r/videogames

So many game IPs have been just laying with publishers who just hold on to them. I have been thinking about IPs which would be great if they have a new game now. For me I have a few that come to my mind.

Ultima: I personally tried to get into the Ultima series but the older games and their gameplay has always been just so clunky imo. But the world and the concepts are so cool, Honestly the games are in the prime territory for a remake but sadly EA seems to have no interest in it.

Myth: If you asked me before I would have said I would love for Marathon to be back as it is my fav Sci Fi world in fiction. But now we have a new game, and I personally love it many ways even as it is divisive. It got me thinking of another Bungie IP that I loved...Myth. The story and concepts of the 2 Bungie Myth games are just so good. The horror of the undead and the player experinceing it as a group of common soldiers in a RTS is so cool. But right now Take-Two seemingly has fully forgotten about it. They did try to make Myth 3 but it was not as good, they seemingly have abandoned the IP since.

Quake: This is simple, I love Quake...I love the atmosphere of the OG Quake, Quake 2 and 4 are literraly a different story and world. Quake 3 and Champions are multiplyer only and also completely different games. I would love to see the continuation or addition to the first Quake. The Remasters of Quake and Quake 2 did add campaigns connecting and following up on Quake 1 but honestly I would love to see a new Quake by ID Software. They still have the IP, I just wish they use it to nake new games.

I would love to know what other Game IP others wish would be back/revived

Hi everyone. I've been playing video games my whole life, and I absolutely love them. They're my biggest hobby, and I can't imagine my life without them.

But there's something that's been on my mind lately: why don't any modern games become some of my all-time favorites?

For example, I'm currently playing Ghost of Tsushima, and I think it's absolutely incredible. I love this game. Even so, I already know it won't earn a spot on my list of favorite games.

Why does this happen? Is it just nostalgia for the past? Or did older games really have a certain magic that today's games don't?

My all-time favorites are:

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

Ratchet & Clank 2: Going Commando

BioShock Infinite

Assassin's Creed II

Alice: Madness Returns

I'd love to discover some new all-time favorites. Based on my taste, do you have any recommendations?

Anyone else think now would be a good time for Sega to rise from the ashes?

Seems like with everything going on between Sony and Microsoft, now would be the perfect time for Sega to rise from the ashes to engage in a new era of console wars.

What do you guys think?

Tomb Raider II (1997)

7 MONTHS

It was my first time playing it. I was playing a bunch of other games at the same time, and after taking a pretty long break, I just assumed I'd already beaten it. Then, seven months later, I realized I hadn't actually finished it, so I went back and played it until I finally beat it.

After beating Remake a few months ago and after wrapping up Ni no Kuni and Trails Through Daybreak, I decided to go back to Final Fantasy! It’s only my second one after Remake and I did see some snippets of gameplay, but otherwise i’m going in blindly 😇🙏🏻 Excited! What is everyone else playing this week?
