For example, for me, I would *love* a new Populous game based from what was done in Populous 3. That, and a new SimCity based on SimCity 4!

There hasn't really been a good vehicular combat game in awhile, like Vigilante 8 or Twisted Metal

I also noticed there haven't really been any good couch party games besides Mario party; think Crash Bash, Pokemon stadium, fusion frenzy, and the like.

Disciples, the 2 is still one of my favorite games. The 3 was crap

+1 for Populous.

But my answer to this every time is Red Faction (1, specifically. While I did enjoy Guerrilla, I want to see a throw back to more fully destructible environments on next gen tech).

arc the lad 2 twilight of spirits. Not the arc the lad series but the stories and themes explored in the particular game 2

[–] Schtefanz@feddit.org 2 points 2 months ago

Bully 2 would be great

MAG from the PS3.

Tabula Rasa. It was a first/third person sci fi mmo shooter/rpg with craftable mechs, It lasted for a bit more then a year before it shut down, and no private servers have ever been created.

Gundam : Universal Century Online. Picture Star Wars Galaxies with combined arms mecha warfare. Start on foot, buy a jetpack, mine some ore, built a tank/jet/mech, fight in the war. It lasted about as long as tabula rasa before it shut down. It currently has no private server.

Firefall. First/third person sci fi mmo shooter/rpg with craftable mech suits. bla blah, shut down no private server ever created.

tl/dr: I want a new mech mmo. Or even just to be able to play my old favorite mecha mmos.

Not "revived" since it's still going, but I wish the mega man series would modernize. It's 2024, I get side scroller was megaman's thing but how I would love a modern, ratchet and Clank style platformer/open world where you go to different parts of the city to fight the different robots. But Capcom and most Japanese game companies are insanely opposed to modernizing and of making their games look current. Graphics wise they're always outdated

Strange Adventures in Infinite Space

I'd like them to give 'Z' (Bitmap Brothers) another go.

CyberMage: Darklight Awakening

Panzer Dragoon. I only played and finished Panzer Dragoon Orta for the XBox when it came out. I tried the included original game, but I had a hard time telling depth and perception with the old graphics.

Dark Cloudy, but it should be built around city building a bit more than combat

[–] Katana314@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I'd really like to see another time-based drama similar to The Last Express. It had a lot of time-based events where you could run into particular passengers of the train in the hallways, and gained a strong sense of physical "presence" as people pushed past you in the halls using detailed rotoscope animations.

The Invisible Hours comes close - it's non-interactive, basically letting you play as a ghost cameraman watching the mystery.

Cyberstadium Series: Basewars.

Sure, it was only 1 game, so maybe not a series, but as the name suggests, it was meant to be a series.

Tokyo Xtreme Racer

And thankfully, they just released a teaser for a new one so I guess my wish is going to be granted!
