What other classic era games could be remastered?

[Tilarta]

I looked up the games that are/were remastered and they are all from Eidos Interactive, being remastered by Aspyr.
So if the condition is that Aspyr can only remaster games produced by Eidos, does that mean there is a limit to the number of classic era remasters this company can produce?

I was hoping that other games of the era that did not belong to Eidos might also be remastered, but since the game I want a remaster for most was owned by Psygnosis, that means Aspyr can not be contracted to work on that game.

I saw some bad words in that article:
Nintendo Switch Subscription.
I am not really a fan of sub2play rental plans like that one.

So could it be that Nintendo wants more people to sub to get access to those games?
Me personally, I tried to buy Metroid Zero Mission (GBA) with my money that I have, but learned I had to sub to play the game digitally,

No more SEGA for me, SEGA died today to me.

To clarify, I was wrong, games still playable at Steam, it was the other launcher that is not working (that for some reason still exists within the library) so SEGA did not pull an Ubisoft move removing the games from people library, it was my mistake combined with the article and for that I am very sorry.

I doubt it will happen but having some of the old Indiana Jones games get remastered would be cool.

Infernal Machine was a nice if janky Tomb Raider clone.

Few years older when I played Legacy of Kain: Defiance ;)

Classic Marathon. We got the Aleph One versions ported to Steam but we also need System Shock R style full remakes of all 3 main games, Pathways into Darkness and the fan WAD Marathon Eternal. Either by Saber who did Halo 1+2 Anniversary before Tomb Raider RE but Night Dive is the most likely one as they've had experience with the aforementioned System Shock R.

Blinx the Time Sweeper & Blinx 2: Battle of Time & Space. The fact they didn't get a PC port like Halo is criminal

Quantum Redshift: Ditto

Shadow the Hedgehog Uncensored/Uncut. Sonic X Shadow Generations proves we all want this and I've wanted a PC version with both English Dub & Windii Subs options since 2006 (Shadow is the only Sonic game whose English dub isn't s.hite. Especially an Xbox & PC version with the little censorship it did get destroyed.

Sonic P-06 official with story mode & Windii subs for JP voices as default

Freespace 1+2

Descent Trilogy

Lego Racers 1+2 PC

Sesame Street Search & Learn with Sherlock Hemlock

Pro Pinball: The Web

All GBA Sonic games with Windii translations

Sonic Rush 1+2 (ditto)

All five Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time games

All 3 Classic Prince of Persia games, their 2.5D remakes and Mega CD & SFC ports

Mirror's Edge 1, expanded to Rhianna Pratchett's original vision

Nightcaster: Defeat the Darkness. See Blinx and Quantum Redshift

Strife, done Marathon & System Shock R style

Polaris SnoCross PC with Point Defiance soundtrack

Both Alice games

Carve Jet Ski Racing (same as the other OG Xbox games above)

Tony Hawk's Underground 1+2 plus Remix content (ditto)

Dark Summit (need I repeat myself?)

Mechassault 1+2 (you know the drill)

DK Children's Encyclopdia with the white flying navigator. Hours of fun messing around flying all over the world map.

Mission Kellogs. Imagine Super Donkey Kong but a lot more fun and on PC.

Sonic R (expanded to have more tracks and use both PC & Saturn graphics combined)

Burning Rangers (ditto but similar idea to NiGHTS). Imagine Power Rangers meets Fireman Sam

PC port of Another Code Recollection

Rama

Splinter Cell 1-4 with PS2 & GBA SC1 and OG Xbox Double Agent as extras

Conker's Bad Fur Day Uncensored (controls dialog based on Rare Replay version)

Perfect Dark XBLA version ported to PC

Goldeneye XBLA fully finished & ported to PC

Ultima series, made much less obnoxious & frankly boring to play (Ultima 2 onward) with the Underworld games getting the same controls glowup as System Shock Enhanced Edition

King's Field series (JP versions only) plus the King's Field 1 remake

Akumajou Dracula X: Rondo of Blood

Akumajou Dracula X Chronicles

Akumajou Dracula X: Nocturne in the Moonlight. Based on Saturn version, fan translation for english subs when JP voices are selected, PSP English dub & subs to match when English voices are selected.

Earthworm Jim 3D PC

Rayman 2 Revolution (specifically that version)

[EF_Neo1st]

RARE or Nintendo (or both, I dont know who owns the IP) could remaster Donkey Kong Country 1 and 2 (remaster not remake).

[Lanzagranadas]

Resident Evil Outbreak & File 2 with this treatment would be amazing. Fatal Frame 1-3 too.

[Faker]

Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption
Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines

would be very cool

Forgot to add two more to my list above:

Far Cry Instincts. OG Xbox remake of Far Cry 1 except unlike that game you get turned into a trigen yourself which in the remake translates as you getting cat powers ala a feline version of spiderman from claws to cheetah speed & leaping an impressive long jump, to smell tracking and night vision. The levels are sadly not as big as the PC Far Cry 1 but it's arguably better than the original and pioneered first person cutscenes which many games since then gleefully copied. It also did Halo 3's Forge before it was cool. Same with detaching turrets and carrying them as an extra gun which was cut from Halo 2.

Far Cry Instincts: Evolution. Sequel to the above and a lot shorter but the cat powers are explored more here in that it's a lot easier to regain adrenaline to power them, they add climbing sheer surfaces as a new power and on occasion you get a "berserk mode" where you can't use guns but get infinite adrenaline for powers in order to fight waves of bad guys. It reminds me of filling up dark karma to full in Shadow the Hedgehog crossed with Brutal Doom's berserk pack.

I tried to replay Drakan: Ancient Gates on my PS2 and that's when I remembered how few savegame slots there are, 4 in total.
Disappointing for me, since I would want to save at every boss fight and significant moment to revisit later without replaying the entire game.
I hope Tomb Raider Playstation games weren't savegame limited like that, I don't know through personal experience, since I always play TR on PC.

Can PS2 games be remastered for PC?
And as part of the process, given more savegame slots?
Ancient Gates could save anywhere, the limitation was just the low number of save slots.

GMDX is supposedly better.

Deathtrap Dungeon with online multiplayer

I checked you have it but in case people dont know:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/245010/Deathtrap_Dungeon/
It is available at Steam, ...

The steam version works poorly, has no sound or repeats the same audio track endlessly.
There is a fairly complex tutorial that requires you to install other software to fix this.

GOG version works perfectly, audio included, install and play.

Devil May Cry 3 could be a worthy one.
