Bluepoint has consistently done stellar work as the stewards of classic Sony IP like the God of War Collection, Uncharted: Nathan Drake Collection, Shadow of the Colossus Remake, and (fingers crossed) the Demon's Souls Remake. With Demon's Souls almost out, what Sony-owned games do you think they should remake next for the PS5?

I tried to select the options based on 4 criteria:
1. Games that haven't recently received remasters/ remakes/ reimaginings (MediEvil 1, Ratchet & Clank 1, WipEout collection, etc.)
2. If series have tons of entries (like Syphon Filter or Ratchet & Clank) then I only selected the first three, since that would be the natural starting point
3. PS3 is the cut-off point
4. Sony has to own or co-own the IP (so no Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill, etc.)

I tried to be comprehensive, but I'm sure there were things I might've overlooked, so my bad if there's something I forgot.

Too many options to fit on an Era poll, so the Strawpoll is here:
strawpoll.com

Which Sony-owned games should Bluepoint remake next? - Online Poll - StrawPoll

What's your opinion? Vote now: God of War 1-3, Jak and Daxter 1-3, Sly 1-3, Siphon Filter 1-3, Ape Escape 1-3, Twisted Metal 1-3, MediEvil 2, Tomba! 1 & 2, The Legend of Dragoon, Da...

Also this isn't a thread to talk about how you want them to make their own IP after Demon's Souls. That would be awesome and could very well happen, but it's also likely that they'll always keep a foot in their remake niche, so that's what we're focusing on in this thread. Thanks!

Curious to see how this poll will shake out!

Legend of Dragoon, because it's high time they tackle remaking a bad game. That's a real test of talent.

I request a ban for the OP because Tokyo Jungle was not on this list even with the extended poll.

Extra offense is putting nonsense like LBP on there and leaving off Tokyo Jungle...

edit: I now unrequest the ban since OP saw the error of their ways and added it

the sun will rise again

I voted!

Legend of Dragoon, only because I want new games in most of the other series, not remakes.

Ico - To continue what they've already done with Shadow Of The Colossus, they already remastered it on PS3. Plus it would be a useful smaller scale project to get more familiar with PS5.

That's an idea that I've always been in favor of -- not LoD specifically, but the concept of remaking bad/ very flawed games.

While it's awesome to see masterpieces brought up to modern standards, I think there's a lot of cool potential to "fix" a broken game and deliver upon it's untapped potential. I'd like to see more remakes of black sheep games lol

I see Tomba, I vote Tomba.

Though, rights of Tomba aren't with Sony right now I believe.

I'm not interested in any of those tbh. I would like to see what they could do with an own IP if they would want to do that.
None, I would rather Sony just buy them and say make something original.
I'd prefer a new IP. They've earned it by now.

Come on guys, read the OP, it's right there:

Also this isn't a thread to talk about how you want them to make their own IP after Demon's Souls. That would be awesome and could very well happen, but it's also likely that they'll always keep a foot in their remake niche, so that's what we're focusing on in this thread. Thanks!

I don't want to see them doing a collection, because that'll only limit what they can achieve with the remake. I want them to go all out and reimagine Syphon Filter or the first God of War.

I believe they said they wanted to or suggested to do an original IP after Demon's Souls, which I think it's great. But to answer to the poll, I voted The Legend of Dragoon, Tomba! would be awesome too! As for Tokyo Jungle, I believe Japan Studio will come back to that on day.

Eh, I love me a remake, but I'd let them have a shot at a new IP.

But maybe Syphon Filter?

I didn't know Sony owned Wild Arms as well. The Legend of Dragoon could be interesting to see as well, but I think I'm more interested in Wild Arms, tbh.

Omega Boost as a gritty ZOE style mecha drama.
