What franchises would you like to see resurrected next gen?

I really havn't thought about it much and have become content with the games I got. I guess I would like to see what the new Elder Scrolls will be.

@rogerjak: I'm pretty sure they shut down last year, but you're right...it was awesome! All I really wanted from a sequel was to have them tighten up the controls (moving, shooting, jumping, etc) a bit, but Starhawk changed too much.

They make it seem like Herman Hulst is going to focus more on multiplayer games this gen, so we'll just have to wait and see.

@dimebag667: I was disappointment with Starhawk. To much of a setting change and the game lost its essence. I actually broke my 1st controller because of Warhawk ahah good times

Ninja Gaiden

THPS

SSX

Def Jam Vendetta

Spinter Cell

Fucking A for Golden Sun and Viewtiful Joe.

No idea why you'd want a mediocre fighter like Bloody Roar when we got dozens of high quality fighting games.

It would be nice to see a modern version of JSRF.

A proper Dungeon Keeper would be rad

Rockstar needs the audacity to break away from their linear and repetitive storytelling mold be make a detective game truly work.

It was disappointing to have zero consequences in LA Noire. You can royally screw up a case yet the game will brush it under the rug for the sake of its linear story. Narrative was incredibly disjointed because of that.

For some kind of reboot, I'd like to see true narrative consequence for prosecuting the wrong people, for example. They can do Ace Attorney mechanics, like what if we had a detective game that can throw you into a massive courtroom battle and you battle up to the verdict? That would be awesome, and not just end there but any verdict directly influences the entire game.

@Juub1990: I love fighting games and I played just about any fighting games to an extent. I really had fun playing Bloody Roar back in the day and the transformation of the characters during fights was the coolest thing back in my younger days. Bloody Roar deserves to be back in the spotlight.

@davillain-: Bare minimum there are surely enough fans to warrant a new entry from the series.

There are so many games that they could at least put out 1 new version per generation. I don't want jet Moto to put out three new games this next gen, but one would be nice.

@rogerjak: I totally agree about Starhawk. The build your base on the fly idea sounded cool, but in practice it just made everything look like a shantytown.

It was actually pretty great. I only really played Future Perfect (third in the series), but I remember it having an insane amount of MP customization for a console shooter, and it even had a level editor. I also liked how every SP mission took place in a different time period so it never got boring.

@jaydan:

Yea a few cases were linear to tie in with the storyline but is was still a pisser investigating a crime for a few hours only for you to be pulled of the case at the last minute because of corruption,

If you fucked a case up you should have been demoted to street crime for some side quests then back to the dept you were at or demoted to a lower department

Still loved the game tho HAH

honestly. pro wrestling for nintendo. no licensing.

@clone01: WWF No Mercy still the best wrestling game of all time..

@davillain- did you play Ehrgeiz?

Still awaiting another Freedom Fighters.

Yeah, I only played TS2. Your description of Future Perfect fits TS2 perfectly as well.

It's too wacky for Ghosts, though. He's a bit sensitive about his manliness and can only play games with blood and other muscular men.

Road Rash

Twisted Metal

Kings Field

Tenchu

Freedom fighters

Rogue Squadron

Wing Commander

Skate or Die

Manhunt

It hit me today - Square Enix should bring back Final Fantasy Tactics.

1. Metal Gear

2. Castlevania

3. Darkstalkers

4. Marvel vs Capcom

5. Not really a franchise ( But I need a bad ass X-Men game).

6. Demon Souls

7. Ninja Gaiden

@SolidGame_basic: Great choice. I would love FF Tactics with modern visuals.

Chrono Cross.

I think I've posted the same thing in similar threads at least 5 times this year so far.

Nov 18, 2019 was the 20th anniversary of the original PS1 release and I was absolutely appalled that we saw nothing about it. All I was is a remake with AI upscaled versions of those beautiful backgrounds. Maybe upscale the character models and menus.

Hell I would do it myself if I could figure out a way to rip all the images and repack them into the game.

Fucking. Do it.

Or give me the damn source code, Square-Enix.

this game was very underrated. Love to see them tackle the 1960s like Mafia 3.

Socom

Motorstorm

Resistance

Warhawk

Freedom Fighters

Mercenaries

The Thing (remastered)

UN Squadron

Twisted Metal/Vigilante 8

Splinter Cell

Rainbow Six not open world

NARC

Smash TV

DeathSpank

DesertStorm(apache helicopter type game)

Manhunt

Many games come to mind, but most of their "last" entries were mostly just cash grabs/or downright flops, so i have little to no faith... Just a few that already had sequel(s):

Legacy of Kain
Parasite Eve
Bloody Roar
Dino Crisis
inFAMOUS
The Darkness
BloodRayne
Prince of Persia
Def Jam (not a fan of rappers or hip hop, but Fight for NY was great)
Viewtiful Joe
Ninja Gaiden
Ridge Racer
Motorstorm

Many Konami IP's also came to mind, but i left them out because... Konami, duh + no to mention "killed off for zero-to-no reason" series too, such as PGR, TimeSplitters, Maximo (Ghost 'n Goblins)...

Tenchu, Warhawk, Powerstone, 007, The Suffering

Uh, that's pretty harsh statement. I mean, it's no Street Fighter or Tekken, but that mostly depends when and what entry did you play first...
I played a demo version of BR1 back in 1997, but my first "full experience" was when i got the NTSC-J version of BR2 on PS1 in '99 (i don't speak japanese, but i don't mind - the eng VA was so pathetic, that even the devs didn't bother to sync it properly in the entire series, lmao) and that was probably its peak .
It went quickly downhill from there - from stagnating (BR3 & Primal Fury/Extreme) to dumbed down and basically broken (BR4)...

• F-Zero
• Prince of Persia
• Burnout
• Ninja Gaiden
• Project Gotham Racing
• Virtua Fighter
• Knights of the Old Republic
• Splinter Cell

Metal Gear, if Sony buys KojiPro and gets the rights for Metal Gear...
