So I’ve been gaming since I was born, which in the grand scheme of things isn’t too long ago. My first memories were of playing with my Sega Megadrive, playing Mega Bomberman & James Pond (Google it). I’ve seen many games come and go and admittedly I wasn’t always as in tune with the gaming world as I am now. But one thing I’ve seen is a collection of games being remade in HD or even rebooted. So in honour of the games that went out swinging, I’d like to present to you my list of games that I want to see remade.
Nintendo's classic action-adventure game, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, is set to receive a fanmade port for the Sega Dreamcast.
Gary Green said: Being a writer exclusively for PlayStation is immensely rewarding, yet it does have its drawbacks. It was easy enough to distance myself from the ever decreasing number of Xbox exclusives, yet parting ways with Nintendo was hard, and it only got harder over time. Sooner or later, I knew I'd be back, and as I frantically search for the most efficient and cost-effective ways to play the Nintendo classics which I've missed out on over the years, revisiting the best of the best comes first.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time came out during a time where every console had its charms. Whether you were team Sega, Nintendo, or Sony, everyone knew the game's potential, and the players who invested in Nintendo's chunky N64 console were not disappointed. Like Sega's ill-fated Saturn, it may have been a console which lacked in quantity of games, but the quality was certainly there.
Ocarina of Time was a game that was hard to put down. We would bounce home excitedly from high school, ready to wander the lands of Hyrule once again to find another secret or two, before preparing ourselves to tackle that next intimidating dungeon. It's time to retell this story. Ready your ocarina.
Yes, this is one of the true masterpieces that I believe every core gamer should play.
It even holds up to this day.

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.
Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.
The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.
I really enjoyed Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning but I'd prefer to see a sequel rather than a remake, on current gen consoles and PC.
Populous The Beginning, i'll wish for a remake of that game until the day I die
Also Final Fantasy 8, everyone else wishes for FF7, I personally preferred 8
Hogs of War :D
Crimson Skies, KOTOR with new cinematics and everything (a full remake), Grandia series, Gradius (with full 3D support), Onimusha....oh that's BloodBorne.
Soul Reaver, yes! That would be the dream. Amalur deserves a sequel, but I would buy it again if they went on the remake route. Add a little bit of challange (a hard mode, maybe?) and it could be one of my favorite games ever!
