Late 90s Game Titles

With the continuing trend of rereleasing old games via XBox Live! Arcade, PlayStation Network, and Steam and the like do you think we'll be seeing more classic games getting rereleased from the late 90s? Games like Unreal, Jedi Knight, and such? We've already gotten the first wave of nostalgia with the constant rereleases of Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, Duke Nukem 3D, the recently released Perfect Dark HD, and the upcoming Dark Forces for PSN (I assume it's just the PSOne version being rereleased). Maybe we'll get some of the later ones at last.

I'd love to play the first Unreal in co-op online on my XBox, for instance. Or Quake and Quake 2. Even the first Unreal Tournament was a blast. I know most if not all of these are already available on Steam, but it would be nice to have them on consoles too.

Just thinking out loud I guess. Wasn't the first Jedi Knight game (Dark Forces 2) on PSOne? Or was that the Dreamcast only? It'd also be nice if the first Half-Life was finally released for the XBox. I think only HL2 was released for the XBox Original with the PS2 and Dreamcast being the only systems to get the first HL.

    I'm sure GOG's catalog will only get larger.

    The Jedi Knight series is already on Steam but yes, I think companies are going to continue trying to milk their old products by reselling them to people looking for a bit of cheap nostalgia.

    I know I mentioned Steam and GoG but I was referring to consoles. I don't know. The thought of playing these games on modern consoles and the multiplayer possibilities is strangely exciting.
