Remakes

[T.G. Oskar]

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.

OB:MotBQ is the starter one, but I consider Tactics Ogre (Let Us Cling Together) as the superior game, if only because it's a pretty darn complex Tactical RPG where options matter. Then again, they DID re-release TO on the PSP.

FFVI needs a next-gen remake. I mean, there's next-gen models for the main characters of every pre-FFVII game... Though, they'd need to rework the story a bit: maybe expand a bit on Kefka's descent into evil, a bit of all the character's stories, and expand on the World of Ruin (FFVI and RS3 were good precursors on open-world games; there's NO excuse right now with WRPGs essentially taking it to near-perfection).

Speaking of RS3 and remakes...SaGa Frontier is a great game, but THE game they have to remake AND release into the West is Romancing SaGa 3. IMO, it was a game that was too ahead of its time; I dare say that I'd compare it to Dragon Age: Origins, if only because DA perfected what RS3 tried to do. THEN, and only then, I would seek a SaGa Frontier remake.

As for other remakes...hmm, tough one. There's extended editions of Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale, but no extended editions of Neverwinter Nights; maybe Beamdog is overdue for a remake? Then again, there's Sword Coast Legends, so a bit tough to remake the game to work a bit more like NWN II... Maybe have a company take Suikoden from Konami and make the first three games into a remade trilogy? Suikoden I was nice, Suikoden II was better in nearly every aspect, and Suikoden III was...innovative, to say the least.

Oh yeah, and to have Harebrained Studios release a cheap campaign remaking the SNES, Genesis and Sega CD versions of Shadowrun. The UGE that some fans are trying to do is kinda stuck.
