I always had the idea that if I won a big lottery I would buy the rights to some of these really old games and hire people to update the graphics and re-release them.
lol
such a dream
Well when you win it, Get the rights to Xenogears for the Playstation 1 from Square.
I do not know who thought it would sell to the audience of the day but it is absolutely the deepest game with the most philosophical/ethical components I have ever played. And I am a pretty heavy gamer. It should have been targeted to adults capable of deep and complex thought, not teens.
Look it up on GameFAQs. Combines Christian themes, Neztchie (sp?), cyberpunk, intergalactic travel, bioethics, reincarnation, empire building and a million other ideas into a coherent whole.
And it’s 3 successors, the Xenosaga games re-imagine it on the PS2 and go 10 steps further still.
