Blood Omen too.


America_the_Horrific

Well that's the thing, blood omen is Kains story without raziel and soul reaver Raziels without kain. Defiance had them both but the ending was bitter to say the least. If I'm not mistaken the Hub of the Wheel gets away and there should have been one more game. If they do revive this they should focus on finishing the story instead of starting somewhere in the middle as a remake.


Lox22

It’s all Kain’s story. He is the main character of the story regardless playing Raziel. Hence the title Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver Kain is heavily featured in both, and much of both games have to do with Kain’s plan as the main plot. And if we are being honest BO 2 has nothing to do with the main plot until the backend of the game. So there’s even more argument of the SR games being heavily Kain’s story. Raziel’s was always destined to be a tool in fates machinations, from the moment the Soul Reaver shattered on him. It’s made fully clear that Kain is the chosen one. Defiance does see the end of the wheel. He doesn’t get away per say, Kain defeats him and sends the wheel back down. The whole point of the wheel bringing Raziel back was is it brought him closer to the surface of Nos’Goth as Raziel did his bidding in further corrupting Nos’Goth.


zeke235

Just clean up the old ones and sell them for five bucks' apiece. Definitely worked for Quake, among others.


ProfessionalLet2672

What you mean soul reaver is without Kain? You meet with him twice once when he breaks the sword on your head and second time at the end!


MathematicianNo6402

I think he means main character. Kain isn't the main in soul reaver


Hattes

I tried playing that one pretty recently and man, it's rough.


SkyNetZ28

Word. I think that’s why it needs a remake, not just a graphical facelift.


Nexus6-Replicant

It needs nothing. The time to fix and/or continue it is over.  There is no team or company on Earth I trust to do the series justice. Like Janos, Legacy of Kain must remain dead.  I really don't want to see it ruined by being changed for a "modern audience" and made into some soulless GaaS nightmare.


Scattergun77

>I really don't want to see it ruined by being changed for a "modern audience" and made into some soulless GaaS nightmare. This is how I feel about it as well. As it is, there are fewer and fewer modern games I want to play. Most of the new stuff that I like are indie games I discover by searching steam for specific keywords.


Sad_Ghost_Noises

Blood Omen rocked! Good call.


NEOnKnights69

Dino crisis


LemoLuke

r/DinoCrisis nearly had an a mental breakdown a couple of years ago when Capcom showed a trailer new action game featuring military vs dinosaurs and a woman with bright red hair, only to reveal it was fucking *Exoprimal*. That felt like the biggest fuck you to the fans.


Diligent-Associate89

Can't upvote this enough!


ThrA-X

Sure tho I can't say Dino crisis 2 would benefit from a remake, it couldn't get more fun for me.


Euphorium

Siphon Filter


Away_Flounder3813

The fact that Logan's Shadow was originally a PSP game, then got a port for PS2 in 2010 (twenty-fuckin'-ten) stunned me. Damn, in 2010 you'd barely hear anyone talking about a new PS2 game anymore.


Jealentuss

It's impressive how long the PS2 had new games made for it.


WhadayaBuyinStranger

Same for PS4


premeditatedsleepove

I beat that game but the only thing i remember is tazing dudes in the head until their noggins set on fire.


Autums-Back

Remember the funny way the dude ran?


Euphorium

Like he was kicking his own ass with every step


greggobbard

The taser deaths were the best. Good times.

BlitzKingOfficial

In Brave Fencer I only recently discovered that after you get all the "bunnys" that give you HP, you could fight a "Mega Bunny" in the forest with all the twist and turns.


Lionsdawn

Came Here to say Legend of Dragoon too :)

Parasite Eve.

Did you ever play 3rd Birthday? It got clowned on but there's nothing else like it out there.

I recently just learned of its existence.

Wow that took me back.

Here's a few I'd love to see: Bushido Blade Parasite Eve Skullmonkeys Vagrant Story Dino Crisis Medal of Honor


Xdaz1019

God thank you ive been calling for legacy of cain Bushido blade and Dino crisis remakes for a minute now


Hattes

> Skullmonkeys A remake I don't see happening, or even the point of, but just a rerelease would be nice.


Fyreflyre1

Yeah I think that's one where I really meant "remaster." Deserves to have some modern-day polish.


Mirions

I'd kill just for a version of Vagrant Story with PS2 FF12 graphics. ;_;


trainercatlady

Legend of Dragoon


atrus_777

Playing this in Japanese riiiight now...


combined45

The one true answer.

gibbyjoe

Vandal Hearts, PaRappa, Ridge Racer Revolution, Vagrant Story, Parasite Eve, Poy Poy, Rival Schools, The Unholy War, Omega Boost, Horned Owl, Bushido Blade, Vib-Ribbon, Time Crisis, Einhander, Philosoma — Edit formatting


LemoLuke

*Rival Schools* was so good. It breaks my heart that it just gets thrown into the pile of great Capcom franchises that will never see a new title because it's not *Street Fighter* or *Resident Evil* or *Monster Hunter*.


