    With Final Fantasy 1 & 2 being confirmed for remake for the GBA.

    What other games would you like to see re-released for the GBA? I'd like to see FFVI and maybe killer instinct.

    I'd love to see a new Turrican game on any format.

    A new Syndicate game (And nothing like the naff sequal) on the PC would be deadly!

    I don't care for remakes. If you go to E3 98% of the stuff on show is a liscence or part of an existing game franchise.

    The games I found most compelling this genre were all original tiles: Ico, Viewtiful Joe and Monkey Ball.

    I'd like to see that aswell. And a good remake of Elite would go down a treat. Oh Oh and James Pond

    Body Harvest Body Harvest :D

    Oh BF Farcry GTA <insert any free roaming game with vehicles here> only stole all their ideas from this game :D

    Best game ever even with horrendous controls and crazy non swimming feature.

    I don't want remakes - I want the games I've played and loved to stay in my head as good thinks, rather than someone coming along and remaking it badly.

    Now if someone came up and offered a perfect MZM-style remake of super metroid... could anyone refuse?

    god no , that was a terrible game...nice setting but the game itself was tripe imo.

    kdjac: Interestingly enough, I believe Body Harvest was originally designed as GTA3 (either that, or they later had a prototype GTA3 running on the body harvest engine)

    Also, wasn't there a new Syndicate game announced not too long ago?

    What with no sign of Duke Nukem Forever showing up, I'd love a remake of DN3D. And NiGHTS.

    I read about that also the final stage on Earth is meant to be in GTA3 as a homage of sorts (the helicopter part) dunno where.

    I know a guy who works for DMA North or whatever they called now and i beg and i beg but atm they aint doing a remake.

    Axelay or at least the promised sequel. Actually I'd love a treasure shooter on the
    GBA.

    Solid Snake would be great given a twin snakes type make over.

    as much as i'm beginning to loathe fps's... that licence could make a very sweet one.

    there is no game that i can think of as worthy of a gba remake. think i'll stick to emulation on a 32 inch tv, thankyouverymuch:)
