Crash Bandicoot: 10 More PS1 Classics That Deserve Remasters

3. Silent Hill

Silent Hill is one of the most influential video games of all time, and I firmly believe, without it, the horror game genre would not have evolved as much as it did the years following. Silent Hill went from the common campy horror, to psychological horror. It made you afraid of what was around you, afraid of what you didn't know was around you. All of this was done thanks to Konami hiding the PS1's limitations with a highly atmospheric and iconic fog.

Imagine what could be done with Silent Hill today, there would no longer be graphical limitations to overcome. And while that played to the game's favor back in 1999, today a graphical overhaul could as well. A dark, foggy and utterly gross and disgusting Silent Hill would take that psychological fear and tip it overboard. It's something fans would pay hand over fist for without doubt. Silent Hill 2 and 3 were already previously polished up and re-released, why not give fans the one they've been truly waiting for.

Things are looking grim for the Silent Hill franchise, and even though it wouldn't be something new so to say, this remaster could potentially breathe fresh air into a dying franchise's lungs.
