Granted that they are fairly recent games but I would like to see Motorstorm and Wipeout on PS4

Motorstorm is a good shout, I loved the first one, alittle disappointed with the second (too many obscure routes for my liking).

Test Drive Unlimited but with a slightly sharper physics engine (though it was okay IMO) but mainly... SMOOTH ROADS. The engine couldn't cope and ended up with jagged rises which made things a bit sketchy.

Test drive unlimited 2 sorted the roads issue but unfortunately they allowed a window licker to design the car physics and completely ruined it. I put about 400 hours in to TDU1 on the 360 and TDU2 probably got about 5. Major disappointment.

Star Wars Supremacy (rebellion outside the UK)? I'll second that. Didn't get good reviews but was the best star wars strategy game.

I still play the original "Virus" - "Zarch" on the Archimedes. That'd be cool.

My vote goes to the Cinemaware catalogue. A few, like Rocket Ranger were in progress but got canned (via Kickstarter) so there is continued hope.

Would love to see state of decay re-made with a bigger budget, one of the best arcade games I've bought.

Also it would be nice if they could put in a proper sandbox, rather than "here's the last of the money, hope you're good in the casino?", that really sucked.

Very happy they've announced a proper Resident Evil 2 remake, since the HD version of the original was fantastic, expanding the game and adding a few gameplay changes that notched up the tension. I'd love a remake of Duke Nukem 3D (Forever wasn't as bad as a lot of people say, but certainly no classic), Destruction Derby, the original Command and Conquer before it went all sci-fi, and Rogue Squadron

Talking about Spectrum games...3D Ant Attack. I know there is a PC port but I would like a true 3d version of rescuing the girl.
