What OLD titles would you like to see Matrix remake/publish?

Post by ravinhood »

Nostalgia and reminissing are wonderful things, I was just thinking of some old games by SSI I think I'd like to see remade into update versions with better AI and (eyecandy). heh

I'm just gonna list a few games off the top of my head.

1) Roadwar 2000 (a great post holocaust rpg/tactical wargame (car wars style))
2) War of the Lance (best fantasy wargame I ever played would be hard to improve this ai)
3) Computer Ambush (with more random maps)
4) Questron (one of the most fun rpgs I ever played)
5) Battles of Napolean (I think someone is doing this one already)
6) Knights in the Desert (where's all the WWII desert warfare games?(this was also my first ever computer wargame, the reason I bought a computer, came on a CASSETTE TAPE)

I'm sure there are many more, but, I'm too lazy to get my commodore 64 game list out right now. So, I'll leave it to the rest of you to add more or make comments on my choices.

I would love to see a modern era tactical wargame similiar to Steel Panthers II. I haven't yet found a game to fit the bill.

"The last Ninja"

I remember the Last Ninja, I suked at that game, I did much better with Moebius and Windwalker by Sierra I think it were. I just kept using that knee kick and won most everytime. heh

Straight up and with no hesitation...X-Com series.

It will never happen,but i would like to think that they above anyone else could,and would, do this game justice.

I'll just continue to live in my fantasyland until that day arrives.unless they would take my lone plea and consider it seriously[;)][:D]

Anzio! The old AH boardgame. With the variable victory conditions so you could never be certain exactly what you had to do to win.

There was an old spectrum game called either sink or hunt the bismark, or just bismark that was outstanding at the time. At least thats how I remember it

Car Wars conversion.

Ravinhood for Computer ambush check out Sniper Ambush by Mnemonic games.

I have a feeling Matrix will pick this one up anyway.
