A sequel to Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis would make me go crazy. By far the best Indy game and a true jewel from back in the day.

All the Jedi Knight/Dark Forces games are hitting Steam Wednesday. Better believe I'm buying those again. I love that I have Fate of Atlantis and The Dig on my Steam downloads. Now we need Full Throttle (can beat that game in my sleep) and Day of the Tentacle.

Can you say X-Wing vs Tie Fighter remake?

They did for Secret of Monkey Island.
I loved that game back in the day.
Maybe I'll check some of these out.

X vs. Tie?
Where is my flight controller!

Yeah, just for Monkey Island: Special Edition though. A cool feature is that with the press of a single key you can switch between the new graphics and the original and its great to see how much they have changed. The Special Edition also has full voice acting.