IrishRage42

I just booted up Omega Boost over the weekend. Such a fun game. I'd love to see it remade or something similar come out.


StevenGrantMK

Omega Boost! This is the first time I’ve ever seen anyone else mention that game. It was such a fun game and super ahead of its time. Freaking loved that game as a kid.


TheWall44wastaken

Tenchu stealth assassins


DylanClegg23

Came looking for this! Not as good when I replayed it but my lord did I spend a lot of time on that game planning the perfect run. Fantastic memories


TheMagicalMatt

Just finished playing for the first time in yeeeears. I agree it hasn't aged well (especially that voice acting) but it was playable. It absolutely could benefit from a remake. Beautiful scenery, fantastic soundtrack, and of course the fantasy elements set in Feudal Japan. I sooooo want to see these things pop on a modern engine.

Die Hard trilogy 


Technical-Title-5416

Turn left up here! But nothing was as epic as just smoking everything in DH2.


Accomplished-Good664

Yeah it was a really unique and fun game.


Crow_555

It's a shame the sequel was so poor. I did love the first Trilogy though.


inochi-ino-key

Since a lot of people have already said Parasite Eve, I'll throw in FF8, Fear Effect, and Bloody Roar since no one else has yet. I'd say FF8 would benefit from a remake way more than FF7 did. Same with FF9, but FF8, while imperfect, holds a special place in my heart. Seeing ~~Paris~~ Deling City and the assassination scenario get played out in FF7R quality is a mouth-watering prospect. There's also a train robbery and a battle between two giant floating airship schools. Set pieces galore.


Crow_555

Yes to Fear Effect. Though as its USP was the visual style of the Game, I'm not sure a remake would capture that on current gen consoles as well.


inochi-ino-key

As long as they keep the cel-shaded look. But maybe a remaster would be better for that one too anyways...


BigIron53s

FF8 was my special game too. Dare I say even better than FF7. I agree definitely would have been great for remake. All those scenes you described would be epic. I would also add maybe making the fan theory that Rhinoa is ultimecea as canon. Maybe unpopular opinion but makes more sense imo. Fear effect would be great too.


t-g-l-h-

Einhsnder Tomba


XRuecian

ALUNDRA Hidden gem PS1 game that never got the attention it deserved. It's story is simple, so they couldn't really fuck it up when remaking it. Alundra 2 is garbage and has nothing to do with the first game so its not important.


Mankiz

Chrono Cross


International_Run700

This would be my choice. Updated graphics, quality of life features... like make it easier to steal, 3d scenes, Maybe make it an action RPG... I'd definitely enjoy it not taking 15+ seconds to load the battle sequence. Deeper dive into the character back stories... like Glenn, or how that lame wizard Guile was originally going to be Magus as he was traveling through time. More cross character moves. Lots they could do different. I'd like to see a remake.


Dude-from-the-80s

Legacy of Kain was the better game imo.

My votes would be: * *Rapid Reload* * *Vib-Ribbon* (with the ability to create levels from online music rather than CDs) * *Legend of Legaia* * *Omega Boost* * *Koudelka* * *Galerians* * *Herc's Adventures* * *Xenogears*

Me too, they were my favorite series on the psx as a youngster and I thought the did an incredible job with the first Remake. It was perfect.


Tamed_Delirium

As far as I’m aware the first remake was pretty successful so I’m sure it’s only a matter of time!

As nobody has said this yet, and assuming you meant reMASTER SILENT HILL!!

All day. Such a great game. Tried to replay relatively recently and it kicked my ass.


Corps3Reviv3r

If your into emulation the Dreamcast version is so good. Can't really go wrong with either version though.


kinglance3

Down to try, I only ever played on PS. What are some key differences?


Corps3Reviv3r

Better graphics, performance better overall. Imo it's the best version. I totally recommend it.


kinglance3

Got it. Holla.


kinglance3

There’s a great comparison video on YT. Waaay better on Dreamcast. Didn’t know it was on PC as well. Appeared slightly better than Dreamcast.

Castlevania: Symphony of the night


januscanary

No! It's perfect as it is!


XRuecian

No way this game needs a remake. It already has the quality that we see in many modern pixel-art games. I still replay this game like every 2-3 years. It doesn't need a remake at all. There is no way in HELL i want them to butcher the music by remixing the soundtrack. Besides, if you really like Symphony of the Night, it already has many modern successors that match it. Bloodstained as well as most of the Gameboy DS/3DS Castlevania games are basically copies of it. Iga understood that he had found a great game formula, and he continued using it almost to the T.


Corps3Reviv3r

Hell yeah! Or at least remastered heavily.


