What are some game series you would like to see revived? And if possible, which entry should the new game follow from? (piefed.social)

For example, for me, I would *love* a new Populous game based from what was done in Populous 3. That, and a new SimCity based on SimCity 4!

I'd love to see another Fallout game like 1 & 2.

THPS 3+4 please

The Saboteur had such great potential. I enjoyed the concept and the artistic use of color in the game.

The Darkness.

Also, Prototype, but someone already mentioned that.

Parasite Eve, hell even a remake of the first would be welcome

Earthbound. Even an official western release of Mother 3 would be nice.

There hasn't really been a good vehicular combat game in awhile, like Vigilante 8 or Twisted Metal

I also noticed there haven't really been any good couch party games besides Mario party; think Crash Bash, Pokemon stadium, fusion frenzy, and the like.

A new die hard trilogy game still based on the original movie trilogy but using a modern engine and graphics

I would love to see Homeworld 3. I know we have HW3, but what we got isn't Homeworld.

Sonic Riders, the currently dead Sonic racing spin-off. Don't have any experience with the third entry since I've never used a kinect, but building/branching off of Zero Gravity would be amazing.

I really want a Condemned 3 that wraps up Ethan vs SKX. They never got a proper final face-off in 2, and (spoilers) since SKX has joined the Oro and Ethan's unlocked his yelling power or whatever, it would be nice to have that loose end tied up.

The first Deception game by Tecmo. A pretty basic game in concept: Invaders come in your castle, you set up traps, lure them into the traps. But- Something about the limiting view of first-person, combined with the poorly lit castle, chilling music, and dark story tone has never been replicated. Add on how you could customize your castle with extra hallways and rooms with special attributes, capture invaders to make your own monsters, or even use masks to change the way invaders react to you... mmm, now I want to play it again.

I tried playing the second, third, and Trapt, but everything after the first game switched to a more action-oriented third person view and started to shy away from the heaven/hell connection.

I wouldn't mind if it was a game outside the Deception IP. I just want the atmosphere back.

I own Deception 4 on PS4, didn't know what the original was like. I think there's a lot of cartoony appeal in luring people into elaborate multi-stage death traps, but it's tricky to garner appeal out of more than just a lot of animation work for each variety of trap.
