The Top 10 Best Game Sequels

herdon | October 01, 2008 | Top List | Misc 
A countdown of the top 10 best game sequels of all time including both computer games and console games. The countdown includes new games such as Super Mario Galaxy and reaches back in time to older games like Star Wars: Tie Fighter.
The sequel is too often a pitstop in the descent of a great game on its way to oblivion or just a repeat of the game without much new to offer, but the when a sequel hits on all cylinders, it takes a franchise further down the road of greatness. Unfortunately, for every Empire Strikes Back, there are three or four that come out more like Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.

    No Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2? I don't like the list already. ;.;

    Its creator must be mainstream, Call of Duty 4 really isn't that great of a game or sequel. Spot on the mark with Star Wars and Diablo though.

    Not to be a stickler here, but can you really consider some of those games sequels? I mean sure they have the same characters, but there's no further plot development or even hints at a continuity.

    Mario Galaxy? are they serious that game was pretty damn mediocre. Uninspired candy coated crap.

    BTW BWillie so isn't any damn mario or zelda game, yet they're on the list.

      I'm not quite sure I understand what you're trying to say. Those were the ones I was basically talking about besides the obvious football game and Call of Duty.

          No, just making a general statement about the list itself.

      Right, whatever an Avalith is.

      It's an...alright list, guess they just didn't play many games. Some of them aren't true sequels though, just additions to a series, like SMG. SMG was a damn good game, imo.

    RE2, Melee are the best out of that list. And where the hell is Silent Hill 2? I could have sworn that game was a kickass sequel!
