DRAGON AGE 2.

I just thought the characters were much better (except for Sten maybe) and having a talking protagonist made such a difference.
Again, the first wasn't bad. It was excellent. I just loved DA2 even more.
I will back you up on this 100%.

I'm going to do a reverse choice here(Meaning: Best game to a Terrible Sequel): Mercenaries:playground Of Destruction > Mercenaries 2:World in flames.

Resident Evil 4 was worlds better that the games leading up to it.
I should also probably mention Resistance 2. The first was crushingly mediocre, but the second was so good I put 100 hours into it without even noticing how much I was playing it.

Captcha sez: "purchase nvidapp"
I don't know what nvidapp is, but stop pressuring me to buy it!

Bioshock 2.

I kid, I kid. Seriously, though. Bioshock 2 wasn't THAT bad. Not as good as the first, but not bad either. Certainly a good game.


Real answer: Assassin's Creed 2. Blew the first game out of the water.

I thought Condemned: Criminal Origins was an uninteresting, underwhelming experience but thus far I've been immensely enjoying Bloodshot.

Prince of Persia: two thrones. Warrior within wasn't that bad, but it wasn't sands of time quality.

I can't think of any terrible games with great sequels. But Assassin's creed had a great sequel, really thats the only sequel that I can think of, that had ever truly out did the original in ever way. And no one said they liked the first more.

Devil May Cry 3, which gave us this.

Sorry, I would embed it, but the video has embedding disabled. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nr336JzMBmY&playnext=1&list=PL7E6692CA17E7E7E6]

As compared to 2, which was... significantly A shitload worse.

Half Life 2: Episode One.

I'm sorry, I didn't like Half Life 2. It dragged on and on and on and it always felt like I never knew what to do or where to go.

Whereas I found Half Life 2: Episode One to be an enjoyable, if short game.

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker is heads and shoulders above Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops. This is most likely due to Hideo Kojima taking the helm for Peace Walker.

Mass effect 2 (Oh shit!)
Mass Effect 1 feels like a chore to play. Although I feel like ME2 took out most of what made it an RPG, at least it was fun to play.
can't agree more
except I don't think it was like no longer an rpg, just streamlined to make it fun
if that's wrong i.e. not rpg then I don't want rpg (but that's not true, rpgs don't have to be un-fun haha)

and I gotta agree with people saying assassin's creek 2
1 wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great by the longshot. tried to play it after i played 2 but...erghh (altho admittedly 2 and botherhood aka 2.5 became more and more easy as far as combat goes)

It didn't need to be streamlined, it needed to be fixed, and instead of doing that, BioWare just decided to take the lazy route and add a linear upgrade system for armor/weapons instead.

I don't agree with Mass Effect 2. Sure, it made improvements, but there was something special about the first one.

I will say this though: Red Dead Redemption.

Final fantasy ten squares last great Hurrah..Nine was ugh....To be honest I proabley would't have judged it so harshly if it wasn't a FF but it was just so meh.. Expect for Vivi have have to think really hard to remeber any of the other characters.Ten was great though it gave me hope which 12 then proceded to rape but ah well thats life.
