Games That Desperately Need Sequels

[Fallensky7]

What games left you SCREAMING for more, for both good and bad reasons. Did the story end on a cliff hanger with no real resolution, would you like to see more of it in better graphics, did it have too many bugs, or do you just want more?

Just for clarification…..games that have been announced to have sequels do not count.

Here is mine:

1. Legend of Dragoon (for all its gameplay faults, and painful level of anime-like
themes; I just loved it’s story and game concept)

2. Legacy of Kain: Defiance (If anyone has played this series…… they know what I mean)

3. Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne (not WoW!!!!!!! Warcraft 4 as an RTS)

4. Homeworld 2 (I don’t care what anyone says, it’s the best space strategy sim ever made)

5. Alien Vs. Predator 2 (the FPS not the terrible movie)

4. Homeworld 2 (I don’t care what anyone says, it’s the best space strategy sim ever made)

Agreed.

nocturne (that game where you are a misterious hunter of monters circa 1930 if anyone played it) i think, for the story, it was nice, and they leaved on a cliffhanger, it never had a direct sequel.

I have said it many times, but Blast Corps!!!! That game was so much fun, it definately deserved a sequel, but Rare would most likely screw it up like everything else they try to rehash.

Warcraft 3
Blizzard is extremely busy at the moment

The Original Final Fantasy Tactics.
Because FFTA is crap. The judgment system sucks imo.

It was way too arbitrary. Wasn't it random each battle? If they had set rules for set areas that'd be okay (well, better anyway) but randomising it was just stupid. The Jagd missions were the best. Sure your guys could die, but at least you didn't have to worry about the crazy judge. I think VGcats expressed it best [http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=112].

I really do hate to deviate from the topic, I'm sorry to the original poster but what about 1 movie, Godzilla! Come on, that ending was so much bullshit that it amazed me, and I've heard George Bush make at least a dozen speeches. It was the ultimate cliffhanger, and they never made the sequel.

On the subject of games, Deus Ex, very much so, I know there was invisible war but that's not so much a sequel as some minor filler. You end Deus Ex SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER as essentially the ruler of the world, unless you go with "new dark-age" plan, but honestly, I think it would be cool to have a game that goes on from there.

KOTOR 3
Dungeon Keeper 3

 

[ElephantGuts]

When is the next Company of Heroes coming out??? Every day that game isn't announced I can feel a bit of my soul slipping out of me. And even though they're already being made, Empire:Total War and Battlestations: Pacific need to hurry up. Not that they're taking a particularly long time, but I'm still dyin' here.

hmmm...KOTOR, Psi Ops.
Kotor was amazing no explanation necessary.
Psi Ops was a pretty cool game, sure the story needed work but imagine using TK with todays graphics and physics. plus PK would be much cooler.

 

[Aura Guardian]

Psychonauts

 

[Programmed_For_Damage]

I've said it til I'm blue in the face but both Streets Of Rage and Road Rash deserve new sequels.

 

[Spartan Bannana]

Psychonauts definitely

2. Legacy of Kain: Defiance (If anyone has played this series…… they know what I mean)

I dunno. I felt I needed closure, but the more you think about it the more the story is pretty much wrapped up across the five games.

I do agree with Dungeon Keeper 3.

And Eternal Darkness 2.

 

[WILLTHEALMIGHTY]

Obsidian/Lucas Arts definitly needs to make a sequel to Kotor 2.

Not a silly MMO. An actual sequel.

Mischief Makers. One of the most fun platformers I've played with wonderfully original controls and some of the most fun boss fights I've seen (character fights, not the random animals). Unfortunately, the game was also ridiculously easy, so it really isn't even fun to play anymore. Every time I pick it up again I'm disappointed at how quickly the bosses die. Someone needs to use this system again, even if it isn't a sequel.

Rocket Knight Adventures would be my second choice. The first one was a great game by itself. The SNES sequel was crap, but the Genesis one made a major improvement by allowing the jetpack to charge automatically and allowing you to use it multiple times in air. Unfortunately, the level design made it impossible to enjoy it as you were confined to tight areas littered with spikes and such for pretty much the whole game. It was almost impossible to use the jetpack without killing yourself in anywhere other than the first level. If someone enhanced the controls a bit (give a little more control over flight) and gave you open spaces to play in it would be the perfect sequel.

Forgot to mention Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge

Greatest aerial combat game ever. Steampunk is amazing and it's a hell of a lot of fun, especially with the boss fights.
