Which games deserve a sequel?

[mjc0961]

By the way, you're allowed to say that you like a game, but not that you hate a game, because people generally don't appreciate it when you shit on their favorite games for no reason. Feel free to offer reasons why you didn't like the game to counter my reasons why I loved it, if you feel inclined to.

I'm not shitting on anyone's favorite game for no reason. I played it, and hated it. "No reason" applies to people who just bash stuff without ever even having played it.

Furthermore, I again point out the double standard here. Liking a game is fine, but not liking it is "shitting on it"? Could you possibly make it any more obvious that you don't like people simply because they disagree with your opinion about a video game?

As much as I absolutely love the L4D series, the TF2 updates and the fact that Portal is getting a sequel... I really REALLY want my Half Life 2: Episode 3.

 

[Venom Kitetsu]

Sims Bustin' Out!

haha. no, kidding.

Actually I've been really hoping for a sequel to Metal Arms: Glitch in the System.
it is such a fantastic game and they left it wide open for a sequel. But it's been
years since it's release, and not even a rumor about one.

 

[zhemis]

Soulbringer and Freespace 2. If you're not going to use it, sell it to someone who will!

 

[irishdude]

Half-Life 2
*ba dum pish*

In all seriousness, the Jak and Daxter games deserve a proper sequel on the PS3.

None of this handheld bullshit.

people listens to this guy, god yes a new j&d on ps3

Spiderman 2 enter elctro

I never played enter electro but I loved the first one so Spiderman 3 would be awesome BUT THEY NEED TO MAKE THE FINAL CUTSCENES LESS KIDDY. and lastly IT NEEDS SHOCKER.

 

[The Stonker]

Well this is quite entertaining since I love RTS's hate Half life and absouloutly adore SINS except for all the time that goes into it.
I would love to see a Duke nukem Forever HAS EVERYBODY FORGOTTEN THAT? :O

Conker's Bad Fur Day and Killer Instinct

there are a lot of rumors that rare is working on ki3 for the 360, and most of those rumors have not been dispelled either. its also been reported that ms is porting ki 1 and 2 to xbla as well, and as popular as a series as ki was in the past it seems likely that they would eventually do that.

in any case, id like to see a new breath of fire game. they weren't the best but i always enjoyed them, and towards the end capcom started taking a lot of new directions with the series.

and definitely a new mega man legends game.

I would love to see a sequel to Bullet Witch. For all the shit people give it, it was an original idea that could have worked if given time and money. It could have been a top rate action game if they had cleaned up the combat and improved the voice acting and plot...

Also, a sequel (or at least a new game) from the Tactics Ogre series would be much appreciated. Tactics Ogre: The Knight Of Lodis is one of my favorite games of all time, and it's technically the newest in the series while being 9 years old.

Yes, there is a double standard. As I said before, people generally dislike others who shit on their favorite games for no reason. I'm not saying that you had no reason of disliking the game, I'm simply saying that something caused you to tell me how very much you disliked a game in a thread where we were talking about games that deserved sequels. You had no reason to do this; it's fine that you have such an opinion, but they should be saved for threads entitled "Games that don't deserve sequels".

You also failed to state any reasons why you disliked the game. You simply said, "I played it, and hated it." This shows lack of reason behind hating a game. Perhaps you do have reasons for disliking this game, but I really just don't care anymore. You're obviously trying very hard to make some miraculous observation about the human psyche, and I'm done being a part of your experiment. The fact of the matter is, there was absolutely no reason to show your hate for a game that I had just expressed my love for other than to try and get under my skin; it was unnecessary and uncalled for.

Metal Gear Solid

Bear with me... remember how with that PS1 classic there were Two different endings one where (OK spoilers abound) Meryl lives if you resist the torture, another where she dies if you submit. Now MGS2 and MGS4 were made based on assuming you took the "good" ending and to be frank... those games were a bit shit. The final cherry on top of that shit sandwich being Meryl wedding at the end of MGS4 *BARF*

How about another series set in an "alternate timeline" where Meryl IS killed by Ocelot and none of this Patriot bollocks ever comes up at all. Have Ocelot as the main bad guy and Snake on a revenge mission with Otacon mysteriously involved as he is seemingly recruited by Ocelot in his evil plans (maybe it turns out he's a double agent).

It just makes for a hell of a lot more interesting plot than a bunch of bullshit about Human Genome Project and fake democracy and secret organisations like The Patriots that would make Dan Brown blush.

God, a question that eternally haunts me. There's a difference between series that were discontinued for unknown reasons and one-off games that were never meant to have a sequel even if it had great potential.

Examples of the former:
Rival Schools
Powerstone
Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan!
Legacy of Kain
Shenmue (INCOMPLETE TRILOGY! RAAAAAAAGE!)
Tribes
Gargoyle's Quest
Zone of the Enders (IS ACTUALLY GETTING A PS3 SEQUEL, WOOHOO!)

Examples of the latter:
Jet Force Gemini
Hybrid Heaven
Chaos Legion
Ring of Red
GrimGrimoire
Vagrant Story
Legend of Dragoon
Battle Realms
Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem

I've got to agree with this. Mostly because I'm now so utterly against the idea of sequels except in certain situations. Far too often we see sequels to things that should never ever have gotten a sequel. I'm sorry to say it, but as good a game as Chrono Cross was, Chrono Trigger is one of those things that should never have gotten a sequel... EVER!

 

[Blue Musician]

Chrono Trigger/Cross, and Mirror's Edge. Other than those, most of my favorite series have gotten sequels

I think Mirror's Edge is actually getting a sequel soon. Not sure though.

OT:
System Shock 2 (by that I don't mean BioShock, I mean a REAL sequel which surpasses SS2 standards, not dumbed them down for the console idiots), Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines and Undying.
The sequels that have been announced that I would seriously like to be released soon are American McGee's Alice and Thief 4.

 

[darkmushroomm]

Call of Duty.

[/troll]

I think the call of duty series has more or less burned out.

 

[GLo Jones]

Maybe Shadowrun (FPS), and definitely Chromehounds.

Edit: Oh, and Gladius for PS2. God I miss that game.

[Con Carne]

Castelvania: Symphony of the Night
InFamous
(I know a game has been done already but...) A proper sequel to Rock 'n' Roll Racing
Final Fantasy Tactics
A good Killer Instinct sequel (I hated KI:Gold)
Earthworm Jim

 

[LiquidGrape]

Jade Empire.
I still think it's Bioware's best.
