Wet is as dumb as it always promised to be – fourteen stages of constant blasting with the occasional platforming interlude. There's blasting in corridors, blasting on the roofs of cars, blasting in arenas where you have to shut down the enemy's spawnpoints, and blasting with the screen painted red; there's blasting with pistols, shotguns, machine guns, and crossbows; and there's blasting in boxy locations in San Francisco, Hong Kong, London, and The Sky".

There were a number of cult classics that didn't sell like gangbusters, but still worked their way into gamers' hearts. Here's WWG list of nine great titles that deserve a second chance on newer consoles
I'll point out that these games are all from the X360/PS3 era - they've already had HD releases when they first came out. Split/Second and Blur - with the crazy vehicle physics capable today, why would we not want sequels to them?
The other games, all a matter of opinion of course, but... thank you for your ads between every single game. /s
Problem with sequels is that they aren't very likely. Activision dropped Blur like a bad habit, and Disney isn't doing games anymore. So I'll happily take the originals.
As much as I'd kill for a Demon's Souls remake, isn't likely. We'll probably get Bloodborne 2 instead.
Dafuq kinda title is that? These games were already released on HD consoles though...
Is the largely forgotten, 2009 game Wet worth a second look? Miguel Penabella considers the game in relation to grindhouse films and the phenomenon of the "B-game".
