Sony may not be a huge fan of backwards compatibility – or is that just Jim Ryan, mayhaps? – but it seems to be going all in on PlayStation 4 remakes and remasters. The past few months alone have plotted the release of PaRappa the Rapper and LocoRoco, and both Patapon and Shadow of the Colossus are still to come.
And speaking on PlayStation Live earlier today, Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida said the following: “We are listening to the fans to bring back whatever they tell us to consider.” In other words, if there’s a particular franchise or classic game you’d like to make a comeback, now’s the time to start making some noise.

Loved syphon filter personally
Crash Team Racing!!
Dreaming for Spyro, Sly Cooper, & Jak & Dexter as collections or preferably new entries!!
Does that mean Shu's been listening in on our internal conversations @get2sammyb? Can't say I've seen anyone else begging for Shadow of the Colossus on PS4.
@ShogunRok The Sony ninjas see all.
@get2sammyb Good to know we hold so much sway.
Yeah? The where the f*ck Is Jak & Daxter?
two games i would like see to come on ps4 is Fur fighters and shinobi as well jak & daxter musty i played them three lot on ps2
Parasite Eve 1 & 2.
@itshoggie All four are coming as PS2 Classics.
Medievil (though that already had a remake)
Twisted Metal
Syphon Filter
Colony Wars
Ape Escape
Ico
Spyro trilogy (I'm calling it, that's going to be Shawn Layden's shirt at PSX)
Infamous 1 and 2, Resistance series, Tobal 2, Dark Cloud, Timesplitters, Black, Mark of Kri, Onimusha, Manhunt, Dead Space series.
A bad*** medievil remake would be hype.
The Legend of Dragoon ! I know the game was hated on alot but I personally loved it . Beating it was one of my big accomplishments in life for my 10 year old self = )
@Themanhutch best ps1 game ever
Legend of Dragoon, The Getaway, Killzone series (1-3, Liberation, Mercs), Soul Sacrifice, Infamous and Demon's Souls are definitely good choices. Maybe even King's Field, with a WAY more improved combat (like Skyrim's but better) and exploration, a balanced difficulty, objective hints and heck, VR support.
Also, a re-release of Freedom Wars for both PS4 and PS Vita is a must.
@Themanhutch I remember the bridge level blowing my mind. Imagine crossing hand over hand. =Mind blown
Since Activision owns Spyro, I can only imagine that if the Crash remake does well, they'll very much consider a Spyro the Dragon remake as well. I called it here first.
I'd like to see: Medievil, Syphon Filter, Alundra, Warhawk, G-Police (didn't they renew a trademark recently), Overboard! (because pirates are all the rave now), Tomba, Bloody Roar, The Getaway & Socom. Should do for now
@SoulsBourne128 I hope Sony revisits Freedom Wars loved that game so much . Hopefully they won't let that IP go to waste .
Just give me a Spyro Trilogy remake, and I'll never complain about anything again.
And I barely complain as it is, so you might as well just put a cap on that.
Incredible crisis, please
Got to be Destruction Derby
Chrono cross and chrono trigger remakes on PS4 would be awesome! Not a clue how Sony/Square Enix could get this to work. Other gems include thunderforce, Spyro, fighting force and alundra!
we need a new wild Arms battle arena Toshinden Akuji the heartless Lomax legend of legaea Arc the lad and folklore game
Definitely wouldn't mind seeing infamous make the remaster jump to ps4. As for the real older gen games, ssx, drakon the ancients gates (if anybody even remembers that game lol) mgs collection, siphon filter, cool boarders, road rash? If it's even possible?
@get2sammyb I know that and can't wait to play them. But I'dove an actual remake of one.
And by "4", what's the fourth? Thought it was just Jak 1.2. & 3.
@itshoggie Gotcha! And the fourth I'm referring to is the racing one.
@get2sammyb ah,didn't think that was getting one too. Is it any good? Even the thought of that just brings me back to the Crash Racing remake. We need a decent "Kart" game on PS4.
.hack//Infection
.hack//Mutation
.hack//Outbreak
.hack//Quarentine
@ApostateMage Yes yes please. But there are so many good ideas Legend of Dragoon, Dark Cloud, Koudelka, Roque Galaxy, medievil, Syphon Filter, Heavenly Sword, Ni No Kuni, ICO, Twisted Metal World Tour, Demon Souls, Soul Sacrafice.
Parasite Eve remake and please try to do it right.
@Gold_Ranger One of them is getting an HD version.
