50 Games Which Should Have a Sequel

July 08, 2007 in News comments 12

There is almost nothing that makes your day like the announcement of a sequel to one of your favourite games. Here are 50 games which should a sequel but don't. Outlaws, Mafia, Stubbs the Zombie. Which will take number 1

Note this list is broken into two articles, after reading part 1 go down the bottom and click on part 2

Sometimes the game industry seems so submerged in established franchises and straight-off-the-conveyor-belt sequels it seems impossible that any new IP has a chance of being noticed. But for every twenty Christmas cash cows that infest store shelves with their mediocrity, there is that one sequel we deeply yearn for – that great game that demands another shot at the big time but is bewilderingly ignored. Maybe it has merely become lost in the forgotten back catalogue of a now defunct publisher or perhaps it has been buried beneath the egotistical loggerheads of past-it developers, given up on and stuck in developmental hell. Unable to find the light as fans yell from their couches… encore! Encore! Encore!

      Legend of Dragoon really does need a sequel. I never finished the game, which is regretable, but it was awesome.

      Iv never played the REAL legend of dragoon, but I have played a Demo, and from that, I could say it would need a sequal.

    Do they not know Chrono Trigger had a sequel? Well, not so much a sequel as is is FF8 to FF7. There was a continuation in the series, and I think there were even similarities in the games, but maybe not an exact seqeuel. I swear, I'm the only person who bought Chrono Cross.

    And Jet Force Gemini really did need a sequel. I say they hit up next gen consoles with that idea. That game rocked on N64.

    Half of these games don't need a sequel, though. Games like Shadow of the Collosus felt complete. Why's FarCry on there? And Bully...that game is still quite new. Meh, can't say I agree with the list.

    No just no, A lot of those games don't deserve and sequel and don't need one at that. I agreed with around 5 of them not 50.

    Why is there a picture of Maniac Mansion, yet it doesn't appear on the list?

    I do agree with Indigo Prophecy (Farenheit) getting a sequel though. Everything else... meh.
