To me, most of the beloved older 2D game's graphics stand up just great today because of the excellent spriting and background work involved, even at high resolutions. The older 3D would need the boost. The Longest Journey looking like Dreamfall+ would be cool. I suppose Grim Fandango could also be neat with an update (in game graphics like the cutscenes!), don't know how much you'd count it as an adventure game, but the amazing Anachronox deserves to look even more awesome than it already does. Of course it, and really all of these need sequels more than updates. Anachronox was a long game but it was said to be 60% completed before Eidos scrapped it and released it as-was. I think it says a lot about the game that it was still so good but makes me wonder what could have been. Sadly it gets no love and seems to just be forgotten.
