	The other favorite game thread got me thinking about my gaming history, and I was wondering what dead franchises others would like to see revived. Personally I want to see a new Parasite Eve game come to PS4. I put so many hours into 1 and 2...

	I'd like to see Wing Commander re-launched with today's graphics.

	Baldur's Gate, a new game, not a remake. Half-Life, cause seven years and still no ep.3 or HL3. Lands of Lore, loved Guardians of Destiny. Vampire: The Masquerade, another game would be sweet. Xenogears 1-2-3-4-6 as originally planned. No, it's not what Xenosaga did.

I remember the first time I saw Pool of Radiance, I was drooling and I was like "OMG! D&D on computer with sound effects and such..!" Just wanted remember what D&D computer games have been released up to now. Here it is for other curious souls: List of Dungeons & Dragons video games

	Oh just thought about something I'd really like to see again : The Steel Panther Serie. They were great wargame simulations and were fun to play.

I'd check that out. I likes vampire quite a bit. I spent some solid hours around a table playing that thing.

Ah yes, System Shock - the best game that (for the most part) no one ever heard of.� I guess you could say that Deus Ex (another great one) kind of picked up where SS2 left off, at least in spirit. I still can't believe NOLF didn't keep going for at least one more iteration - great humor in that game.� Also, what other game had snow-mobile kills?� I blame the hugely unbalanced multi-player.

	I may have already referred to the MMo "sequel" in a different thread, but Legacy Of Kain/Soul Reaver was always a good series, I thought.

	I too would mention System Shock (2), but an argument could be made that Bioshock continued the franchise.
