Spork3245 Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Duke Nukem Forever? RELEASED The Last Guardian? RELEASED FF7: Remake? REMADE Is Half-Life 3 the last running joke? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 I see people requesting Dino Crisis any time an REmake is being talked about. People still want a Pokemon MMO. It is more rare, but I see some people asking for OoT to be remade. Not sure if they of that reaches mythical status. I don't think so, but that is all I got.

crispy4000 Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Metroid Prime 4 Beyond Good & Evil 2 Kojima making P.T. Psyconauts 2 Skies of Arcadia and Baten Kaitos Origins sequels never got far enough off the ground. People would freak if a new Chrono game got announced. It’s been decades now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commissar SFLUFAN Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 How are we defining "mythical"? Are we talking about games that we wish would be made or are we talking about games that we know are theoretically in development? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoberChef Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 While not "mythical", I know I personally would freak out SO HARD for A new Soul Reaver (preferably done with Amy Hennig) A new Tie Fighter space combat sim Syphon Filter (preferably console agnostic but I'd understand if it was only for Sony) A new Splinter Cell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we talking about games that we wish would be made or are we talking about games that we know are theoretically in development? Games of huge franchises (Last Guardian falls under Ico/Shadow of the Colossus) that were/are supposed to be coming and then disappeared and have basically become a meme/joke. So far I don’t feel like anything mentioned meets the level from the 4 in the OP. Unannounced things that people would freak out about don’t fall under this.

stepee Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 I think Beyond Good & Evil 2 actually being a thing that is real and releases will be the closest, yeah. I think that’s probably at least close to Last Guardian for this. Besides Half Life 3 of course, Left 4 Dead 3 maybe? I’m pretty sure it was being worked on at one point. Agent and Deep Down?

Paperclyp Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 I agree @Spork3245 I don't think any have been mentioned yet that really qualify. I don't think this does either but if enough years go by I think Bloodborne remake or 2 may reach that status (though I think we're gonna see a sequel announced in the next year or two). Not really the same thing but sort of in the same realm is a new NCAA football game. Maybe Silent Hills? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, BG&E2 is definitely the closest to matching what’s in the OP as to what’s been mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 I'd say a remake of Demon's souls counts. There is also Deep Down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacon Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Like, imo, it totally counts tho. I mean, from my perspective Duke Nukem Forever isn't anything I consider mythical. I hadn't even heard of the series until the big flop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, I was 3-4 when it came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paperclyp Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 I was alive and aware of Duke Nukem and never had any reverence for it. Lol'd with a buddy who showed me a few of the jokes, which we were the appropriate age for. I dunno, looking back I think if you were like in your 20s and thought that game was funny maybe that's kind of embarrassing? Maybe I'm not giving time and place enough credit though. Just seems like the only people who should have been laughing at that were younger teenagers who shouldn't be playing it... I always felt that way about Conker as well. But I'm probably just a spoil sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm probably just a spoil sport. It came out at a time that there weren't very many good FPS games. The gaming market also skewed much younger than it does today. The legend of Duke Nukem forever grew driven by the constant marketing releases / gaming press coverage through the years -- IMHO, it made it into a much bigger thing that the previous game was. I only played a couple of levels of it -- it never grabbed me -- however, the "Balls of Steel" meme endured for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
