Of all things that could get a remake, this one is likely the most “why?” of all time.
It’s truly a great game, but I’m unsure what a remake will bring.
Think outside the box. The remake could have support for up to 10 brothers, so long as you connect that many analogue sticks, and you control one per finger. Add a character creator, enhance it to a strand type game, support for more languages, skill-based online co-op, and reimagine it as an open-world sandbox. :')
It does, and that might be a nice experience, but I feel like the one player/two sticks mechanic was kind of the main point of it.
I don’t feel like the game would have had the same impact on me, if I co-oped it like I did with It Takes Two (which was designed as a co-op experience).
We truly live the era of remakes. I’d rather devs made new games instead.
Same. I can replay old games and still enjoy them if the gameplay is good. I’ve been wanting to replay Jack and Daxter again. I don’t need the graphics updated. That damn polygon fish will still make me squirm with the increasing heartbeats…
How about a sequel instead? The game isn’t even very long
Not that much sequel material in my opinion. Did you have anything in mind?
Not really lol. But a similar game with different characters in a different setting would probably be good.
Hmmm. I own it but haven’t ever played it. Are there bad controls or other bugs or quirks with the original… You know, something that would justify a remake?
I played it way back when and tried it again after it takes two. Proper co-op would be great, for me
The control scheme and lack of coop are fundamental to the design and story telling of the game. The only game i have played that tells a story through actual gameplay. Playing it solo and with a controller are a must.
I actually played it with my son coop a decade ago when he was quite young, he’d sit in my lap and we’d each have one hand on the controller. We played it through that way and had a blast. I remember him being quite scared at some points, and the game was an emotional rollercoaster, but we very much enjoyed playing it together and I could see it working as a coop game.
Co-op would a antithesis to entire design of the game. Thw unique control scheme is central to its story. Two sons is a great single player game to wrap your head around what are fairly basic puzzles, but having two players would just be bland and generic, It was never intended for two people, and to make remake it as on would essentially be making a entirely separate game
Meh, I want to play it with my daughter not write a thesis.
To be clear I just wanted the option to play that way, not for it to be the only way to play!
