A big part of the problem for game makers is that once they've put in the work they need to find an audience to enjoy it. Doing this can cost more than you may think. Much more.

Snow and bugs are a big part of Capcom's shooter but money may be the most important ingredient of all.

Consider Lost Planet: Extreme Condition. Capcom recently said it had shipped more than a million copies worldwide of its snowy shooter for the Xbox 360. The game itself cost Capcom $20 million (£10.2 million) to make, and according to an article at Forbes.com the company spent another $20 million on getting the word out...
Resident Evil 2 2019 launches in a few short weeks and it looks, and plays, amazing. Capcom has taken the classic and renowned title and not only modernized the visuals but added new content to keep the experience fresh for veterans who played the original. But there are some games that deserve the same treatment from Capcom. Here are 5 games from Capcom that deserve the Resident Evil 2 2019 treatment.
Remasters are still popular so... yeah.
I personally like when there are remastered compilations. More than just remaking one game but to take a couple (or more) in a series and remake them as one nice compilation. Viewtiful Joe comes to mind. to have a full remake of all the games on one disc would be sweet.
I know many want to see Powerstone come back (as do I) but i'd go even deeper into their vault and bring back darkstalkers, cyberbots or even project justice / rival schools combo.
well for me there's
dino crisis
clock tower
haunting ground
resident evil 3
the whole onimusha series (except 4)
chaos legion
crimson tears
ring of red
Imagine Clock Tower done in a similar style to RE7 in first person with VR support.. that would be so so damn good.
This is a horrible list!
There are a load of titles far more deserving of a remaster than these picks. Seriously ! Dead Rising, Lost Planet and Dragons Dogma aren't even old games and have had recent sequels already!
Top of the list should be Dino Crisis,
I'll accept Resi 3 because I'm hoping that happens.
Clock tower and Haunting Ground are good choices too, It would be nice to be able to get them for a non extortionate rate.
Shadow of Rome was an amazing game and I'd love a remaster or new entry but I genuinely don't think they'd get away with it today unless it was massively toned down
Resident Evil 3 yes,Dino Crisis games?Yes.Onimusha 2 hell yes.never got to play Powerstone properly so yeah i would love to see it remade,others on that list i just dont care about.
Lost Planet: Extreme Condition was released in Europe in 2007 as an Xbox 360 exclusive, though it would later come to other systems as well. Aside from the regular version, a Collector’s Edition was made available, which includes an art book and a steel case, and early access to free multiplayer maps, as well as a soundtrack cd.
JP: Not every game receives massive critical acclaim. Yet, there are some titles that stick with you despite their lack of success. For me, Lost Planet: Extreme Condition is one of my most memorable multiplayer experiences of this generation.
