I liked the idea of greeters. But the huge mouths were creepy.

I wouldn't mind if we don't see them coming back... a nice little appearance in a cutscene would be neat, but I don't really feel the need to see them coming back in gameplay.

Sorry Xavier.

Anyway back on Topic. I would love to see them in 3D, with its laser censer going 360 degrees.

Í can see them work very well in 3D. On top of that, they were very well designed as a foe in gameplay, look and story-telling terms. In general, Greeters are awesome and deserve a comeback.

Yeah my feeling exactly, they worked great in 2D but I can't see them successfully transposed in 3D.

I can, for levels where the key is sneaking and subterfuge, it would be great, you know to have to dodge the greeters LoS and if you get caught, they raise alarms and try 'n zap you.

I really don't see them as important at all. I kind of doubt Greeters would be in a new game.
