3. Road Rash
A Road Rash reboot was planned a few years back, but it ended up getting nixed, and weve not heard a thing since. This one should really be a no-brainer; give the game a new look, some gorgeous visuals, and release it as a more hardcore Burnout on bikes-type game. Can you imagine hurtling around a mountainous road with current-gen visuals, trying to knock other players off their bikes with nunchucks? Of course, such a game would have to be online, as this would give it the potential to be one of the most ludicrously entertaining online racers ever made. Also, what if the violence is ratcheted up a bit? Make it gory, give it realistic physics, and therefore allow us to delight in violently doing away with, say, 15 online opponents until one is left? This might not be quite what the original games were about, but wed love to see it all the same. Or perhaps were just sick in the head
