10 PS3 HD Collections that should, but probably won't be made

Ape Escape

 

What would be included ?

Ape Escape, Ape Escape 2 and Ape Escape 3

Why it should be remade?

This was one of those simple games from everyone's childhood that they loved (it may not be this one but every gamer had one). If this were to be remade every fan out there would be overjoyed at the return of Ape Escape -and not another spin off-.

Why it probably won't be made ?

You would think when the whole PS3 HD Collections came about that Ape Escape would be one of the first few to be made and released, but no, there are no signs of it ever being made as SCE Japan Studio still continue to make spin offs that don't sell as much as what the main series do, but do spin offs ever outsell the main titles ... any ?

 

Suggested Trophy - Capture all monkeys.

 

 

Crash Bandicoot

 

What would be included ?

Crash Bandicoot, Crash Bandicoot 2, Crash Bandicoot 3, Crash Team Racing and Crash Bash

Why it should be remade?

Come on who didn't love Crash Bandicoot ... Exactly,  having this re-released and in HD would be amazing and would boost Naughty Dogs sales through the roof as those who lost, broke or didn't have the game but played it at their friends can buy it again and relive those moments of their childhood, after all Crash Bandicoot 2 was one of the best selling PS1 games worldwide, what would make them not want to remake it ?

Why it probably won't be made ?

All the games (Excluding Crash Bash made by Universal Interactive Studios)  have already been released on the PSN store. Furthermore it seems more likely that if this were to be made it would consist of the less brilliant PS2 games that were not made by the original creators Naughty Dog. Also Naught Dog have contributed to the HD Collection already but with their games Jak and Daxter skipping the earlier title of Crash suggesting they had reasons not to make it and instead go with a more modern series of game - Jak.

Suggested Trophy - Find the hidden warp room in Crash Bandicoot 2.

 

 

Dark Cloud

 

What would be included ?

Dark Cloud and Dark Chronicle/Dark Cloud 2

Why it should be remade?

Dark Cloud was one of those dungeon types of games, yet this stood out from the rest and is most memorable by fans, I can't quite put my finger on it but there was something about it that was so captivating, maybe it was the idea of finding parts and building the village, or maybe it was the dungeon floor rules but either way to be remade would be amazing and would give the game a second chance to reel in new fans if they ever came across it in a store.
  

Why it probably won't be made ?

Level-5 seems to be far too busy making more Professor-Layton games -sure they're great- but it'd be awesome if they made these two great games again, it was a rumor that they were making a HD Collection as well as a Dark Cloud 3 for the PS3, unfortunately these rumors date back from as early as 2008, and still nothing, so it's looking very likely that Level-5 are aware of what fans want but are continuing with the Professor-Layton series, who knows maybe after they slow down on that series that may look back at Dark Cloud and decide to revisit it.

 

Suggested Trophy - Rebuild all villages to everyone's requests.

 

 

Kingdom Hearts

 

What would be included ?

Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Heart 2

Why it should be remade?

Because it's Kingdom Hearts, should I need to explain. Anyways, these are the only two non-hand held console based and main titled games in the series, they should be considered for HD revamp because it will give fans something to look forward to before they come out with Kingdom Hearts 3.

Why it probably won't be made ?

Square Enix has been making too many spinoff's and side stories for hand-held consoles, so I can't see them deciding to make a remastered version of the main games as there will be gaps in the storyline's, also Square Enix is making a HD game but of Final Fantasy X. 

Hard to believe it but the first two games were out when I was a teenager, now I'm an adult and still no third game, although they do wish to make their new one the third game, so basically it doesn't seem like they have any time to make one.

Suggested Trophy - Get the secret ending.

  Edit - Kingdom Hearts is now getting an HD collection. Yay

 

Klonoa

 

What would be included ?

Klonoa and Klonoa 2

Why it should be remade?

Klonoa is a platforming game that is just as good as Crash Bandicoot and Spyro, it may not have had extra challenges that don't need to be done, but are there for hard core gamers (like the gems in Crash Bandicoot) but this was still a highly enjoyable, imaginable and creative game that was a wonder to play.

