Ubisoft just revealed a remake of 1999's Heroes of Might and Magic 3 at Gamescom, and one look at the trailer shows it goes far beyond a simple polish and port.

It's not a rare fantasy to dream about rolling up to our local drag strip in a mundane-looking sedan and going sub-12 seconds down the quarter-mile. The problem is that most of us don't have the time or money to build the perfect street-legal drag monster. What about the expertise to actually design something functional? That's never stopped anyone with a half-built project car in their garage and a negative checking account balance.