I know fans already tried via a petition, Xenosaga trilogy remastered or at least PS2 Classics on PS4.
Where can we tell them what we want? I tried replying on twitter if that helps?
Ew. The remake/remaster is .hack//G.U.
I'm quite lost on this, aside from Crash, I feel like I've only noticed Playstation's exclusives on PS3, and that's so recent that I'm not really expecting remakes, they already made the most interesting ones... But Shadow looks interesting. I played Ico back on PS2, and I didn't like it very much, people always talked about Ico when mentioning Shadow back then, so I skipped Shadow. Glad to have a new opportunity.
If 3rd parties were choices, though, I'd ask for Ni No Kuni remaster. Level-5 + Studio Ghibli = perfect game. =)
Spyro! Spyro! SPYRO!
I'd like them to remake Kingdom Hearts a few more times before releasing 3 🤣🙄
Jak & Daxter, The Getaway , Eight Days
Final Fantasy Tactics !!!
PS2 Berserk, Silent Bomber, Tobal No.1, Jet Moto
G-police
Colony Wars
Rage Racer
Syphon Filter
Klonoa (I know it's Namco but...)
Porsche Challenge
@get2sammyb I dont like that i rather see something like Rachet & Clank. Even 1080p does not change the fact its looking outdated.
@oatmealwarrior92 Who hates that game needs a beating lol. I loved that game so much.
Omg, there's so many remastered ps1/ps2 classic that I want, I don't know where to start.
From square ps1 games (final fantasy tactis, eihander, front mission 3, vagrant story) to sony own (colony war, wipeout collection 2, jax & daxter remake, not ps2 classic) to other games (castlevania sotn, okami hd, ridge racer 1-4 remastered).
From all that the one I want most is castlevania sotn, okami hd and ridge racer remastered 1-4.
There are a lot of classic games could be my demand for a remake for PS4 but ICO is the one game that really have a special place for me & wish it could make into the remake list since now that Shadow of the Colossus remake is on the way.
Love both on PS3 & still playing both games recently. Definitely will buy both again if a remake does happen for ICO.
G-Police and Colony Wars, please! Loved G-Police.
Hey Capcom likes to port games right? I mean, look at the RE series. So can we get Okami on PS4 please? That'd be sweet. As for Sony stuff, I'd like to see the first Jak game get the Ratchet and Clank treatment.
Castlevania symphon of the night, Medieval, The Getaway, Resident Evil 2 (I know Capcom said they were doing it but have we heard anything since?) and GTA Vice City which is still easily my favourite but it'd be nice to play with updated controls and graphics
Onimishu,
vagrant story,
the ps2 baulders gate games
R type final (impossible, I know)
Tenchu
Bushido blade
Soul reaver
Tenchu: stealth assasins for me! Absolutely loved those games.
I would legit flip out if we see Sir Fortesque coming back in HD
My childhood game to beat all childhood games
@7yL3rB with the love and effort Capcom have put into remastering Resident Evil games, it would be awesome if they did the same for Dino Crisis 1 and 2.
Okami!
@Marios-love-child Heck yes!
I'd love a White Knight Chronicles remaster. I remeber spending hours levelling up in its MMO like online multiplayer and building my village with the georama tool like in the Dark Cloud series. It never got the best reviews but I always have fond memories of it.
Came believe nobody has said Metal Gear Solid?! Feckin loved that game! Oh yeah Shenmue 1+2, though they are not PS games, they could be...
Syphon Filter needs a reboot/remake.
I want to see a Jak & Daxter remake. If they can do it for Ratchet & Clank, why not J & D as well?
There are a number of games I loved but think I would rather see them rebooted than remade. The Resistance trilogy on PS3 would be good as a remaster collection to come before a Resistance 4 (I know we had a Resistance on Vita but not really '4' - maybe like Golden Abyss could be reworked as a 'bonus' or part of a reworked 'Vita' collection with Killzone etc), Motorstorm was good too...
Grandia 1-3
Parasite Eve 1-2
Medieval
(Spyro 1-5
Ape Escape
Buzz
Ico
Syphon Filter
Twisted Metal
Socom Us Navy Seals
If they are remaking Shadow of the Colossus, they should remake Ico as well.
"Vagrant Story" please.
killzone 2/3 - i'd rather see it completely rebooted though. shadow fall wasn't nearly as good.
resistance - mostly resistance 3 which was by far the best of the series. another i'd prefer to be rebooted though - i'd personally give insomniac another shot at it. i know R3 was the least successful commercially, but critically it scored very well indeed.
motorstorm - don't tend to like racers in general, but pacific rift and apocalypse were a bit of a blast.
