Star Controller

Then there's Star Control II, which is fantastic!  It combines elements of RPGs, real‐time strategy and shooters and it's honestly one of the best games I have ever played.  If any game deserves an HD remake, it's this one!

I went through my daily routine of watching various video game trailers when I noticed that there was a video about the 3DO by Elder-Geek, an independent video game media website. It highlighted the 3DO and its downfall. What surprised me about this video is that Eliot mentioned Star Control II and that it deserves an HD remake.

Many of the 3DO videos I see rarely mention Star Control or even a desire for a remake/sequel.  A remake of Star Control II has been mentioned many times such as an Xbox Live Arcade remake.  If there was an HD remake, I would definitely get it.  With remakes of Call of Duty, A Boy and His Blob, Earthworm Jim, Banjo-Kazooie and Perfect Dark, I’d love to see Star Control II added to the list.  It’s obvious that video game remakes are becoming a trend and I don’t see why there can’t be a remake just because Star Control didn’t achieve skyrocketing sales.

Thanks Eliot for taking the time to mention Star Control II in your video.
