Oooh.

UFO: Enemy Unknown.

Keep it exactly the same.
But have the option to play from the Aliens side.

A whole new world of Alien fun would be within our grasp.
Unless they've done that already?
I've only played up to the underwater version.
But that would be awesome.

Unless it's for a hand held, no one's gonna leave it looking exactly the same.

I meant in terms of how you played the game, building a base, sending out alien ships on a planet with the options to terrorise cities, destroy farm-like areas or intercept patrolling aircraft and attack human bases...pretty much do everything the human side of things tries so hard to stop. And of course with research and such, into new weapons and possibly into human culture? Could be an interesting point of view to take things on, which then leads to the development of more efficient ways to kill people & effectively take over the planet n_n

The looks side of things would be a whole different story.
Though even on the old graphics, Chrysallids had the ability to scare me senseless.
I can just imagine the scene of one breaking out of a person if we had better graphics to work with...I'm sure it'd have to be censored xD

A remake of Jack the Nipper 2: In Coconut Capers would be sweet.

I got one woth remaiking: Terra Nova: Strike Force Centauri. Even by today's standards that game is still a great one - the map area is huge. NOt ot mention the options game gives you. with a bit better in game graphics the game would totally rock. although cerain weapon effect were fantastic back then when it came out. the rail gun, the diruptor fire, the smoke...

also they should add some more options in remake like driving one of those spacecrafts like in Halo.

Good call. I liked the booster jump aspect of the game and the mix of strategy and FPS.

I'm trying to think of a game that is close today. I guess Halo is close, but it doesn't really have a stealth component or the strategy like Terra Nova. And games like SOCOM and Counterstrike are too contemporary. Something in between.

Maybe a remake of Starship Troopers - and NOT that pathetic, ham-n-egger movie! I'm talking about the book with the squads of bouncing troops leaping in the air like Hulk in power armor with missles, lasers and fire pills and cool s*** like that!

Starsiege tribes or tribes or something like that is sort of a close one. i think i read that.

also i liked the drones idea where you can scout ahead and either put it on manual or drive it yourself.

I dont' know about Halo 2 but Halo 1 was so painfully boring (the second part) that i had to force my self to play it to the finish. the first part is promising though... but later it's like they were in a hurry and Copy & paste was a major tool to the map developers. plus the squad idea had bigger potential there.
