What really deserves a remaster/remake?

[Lord Golbez]

Konami has been updating the Suikoden website recently and while fans brace themselves for either a pachinko machine or mobile title, Konami could do a bit of fan salvaging by releasing a remaster of some of the older entries. A remastered port of the PSP Suikoden I-II would be nice, but even a remaster of any of the PS2 entries would be appreciated, especially since last I checked, SIV and SV never got released for PSN. A collection would be quite nice a la ".hack" variety.

From Squenix, I would love a remaster of either Xenogears or Vagrant Story. For Xenogears, I simply want a new cleaned up translation and maybe new VA work with simple graphical/audio updates that wouldn't need any new character models.

Some more playing and less telling for the disc 2 portion would also be appreciated. For Suikoden IV, the "remaster" should include a rewrite. New plot, new characters. Just scrap the old game and give us a good one. Suikoden III and Suikoden V really do deserve remasters though. In particular, it would be nice if Suikoden III improved its travel system so you don't have to move through every region to get to where you want to go before acquiring Viki. Maybe if they included a world map instead, Viki would have a useful role, but the way it stands, it wastes too much time. Huge quality of life improvement. For Suikoden V, it would be nice if they improved visual details. As I recall the game frequently, looked rather drab and lacking in details. Take advantage of graphical improvements to make it more aesthetically pleasing.
