Top 10 Games to revive for the PlayStation 3

PSU writes:

The game industry seems to be turning to remakes of old classics such as Alone in the Dark and Bionic Commando or relying on producing blockbuster sequels like Resident Evil 5 and Killzone 2 in order to push this generation forward. PSU has decided to put together a list of archived titles, remembered and forgotten, that should be brought back from the dead, to live again on the PlayStation console. A list of titles that once graced our beloved platforms with unique ideas, interesting characters, and just all around fun gameplay. Whether it's a new set of paint, updated audio, or the sake of reliving the franchise, here are the Top 10 Games to revive for the PlayStation 3.

[Whoooop]

fork???

[jamilion]

Am i missing something? When did the ps3 need reviving?

[masterofpwnage]

ps3 doesnt need any saving but is always good to have more games.

and beside it doesnt say 10 games to revive the ps3

it says 10 games to revive for the ps3

that means they want them to make a ps3 version

notin about ps3 need saving

[Mainman]

Metal Gear Solid 1 for me please.

[mistertwoturbo]

masterofpwnage is probably one of those annoying 12 year old kids that calls everybody Ng'er.

anyway, a PS3 Legacy of Kain would be amazing.

[ikkokucrisis]

1. Syphon Filter
2. Bushido Blade
3. Battle Arena Toshinden
4. Colony Wars
5. Parappa the Rapper
6. Point Blank
7. Deception
8. Xenogears (remake of the original)
9. Chrono Trigger
10. Ico

[Tyler Durden]

i want tomba one of the best platformers ever made for PS1

[Domenikos]

That game was so freaking amazing, boss battles are great.

[g3nkie]

It would be amazing if they were to bring that out. One of my favs from the PS1 days.

[Domenikos]

Legacy of cain on ps3 = epic

Dreams, dreams, dreams

[Sangria]

100% agreed. I played not so long time ago Soul Reaver on Dreamcast and Blood Omen on Playstation, just to "revive" epic feelings that only Legacy Of Kain series can give.

In my opinion, Blood Omen 2 was the least interesting, but all the others are amazing. I even remember having played Legacy Of Kain Defiance several times with different languages. I'm french, so i started in french, the in english, in deutsch, in italian,... and each time, dubbing was great (Raziel in english and Kain in deutsch are maybe my favorite).

Always with Defiance, i remember having been disappointed when there were no announcement about a possible Defiance 2 or Soul Reaver 3. There is still at least one question that have not been answered

SPOILER
The fact that Raziel may be a Hylden
EN OF SPOILER

and the following of the Kain's quest with his full Soul Reaver. But whatever, Legacy Of Kain series will still be deeply engraved in my heart at the same intensity as Metal Gear Solid series. Legacy Of Kain deserves to be on (true) next gen consoles.

[Dark General]

Would rock my socks. I remember first playing Soul Reaver on the Dreamcast since then it has always been on my top franchise/top 10 games list. I only was able to play the beginning bits of Soul Reaver 2 and i own Blood Omen 2 i want to get defiance or Soul Reaver 2 to get more story. It's a severely under rated series which i love. I'd love a current gen iteration. Imagine the possibilities of the Dark Gifts and the settings.

[Chubear]

I would dance a dance of pure joy the day that gets announced.

[Domenikos]

God the game was so complex in every single way on PS1, imagine on ps3 just wow

[Dream Machine]

OH MY GOD! Intelligence Qube! I've been trying to remember the name of that game for ages! I loved those weird puzzle games that used to come out.

Kula World made it onto PSN, so you never know I suppose. I'd love to play it again.

I wouldn't mind FFVIII being remade, but without any voice acting if at all possible, God they can cast good voice actors for new characters but when Square-Enix retroactively voice them, its almost always terrible.

[titntin]

Twisted Metal
Dark Cloud
Final Fantasy VII

Watch E3 for announcements. I expect tos ee all three of these titles on this platform. :)

[ChrisGTR1]

dino crisis

[Polluted]

Jet Moto would be sweet. I personally want to see a new Colony Wars.

[SixTwoTwo]

A next gen Colony Wars would make me sh*t my pants.

[MazzingerZ]

I just want to play all the exclusive games released this year, login to HOME and watch some in-game footage videos of FFXIII and Killzone 2...and why not? a teaser video of God of War 3

[master pain]

Legend Of Dragoon
Arc The Lad

ps3 needs more RPG's & those would be nice additions

[eddierivera]

Xenogears, Chrono Cros, Road Rash, Summoner, Grandia, all next gen, with new and improved graphics and gameplay.

[SixTwoTwo]

Alundra
Legend of Dragoon
Colony Wars

[Mcrmarcher]

A new Legacy of Kain would be fcuking epic!!!!

[odisho68]

i'd like to see more talk about kingdom hearts 3...final fantasy 7 would be great but we're already getting 13...i think twisted metal would be awesome and so would dark cloud 3, and legacy of kain...but i'm hoping for ico 2, shadow of the colossus 2 anddddd crash bandicoot

i want crash to be remade along with the older resident evils that came out for the gamecube, it would be cool to get MGS on the psn store too and some of the older final fantasy games like the original final fantasy 7

[YogiBear]

Twisted Metal: Black
Destruction Derby

Legacy of Kain would be sweet though

[LevDog]

David Jaffe already said there is gonna be a New Twisted Metal.. so you can take that off the list..

How about Revive Vigalante 8.. Then you can get crazy with it do like a TM vs V8..

[SlyGuy]

I used to love both games a great deal. TM2 is still my all time favourite even though Black came really close to being the best one.

Maybe they can do a graphical update of TM2 and sell it on PSN? The Psone version looks so grainy now lol.

