Top 5 Video Games That are Ready for HD

High-definition remakes are all the fad these days. With titles such as God of War and Sly Cooper receiving graphical overhauls to meet today’s visual standards, and with rumors regarding the popular ICO and Shadow of the Colossus games and their possible HD upgrades, it’s only normal to think about all the great games that would benefit from today’s popular HD movement. Here is a list of the top 5 video games that would look awesome in hi-def.

Twisted Metal: Black

At this year’s E3, David Jaffe revealed the next entry in the Twisted Metal series. The game is currently slated for a release sometime in

2011. How awesome would it be if, between now and the game’s release, gamers got a chance to play an enhanced version of the much lauded Twisted Metal: Black? Not only would this give longtime fans a chance to play one of the best games in the series with all-new visuals and maybe some added content, but it would also allow newcomers to get into the series.

The Warriors

In 2005, The Warriors seemingly put 3D beat ‘em ups back on the map by delivering an exciting brawler that retained everything great about

the genre and added to it with engaging side quests and interesting mechanics. Unlike many movie-to-video game adaptations, The Warriors actually did the 1979 cult film justice and provided a gaming experience that could be enjoyed by gamers familiar with the movie and those who had never heard of it. Given the care that goes into making HD versions of great games, it would be nice if the Warriors came out to play one more time.
