle of Olympus (NES) as well. It was a 2D side-scrolling game based around Greek mythology and was really fun to play. |

On subject, I've also been thinking about Gemfire again lately. I know it's just a standard "European" fantasy setting but I obsessed over it as a kid. Kinda wish Tecmo Koei would do a Warriors Empires game like that. |

I love the original ActRaiser for the SNES. I would love to see a proper sequel to that game, with the city building combined with the great action levels. I always loved Philosoma for the PS1, a great schmup IMO. Ooh and a sequel for Comix Zone as well would be nice. :)

NBA Street. Sure it's "only" been 12 years since they made one but those games were a lot of fun and NBA Street volume 2 remains one of my singular greatest sports game experiences ever.
Also, despite the last one being.....not great......I've always wanted another Def Jam wrestling game.

Also, despite the last one being.....not great......I've always wanted another Def Jam wrestling game. Yes, and yes on both of those, undoubtedly. NBA Street V2 was a quantum leap over the first one, which was a great concept, but a broken mess in execution that favored quick twitch entirely over any sort of tactics. V2 was beautiful, graphically, fluid in gameplay, had some great mechanics, enough legends to mix things up, great court selection, and just enough craziness to bring the hype. V3 was a mess, though. And another Def Jam either as a wrestling game, or a proper followup to FFNY? I'd snap that up in an instant. FFNY remains on my list of favorite games ever and I still play it from time to time. |

EDIT: Ah, posted this before I saw someone else already did.
On topic, a rather obscure game I would love to see make a triumphant return is Rampart. Part puzzle game and part turnbased strategy. Remember renting this on both the NES and SNES and being completely addicted to it.
Seeing a modernized version of this with new gameplay mechanics and multiplayer features would be an instant buy from me. It would also be one of those games I would buy on multiple platforms.

Another franchise I’d love to see come back is Tenchu. I got excited when FROM put out screen shot of the grappling hook from what would eventually become Sekiro, but that game is nothing like Tenchu. Sadly, Tenchu is dead, how would it fit into a landscape that is saturated with Assassin’s Creed, which really is Tenchu realized to a far greater potential than it ever was, and other stuff like the Mordor games, Hitman, Sniper Elite, and a whole pile of other stuff. Oh well, it will always have a fine spot in my memory!
The Riddick games are another victim of similar shit done too well to warrant more entries into the series. I loved Butcher Bay, but with Dishonoured, fallout, Skyrim, Wolfenstien, another Riddick game isn’t likely.

Older games are much better then newer games.
Why?
Storylines.
Most new age games focus on online BS, but older ones focus on storylines which are much better.
I still have the gameboy colour, ps1, ps2 and psp.
i also buy heaps of older stuff on steam like i have nearly finished Urban Chaos from 1999, who cares about graphics it's the storyline that matters.
I also emulate a whole bunch of older stuff from SG-1000 which was Sega's first console trying to play heaps of older stuff when i'm bored to get a fell of what it was like 20 - 30 years ago in gaming.
