I know that remakes and remasters are contentious, but let’s pretend whatever game in question you’re thinking of is handled with the utmost care by your favourite devs and they absolutely nail it.

Mine would be Shadow of Memories (called Shadow of Destiny in North America). It’s legitimately one of my favourite games of all time but it kinda flew under the radar and I haven’t met many people who know of it let alone played it. Seeing it get modern graphics, maybe some expanded mechanics, would be soooo cool.

    no it wasn’t. i backed the kickstarter. it was always an online game, it just had “solo” and “private” modes. and they didn’t get “so much money”, they got like 120% of their target. they were up against the star citizen kickstarter and that got all the hype.

    my main issue with ED is that they focused on building a modern Elite rather than a modern Elite 4. Building upon the ideas of Frontier: First Encounters would have made a very different game.

    X is more like Freelancer meets Euro Truck Simulator, in my experience.
