Possible FAR CRY Instincts HD Trilogy Collection?

[Gravestoner]

I never played FAR CRY Instincts spin off series on the Original XBOX & the XBOX 360, but I want your guy's thoughts on if it could be a future plan. Games include FAR CRY Instincts, FAR CRY Instincts: Evolution, & FAR CRY Instincts: Predator in a HD Remaster Trilogy for XBOX ONE, PS4, & PC.

On paper it'll work, consider that HD remastering of games is the new gold mine for developers these days.

One huge technological hold back though was that FCI was originally developed on the CryEngine, which Ubi wouldn't likely have the license for it anymore. That means any new versions of the games will have to come along through Dunia. Now Dunia is indeed based on CryEngine, but there are probably enough redesigns and modifications to the engine in order to deserve the new name.

Hmmmm... Possibly a remake Trilogy with the new engine?

When Ubisoft decides it's worth the money, then yes.

Hope it happens, after Primal they should do that, or make reboot to the Instincts story side of FAR CRY, or just do Jurassic Park.

I think the bigger issue is, being honest, I thought those games were poorly received and only sold 'ok'. I remember playing one, and finding it a pretty ho humm console shooter with a 'real' franchise name slapped on it.

They weren't terrible strictly speaking. I've seen plenty of games scored way lower.

Another thing worth mentioning is that the series is never released on PC or PS. So you may get to see XB1 backward compatible ready before anything else.

I'd be interested if they did a proper job of it.
Far Cry 1 was really, really bad.

FC1 was created by Crytek. Ubisoft has taken over the series since then.

Even so, my opinion remains unchanged.

FCI(not FC1) is over a decade old already. The worst Ubi can do is upscale the texture to full 2K resolution and touch nothing else.

Shut up about your opinion then. Git gud at killing the mutants.

They would only need to port Predator because that game includes both Instincts and Evolution with improved graphics for the Xbox 360. I still have my copy of it and I've been wanting a PC port for a long time as well.
