New Hawx trailer is full of intensityThe game industry seems to be turning to remakes of old classics such as Alone in the Dark and Bionic Commando or relying on producing blockbuster sequels like Resident Evil 5 and Killzone 2 in order to push this generation forward. PSU has decided to put together a list of archived titles, remembered and forgotten, that should be brought back from the dead, to live again on the PlayStation console. This is a list of titles that once graced our beloved platforms with unique ideas, interesting characters, and just all around fun gameplay. Whether for a new set of paint, updated audio, or purely the sake of reliving the franchise, here are the Top 10 Games to revive on the PlayStation 3.
#10. Mark of Kri

Originally Developed by SCE Studios San Diego, Mark of the Kri mixed a unique storyline with great characters and an innovative combat system. It was almost like a cartoony version of God of War. The series was last seen when the sequel Rise of the Kasai, developed by BottleRocket Entertainment (responsible for upcoming Splatterhouse title), was released in 2005.
#9. Ehrgeiz: God Bless the Ring

This is definitely an oldie. Developed by Dream Factory (Tomba and The Bouncer) and published by Squaresoft, Ehrgeiz was a guilty pleasure on the original PlayStation. The game showcased a total of 16 characters, including famous faces as Cloud Strife, Tifa, and Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII. The title also featured endurance modes as well as an "RPG" mode where players would select a character to fight through randomly generated dungeons. Overall the game was average, but how many of you would buy the game no matter what just to brawl with Cloud and Sephiroth?
#8. Fear Effect

Developed by Kronos Digital Entertainment Inc., the Fear Effect series was a fast paced action adventure game using anime inspired graphics and hot lesbian ladies to hook the player into the experience. Sadly the series never made it to the PlayStation 2, as Fear Effect Inferno was canceled. However, there are rumors now that Eidos may be looking to revive the series once more on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
#7. Dino Crisis

From the creators of Resident Evil, this survival horror title dropped players on a remote island to acquire a missing scientist, only to be hunted down and devoured by dinosaurs. The game featured a large selection of weapons and a variety of dinosaurs ranging from the Tyrannosaurus to the Deinonychus (aka: Super Raptor). If remade, we'd like to see the game running on the Resident Evil 5 engine, allowing for spectacular graphics, animations, and action sequences. With the game running on PlayStation 3 hardware, it would be exciting to see Capcom use 7.1 HD surround sound to intensify the feeling of being stalked by veracious dinosaurs.
#6. Legacy of Kain

First developed by Silicon Knights, but then continued by Crystal Dynamics, the Legacy of Kain series were some of the greatest vampire stories ever told in video-games. Titles in the series included: Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain, Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver, Soul Reaver 2, Blood Omen 2, and then finally, Legacy of Kain: Defiance, all of which appeared on PlayStation platforms. After the completion of Defiance however, Legacy of Kain's team leader, Amy Hennig left the studio, and since her departure Crystal Dynamics has made no update concerning the series.
#5. Intelligence Qube

Now this may be just a personal favorite, but I would love to see this title re-released or remade for the PlayStation Network. Developed by Sony Computer Entertainment, Intelligence Qube put your reaction speed and IQ to the test, running players through hundreds of different mind wrenching puzzles, or letting them create their own puzzles. Also players could go head to head and battle it out - a feature that would be great, especially now that we have online.
#4. Jet Moto

There is nothing like Jet Moto. Speeding ... (continued on next page)

