Video Games that Need to be Revived
There are a few great games that are now forgotten. Vote for the one you think should be revived. Revived is used to imply that a video game needs more attention, should be remastered, or should be remade or ported.
Considered overrated by some gamers, but it truly isn't. I discovered this game when I first visited this site and immediately watched a walkthrough. To be honest, this game is epic. A sequel to the first Half-Life, Half-Life 2 revolutionized shooting games, along with Team Fortress 2. The performances were excellent, and the portrayal of female characters was one of the best. The physics were great for its time. Nowadays, newer gamers are more attracted to modern games (obviously). This game needs to be revived and deserves a larger community.
Valve's revolutionary cartoonish shooter holds a special place in many hearts. It was the predecessor to games like Fortnite, sharing a similar art style, though it is not a battle royale. Team Fortress 2 is a strong contender for the best shooting games of all time. It followed the amazing mod for Quake, Team Fortress, and its remake, Team Fortress Classic. Critically acclaimed and highly ranked on various best games of all time lists, it was released in 2007 with the Orange Box bundle, alongside Half-Life 2 and Portal. Later, it was sold individually and eventually made free-to-play, which increased revenues twelvefold. However, as time passed, players shifted to shooters like Call of Duty, Halo, and Battlefield. The community dwindled, but Valve's commitment kept the game popular. Still, player numbers have declined. This masterpiece needs to be revived.
Sure, Metroid Prime 4 is on its way, but what about Super Metroid? This one is the best in the franchise, and a remaster would certainly bring back memories.
People saying that the game doesn't need a remake gameplay-wise are just plain wrong. Keep an eye out for the first Super Metroid remake's hopefully eventual release. Needless to say, that fan game is already looking unbelievably great, like "putting AM2R to shame" great.
Amazing game. A very underrated shooter. It makes newer games look bad. The humor is epic, and the cartoonish vibe works well. The time-travel story sets it apart from other shooters. A Doom-like revival would bring back the franchise and shake up the industry.
Knights of the Old Republic is a really great Star Wars RPG. Reviving this game, which was one of the Platinum Hits on the Xbox, would be satisfying. Bioware recently made Anthem, which was disappointing. If Bioware cares about this game, they should probably remaster it. Please, no loot boxes.
This should be revived well, not like the newer, subpar Lego games.
You loved Mega Man X, admit it. The recent hit was Mega Man 11, and now is the time to take advantage of the situation and remake this fan-favorite game.
Sony brought back Ratchet and Clank, so why not Sly Cooper? Sly Cooper is a stealthy platformer where a raccoon named Sly leads a band of animal thieves. However, Sucker Punch was busy with the inFamous games and is now creating the samurai epic, Ghost of Tsushima, which is releasing this year. Can we hope to play as Sly after the development of Ghost of Tsushima? If it were to be remade, it would be a dream come true.
Sam Fisher can be called an icon of stealth. Splinter Cell offered some of the best stealth gameplay in video games, and the freedom to play in your own way was great. With Tom Clancy still being iconic in the industry, a Splinter Cell revival could give other games a run for their money.
I seriously want a new Splinter Cell game. Since the legacy of Tom Clancy still lives on, especially with the last excellent Rainbow Six game, I believe that Splinter Cell will return in a big way someday.
Recently, we got a remake for Resident Evil 2. Hopefully, Capcom is finally bringing back the franchise, and now is the time to revive Resident Evil 3: Nemesis. Sure, there were mixed reactions to this game, but it still maintained the same tense survival-horror atmosphere as the other games. Capcom should know that everyone has an appetite for more Resident Evil games.
The crazy, carefree platformer definitely needs to be revived. 2006's Nuts and Bolts was an atrocity, and now is the time to bring back the beloved franchise. Super Mario is still going strong, Crash Bandicoot has been revived, and Ratchet and Clank has returned, so what happened to Banjo-Kazooie? Reviving the franchise would certainly be a good decision.
Why only the third game on Nintendo Switch? They should have put the entire trilogy on here. And where is Pikmin 4?
