    Default Non-FF/DQ/KH game you would like to see a remake for?

    If SE decided to remake an old title from their backlog that isn't from one of their three flag ship series which would you like to see and why?

    Give me Ogre Battle: March of the Black Queen.

    That game was very well made, and could use some streamlined mechanics involving Ali, Cha, and Reputaion. There were ways of altering those numbers that are virtually impossible to realize without a guide, and end up requiring such ludicrous Micromanagement to control.

    But yeah, expand on the Dialogue, fix up those numbers, and give you actual description of what an item/weapon actually does, and you would have a thing of true beauty.

    Seiken Densetsu 3. And not even remade, just translate the original and port it to PSN and I'll be happy.

    Somethin' unexpected. Illusion of Gaia with a fresh coat of paint and a jazzed up battle system could have potential for greatness.

    Does naming Chrono Trigger go against the original intention of the thread? Because I think that it would look amazing in full cell-shaded glory.

    My first impulse was Parasite Eve. It and FFVII pioneered the real-time set piece which has become the apex of modern game design in the last few years. I think it's time for the return of The Cinematic RPG.

    But then I realized:

    More than any other title, Ogre Battle has the greatest potential to become something incredibly special through polish, tweaking, retranslation and rebalancing. There was no game like it at the time... The Grand Strategy RPG is a fleeting dream which would be such a joy to fully realize, especially since so many great Grand Strategy games have come out over the many years since Ogre Battle. Give us greater customization, control over parties, make Alignment and the other karma systems more tangible, and add in those epic Ogre Battle/Ivalice dialogue cutscenes we love so much and you'd inevitably have one of the most special games of all time.

    Yes. The biggest issue I had with that game was rather bare bones dialogue. There was just enough there to let you know what was going on, and be relatively interesting. I better script could be like what I felt Lion Wars did for Final Fantasy Tactics.

    And Bolivar, I still don't think there's anything really like Ogre Battle even after all these years. (Well Ogre Battle 64, but I'm not really in a position to comment on it. )

    I agree, it's best we not go there

    As long as they hired the creators back, Xenogears.

    >>> Xenogears? is the only thing worth for a remake if you ask me.

    Chrono and Threads of Fate need sequels not remakes..
