Parasite Eve would be great.

Ratchet751284d ago

That's a square Enix franchise.

Minute Man 7211283d ago

Shhhh 🤐 don't ruin it for them

phoenixwing1284d ago

Legend of dragoon would be good.

Pughski1284d ago

If only. One of my favorite RPGs as a kid

phoenixwing1284d ago

I don't know why more jrpgs haven't stolen off of the addition system in that game it's really satisfying

Pughski1284d ago

It was just so damn fun. Everything about it I loved.

Relientk771284d ago

Legend of Dragoon
Dark Cloud
Rogue Galaxy
Ape Escape
Syphon Filter
Sly Cooper
Twisted Metal
Folklore
Tiny Tank

Hellcat20201284d ago

Folklore is a true hidden gem

RPGer1284d ago

Is it worth it for now? Or didn't aged well?

gold_drake1284d ago

@RPGer

its.... a good game, a really good game. but only if your into occult/fairytale stuff. but its definitely a watch/play :)

SamTheGamer1284d ago

Twisted Metal was so much fun.

roadkillers1284d ago

Yeah, give the crackball Jaffe some work. He may have went off the rails, but he is the father of both Twisted Metal and God of War.

1Victor1284d ago (Edited 1284d ago )

Jumping flash VR
Warhawk the original on VR and the remake plus sequel

SullysCigar1284d ago

Hell yeah, especially Warhawk VR!

Ulf1284d ago (Edited 1284d ago )

Folklore was top 5 RPGs of the PS3/360 era. Maybe Top 3... and we'll never see it again.

Ratchet751284d ago

Jak and daxter
Star hawk
The order 1886

jivah1284d ago

Id take a modern reboot on Brave fencer Musashi. Maybe a new Tenchu. Heavenly sword would be sick. Mention Klonoa and I might get a little excited too lol

Relientk771283d ago

Only reason I didn't mention Brave Fencer Musashi or Tenchu is because Sony doesn't own them. I'll take all the games you listed, they should all return.

Michiel19891283d ago

put Fear Effect on there as well, belong in that list with ps1 games ;)

I’m just shocked that Square doesn’t do more Remakes of older IPs. Xenogears and Parasite Eve would be killer... although 3rd birthday does make me lose faith in Square being able to make a decent Parasite Eve game, but if they treated it like Capcom treated RE2 then it’d be incredible.

Ratty1284d ago

Agreed. I'd love to see this come true but Xenogears and Parasite Eve aren't popular enough. Xenogears has an intense but small cult following. I'd rather see a new Xenogears but I'd definitely take a well-made remake or hell even a remaster with high definition sprites and environments. If they were to give it the same treatment as FF7 it'd probably take over a decade to make.

Parasite Eve might have more luck at a remake... especially if Square wants to ride Capcom's trend of remaking classic Resident Evil titles.

lonewolf101284d ago

PE and Resistance for me off of that list.

I would definitely enjoy a Xenogears remaster. Recently finished Legend of Dragoon again (this time with platinum trophy) and would love to dive back into Xenogears with Fei and the rest of the crew.

closed_account287d ago

Came here to say Xenogears as well. Great taste, raWfodog!

notachance287d ago

It needs more than a remaster though, I hope they can turn disc 2 into a full game..

Kneetos286d ago (Edited 286d ago )

I wonder how they would even handle a xenogears remaster

Would they give it to monolith soft (the original developers) to handle, and more then likely make it a Nintendo exclusive, cue the endless bitching from Sony fans...

Or will they do it themselves, thus not finishing the original story as intended

raWfodog286d ago

"... and more then likely make it a Nintendo exclusive"

I would think it'd eventually hit all the platforms much like the Front Mission 1st Remake. That way no one would be 'bitching' regardless of your platform preference lol.

Miraak82 286d ago

They don't need the original people , they already have the foundation of characters ,world and lore to work off of.
Honestly it's not that big of a game if you really examine it by modern standards , it's how they present everything that makes it seem so grand especially with how epic the story/music is . SE have good writers that could incorporate post release lore of perfect works and such if they ever remade it from the ground up.

gold_drake288d ago

"THE BOUNCER"

scares me everytime i play it haha

Godmars290287d ago (Edited 287d ago )

Maybe this time around it could be good/playable?