The only games I've played up their was Fear Effect ( awesome lesbians ) and Jet Moto! It would be fantastic if they remake them games for thePlaystation 3!!
Absolutely would love to see FEAR EFFECT on the PS3. I remember both Fear Effect and Fear Effect Retro Helix were 4 disc games on the PS1. Sick characters, twisted story and fun gameplay. God, I had forgotten about those excellent classics.
FEAR EFFECT ON THE PS3 - new game of re-release the old games on the PS Store. Please.
Also would love to see Legacy of Kain - Soul Reaver.
Haha, I knew before reading this what the #1 would be! Lets just hope Square can get it out before the end of the PS3's lifespan. I wouldn't count on it anytime soon with as many projects as they have going on right now.
And yeah I'd definately agree with Dark Cloud too, that was an amazing game.
am i the only one who wants a sequel or another The Bouncer? that game was wonderful and it would've been better if square didn't rush it
Twisted metal with destructible environments would be awesome not to mention the online play.
A Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver remake would be epic.Or they should at least release the psone game for download even blood omen.If sony actually do PS2 titles for download at least make Dark cloud downloadable its rare a preowned dark cloud is impossible WTH GAME/gamestop
PSN ID: tatti
wats bout shadow of colousses.
baulders gate 3: GREAT IDEA! some of the best dungeon crawling on ps2...plus it looked awesome!
@chomperbull
I'm gonna have to agree with the parasite eve! That game was i mean still is awesome. When I first got my ps3 I played Metal Gear 2 and Parasite Eve on it!
"Although, it's still frustrating to have them dangle a beautiful tech demo in our face of what Final Fantasy VII COULD look like on the PS3 and then not develop the title completely."
Yeah, well, that's what they did with FFVIII for a PS2 tech demo so I wouldn't dwell on thoughts of a FFVII remake too much if I were you...
Expect Final Fantasy VII remake on PS3 before it's all over with. Square Enix already said it themselves, you can "expect something spontaneous" once the team who did the original game is freed up. The original team is working on FFXIII/Versus XIII, so once that is completed, we can expect to hear more about the FFVIII remake.
It's only logical. Square Enix knows they would be raking in the $$$$$$ with this title, and it would probably sell near 10 million copies, if not more.
I'm expecting it, but it's a looong ways off, so I'm not going to be thinking about it for another year at least.
Great article. Makes me seriously wonder where all the original PS3 games are? Sure, I'm excited for LittleBigPlanet, Killzone, Valkyrie Chronicles, etc., but where are the droves of other great titles that we came to expect from the PlayStation brand? A sequel to Dark Cloud is a great example: where is it???
Fear Effect nice looks almost like lara croft, never played it though
Intelligence Qube, i would play this.
jet moto i have still for ps1
PLEASE PLEASE REMAKE mgs1!!!!
FFVII will be sweet, Fear Effect i haven't played in so long. Also isn't Dark Cloud 3 scheduled for the PS3?
A new twisted metal would rock and I think a new or remake of Parasite Eve would be awesome.
uhh, 1solidsnake they did remake MGS1 it was called the Twin Snakes on Gamecube duh. and i agree with earlier posts, i would like to see another BOUNCER game.
yay im not the only one who wants another The Bouncer!!!
Okami would be nice, and so would and Oci (SP?) or Shadow of the Collossus game.
I rented ehrgiez a long time ago, but the disc was scratched =|
Fear Effect sounds yummy tho! Also If they ran Vice City on the gta4 engine, I'd be one happy man. Don't even need to change anything about the city either, just make it prettier and maybe add some more random stuff said by NPCs.
Am I the only person who didn't like GTA4?
I recommend dino crisis it's an incredible game . it was one of the best ps1 games i've ever played . i'm very enthusiastic for this game to appear on PS3
I believe I started this thread in the forums ;) It's good to get these games together to show devs what games we would like to see put into thought for a remake. I want to see Jet Moto remade the most!
what about heart of darkness. even if they didn't remake it at least put it in the Store for download
i'm surprised not to see Chrono Trigger on this list, in my opinion the best RPG that i have ever played, dont flame me yet, i haven't played FF7 and am planning on it. and FF8 didn't make an appearance either. thats just my opinion anyways.
