I believe this will mostly affects games which were lacking in technology.
I'd personally LOVE to see The Sims 1 or The Sims 2 re-released with performance and resolution upgrades, and, most importantly, made to be open world. Since they're older, I believe they could very easily render the entire map like The Sims 3, but with the charm of TS1 or TS2.
I cannot think of other games, since most games I see as adequate, whereas TS1 and TS2 were bound by system performance during their respective times.
Iirc everything's loaded as one map so you don't have long loading times going from lot to lot. So if your sim goes on a date downtown you don't have to then load downtown to continue playing and then reload the sim house when they go home.