Becuzisaid286d ago

Lol! What a game. Had a lot of fun with it. Beat it multiple times!

Marcello288d ago

Square Enix classics? dont they mean Squaresoft. Square Enix dont make classic games, just games with pretty graphics, no heart & soul, boring & over stuffed with woke Gen Z cockiness.

But while were on the subject i would love too see a remaster of Front Mission 3.

ZeekQuattro287d ago

They already announced a Front Mission 3 remake. Doubt they'll also do a remaster.

Marcello287d ago

I will get the remake but i still want a remaster cos with all remakes they lose a lot of the original magic the original game had.

Godmars290287d ago

Pretty sure its going to be a remaster of the game, similar to what's been done with the first two games, not a remake.

FF7r is certainly more a remake of FF7 than a remaster for instance.

Now, if they did Gun Hazard remaster...

raWfodog287d ago (Edited 287d ago )

Yeah they call it a remake like "Front Mission 1st Remake" but I'd consider it more of a remaster as it doesn't change any of the core gameplay but basically just sharpens up the graphics. I think they added a couple of new features also but I still think it's more of a remaster.

Like @Godmars290 suggested, FF7Remake fits the mold of a remake since they 'remade' the game from the ground up, changing the battle system completely, and retelling the story with a lot of different elements added.

But I guess they can call it what they want since they're making it lol.

DeadManMMX287d ago

Exactly. SquareSoft merged with Enix shortly after Final Fantasy X and it has never been the same.

Gardenia287d ago

I miss the old Squaresoft games. So much quality back then.

Terry_B288d ago

Almost all of the listed games are not Square Enix Classics lol

AdventurerDonLocke287d ago

Quintet Gaia Trilogy: Soulblazer, Illusion of Gaia & Terranigma.

15 Most Underrated PlayStation Games (PS1)

The PlayStation (PSX or PS1) was home to a whole load of amazing games. The system is arguably the best console for RPGs and helped revolutionize sports and shooter games. With such an influx of overwhelmingly great PS1 RPGs and other games, it’s only natural that a few would slip through the cracks.

I thought Dune 2000 was something I made up in my head. I used to ask my brothers about the sand level in Command and Conquer. The interface is like dead-on.

CrimsonWing69829d ago

I’m fairly certain Parasite Eve was not underrated. The game got a greatest hits release and is pretty fondly remembered to this day.

SegaSaturn669829d ago

The Quest Mode for Ehrgeiz is phenomenal. Really good looking ps1 game that benefits from modern emulation.

Nerdmaster829d ago

I find it weird Um Jammer Lammy being so unknown when I think it's much better than Parappa. It even has a secret second half which you play as Parappa himself, with rap versions of the songs.
However, while Parappa is famous and his first game even got a remaster, Um Jammer Lammy stays forgotten.

Nyxus1114d ago

I'd like to see Xenosaga remakes.

ManMarmalade1113d ago

Yes. It was supposed to be 6 episodes too, which makes me sad. I also would really like Legend of Dragoon to AT LEAST get a remaster.

on_line_forever1113d ago

I always ask for parasite eve 1 & 2 remake and vagrant story remake

Z5011113d ago

Absolutely!
Ashley Riot is a forgotten name. I'd love to see a remake and a modern take on the "limb/body part" target system.

Lore1113d ago

Just finished Rogue Galaxy and Dark Cloud 2. While they both hold up extremely well, Dark Cloud 2 could significantly benefit from a full on remake as Rogue Galaxy was impressive for it’s time on a technical and mechanical aspect. Legend of Dragoon ftw as well

HyperMoused1113d ago

i want some super nes ones reimagined, Secret of Evermore would be great

Rebel_Scum1113d ago (Edited 1113d ago )

I would rather play new experiences, new ip's. If a game is truly great the original should hold up and be enjoyable as is today.