PSN id = Algazero
il be happy with, 1-shadow of the colossus 2-mark of kri 3-soul reaver 4-dark cloud, and okage but i doubt okage would ever see the light of day
Only Dino Crisis for me from that list also there are sony many games i would love on Ps3 its not funny just imagine what some of the ones from ps1 would do:)
Parasite Eve 3, Chrono Trigger 2, etc good luck Xbox 360
I wan't to play as Raziel on the ps3....it would be awesome!!!...FFVII ...yes...I found Fear Effect on the crippy side....still gives me chills ...lol....anyway..I would like to see these games remade:)
Dino Crisis and Legacy of Kain; yes. The others; i've either never heard of or were crap to begin with. Who came up with this list PSU?
There sadly is a very very slim chance of another Baldurs Gate or Champions of Norrath seeing as the studio that made them disbanded, hence why they are more expensive used games but I can still dream!
yes! one of my favorite ps1 games Legacy of Kain: soul reaver. And Twisted metal is awesome..and did infact have some crazy, but kick a** characters
Mark of Kri
Legacy of Kain
Dino Crisis - keep dino crisis in third person view
Are u kidding me a cant beleive Shadow Of The Colosis isn't on the list. I truly think this is one of the best games of all time. Between both visually and artisticly. And with the ps3's processing power and visual leaps #2 would be incredable. An artistic masterpeice would fall short with the quality the game could reach. Hopefully this remake will happen and the shadows can be taken for another incredable journey again.
what happen to shadow of colossus. o wait i remember they were making another one by a different name or something. One of my favorites
Dino crisis, Soul reaver, Jet moto and Twisted metal, Yeah !!!
wow im really surprised no ones said xenogears yet, but that a new front mission, vagrant story, and a remake of FF tactics would be on point, (i know they brought it back on the psp, but im not much for hand helds) tenchu, pitball, blody roar, i dunno i got a big list oh and finally a new legend of mana.
Aside from Final Fantasy VII, the title I would most like to see be remade is probably one most of you don't remember or never played. It was for the NES and it was one of the funnest rpgs I have ever played. That game is Crystalis. Anyone else here ever play this game? I know they will never do it, but it would make an excellent next gen game if they did it right.
I knew Final Fantasy VII would be the first and totally agree!
Shadow of the Colossus...
6toes ps3 life span will be for at least the next ten years so they got plenty of time. hopefullly since sony arent working on a ps4 theyve been working on a psp 2. as the lack of decent titles is lacking on the system and there not many game currently being developed for psp so could this mean well hear about a psp 2 at e3 i hope so. and as elder scrolls travels been cancelled?
Fear Effect, Dino Crisis and Soul Reaver would be AWESOME... They were such great titles back on ps1, we can only dream :(
Wow SOCOM isnt on the list.. This list should be Top 10 Asian games to revive the PS3..
final fantasy 7 and dark cloud please those games were amazing!!!!
1- FFVII
2- Legend of dragoon
3- Goemon
4- Arc the Lad
5- Philosoma
6- Gunners heaven
7- Albert odyssey
8- Rocket Knight Adventure
9- Shining Force
10- Medievil
Here is my top 10
Final Fantasy VII, Fear Effect, Dark Cloud and Parasite Eve.
Yeah we definetly need a new Dark Cloud, but with them working on White Knight chronicles the game could be quite awhile.
Does anybody remember these great games. #1.Onimusha, #2. Abe's Oddworld, #3. Time Splitters, #4. Blackhawk Down and the last game was on sega but still a great game that they can do is #5. Flashback. that game was a great platform game and ahead of its time.
Def. agree with Dino Crisis, that game was freakin awesome! Need one other game though. I think a remake of MGS1 on the ps3 would kill! The shadow moses level on MGS4 was amazing, I couldn't imagine playing the entire game like that!
ohh man if only they could do a remake of final fantasy VII,or on the movie,that would be awesome,better yet,i hope marvel vs. capcom comes out for the ps3!!!!!
How could you all forget probably the most stunning ps1 rpg ever made. The Legend of Dragoon. This is a game that the ps3 really needs. It has no rpgs worth mentioning. Plus lod had one of the most unique systems which could be worked on. It's also a sony exclusive and one of it's best projects ever. I would love to see this beauty back.
