GameDynamo - "This is not a list of the top most disappointing video games, but the five most disappointing moments in otherwise good video games. I'm talking about a moment that made you wonder: "Is this really happening?"... and not with a sense of awe or wonder, but instead, deep disappointment. The best way to illustrate is to dive right in. ***Warning, there are SPOILERS!***"
Plenty of unforgettable games have completely messed up their players throughout the years, all the way back from the PS1 days to the dark recesses of the modern internet.
With hundreds of games, some of which are considered to be classics that hold up to this day, you’ve got the pick of the litter when it comes to choosing a potential remake
^This. THIS!
Stop remaking PS4 games!
Remake PS1 and PS2 games à la FF7R, RE1, Mafia, Half Life style ....
Make Legend of Dragoon, Legacy of Kain etc Remakes happen
I wonder if their mindset is like “meh we have Final Fantasy what’s the point of our own JRPG”
@-Foxtrot,
Square-Enix had a long period there where it seems they didn't know what to do with Final Fantasy, I think that time period would have been a good time to revisit their classics and remake them. Now it seems they're going full steam ahead with the franchise, so they have less reason to revisit those older games. I wouldn't mind if they subcontracted them out to other developers, that and I don't trust SE to remake their older games.
Simply because i do not think it will succeed.. maybe a bad example but e we got Medievil remake after many years fans have beg asking... result is It flopped hard. Remaking a JRPG is so risky. Only a bunch of hardcore gamers who played the original would buy it. If Sony put even more budget into it then it’s even more risky.
As i suggested before, i think they should start remaking like square did with Star Ocean. Or something similar to Octopath Traveller. Build up some hype and try on higher scale later on..
Let me tell you about PS1 games that should get a remake actually.
Jumping Flash (As a VR game)
Ridge Racer 1-4 as Ridge Racers 3..just like the pretty perfect PSP RR1.-2 games but with even more content
Xenogears
Cardinal Sin which was full of nice ideas for its time but was plagued by technical limitations
Bushido Blade ^^ just like CS
Bust A Groove.
WWF Attitude. With the same roster, same voices,Only slightly updated gameplay but current gen graphics
Dynasty Warriors..yes the fighting game that was similar to Tekken 2 while it had weapons.As nice as the DW games are..its a shame they never released a new fighting game
And while I am at it.
Thrill Kill ...hell yes.
Ah Thrill Kill, the game that was banned/cancelled but everyone had played 😂 what a throwback!
jumping Flash would make a great VR game. Im actually quite surprised nobody has thought to do that one... even on the indie side for something like the meta quest.
Big yes to Jumping Flash! and Ridge Racer revivals. Bushido Blade was cool as well; it was pretty deep and so much different from other fighting games at the time. Einhander was another good non-RPG from Square, which was kind of rare for them in that era.
Didn’t Thrill Kill eventually get re-skinned and released with a Wu-Tang Clan license? 😂
I miss Ridge Racer so much, give me a new game or at least a collection of the older games! I had a blast playing Ridge Racer PSP on my PS4 a few months back.
I cannot understand the current business practice of remaking games from the previous generation, especially when they are very much playable today and still hold up well, it's even worse when people are willing buying them again. The PS1 generation is so ripe for remakes, I know more than a few people who would clamour for a Xenogears remake, or almost any game from that list.
and Valkyrie Profile Lenneth. They did Star Ocean 1 & 2 R already, VPL should get the same treatment.
I assume this to mean that you aren't considering the PSP port to be the remake in this statement? Like a remake of that one?
That version is quite old though, that was 18 years ago, so doing a remake in the vain of Star Ocean might be worth it (I did not think the PSP was that old until I looked it up).
I'd be down for FF8, and Xenogears. But I would also be down for Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross. And I wish Namco would get off their ass and remake or remaster the Xenosaga trilogy.
There's been talk of a Xenosaga trilogy on the proviso that there was enough demand, I hope that actually happens one day.

Why does From Software not do ANYTHING with this franchise... It's so sad... Can't they at least outsource it to someone to try a revival?
Deadly Premonition is a pretty weird game, but all of these absolute oddities are even weirder.
the Ending of Halo 2 should be on the list.
I have to say my most disappointing moment in a video game was the ending of Beyond Good & Evil. I thought everything was over, but no. To top it off, the cliffhanger leads to a sequel that was never made. What a shame!
The ending of 2033 disappointed me, I thought it would be a bit more satisfying but it was more of a whimper than a bang. Having said that, I will be going through it again at some point because the rest of the game is awesome.
I'm really tired of the complaints over this scene from Metroid other m. I mean imagine some guy killed your parents when you were a child, and you thought you had already taken care of him. Then all of a sudden he reappears perfectly fine, wouldn't you, even if just for a moment, flash back to the terror you had when you were a child? Now I admit the scene was really over the top, but since when has Nintendo NOT been over the top with anything they do? And just because you want to see Samus as some emotionless killing machine, it does not mean that's what they had in mind even with the first Metroid game. Samus has always shown emotion in subtle ways, and I feel it shows more strength that she overcame the sudden flashback of fear and still kicked his ass. I bet any of you people who complained about this would piss your pants and just die in a situation like that. And I know I'm going to get a lot of disagrees but I couldn't care less, I thoroughly enjoyed Metroid other m and you can't change my mind about it. I've already played it like 5 times, and no I didn't skip even one cutscene.
Where the hell is Shenmue?
