Games that Need to be Modified and Ported (cont.)

Luigi's Mansion (Should be ported to 3DS, Wii U, Android, IOS )

Granted, the Wii definitely wasn't Nintendo's greatest accomplishment, but a game like Luigi's mansion would have been interesting to try with the Wii's control scheme. With a sequel for the 3DS arriving at the end of the year,  porting the original to the 3DS would serve no purpose aside from exposing newcomers to the original game before they play the new game. However, I do believe this would be an interesting game to play on other mobile devices, because, while its highly unlikely Nintendo will ever release an Android or Ios compatible game, there are very few games available on any app stores that are bearable to play for more than 20 minutes (examples include Resident Evil 4 and Carnivores), and games like this would definitely change that. At the very least, it would be satisfactory if they ported this game to the upcoming Wii U.


Cryostasis: The Sleep of Reason (Should be Ported to Ps3, X-box 360)

Admittedly I haven't played much of this game myself, but from watching others play (directly and by watching gameplay footage), I can easily justify why a game like this should be ported to current generation consoles:
    1: While there appears to be some highly noticeable and inconvenient bugs and problems with the graphics, these could be fixed, and because this is one of the game's most noticeable issues, the quality of the game overall would be greatly enhanced. If ported to a high definition system such as the Ps3, this game would look very impressive.
   2: With a few exceptions (because there are always exceptions, with some exceptions of  course), the horror/ survival horror video game industry has been pretty weak lately. Personally, I haven't ventured into the Silent Hill series yet, so I can't dig too deeply into that grave, but upon perceiving the downfall of the Resident Evil series with the loss of the horror element, it's safe to assume that many current developers believe horror games don't stand a chance against larger and (excuse my very opinionated description) over-hyped action/ shooter games like Call of Duty. While this may seem like a depressing thought for survival horror enthusiasts at first, its leaves a generous space available for any developers who chose to embrace the genre. A game like this, which utilizes many major mechanics of survival horror, including a creepy plot which unfolds very slowly and mysteriously, dark and suspenseful environments, ways in which the player must work to maintain stable conditions, story telling through those who have already become victims of the horrifying danger(which is greatly enhanced by the ability to witness events from the eyes of victims through flash backs), would undoubtedly appeal to the curiosity and interest of many console gamers. If this game was to be ported to the Ps3 and X-box 360 and distributed as a downloadable game, the convenience of accessibility (along with a reasonable price) would eliminate any reasons not to purchase this game. If games of this style were to gain popularity, either more popular series, such as Resident Evil, would return to there roots, or new developers would fill the empty whole that said popular series has left empty with new and unique (and possibly better) games.
   3: Concepts such as trophies and achievements could be easily incorporated into such a game as this.


Call of Juarez (Should be ported to Ps3)

I could draft a large list of reasons why this game should be ported to the Ps3, and while many of those reasons would be fairly obvious to anyone who's played this series, and several of the others would bash Call of Duty and other over-hyped games, this will probably be much more bearable to the readers of this post:

This game (a prequel) was on Ps3:

The Original Wasn't. This needs to be fixed. End of Story.

Well, that's all I'll be adding for now. As stated in the last post,  we will be returning to this list in the coming days/ weeks, so be on the lookout for further additions. Thanks for reading!
