Can we just keep this on topic about Myth and keep the Marathon jibber jabber to threads about Marathon?
The post is on topic for the most part. I stated my reasoning for remaking a new game, and i stated suck/dislike RTT, so i wouldnt remake it or buy it. There is nothing wrong with adding a little more depth/discussion to a thread.

ix forte xi,
yeah i totally agree it does have to be one helluva game to be remade, and Myth was that good. a little known fact is that Myth already has many more features than current games in the genre have... and the game was made 13 years ago.
besides just cause remade shooters by other companies have sucked doesn't mean they didn't turn a profit, or that Bungie couldn't do it better.
one of the reasons those remade shooters sucked is because there is a lot more competition these days. for the Myth genre that isn't really the case.
Bug fixes have progressed on the engine for 10 years by volunteers as a hobby, so the game is already pretty bug free. if graphics could be improved without making too many new bugs then i don't see how it couldn't be a winner!
I don't think the point of remaking older games is to compete with newer games. Its to show the game how developers want it, with new updated graphics, gameplay, etc.
Your entitled to your own opinion, so if you think that Myth was that good of a game, cool! I personally don't find it as such (partly because i dislike RTT), so i answered the OP's question. No i wouldn't.
