Remastered or Remake

I've been gaming for as long as I can remember and I've never known the industry to be so dedicated to remastering and remaking now, than ever before.

AoE, C&C, Commandos, Mafia etc.

Question is, if EA announced that there were to be no more sequels but that it would remaster or remake one of the four current games, which would you pick?

    I'd like a TS3 remake with a few features taken from other titles.

    TS2:
    • wants and fears
    • turn-ons and turn-offs
    • Open For Business retail system
    • animation details like opening cabinets while cooking


    TS4:
    • art style
    • build/buy and CAS interface
    • multitasking


    @TamakiSakura84 I completely forgot about the Turn Ons and Turn Offs system!

    Loved the Wants and Fears ♥ Had both minor and major things too.
  • As in making the game compatible with current computer systems I still play TS2 as is, but it needed a lot of tinkering and help from forum folks to get it running on Windows 10 The older graphics do not deter me at all, especially in many areas - particularly related to buildings and objects they are superior to the vaunted TS4.
  • I would love a remake of TS2 with only two changes: open neighborhoods and story progression with a functional toggle for those who don't want it.

    The main reason that TS3 is my favorite game of the series is that it had story progression and an open world full of Sims that were doing their own thing. In TS2, I disliked having to go around to families that I wasn't interested in, making them woohoo to have babies, or aging them up to keep the neighborhood on the same timeline. I have never liked having full rotational gameplay. I prefer to play one extended family along with some of its branches. I'd rather that the rest take care of themselves and surprise me with the outcomes.
  • This was hard... I'd probably just want to keep playing Sims 4, but if they could remake it with more life stages and non-mutual relationships, taht's what I"d want.
  • None of the above? I never look back darling, it distracts from the now. ;)

    Besides, I never want to go back to those empty TS2 worlds or the confusing and difficult to use CAS from TS3. And worst of all: Being trapped in one world all together. *shudders* Those were dark times indeed.

    And Sims 1, well, there are a whole heap of problems with that one that make me never want to touch it again.
  • Rabbit holes! Wish there was more active jobs. Some of the base games ones because for the other ones you NEED to get packs and not everyone can afford that :(
  • Go for The Sims 4 Graphical Remaster because it should be released to PS5 & Xbox Series X.

    No question its Sims 2 for me all I would really want to see is graphics update and a body type slider added.
  • Sims 1 to be played in native widescreen on higher resolutions would be great, I wouldn't even want any real graphical updates aside from the UI to work on widescreen and removal of old dead web buttons.
