Top 10 Shameful Sequels

TwilightPrince | September 26, 2008 | Top List | PC Playstation 2

In most cases, a sequel never lives up to it's predecessor. And such is the case with these ten games. Not only did these games not live up to the hype, but they were so bad that they actually damaged the companies and series they belonged to. Ouch!

News Story attached to:

Far Cry: Vengeance [Wii]
Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus [PS2]
Sonic the Hedgehog [PS3, SEGAMS, XBOX360, GENESIS]
Yoshi's Story [N64]

  I thought Dirge of Cerberus was so totally *bleep*ing... average.

    It was average. Take "Final Fantasy" off the box, and you're left with a shooter that has mediocre gameplay, too many cutscenes, and subpar AI in both enemies and team mambers.
    It was just ... awful. Squeenix had made good RPG/shooters before, they shouldn't have stuffed up so badly with Dirge.

I like Yoshi's story.

I personally think Tomb Raider Chronicles is the worst one.I agree that AoD is pretty crappy, but I still actually like the game.

I think they should take 007 off. Not that it wasn't bad or a shameful attempt at recapturing Goldeneye's success. It's just that you really can't not make a game about 007 after how well Goldeneye did.