Why it probably won't be made ?

The game was not well known so they decided to remake the first game for the Wii, if sales were good they'd consider making a third one, it came out in 2008 and no sign of a third one, so it's a no brainier as to why it won't be made.

 

Suggested Trophy - Release all bubbles.

 

 

Project Zero

 

What would be included ?

Project Zero, Project Zero 2 and Project Zero 3

Why it should be remade?

These games have went down as the scariest games ever made, so it's got a pretty big title for itself why would they not want to remake them. For a title as big as that they have not released many games, so by releasing an HD Collection it would be a clear indication that the developers still have an interest and would still like to make these games.

Why it probably won't be made ?

Project Zero/Fatal Frame won't be made, the second one in particular as it was just recently re-released for the Wii in HD with additional content, also Nintendo seems to have some control over the future of this series, now and I really doubt Nintendo will allow games to be revamped for their rivals console the PS3 do you ?

Suggested Trophy - Get the runaway ending.

 

 

Rayman

 

What would be included ?

Rayman and Rayman 2

Why it should be remade?

Rayman (like Klonoa) was another fantastic platformer that sadly did not get the reputation it should have it was merely pushed aside by Crash Bandicoot and Spyro and ignored or not known about by the vast majority of it's intended audience, now in a world without Crash Bandicoot or Spyro mainstream games and in a world where not many platformers are released it will give Rayman another chance at getting noticed.

 

Why it probably won't be made ?

Well lets see, released on the PSN store, they're busy making a third one in HD, and Rayman has never really received the status he truly deserved nor the number of fans, who knows maybe they will make one and release it prior to the third installment as a surprise.

 

Suggested Trophy - Unlock all cages.

 

 

Resident Evil

 

What would be included ?

Resident Evil, Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3

Why it should be remade?

Let's face it, the original's were awesome weren't they  why shouldn't they get remade. This was truly a step forward for the horror genre in gaming, the fourth game changed horror again but sadly made it more action and less about surviving, so it'd be nice to remake these and show people what Resident Evil -and other horror games- were like before they decided to give it a revamp.

Why it probably won't be made ?

Well it won't be made because they've already made one entitled "Chronicles" also the original games have also been released on the PSN store so chances of them also being released in stores and in HD are looking pretty slim, further more if they were to make an HD Collection, Capcom would probably chose to make another version of Resident Evil 4 *Sigh* rather than the classics for the ps1.

Suggested Trophy - Kill Nemesis for good.

 

 

Siren

 

What would be included ?

Siren and Forbidden Siren 2 

Why it should be remade?

These games stayed true to the original concept of horror and was not action like (The second game came out after the horror evolution in gaming but remained true to the concept). They were very unique and highly creative, games like these tend to go unnoticed which is a real shame as it is these games that are truly amazing and for those who do discover and play them they realize that these games are without doubt some of the best made game out there.

Why it probably won't be made ?

Have you heard of Siren .... No, that's one of the reasons why it will probably not be made, not enough potential buyers , also the style of Siren is very unsettling and if it was to be revamped to meet HD standards that layer of disturbance caused by the HD art will be lost and the game would not have a big an impact as they once did.

 

Suggested Trophy - Complete the game without sightjacking.

 

 

Spyro the Dragon

 

What would be included ?

Spyro, Spyro 2 and Spyro Year of the Dragon

Why it should be remade?

Like Crash Bandicoot these games were amazing and remembered fondly by all, who didn't love the little purple dragon (not the horrible bad-ass looking one now). Having a HD release of this would encourage any fan to pick it up and jump straight back into their childhood.

Why it probably won't be made ?

Well they released all the Spyro games onto the PSN store, although the three stores, (PAL, North America and Japan) vary with what titles they have, with this being online and ready to download and relive, it is very unlikely that it will not be getting added to the HD Collection list.

Suggested Trophy - Collect all dragon eggs.
