Vagrant Story

I think it's safe to say that they'll never be getting sequels. Vagrant Story's world, however, was used again in FF12.

Outland
Moon Diver
Tales of Phantasia/Legendia/Eternia/Innocence/Hearts/the Abyss/Vesperia/Graces f
Demon's Souls
Dark Souls
Theatrythm Final Fantasy
Final Fantasy 1/2/3/5/6/7/8/9/12
These are all I can think of, off the top of my head. I listed Tales games and Final Fantasy games because none of them are sequels, have any relation to one another beyond references, or have any sequels(that I know of, I left omitted all of the Tales and FF titles that I know have sequels).

FF12's world was Ivalice, right?(can't remember too well the name) FF Tactics was set there, too. :x (just an interesting fact)Midnight Crossroads said:
Damn. A lot of the games I like happen to have sequels/are sequels/prequels/ect. This could be kinda tough.
Well I'll agree with you and say Bayonetta and Psychonauts.
As for my own list:
Super Meat Boy
Xenoblade Chronicles
The Last Story
Metal Arms: Glitch in the System
Castle Crashers
And I want to throw in Shadow of the Colossus and ICO, but I do feel that they are connected by certain story elements. However vague they are.
That's all I can think of right now.

It kinda makes sense to me in a way.Mirroga said:
At the end of Shadow of the Colossus, Wander turns into a baby with horns. Which could be the start of the long line of horned children which included Ico.
And in Ico, the Queen was using some kind of ritual that involved the horned children and her daughter Yorda which made it so that she could resurrect herself within her daughter's body. Which was kinda similar to how Dormin brought back Mono. Especially considering the layout of the room where the horned children are imprisoned, where Yorda was placed, and how the spirits of the horned children look like Dormin.
Of course, Ico was released before Shadow of the Colossus, so this is just speculation on my part. But it is something interesting to talk about.

Tetris.
Seriously, all versions of tetris is the same game, it's basically a stand-alone game.
I don't really want to mention any indie games, since that would be pretty easy. There are lots of them... it's very hard to think of stand-alone AAA titles lately that have been very good (at least ones that haven't been mentioned yet).
