Not sure what changed along the way with WoW for people to put different catagories on it, but SWG pre-cu versus SWG nge were practically two totally different games.  Would I love to play pre-cu again? Yes, preferably with some tweaks to stats and fixes to bugs, or any game that had those same features with some improvements.  Would I want nge to come back?  Why? Other than the star wars theme, there are plenty of other pick a single class and level it via a series of questlines MMOs out there.  Sure it also had a great community but at least part of that community was born out of the pre-cu era when people needed other players (for crafted items, heals, and buffs) and could freely group with others (none of this "oops, too big of a difference in our levels stuff).

For me it was SWG .. but it would need some fixes. It would need to be the Pre-CU version with a few added tweeks.

If you are talking just brining back as it was when it went down .. then change that to COH.

Earth and Beyond for me.

Earth And Beyond , just LOVED that game and a close second is SWG Pre NGE, to bad EA Closed EAB down, was a fantastic game, would have given eve a run for its money.

Shadowbane for me.

I mean CoH/V is obvious, but there will probably be a part 2 for it. SB just had everything a real pvper could ask for and I enjoyed the depth of character progression.  It was difficult, and you had to tweak it, but any race / type / class combo could be played entirely crafted to suit the player and be much different from one person to the next. Yet still be effective as long as you followed tactics and contributed as part of an army, not just a team.

One day maybe we'll see a game of that scale in a real next gen system. 

MINOTAUR BARBARIAN FTW!!!

Would say AC2, but since it was relaunched a few days ago I'll go with my second choice. Tabula Rasa!

But wouldn't mind seeing SWG and CoH back one day.

I like innvoations, and new games, not old rehash of failed ones.

I really hate innovations because people's sick wish for "innovation" have ruined many could be good games.

From my other post: What?? New Mercedes have also 4 wheels??? Uaaaa.... fail, fail, fail, ... bad Mercedes, bad, bad, ... uaaa.....

Is not problem with games, problem is with people.

Well I voted for City of Heroes.

its the most worthy game on the list. *IMHO*

SWG-PreCu wins it for me.

And yes, due to how different the "different eras" were of SWG, you do need to specify wich era you'd want to see rise.

this one, plus majority on this site seems to always hail to swg aswell. wich oviously was a failure since its no longer among us. on my opinion its this insert old game name here and praise how good it was when you played it,  just so you think you can be cool gamer.

First choice, far and above anything else:  Earth and Beyond; a fantastic and innovative game that just needed some actual support instead of the lipservice EA gave it.

I'd consider SWG, but if and only if we are talking about the Pre-CU version; anything after the NGE is NOT SWG, or even an MMORPG; it was a FPS abomination masquerading as SWG.

Third choice:  City of Heroes; an amazing game that was nowhere near its end of life when NCSoft pulled the plug.

Agree. Failed ones may be to harsh. I would use the term dated.

I like new games. I played the CRAP out of EQ1, but with the exception of a week every couple of years, I don't see myself playing it again for any length of time.

SWG was a great game, I played it for a while, but I wouldn't play it even if it were free now.  Games evolve, they get better. I played alot of Pitfall in the 80's, but give me Skyrim anyday.
