Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine...
in my opinion needs a reboot but with these graphics and type of game play.

I have the CD-ROM in it's original case for Infernal Machine. It's an old game but boy was it (in my opinion) the best of all the Indiana Jones games ..

This game (imo) is turning out to be fantastic. I haven't completed it yet but so far it's awesome.. The taking photos, the punctuation for detail and accurate history is fascinating. The combat is fun, and the puzzles are cool... yea i'm enjoying this one, I gotta say.. which only gives me nostalgia of where I started with indiana Jones games

If you played Indiana Jones and The Infernal Machine - just imagine it with these type of graphics and experience.

It is on steam and I was able to do a replay about a year ago and I pray to our lord and savior that one day it could get a reboot with today's graphics.

Now that they are still making indiana jones games, I have a little hope that maybe they actually could or would give up an enhanced version of old indie games..

Tbh I highly doubt it will get the attention it deserves but a man can dream cant he?

either way if you haven't played infernal machine, I'd definitely do it after you finish this. It's on steam and I only had to download one patch file to get past a glitch in the lava level. I had no other issues with any other part of the game.

there us confirmation that there will be more indiana jones games, but it will not be a remake of existing games.

they said there are alot of moments in the movie timelines that allows for more unique stories.

The Infernal Machine / Emperor's Tomb were big time inspired by Tomb Raider.

I think this one is a more interesting (and as far as Indy games are concernced) original mix. Kinda like Dishonored/Thief meets Wolfenstein. There's even some elements from the adventure games (Fate Of Atlantis) back again.

Puzzles are simple, but at times it plays like Fate Of Atlantis in first person 3D. In particular in more "social" areas, e.g. villages or Vatican -- and of course riddle tombs.

I think Fate of Atlantis has far more nostalgia and praise associated with it if they wanted to do a remake. Infernal Machine is the one that's hardest to play today though, so I guess in that sense I'd prefer it since I'm fine playing Atlantis even now.

All that said I reallllly doubt they ever do a remake. If they ever do another game I'm sure it would be a sequel to this of their own design.

completely agree. my favorite indiana jones game and one of my favorite games period.

Man now I imagine a 1-to-1 remake of Fate Of Atlantis with these visuals (still point&click though, isometric or something).

I would actually like to see a movie adaptation for The Fate of Atlantis. It would be great if that would be considered by LucasFilms at some point.

Regarding a video game remake in the same style as The Great Circle I would be sceptical. The Fate of Atlantis is a point-and-click adventure game and every charm this game has would get lost if you turn it into an action adventure. The only way such a remake could stay faithful to the original game would be if they leave the gameplay as is and only work on the graphics. See for example the recently released remake for Riven, the sequel to Myst, which is like the original game, but now with a full 3D environment.

There isn't going to be another indiana Jones game but the dlc. the game is a financial flop.

I do not think that the game is a financial flop, it was the #2 best selling video game ending December 14th in the US, according to Mat Piscatella (who is a gaming industry analyst):

That doesn't mean anything. You have to consider the production costs and revenues. Both are wide apart.

That the game is a finacial flop is a hypothesis. That it sold well in December after its release in the US is a fact. So I would highly doubt that your hypothesis is true.

The fact that the game is on GamePass also indicates that this is the source which Microsoft will use to cover most of the game's cost. GamePass has currently 34 million subscribers. Not everyone on GamePass will play this game, of course. But everyone supports this game through the monthly subscription fee of around $10. That is how this works for Microsoft's 1st party games.

If it sold relatively well while also being in Gamepass I'd say that's a very positive sign. Also a PS5 version is coming. Stop being doom and gloom for whatever agenda reasons you have.

I would rather always have hand-made pixel art than raytracing slop by professional "artists" who many of them didn't grow up playing or caring about games

have any of you seen the "remaster" of fate of atlantis? while I appreciate the work that was put in, it really didnt look as good as the sprite work. if atlantis were to be remade it would probably have to play like the third person games or like great circle. Infernal machine would be perfect for a remake with great visuals.
