Which amiga game could do with a modern makeover?

The AD&D goldbox series.
Street Rod. There was an effort to make a Streetrod 3, but I think it's been abandoned.

Even though both of these games had PC versions back in the day, I agree that both need a revisit.  

There's no spiritual successor to the AD&D Gold Box games, and that is really a shame.  The entire offline RPG genre has been decimated by subscription-based MMOs, and that really sucks.  

And as for Street Rod, there are a billion and twelve car games, and yet so few that even sniff at the borders of where this title firmly planted itself.  The start of the game was always the best... You're basically broke and trying to bodge together a decent car from a bunch of dodgy 2nd hand parts bought out of the back section of the newspaper...  Brilliant.

Another driving game is one that has been imitated a million times but never actually had the spirit duplicated was Stunt Track racer.  The balance of needing to drive fast enough to win vs. needing to pace and not destroy the vehicle is really the nugget of joy behind a great arcade racer, and yet it is almost always the most neglected facet of the genre.   "Do I fly over this jump knowing I'm going to overshoot the landing, hoping to get a fortunate bounce on the landing and come into the corner hot?  Or do I tap the brakes on this ramp so I don't overshoot the landing and then gain back the speed by using the last of my boost out of the corner?  I have about 0.1 seconds left to decide.  Crap!"  That's the kind of decision that makes heroes and idiots...... And I miss it.

Stunt Car Racer - update of that would be fun, but its kind has been done with Track Mania

So many people say that, and honestly, I couldn't disagree more.  The two games have nothing in common besides driving on roller-coaster like tracks.

TrackMania is a simple human vs. track game.  And the tracks just aren't interesting enough to make that fly.  Sure, you can race your ghost or your friend's ghost, but really, at its heart, it's just a time trial game over increasingly annoying terrain.  If I'm going to play a time trial game, give me Richard Burns Rally.  At least those cars are fun to drive, and the stages are challenging without being annoying.  

Stunt Track Racer (or Stunt Car Racer in some regions) was human vs. human taking place on the track.  There's bumping, damage, passing and blocking.  At it's heart was a great arcade racer.  The closest thing I can think of in spirit is the multi-player race mode in Flatout (the first one, not 2, not Ultimate Carnage or any of the other ones, but the original).  Sure, it's a completely different game in looks, but it has the same human vs. human(s) driving element, taking part in a challenging landscape.  

Anyhow, I digress.  I'm one of the geeks that would like to see a modern Stunt Track (or Car) Racer.
