Game series who's deaths you weep for.

[chuckman1]

Duke Nukem Forever.
(only 52 more years)

 

[Jingermanoo]

Oh and also, Star Wars Bounty Hunter. A Boba Fett version would have been immensely enjoyable I reckon, rounding up Han Solo would have been a great mission and also freelancing for the Empire to take in rebel commanders.

*Drool*

While I'm aware that lots of people are getting pretty sick of the endless stream of sequels, we all have that one series who's end we thought came too soon, at least I do, for me it's Golden sun, ending a story without a satisfying ending should be against the law.
So what games do you miss?

Just FYI, camlot and nintendo are fighting tooth and nail about making a third golden sun game for the DS.

it's not a winning battle, and the game is likely to never get made.

but dammit all, a gamer can hope

I was unaware, but thats encouraging, maybe if we all hope enough the game will be made.
Golden sun for the DS would be fantastic.

sorry for the double post, however, we need to address the definition of this thread, it is about good games that are not being made anymore, rather than good games that have had poor sequels

Very true, no more Banjo kazooie and the like, they're not dead they're just "different".

 

[Valiance]

Shattered Steel.
Terra Nova.
Mechwarrior.
Shining Force? Dunno if it counts since they're making more in the Shining series, but not Shining Force games (Like if they made another Tribes but didn't make another Earthsiege)
Heroes of Might and Magic?
Master of Orion (NO, MOO 3 DOES NOT COUNT, IT IS AN ATROCITY)

We need a new homeworld game, the first two were so awesome.. its the only space rts i've played where you can actually move in 3 dimensions and there was no messing around with bases and planets and junk. your base was a ship, that could go anywhere and carry shit loads of fighters and bombers. i'd love to see what they could do with homeworld using modern tech

I've mentioned this before on a 'sequels you'd love to see' thread, but XIII.

Seconded to infinity. Such an awesometastic game, it even provokes you to use words like 'awesometastic'.

And it also seemed to purposefully leave room for a sequel of some sort.

Awesometastic indeed!

I was annoyed with the cliffhanger ending as well, you just had a feeling it wasn't going to sell enough to guarantee a sequel.

I'd still consider that a death of some kind.

four words CONKERS BAD FUR DAY it is one of the most awesomest games i have evar played it was the perfect game of that time the xbox version ruined it with its more censored style the multiplayer of the original should have been ported to the newer one and i deffinatly think they could make a sequal to conker

 

[Elurindel]

Jazz Jackrabbit
One Must Fall
System Shock
Fire Fight

Dude...One Must Fall. I remember that game. 2097 or 3D?
Either way, it needed more storyline.

 

[Leeathal]

Bully/Canis Canem Edit

Totally agree and Bubsy 3D, it was so bad it was good

 

[ryanxm]

The elderscrolls I JUST NEED ONE MORE!!!!

You mean to tell me that the Xbox censored the game more than the original Nintendo release?

 

[Brotherofwill]

Timesplitters
Rare games
Oddworld game (Abe 1 + 2)
And goddamn Monkey Island...why did they have to end it like this?
Actually pretty much the whole point and click adventure genre for that matter.

 

[Duh]

Jack Jazzrabbit was kewl.

I also hope that Beyond Good and Evil 2 WILL be released.

Well they released a trailer for that so I think we can breathe a sigh of relief knowing it is being developed.

people say great things about this game, but i couldnt play it

i think ill get it from Direct2Drive

Double Ninja'd;
I am in awe.

EDIT: Beyond Good and Evil 2 trailer didn't tell me shit, other than it could be really pretty.

Onimusha 1-3 were awesome but then the end it with that crappy Dawn of Dreams (I think thats what its called) which was just horrid. Giving you control of two characters at once made it too easy. Okay I'll attack with you while the other heals while using an impenetrable defense! Whoops I got hit! SWITCH! I've heard rumors of a 5th and I can only pray for the return of Samanosuke or Jubie. And not that little ***** Jubie from Dawn of Dreams, the real Jubie from two. And my apologies to the Nazis if I spelled any of their names wrong.
