im tired of these FREAKING fps an mmo games

REALLY???

[distorted_reality]

Great list.

Never played Boogerman though. Carmageddon would be freaking awesome. Can just imagine the outrage lol.

[granthinds]

Nah, no outrage. We're too far past Manhunt :P

[distorted_reality]

Hehe, I don't know, Carmageddon had it's own special type of carnage. Tbh I think it was a more mindlessly violent game than Manhunt, can you imagine if it was remade in full HD?

[Relientk77]

Definitely agree with Earthworm Jim

I want a new:

Legend of Dragoon
Medievil
Oddworld
Breath of Fire
Brave Fencer Musashi
Ogre Battle/Tactics Ogre
Grandia
Dark Cloud

Syphon Filter
Beyond Good & Evil
Timesplitters

[Hellsvacancy]

Wonder Boy
Shinobi
Desert Strike
Road Rash

[Inception]

Great list mate, bubles for you. I also want Shinobi. The last one i played is Kunoichi / Nightshade in PS2. Come on SEGA, i want to play again as Joe Musashi!

[prettyboy1]

ooooooooooooh yes!grandia and dark cloud remakes would deffinitely be welcomed in my arms

[Urrakia34]

OMG Killer Instinct please!!! Street Fighter came back and now Mortal Kombat, so why not Killer Instinct?

[distorted_reality]

Street Fighter never went away though, same with MK to a lesser extent. KI has been MIA for years now, and it would a hard ask to bring it back.

edit @ below - yeah, it could be great if handled properly.

[Urrakia34]

Well I know they never went away but you must admit that they did become irrelevant at one point but with the new releases they seem to be recapturing their original popularity. Agreed, it'd be difficult to bring it back but well worth it dont you think?

[Lamarthedancer]

I wouldn't mind if Streets of rage got a sequel or Conker

[dontfeedjay]

I would love to see another legacy of kain game come out. I want to see how that story finally plays out, especially since I have been in since the original.

[Bathyj]

Yes please.

Raziel was good, but a propery topdown action rpg like Blood Omen woud rock.

[MWH]

i second.

[Bathyj]

Tenchu and Manhunt Please

[Relientk77]

Tenchu is awesome

[thebudgetgamer]

i would like to see the bards tale return.