MAG - another i'd prefer to see an actual sequel than a remake/remaster. it had a lot of potential that zipper didn't quite pull off. whether it was too much of a technical challenge for PS3 i don't know. it just really needs to have the shooting mechanics tightened up, and the visuals modernised.
or as somebody else suggested.. a best of vita collection, which has killzone mercenary, uncharted: golden abyss, unit 13..
Ridge Racer Collection
Final Fantasy 9
Wipeout 1, 2097, wip3out collection
Ico
Soul reaver
Vagrant story
Freedom fighters
I didn't have a PS3, so another Ico remake please.
ICO, Rollcage, more Ratchet and Sly please!
@adf86 Crossout is a great replacement for twisted metal!
@Dodoo Roll cage is waaaaay overdue!!!!
Metal Gear Solid 1 & Resident Evil 3.
Onimusha and Timesplitters !
@TheBatman I think Spyro could be done if Crash N sane does well for Acti
I want a series collection of Jak and Daxter, Sly Cooper, Ratchet & Clank, and Ape Escape.
DINO CRISIS! Personally, I would like to see all the OG tony hawk games remastered. Licensing nightmare of course, but a man can dream.
Ico, Onimusha, Soul Reaver 1/2/Defiance, Ape Escape, Tenchu.
@Kieron So agree, loved that game!
I have a feeling it was developed by Psygnosis which I think Sony ended up buying (and closing) so they probably own the IP anyway?!
"UGH! All Sony ever does is remake games! Ever hear of backwards compatibility?!"
Article about remasters gets over 80 comments asking for countless different remakes
I want to see Capcom remake or reboot Maximo and Viewtiful Joe.
Clearly looking forward to a Dragon Tales PS1 Remake.
Gex / Croc / Black /Legend of Legaia / Twisted Metal
Syphon Filter / ModNation / Tenchu / Bushido Blade /
@ShogunRok savage
Primal & Ghosthunter would be grand. Still graphically amazing for the Ps2, so they would at least have more time to shore up the somewhat clunky gameplay that reared it's head on the odd occasion. A full blown sequel to Primal on Ps4 would be preferable though
SSX 3
Everyone has mentioned the obvious ones but i would like to see the game Scaler remastered that game was my childhood
Remake:
Timesplitters
Silent Hill 1 & 2
Final Fantasy Tactics
Joust, Space Invaders, Asteroids...
Work with Activision again and get the original Spyro games remade.
MediEvil for PS4 needs to happen now.
I want Vib Ribbon remaking, and it hooks up to my Spotify and makes levels out of my playlists.
Oh, I bet they like remakes and remasters.
I bet they like charging a new price tag for an old game as well.
And they like it even more if we rebuy all the games, we already bought before, all over again.
Very Nintendo.
@Kyroki Shame it didn't get funded. Was a favourite of mine too. Me and my friends must have put 100+ hours just into a free demo that came with a magazine!
Spyro trilogy and Metal Gear Solid. Yesterday, if at all possible.
Remake or Remaster:
Jade Cocoon
Legend of Dragoon
Threads of Fate
Grandia 2
Chrono Cross
And Tenchu Stealth Assassins
Simpsons hit and run
LEGACY OF KAIN, please!
MediEvil would also be acceptable!
@jacobia Yeah those games where awsome Regina come back and leave that horrible Xbox game in the darkness where it belongs.
My list:
Legend of dragoon
Spyro 1-3 collection
Medevil
Unjammer lammy
Tomb raider (all the ps1 games on a single disc)
And crash bash ( Or crash team racing!)
Soul Reaver (with all the cut parts put back in.)
Tomba!
Warhawk (ps3 version)
Infamous 1 and 2
Faxanadu (lol)
@KitsuneNight You can choose not to buy the remasters! But some of us don't mind splashing out again on our favourite games especially if they're improved by even a tiny bit like faster frame rates, sharper fonts, trophy support, higher texture rate, etc! And if there is no demand from gamers I'm sure a company wouldn't waste money remastering. Remastering creates jobs dude 😄.
Saddens me no-one even mentioned Shadow of Rome...
The gladiator fights were sooo awesome. I took the Octavianus bits for granted. A remaster would be great!
I'd die for remake. Same gameplay with current gen graphics. Man!
Oh, and a NFS Underground remaster! No open world, but great racing and customisations!!
