As a gamer who has spent countless hours immersed in the pixelated worlds of yesteryears, I can wholeheartedly attest to the timeless allure of those pre-2012 games that pushed the boundaries of technology and storytelling. The prospect of remakes revitalizes nostalgic memories, like finding an old photo album or a cherished childhood toy.
Games developed prior to 2012 are often hailed as timeless classics due to their compelling narratives, engaging gameplay, and innovative mechanics. During this period, developers were consistently testing the boundaries of technology, leading to a number of overlooked masterpieces in the gaming world. In recent times, remakes have become increasingly common among certain publishers. For instance, the renowned title Final Fantasy 7 was fully updated using modern technology, enhancing both its gameplay and storyline, while a revamped version of the classic game Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is also in the works.
Just as fans yearn for remakes of their beloved classic video games, completely revamping a game demands a significant financial investment and involves input from various parties. Lately, gaming enthusiasts on Reddit have been debating which titles are worthy of being remade if they were to win the Powerball jackpot.
The original Reddit post by user u/Random-reddit-name-1 posed a question to the community about which pre-2012 games they would want remade if they instantly won the Powerball lottery, worth its highest recorded amount of $2 billion. In particular, this user expressed interest in seeing Jade Empire, a 2005 game developed by BioWare, being remade. Given that the production budget for Star Citizen currently stands at $650 million, the proposed budget for this remake would be over three times that amount.
Among the popular responses, one frequently cited game is SSX Tricky, a snowboarding title released across multiple platforms in 2001. The mere mention of this game often stirs up feelings of nostalgia among gaming enthusiasts, with some recalling that they queued up at dawn for the PS2’s launch alongside it. Another frequently brought up title is Battlefield: Bad Company 2, which many believe to be the best Battlefield game ever produced. Developers Respawn have announced that the franchise will revisit its origins, leaving fans curious as to whether the new Battlefield installment will emulate its predecessors.
Additionally, some users brought up The Simpsons: Hit and Run, TimeSplitters 2, and the Prototype series developed by Insomniac Games’ team, alongside other notable mentions such as Golden Sun, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, and Black & White. However, it has been confirmed that Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Splinter Cell Chaos Theory are receiving remakes, with the latter focusing on the initial game in the franchise.
Beyond factors such as production costs and investor choices, re-made video games should possess the ability to generate income for creators and distributors. For instance, games similar to Concord (which is not a remake) unfortunately had to cease operations just two weeks after launching.
Although there’s a possibility that one of the games on the list could receive a remake in the near future, gamers may find themselves waiting for those games to be revamped or opting to play other titles to evoke nostalgia once more. It’s possible we might even see an Enter the Matrix remake on the horizon.
