I thought about this for a while. I would like to see a remake of Metal Gear. But only a graphics upgrade and some good voice acting. Bolster the script and put more meat on it's bones, but don't screw with what made the game a franchise. It all started with 1, it was all about 1 for 3 games. The 3rd game was made in request for a proper sequel to 1. I would want it to be top-down, fixed camera, 6-8 buttons, including Up, Down, Left, Right. That's a huge part of what made those first 2 games brutally, prickishly, "I own a milk crate full of busted NES contollers" hard. An assholian brand of difficulty and frustration unlike almost any other. Those are two games I can say are perfect just the way they are, but NES graphics and music is brutal. I used to play with the volume down, still do after about 30 minutes on any game. It gets annoying. So it could use a makeover, not a rewrite or reboot. And make it even harder. Make that dog at the start rush you every time, just to mess with rookies until they learn how to kill a dog. It's a good learning experience in the long journey ahead of them.

It's their own fault for messing with their own storyline and canon. Since Solid 1, the games have been brutally easy (due to advanced control). MGS1 was a perfect all-round game with the best storyline of them all. Since MGS2, they gone so far off the rails with it, it'll never come back. They compromised consistency for the sake truly irrelevant things that didn't even improve the games, characters, or storyline. I feel changing the best of the games to be more like the worst (at least storyline wise) is a counter productive step for the franchise. How could they rightly go ****ing with the origins of the franchise? 1, 2, and Solid all lined up, and they are the best games. I wouldn't look forward to Konami ****ing them up any time soon.


I want to see a Square classics line. Again, not ****ed with, enhanced. The greats don't need tuning. First and foremost, XENOGEARS. This game didn't get to realize it's potential to be the best game ever made. It has the best storyline in any game I've ever played, hands down, and that's saying a lot.
Ogre Battle: March of The Black Queen. Excellent game that could use a graphics upgrade, some new classes, monster units, and stages.
FF1-8 & Tactics. Would be great to play these games with fresh experience and feel with new secrets and upgrades. Remaster the best of the franchise, reminding people there was greatness once, before IX and the Enix era.
Secret of Mana. I call it Zelda done properly. Great game that would benefit from from new graphics.
Saga Fontier is another game the average RPG fan is oblivious to. Marvel of video gaming, and a prime example of Squaresoft's groundbreaking, innovative work in the genre.

There's so many Square classics that have become dated. And although still better than most newer games, they could reach a broader audience if they looked and sounded better.

Also, Rock & Roll Racing. This game you could fully reboot. Keep the fundamentals, add more vehicles, worlds, racers, weapons and upgrades for each vehicle, customization and tuning options, and make a career mode rather than just a single season before beating it. This game would do extremely well in the online era as well.
