Which Mac games need a modern do-over?

okay, seeing as how the Marathon series had a modern do-over (Aleph One)
and Doom had one (Doomsday), what other games need a do-over? what game
do you think would look best in high-resolution? I'm thinking maybe Killing Time, or Prime Target, what with the election coming up and all...still nothing for Wolf 3d, well
not yet....

any replies welcomed

JB

I'd like to see the slightly old Abuse take on a new Mac OS X life. I loved that game, though it was demo on the school Macs in my junior high school years, Abuse was downright awesome!

I recently played Marathon Resurrection which was redone with the Unreal Tournament engine. Excellent remake.
I agree that the original Abuse game was great and would be good with an update and the original Carmageddon was great driving game although a little morbid.

I'd like to see a new Deus Ex, and a new Wolfenstein.
