If Fan Support is There, Free Radical will Remake TimeSplitters 2 — in HD

I’ve got fond memories of play TimeSplitters 2. (On GameCube, no less, which really isn’t the ideal platform for shooters with that stupid C-stick. Ugh.) Many of the same developers from Rare who worked on GoldenEye moved on to Free Radical, which is the team that developed the TimeSplitters series. You can really tell when looking at the HUD or any number of things in the game (monkeys!?) that these people love their FPS games.
So imagine the surprise Free Radical trumped up when they told PSM3 magazine that, while they are developing TimeSplitters 4, they wouldn’t be opposed to remaking TimeSplitters 2 in HD — provided the fans showed support for the idea.
CVG is trying to round together support for the project, but do whatever you can to kick up some dust. Write a blog, make forum threads, create a petition; anything that will show we want TimeSplitters 2 HD.
Don’t do it for just me or you. Do it for the monkeys.
i had a blast on that game…
Same, I played for hours against bots on the Xbox. I sent an email to psm3 like the source article said… don’t know if it will do any good.
I played it on the Xbox with my lil bro with the Virus game mode which was the best mode ever! Combine that with the custom maps we made and hella fun.

My gut tells me this will happen. The fact that Free Radical would even suggest it means they, themselves, want to do it, and all they need is a sign that people are interested so that it makes sense from a business standpoint to spend time creating it.
the best fps on the ps2 defiantly needs a remake plus in glorious HD…yes please !
