Love the work Nightdive Studios is doing at modernizing old games like Blood Fresh Supplies
What's the biggest challenge a company like Nightdive Studio faces when they want to remaster cult classics like System Shock 2?

RaidenBlack604d ago

Absolutely love their work! Both their original releases and their remaster works.
Out of all the classic game engines, they've worked on, which engine caused the most head scratches?
We know they'll remaster both NOLFs ... the simple question here is: when?
Also, are they considering remastering Monolith's other hit FP games like Blood II, Condemned and/or especially F.E.A.R 1? As in, are they considering remastering any early LithTech based games?

TheProfessional604d ago (Edited 604d ago )

+1 for Condemened and Fear. Also AVP 1 and 2 or the original Unreal remasters would be incredible! Happy there are some other fans of these classics here.

RaidenBlack604d ago

oh yea!
Unreal 1 & 2 + if possible, maybe atleast UT1 would be awesome!
Dunno if Epic will let them .... but who knows?
There are so many other classics I want them to remaster & preserve ...

RaidenBlack604d ago (Edited 604d ago )

But actually, I left my top one out, only because I want a proper Remake from either id or Machinegames and that's Return to Castle Wolfenstein, (one of the best FPS ever made, & in GmanLives's words : "RTCW is so manly that your body is literally creating more testosterone when you're playing it.")
There are so many other low-key classics as well I want them to remaster & preserve down the line ... like Novalogic's Black Hawk Down has one of the lowest chances ... but if they can + with slightly improved gunplay that'd too sweet!
(and other titles which I am definitely forgetting)
Oops, forgot Soldier of Fortune I & II

Ninver604d ago

Ooh thumbs up for bringing up F.E.A.R 1 we need a remake

RaidenBlack603d ago

Definitely!
And thank the indies, that Trepang2 exists!

Petebloodyonion604d ago

Another one
Can we hope for Blood2 the Chosen remake?

TheProfessional604d ago (Edited 604d ago )

Dear Nightdive,
Is there any update on Sin Reloaded? Also are Soldier of Fortune 1&2, Blood 2 The Chosen, Shadows of the Empire or Messiah remasters a possibility? Thank you!

Petebloodyonion604d ago

Played the hell out of the original Sin MP.
Still remember the layout of the Sin city map and CTF bank map.
Use to make the game lag by planting tons of remote mines behind the flag and making them explode as ppl used to jump in the mines while taking the flag.
Good time!

RaidenBlack604d ago

ahh yes ... SOF 1 & 2 ... big fan!

Speed Factor Review – Arcade Asphalt Meets Punk Rock Chaos |GLG

Speed Factor throws players straight into a neon-lit highway of nostalgia, where punk rock riffs and pixel-perfect visuals collide in a furious symphony of speed. Inspired by the golden age of 80s and 90s arcade racers, this game invites you to tear through 50 diverse tracks across five vibrant locations, each brimming with retro flair. From customising traction assists to upgrading classic rides, Speed Factor is more than a race; it’s an adrenaline-fueled journey through the heart of arcade rebellion, demanding both skill and swagger from every driver who dares to take the wheel.