Demon's Souls
MotorStorm collection
Ridge Racer 7
Grandia 1 remake plz
PlayStation 1, 2 & 3 Games i want to see come true on PS4 as Remasters
Crash Bandicoot Games On PS2 Remastered
Resident Evil 2 & 3 Remastered
Tomb Raider Collection Remastered
Syphon Filter Collection Remastered
Spyro Collection Remastered
Gex Collection Remastered
Dino Crisis Collection Remastered
Metal Gear Solid Collection Remastered
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater Collection Remastered
Max Payne Collection Remastered
MotorStorm Collection Remastered
NFS Collection Remastered
Tomba! Collection Remastered
MediEvil Collection Remastered
Twisted Metal Collection Remastered
Ape Escape Collection Remastered
Jak and Daxter Collection Remastered
Ratchet & Clank Collection Remastered
How about Burnout Takedown and Revenge!!!! Best arcade racers ever. Also Freedom Wars would be a kick. And the first 3 Tomb Raiders, Baldurs Gate Dark Alliance, Spiderman ps2 (that's what I hope this new one will be like: open world NY to stick my webs). So many good times!!!!
I really would like to see a re-invention of the series the bouncer for ps2. Maybe platinum games. And also clocktower!
I would love a Spyro rremaster but with Activision. Holding the rights I doubt it will ever happen.
@KitsuneNight I guess a lot of people love to see games remake just like me. I dont like the PS2 remasters it looks old and dissapointing that why i like remasters. Rachet & Clank was a fantastic remake Crash Bandicoot looks fantastic if its done good i rather have that then play a 10 year old game. If Dino Crisis gets a remake i would buy straight away.
Wow! So many good games named here. Quite nostalgic reading through them. If I had to pick tho I have to go for Destruction Derby, so many hours in that one, and a reboot would be sick
I would personally love to see Syphon Filter remade, it's been far to long since we last saw Gabe Logan and the gang. It ticks all the boxes for me. SoC was in my opinion one of the greatest games of all time, the remake looks epic. Day 1 purchase for me, do us proud Bluepoint!!
Pretty much everything that has been said here, plus of course that long-overdue revamp of 'No-one Can Stop Mr Domino'. I assume Sony's top bods are discussing it as we speak. Oh, and Suikoden.
Aside from the obvious Crash Team Racing and Spyro redo-requests, I'd love a full remake of The Getaway.
I'm still hopeful that Getaway 3 will finally go back into development but every year it seems more and more unlikely.
Wipeout 2097....it had the best handling and atmosphere of the series. The way the back of the ship would swing out around the corners. That, and Burnout Takedown, pure arcade goodness
King's Field and Shadow Tower - redone - like Demon's Souls
Red Dead Redemtion - PS3 version was the ugly and glitchy.
Dead Space 1-3 (PS3)
Puppeteer (PS3)
Portal 1-2 (PS3)
Deus X Human Revolution director's cut (PS3)
Max Payne 3 (PS3)
Project Zero (PS2) 1-3 - remastered like resident evil 1.
Gitaroo Man (PS2)
@Flaming_Kaiser
While that is true, it's just money for old rope these days.
Especially if it's a ps3 " remaster". Despite what people may think, ps3 games don't look bad.
And those type of " remasters" generally are the laziest
@KitsuneNight This is a warning please watch the language -Tasuki-
Medievil NEEDS to come back.
Spyro, and Jak & Dexter..seriously?? What are you guys, 7? Hahahaha what a totally pointless waste that would be. I would rather see something remade that would actually benefit from being remade, like MGS, Legacy of Kain Series, Twisted Metal. You know, more grown-up games. 😂😂
Any game in the Siren series would be nice. I haven't heard a peep out of that series in sometime and it could use a fresh coat of paint. Since Konami has left the Silent Hill series to die in the fog, Sony would have the upper hand in that type of Horror Sub-Genre.
Wow... I am just shocked that out of all the games that are being requested, nobody bothered to mention a remake of Pac Man World 20th Anniversary.
The Legend of Dragoon! It's been 17 Years bring them back😢. I was never into rpgs until I played this game how I saved in the seventh grade to buy this game and held my backpack like a million dollars was inside. Greatness awaits bring them back😣👌
@oatmealwarrior92 Definitely legend of dragoon
I would love a Legend of Dragoon remake for ps4!!! Also the first 2 Medievil games, and cannot go wrong with Legend of Legaia!!!!
Not only do I want what everyone else requested, But also I want more Ratchet & Clank games...Especially a Going Commando remake!!
