The only sequel that will ever need to exist is No More Heroes 2. And Half-Life 2: Episode 3 if that counts as a sequel. Everything else can give it a fucking rest.

There have never been truer words spoken. Nothing needs a sequel. Games have to stop being made in trilogies. There is nothing wrong with a good stand alone title.
But there's also nothing inherently wrong with sequels.
Indeed, but why force them?

Whats wrong with making a good game and going on to a different IP? Especially games that have no reason to be continued. (story wise).

I'm not saying they should stop making sequels to games like Assassins Creed, but for things like The Force Unleashed, there is no reason to continue it. Just make a different Star Wars game.

I hope there are no more Guitar Heroes, Call of Duties, Medal of Honors and Brothers in Arms. But I can't wait for the third Assassins Creed and Half Life 2: Episode 3.

Well there IS a reason, money, but that doesn't mean that it can't turn out well anyway. I DO wish they wouldn't just shit out sequels for extra cash, but so long as effort is put into it and it turns out well, there's no reason to complain.
I'm fine with that. But why continue that game instead of make a new IP? Its not like it was overly popular, it just seems like they're too lazy to come up with a new idea. Which is odd, seeing as the Starwars universe is HUGE!

I'd like to see a Legend of Dragoon sequel.

I'd also like to see more done with the Legacy of Kain series.

I'd like Half-Life to end completely, if only to stop the rabid throngs of rabid fan-boys. (It's a solid game, I'll admit, but it's not the "God's gift to gaming" the internet would have you believe.)

There have been some new IP's.

Brütal Legend and Mirrors Edge for example.

Their sales... disappointed.

I want more original games, but they don't make as much money as sequels to popular franchises.

They're not too lazy, they're too scared.

And please, no more Guitar Hero, please..
They should have done System Shock 3 instead of the new bioshock. New Elder Scrolls. They just need to get a team to work on the combat.

I guess that's a factor in it. But why continue a franchise that isn't that successful and better yet doesn't even set up for a sequel!

True enough. While I'd like to see a sequel for say, portal, that doesn't mean it needs one. Games like that can be perfectly well as stand alone titles.

I will say, I wouldn't mind if Bungie decided where they wanted to end the Halo series. I'm sure there are a few other series out there that need a defined endpoint, but for the life of me I can't think of them.

There needs to be a Stubbs The Zombie 2, set in an open world with a lot more options.

That's all I want.

I'd say Portal and Half life are the only ones that really comes to mind that I think should have a sequel.

As for no more I'd say Call of Duty, Guitar Hero, Rock Band.
