What Amiga games would you like to see remade today on a current system? Which current system would you like to see them released on and why?
For me many Amiga games should never be remade as the original versions are perfect as they are and any updates to the graphics or control system would ruin the balance of the game or how it originally felt and played. But there are definitely many Amiga games that would equally lend themselves well to a remake or sequel.
For me the biggest game I am still hoping to see a sequel that is more closely a remake than a true sequel is Frontier: Elite 2. Yes, there was a kind of sequel on the PC just after Frontier, but it wasn't all that different and most didn't think it was as good. Imagine how a true remake of Frontier could be created with current PC technology. They keep saying it is in the planning stages of a sequel, but that has been stated for many years now. I just hope that if they do eventually create a new Elite, that it will stick closely to the style and game play ideas of Frontier, but expand on them much more, giving the ability to leave your ship and roam space stations and planets, as well as some form of true interaction with in game characters.
Another game I would love to see a remake of is ShadowWorlds. I loved that game and the way it used dynamic lighting throughout the game. A remake of that would be great. It would probably lend itself to a hi-def console release more than a PC release though.