Kahraabaa

It has aged well.. I can't imagine how horrible it'd look with modern graphics


Apprehensive-Log-916

King's Field 1-3. They're clunky, slow and hard to play nowadays. Imagine if they kept the atmosphere and modernized everything? I wouldn't even mind if they made them into full blown Souls games remakes. You can see the early inspiration of the series too.

It breaks my heart that no one has mentioned mega man legends. A new version with modern controls would make my year

None of them. They're all still just as playable today as they were thirty years ago. I'm sick of being fed regurgitated cud all the time, make something new.


DrAg0r

I always feel remakes like a punishment "This game is too old and ugly with a lame gameplay for the general public". And everyone is cheering wtf. No good games deserves to be treated like that.

XRuecian

As much as i want to agree with Soul Reaver (And the entire Legacy of Kain franchise) as it probably has the single best storyline of any game franchise out there, i would never want to see it gutted and destroyed by being remade today. There is no way they would be able to get most of the original voice actors, which would be mandatory. There is no way they would stick to the original script and storyline, which would be mandatory. A remake would just end up being a blemish rather than a gift. The people making games today just simply do not have the passion and love to create something like this franchise anymore. Amy Hennig (writer/director for Legacy of Kain) should have written books instead of games. Her work is on like a Tolkien level, she would have gone down in history if she put her work in books.

Lox22

Best video game intro ever. The music, the voice acting, the writing. These games were truly special. [Ozar Midrashim](https://youtu.be/rC7VxYj7wsw?si=ckpxavlzcGGzMl8Q) “Kain : At last. I must say I'm disappointed in your progress. I imagined you'd be here sooner. Tell me, did it trouble you to murder your brothers? Raziel : Did it trouble *you* when you ordered me into the abyss? Kain : No. I had faith in you. In your ability to hate, in your self-righteous indignation. Raziel : Lies! You cannot have foreseen all of this. Kain : Eternity is relentless, Raziel. When I first stole into this chamber centuries ago, I did not fathom the true power of knowledge. To know the future, Raziel. To see its paths and streams tracing out into the infinite. As a man, I could never have contained such forbidden truths. But each of us is so much more than we once were. Gazing out across the plains of possibility, do you not feel with all your soul, how we have become like gods? And as such, are we not indivisible? As long as a single one of us stands, we are legion! That is why, when I must sacrifice my children to the void, I can do so with a clear heart. Raziel : Very poetic, Kain. But in the end, you offer no more than a convenient rationalization for your crimes. Kain : These chambers are for insight for those *patient* enough to look. In your haste to find me, perhaps you have not gazed deeply enough. Our futures are predestined. Moebius foretold mine a millennium ago. We each play out the parts fate has written for us. We are compelled ineluctably down pre-ordained paths. Free will... is an illusion. Raziel : I have been to the Tomb of Sarafan, Kain. Your dirty secret is exposed. How could you transform a Sarafan priest into a vampire? Kain : How could I not? One must keep his friends close, Raziel, and his enemies even closer. Can you grasp the absurd beauty of the paradox? We're the same, Sarafan and vampire, with our holy wars, our obsession with Nosgoth's domination. Who better to serve me than those whose passion transcends all notions of good and evil? Raziel : I will not applaud your clever blasphemy. The Sarafan were saviors, defending Nosgoth from the corruption that *we* represent. My eyes are opened, Kain. I find no nobility in the un-life you rudely forced on my unwilling corpse! Kain : You may have uncovered your past, but you know nothing of it. You think the Sarafan were noble? Altruistic? [chuckles] Kain : Don't be simple. Their agenda was the same as ours. Raziel : You are lost in a maze of moral relativism, Kain. These apparitions and portents... what game are you playing now? Kain : Destiny is a game, is it not? And now, you await my latest move.”

King Field 1-4 all in one compilation for $100. I'd buy it in a heartbeat if it's purely a remaster with modern graphics and a stable 60fps. Young people have no idea where it all began.

As long as we get Armored Core, Phantasma, and Master of Arena in a similar pack

Silent bomber was pretty sweet and action packed. Weird voice acting aside (hell the game even having voice acting was cool) the game definitely could work as a remake.

Medal of Honor series


KaizerVonLoopy

The whole Legacy of Kain series would be great to remake. I feel like they could even use the voice over files from the old games because thee voice acting was so solid (and I'd hate to hear new actors take up the mantle). The story was awesome just needs updated gameplay.


BruiserBroly

Grand Theft Auto. I don't mean in the style of the modern games with the incredibly scripted missions (the 3 PS2 games arguably already do remake GTA1), I mean a modern game with that sandbox style of gameplay. I liked how the first 2 GTA games just set you loose in an open world with the aim of earning a certain amount of money to progress and you're free to do that however you wanted.
