Apache 2000: It would be cool if they ever re-did that one, the greatest rotor sim imo. New graphics, better flight characterisics, better sound, improved AI... Ah, now that would have been awesome.

Also Little Computer People would have been interesting, with the latest 3D and all that.

The ultimate remake that will never happen: Ultima IX. The whole game needs total re-writing, not only to weed out the bugs, but to make it more of an Ultima game than a Disney-ish theme park. The voice acting should be completly re-done, and the whole virtue thing needs to get a grip on itself. As it is, I'm almost embarrases to play such an over-the-top saint. Last, just mentioning the previous Ultimas casually does not make it, in itself, a sequel.

Rise of the Triad: I know it'd kill the "classic" appeal for some fans, but I reckon it deserves a remake/sequel more than Doom did.

ROTT's storyline, enemies, ridiculous guns, and such on a modern 3d engine would be pretty damned sweet.

Good call, k:
I've got a flight stick gathering dust. I used to be really into the Apache games. Wonderfully complex. I was never really into the flight sims except that one.

Anyone following the remake of XCOM; Also know as Project Xenocide?

I went to their site, but wasn't able to download anything. Checked their forums and they are still chugging along. Hope they don't abandon ship.

There are several x-com "remakes". UFO: alien invasion looks interesting (http://ufo.myexp.de) and X-Force too (http://www.xforce-online.de/about.php).

I would love to see a proper, modern FPS style remake of Wolfenstein 3D. I did find Dark Wolf
( http://darkbasic.thegamecreators.com...etro_view&i=65 ) but it didn't have the same levels, so it only counts as half a remake :angry: . Its still fun, but it wasn't what I was looking for.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein is going to be the closest you'll get to be honest.
