I believe this will mostly affects games which were lacking in technology.

I'd personally LOVE to see The Sims 1 or The Sims 2 re-released with performance and resolution upgrades, and, most importantly, made to be open world. Since they're older, I believe they could very easily render the entire map like The Sims 3, but with the charm of TS1 or TS2.

I cannot think of other games, since most games I see as adequate, whereas TS1 and TS2 were bound by system performance during their respective times.

Holy crap you just awakened an ancient memory of me as a little kid, playing this game on an MS-DOS PC of some kind at one of my relatives house. I didn't know what this game was called until now, I just remember being amazed how much more advanced it was compared to the Sega Genesis games I was playing at the time.

They should most definitely do an update to that. I never played another game like it.

I only remembered about it recently! 20 years ago I had a site where I'd upload my favourite replays http://web.archive.org/web/20051208051957/http://daniel15.da.funpic.org/stunts.htm
