Half life 2 episode 3 would be nice... but I think that prototype 2 would be fucken awsome if they let u use the extendotentacle as a grapple and duel weild them...
Right... so spiderman then? You want another mediocre spiderman game, basically is what you're saying.
Except Prototype was awesome and deserving of a sequel. Sandbox games + Superpowers = Win. The moral ambiguity of it was rather refreshing, compared to most people being all "EVIL OR GOOD, WHICH DO YOU CHOOSE?!"
No One Lives Forever 3 needs to be made, because there are plot threads that need to be resolved, and because it's an enjoyable game that's simply fun to play. There are too few games that are just fun to play, and that aren't all grimdark.
Homeworld 3 should be made because it's one of only two emotionally engaging RTSes I've ever played, and because I need Space RTSes like cows need hamburger buns: desperately.
Speaking of Space RTSes, I'd love to see a graphically updated sequel to
Sins of a Solar Empire with a campaign and much larger skill tree, although the game's basically got one gametype, so a campaign would be kinda hard.
Remember how I mentioned emotionally engaging RTSes? I'd love a new
World in Conflict, but with maybe just a little basebuilding mechanics, as well as a unit/levelup feature, and maybe the ability to control leader units. Somewhere between the original Dawn of War with the storytelling prowess and action-RTS style of World in Conflict, set in that same, somewhat realistic universe.
System Shock 3 would be great, just to convince people that Bioshock isn't as original as they'd like to think. Also because I'd like one-more go-around with SHODAN.
Oni 2 would be utterly, ridiculously awesome, as we can do so much better with anime-styled graphics these days than we could before, and because I imagine all the cutscenes would be fully animated in cinematic FPS (27?) and because I love the combat in that game so much. Flipping a guy into another guy all by yourself and watching them both die is amazing and cathartic.
Half Life deserves a sequel, because it was a great game and I really liked the whole "science gone wrong" aspect of it. I'm really interested to learn more about the G-Man and government conspiracies and why the Vortigaunts were trying to kill us and who this Ne-whateverhisnameis was and use another bee-gun and, man, I loved those giant monsters! The enemy variety was brilliant, and never mind that the levels often made no sense; the game was LONG, and very consistent. I loved how they focused less on crafting some cinematic story and more on creating this atmosphere of tension and fear. This idea of feeling like you're just some insignificant scientist guy who just happens to get his hand on some guns and tries fighting for his life... it's refreshing. I don't want to be some super-powered god who can do anything and has only one weapon (like Halo's sword) and has mandatory vehicles (again like Halo) I really like it. I think it's the perfect game.
...and man, the two expansions were great, and I'd love to see more of Adrian, and I hope one day Barney will meet up with Gordon.