Legend of Dragoon all the way. Remake would be awesome.
@bbq_boy There was one more Chrono game that I can't remember. Maybe they should just make a trilogy
@ZurapiiYohane That was a reimagining not a remake and they don't need to do that just yet since they already have plans for J&D 4
Okay Sony listen up. Tales of Vesperia remaster, Tales of Innocence R to finally get translated and localized nation wide especially the west! Persona 1-3 could use remakes and or remasters as well. Okami remake would be nice. Xenosaga trilogy remaster would be nice a classic series made by Namco Bandi also a remake of the first four .HACK games would be great! Since a remaster wouldn't do the first four games any justice. Ty the Tasmanian Tiger remaster trilogy would be nice and last but not least... SPYRO THE DRAGON to get the SAME TREATMENT as Crash! A trilogy a remake of the first four games! I want all these other games but let's give Spyro some priority!
If SONY wants to listen to their loyal fans and ressurect more PlayStation classics, they really need to bring us a remastered collection of the original Spyro the Dragon trilogy and make more classic Spyro games in the style of the originals. I don't understand how a remastered collection of the Spyro hasn't even happened yet, fans have been clamoring it for about 13 years so it should have happened like 9 years ago.
Def Jam: Fight For New York
Please.
Parasite Eve 1 Remake would be great! That was a great PS1 Game that I think needs a full PS4 Remake.
Dear Sony,
Please try to work out a way to remaster the original Spyro the Dragon trilogy and revive the series entirely with follow up sequels that are way more comparable to the originals than all the other stuff that came after 2002 that made the series go dormant.
I want a remake or a sequel of Soul Sacrifice on ps4.
Spyro Trilogy!
Legend of dragoon
i want legend of legaia (psone) can be remake on ps4 . but not change story but add some newstory in every path of the characters .also add spme mysterius characters that can be unlock to hold the power of some raseru that still unknow for its masters . so i can buy ps4 with out thinking again and again
Also let's get a remake for Sucker Punch's old IP Rocket Robot on wheels!
Omg it has to be Resistance collection. Absolutely loved these games.
And how abou orange box for PS4
Grandia (Grandia 2 is one of my all time fave games)
Shadow of Memories/Destiny (brilliant game, has potential to be so much better)
Xtreme G Racing 3 (because of the Co-Op story mode)
Chaos Legion (good idea, can be much better if remade)
Diskworld
Medievil (of course)
Shenmue 1 and 2 (again some of my all time favorites)
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver
Command & Conquer(!!!!!!! cant stress enough how much i want this back)
Tenchu
Battle Arena Toshinden Series (Remake)
Crash Team Racing (Remaster)
Bushido Blade (Remake)
I would love to see Grandia (Ps1) remade if not remastered on the PS4. My partner is obsessed with the Crash Bandicoot trilogy and i was impressed with it's remastered graphics, doing something like this with Grandia would be a childhood dream come true. Also Battlefield 2.
Colony Wars,MTV Music generator from PS1,Metal Gear Solid
The Legend of Dragoon !!! The most beautiful story and game ever
Resistance for the love of anything. This game still has a cult following. Get your head out of your asses and get this done
I would like to request a game remastered for ps4 beatdown fists of vengeance best game I played on ps2
'GALERIANS' is a must! 'Future Cop: L.A.P.D.' would be cool, 'Silent Hill' badly needs a remake & 'Driver', 'Command & Conquer' (maybe?), 'Front Mission 3', 'Legend of Dragoon', 'Parasite Eve', 'Theme Hospital' (maybe) & how can you remake any Resi games & forget 'Dino Crisis'. 'Dino Crisis' is Resi, but with dino's & finally I don't think it needs a remake but can we have another 'Abe's Oddysee' adventure.
My favourite PS2 games I think deserve a remake would be 'Shadow Hearts', 'Shadow of Memories', 'Prince of Persia: Warrior Within', 'Cold Fear', 'Juiced', maybe 'Age of Empires' & the 'Lord of the Rings' games. (although I think there might be licensing issues for LOTR).
P.S...& if I forgot to mention any other gems, I can only apologise.
Summoner & Vagrant Story
From PS2:
Shadow Heart, Covenant
Shadow Hearts, From The New World
Valkyrie Profile 2, Silmeria
Lord of the Rings, The Return of the King
Radiata Stories
GrimGrimoire
Altered Beasts
Digital Devil Saga
lufia is one of my fav games that should be a remake