MARK OF KRI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FF7 and FF8!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LEGEND OF DRAGOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shadow of the Collosis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sonic Adventure 1 and 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nuff said
Legend of dragoon should definetly have a remake...or have another one...it was the best game ever on ps1...and i found that GTA4 sucked too...it was way over rated
Just gimme Soul Reaver remake (using original audio voice-over tracks plz) and Dark Cloud 3. :D
A remake of Tekken 2 and 3 will be very nice along with Final Fantasy VII!
does no one remember air combat
A second sequel to the mark of Kri would be coool.
Dino Crisis I would love to see Capcom make a new one.
If Edios could make a new Legacy of Kain that would be neat.
Intelligence Qube I could see selling really well. If it was to get remade. Every one loves echochrome and I think people would like this game too.
I so would love a new Jet Moto too. I have been wishing with the past ones coming out on PSN Sony was thinking about making a new one.
I really hope the rumors are true that Level 5 are making Dark Cloud 3 for the
PS3. Plus that there MMO really will get a rebirth on the PS3. That game was called True Fantasy Live Online. I can't tell you how much I hope the rumor is true that TFLO will come out on the PS3.
Now other games that are not on the list that I hope Sony brings to either the PSN or allows them to have a sequel. Plus I hope the third party members will make new ones too. My list of games I want to see are.
Arc the Lad, Alundra, Blasto, Breath of Fire, Bushido Blade, Colony Wars, DarkStalkers, Destruction Derby, Front Mission, G Police, Hydro Thunder, Legend of Legaia, Legend of Mana, Marvel vs. Capcom, MDK, NBA Jam, Lost Vikings, Oddworld, Parasite Eve, Rayman, Road Rash, SaGa Frontier, Snatcher, Suikoden, Syndicate Wars, Syphon Filter, Strider, Policenauts, Primal Rage, Tactics Ogre, The Legend of Dragoon, Tomba!, Vagrant Story, vib-ribbon, Wild Arms, & Xenogears.
So those are the games I want on PSN, remade or to get a sequel.
just let vii die, it was awesome and all but it already did all it was supose to do. It is as good as it could get, anyways saw some good titles on that list that needs revival
FFVII
Medieval
Suikoden
Tomba!
& Dragon Valor
Id be happy to get a sequel or a remake of those (except FFVII remake it :D)
remaking dark cloud and dino crisis and legacy of kain
and of course FFVI is great
it would be great if they remake one of the best RPG games EVER
legend of the dragon
Loaded , Coolboarders , Altered beast, and PaRappa the Rapper
plz bring back the #1-4 PLZ@!!!!!!
I want FF7 and FF8 more than anything, PSone titles definitely need to be remade more than PS2 because of how dated the graphics are. PSone games look awful when you go back and play them today. Especially on a big screen HDTV.
do you know when aliens coloniale marines will be coming out for ps3
Jet moto FTW I hated Jet Moto for the PS2 they FAILED badly with a capital F.
As for FFVII I actually wonder if anyone would still buy this remake if it ever came to light. I mean it's been 11 years since the game came out. If u were 11 then you're 22 now, and I don't think many of them would be wanting to play that. As they have more important stuff to do this is only an example.
I actually want a remake of NFS III Hot Pursuit that game was fun when EA actually made games fun. Ridge Racer for the PS1 those were good times man good times.
some of these are great for revival but i would love to see some Parasite Eve
FF VII being number 1 is a no-brainer.
I miss Vagrant Story, this game defiantly should have a re-make on PS3. Just looked at some footage, it was a great looking PS1 game, it would defiantly suit the PSP.
I love the Legacy of Kain Series, It would be great to see a timeline like the one in MGS 4 database.
Fear Effect was great, finished the first then only played some of the sequel.
Never got to play the Dark Cloud game or the other one but always wanted to.
Where is SOCOM 4 WIth single player mode and Kingdom heart 3
parasite eve fo sho
You know what I've been waiting forever for??? ROAD RASH! You remember that game??? That game was sick!
Jet Moto for sure. That game was amazing.
hold up man wheres The BOUNCER that game rocked id love to b able to play dat again
