It's Friday, and that means Pick One has returned! We're jumping forward this week to the era of the Xbox 360, picking out three more classic Xbox titles for the Pure Xbox community to vote on. All of these are great games, but we want to know just one of them that you'd particularly like to see remastered.
Let's take a look at what we're working with:
Bully: Scholarship Edition (2007)
How about a remaster of a remaster?! This version of the Rockstar Games classic Bully is actually a remaster of the PS2 version, but looks pretty dated by today's standards. The game sees you play as a student in the fictional town of Bullworth, complete with GTA style mechanics and game design.
Left 4 Dead (2008)
We received two critically-acclaimed Left 4 Dead games in the space of two years... and then the series disappeared forever! This zombie shoot-em-up is one of the best multiplayer survival horror games on the Xbox 360, and is just calling out for a remaster on Xbox Series X.
Skate 3 (2010)
EA's Skate series redefined the way we thought about skateboarding games, introducing a more simulation-heavy feel compared to the popular Tony Hawk's series. It's latest outing - Skate 3 - is still beloved by many Xbox gamers, despite being released a grand total of ten years ago.
Let us know which of these games you'd remaster in the poll, and explain why in the comments below.

Left 4 Dead!!!
Easily the best game amongst these....
I actually just bought a new copy of bully from thegamecollection with the combined 360/one packaging
I've never played it and I think the packaging is interesting (I collect random things) and also it's weird that it reverted to its original title for the 360/wii version when it was called canis canem edit for its original UK release
Never played any of these, But i guess i'll go with left for dead..I mean anything with zombies in it has to be good
@Bmartin001 You're missing out! They're all backwards compatible on Xbox One FYI...
Left 4 dead is cool! Id' like to have it remastered!
Bully, or a sequel to it.
Glad to see L4D is taking the lead, I assumed Bully would, but L4D is one of my favorite 360 games!!!
my vote for Bully.Left 4 Dead is a great game, but it’s not so cool now. World War Z is a worthy receiver for me
Left 4 Dead easily. Kinda surprised Valve put that series on hiatus
Hmmm. These are all still pretty playable via back compat anyway so not too fussed for a remaster of any of these tbh.
We do badly need a new Skateboarding game, although there are quite a few in the pipeline, so I'll go Skate 3.
L4D is my choice.. I am still wanting a sequel after all these years but this is Valve after all.
@SuperNintendoMii I am not. This is Valve after all they don't know how to count past 2 appearently.
My vote is L4D, obviously. I was never interested in skateboarding games. And I always thought Bully was an overrated GTA rip-off (even if it was made by Rockstar).
But Valve doesn’t really care about making games much anymore, so I doubt a remaster or sequel will ever happen.
My vote goes to Left 4 Dead, even though I'm more of a classic zombie fan, and usually can't stand these newer, more versatile, and unrealistically mobile zombies, but because of the great gameplay, that game is the only one with these not-really-zombies-at-all that I can not only stomach, but actually enjoy, so yeah...
@Crownhearts
That's precisely why Bully got my vote.
Bully. It was a toned down GTA but I enjoyed it.
Skate 3. Bully is great from what little I've played and I've only played Left 4 Dead 2. Valve has had more output lately than they've had in many years, but I don't think we'll be seeing L4D anytime soon. There were leaks of a 3rd game, but development has been suspended as far as I know. I would not be surprised to see another Half Life game, though I suspect the next will be VR exclusive too. I wish MS supported Windows Mixed Reality on the Xbox. WMR is not as good as it could be, but it's good enough and cheaper than anything except PS VR. Pretty niche stuff but Half Life Alyx was a blast.
I don't really do multiplayer or sport games, so for me it would be Bully.
I voted for Bully. Skate 3 is a fantastic game but I still play it on Xbone and I don't see how it really needs remastering at all, as it holds up perfectly well now as it is.