[sandip787]

the ps3 doesnt need reviving anymore

a next gen G-police would be sickk though!

[masterofpwnage]

oh yeah starwars battlefront for the ps3 dam that will be hella sick

[OgTheClever]

Kingdom Hearts 3

[masterofpwnage]

yeah but we already kno there gonna make it how about something we dont kno like

starwars battlefront or dual hearts or harvestmoon for ps3.

[Mcrmarcher]

Yea starwars battlefront would be amazing, i think i read somewhere ages ago that a new one was in development, i remember there was some images as well but i have no idea were the magazine is now. Hope the new one will be good.

[Wolf873]

Those 2 series were amazing in every aspect. My only wish is to see Soul Reaver get another sequel or maybe perhaps get updated, and also to see Dino Crisis' definite sequel after the 2nd one to complete the story (or a remake). Dino-Crisis 3 was rather rubbish, and might I add Capcom's first betrayal to Sony when they didn't release the game on Playstation system where it had its origins and success in the first place.

[xionpunk]

For me you can narrow that list down to just three. Twisted Metal, FFVII (since i never finished it), and holy crap we need Legacy of Kain for sure. Raziel and Kain are badass.

[cockxxx]

The ps3 is to dead to be revived they should droop out off the console war imideatly so dey wont suffer eny further humiliation from the hands off the nintendo wii and there line off aaa games

[Chubear]

... lmao!! Nice joke.

[PS3ALLDAY122]

<-----------#3 has the same pic hahahahahaha

[SonySoldierEternaL]

the PS3 is perfectly fine as it is.

[Irishrocket69]

Remove the bag from over your head! obviously it is not. I know, I know SONY is beating the 360 in Japan. But it is just a small fraction of the pie buddy! And thanks for the homophobic e-mail! Bill and I got a good laugh, not as good a laugh as 2.40, but almost!

[PoSTedUP]

wow intelligence cube was madd hard yo. but please dont bring it back. bring back ROAD RASH 3D!!!!!!! HELLL YEAHHH SOn!!!!!!!

[juuken]

FFVII and Dino Crisis, yes!

[thehitman]

making a new twisted metal coming out next year.

[ongbakurhead]

Bushido Blade

[jollygoodchap8]

Not some mobile phone game, but a real full game.

[KidMakeshift]

I recommend getting I.Q. for the PSP. It's a japanese import but there's no text nor dialogue.

I'd like to see a revival of Parasite Eve (I think). I just like the idea of a survival-horrorish JRPG for next gen

[Mcrmarcher]

I didn't know so many people on here liked Lok so much, I thought i was the only one lol, im glad that so many people liked it, Legacy of kain FTW!!!

Also a new Hitman game would be killer (excuse the terrible pun) i heard they were making a new one but no more news has surfaced yet, i loved thinking of differen't ways to kill my intended targets.

[59fifty8]

marvel vs capcom 2, and ffvll

[theusedfake]

to see Jackal on ps3

it was one of my favorite nes games

[BlackIceJoe]

I am all for a new Jet Moto. Plus Dark Cloud 3 and a remake of FFVII.

I also would love to see a new vib-ribbon for the PS3.

[moujahed]

A next gen remake of "Xenogears" That would kick so much fawkin a$$... that and a brand new Zone of the Enders would rock aswell.

[Booyah]

i'd like to see a Chrono Trigger remake.... even tho the 3D remake was cancelled...

[Figboy]

the Mark of Kri, and a sequel, done in the same unique art style would be great.

personally, i'd like to see a Ghosthunter sequel, done PS3 style. that game was surprisingly good, and best of all, the main character was voiced by the guy who did Raphael on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon of the 80s. lol.

i'd also love to see a sequel to War of the Monsters. i remember getting the demo for it in an OPM issue, and out of boredom, took it over to my best friend's house at the time and we played that demo for 3 hours straight, having a frigging BLAST with it. when the game came out, we finally got the full version, and played the hell out of it. a next gen version would be heaven.

as for the list, we already know that Twisted Metal PS3 is in the works. it's been all but confirmed.

Dark Cloud 3 has been discussed by Level 5 on more than one occasion, and they would love to do a 3rd after finishing White Knight Story, and Rogue Galaxy 2. i wish i could find the interview where they talk about this.

as for Final Fantasy VII? Square-Enix KNOWS that they're sitting on a gold mine, and if i remember correctly, they vehemently denied that Final Fantasy XIII would be announced at E3 2006 or 2007, and what do you know, it WAS. the more they deny an FFVII remake, the more we should take it as "coming in the next three years." they don't want anything to interfere with their precious Fabula Crystalis Nova, or whatever it's called, so don't expect any scene-stealing FFVII announcements at this year, and even next years, E3. after FFXIII hits, however, i'd keep my ears open.

i'd also love a PSN version of the Incredible Crisis series. that game cracked me up, and i have it for the PS1, and an ebooted version for my PSP. such a fun, quirky Japanese title that could be enjoyed in short bursts, which makes it perfect for a portable AND a PSN title.

Sony has so many franchises that could be revived (ie, Alundra, Omega Boost, and Colony Wars), especially from the PS1 era, and i'm sure they are prepping a few for development as we speak.

[crippler666]

1) Chuckie Egg
2) Harvest Moon
3) Jet Set Willy
4) Earthworm Jim
5) Azure Dreams
6) Einhander
7) Parasite Eve
8) Medievil
9) Hogs Of War
10) Elite

Would like to see some of these getting the Next Gen treatment.

[Shane Kim]

All those great games. Why does the 360 only have Halo?? Must be me and my incompetent staff.
