Remedy to revamp Death Rally . . . kind of

Long before their Max Payne games and well before their current work on their Xbox 360 exclusive (maybe) game Alan Wake, developer Remedy released their first title; a car combat title called Death Rally that was published by Apogee in 1996. Now it looks like Remedy is looking to revive the game in a small fashion.

A recent trademark filing by Remedy states they want the use of the Death Rally name for "computer game software." The Escapist has posted up quotes from Remedy's Oskari Häkkinen who states, "With Death Rally we're looking at getting something neat out to the community by having a version that is playable on modern PCs out there." it sounds like that Remedy wants to get the original game, and not really a remake or a graphical revamp, out there to the public. Might we suggest GoG.com as a starting point, Remedy?
