Posts: 915 | Old games that deserve a re-make for XBLA Warning up front: if this is an old thread, I don't care - I don't do searches.
Can you think of an old game that you loved which would be great as a revamped XBLA offering? If so, tell us about it and post a link to a web reference so that we can see what you're talking about.
Anyways - mine are a bit obscure, but I'd like to see an old ID games classic brought forward with a polish.
My picks are Commander Keen and Battle Toads. Commander Keen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Battletoads - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Here's the one I was thinking of: Choplifter - big C64 game. I think it was redone for the Amiga as well - can't remember: Quote: |

| I would totally jump on that too...Mechwarriors 2 was awesome! None of the present 'mech' games come close to it.
