Games that NEED a sequel

[SomeBoredGuy]

C'mon, I demand a Republic Commando 2/Imperial Commando! Then again, I wonder if the reason we haven't got it yet is because of the developer being shut down which wouldn't surprise me...

*checks Wikipedia*

Hell no, the game was made by LucasArts, themselves! Why do we not have a sequel yet? You can keep us entertained for awhile with your fancy TFU DLC and upcoming TFU sequel, but why no Republic Commando 2?

Mass Effect really needs a sequel. Oh wait. 36(?) more days!

But besides that Dead Rising 2 could be . . . FUCK!

Okay, sequel that is unannounced . . . PORTAL BITCHES! I can see it now! Portal 2: Enter Gordon. Did your body just tremor with epicness? Mine did.

Bully but it will never get a real sequel

Wouldn't that just be Half-Life 2: Episode 3? Maybe that's what's taking them so long! Maybe they're working on a way to implement the Portal gun! Maybe...

For christ's sake, do you even know what the search bar is?!

New member, new member, new member. Way to introduce people.

Sorry... it's been a bad day. I wish people would only post threads after 250 posts. *breaks down crying* Why does life have to be so hard?!

The irony of your avatar makes it oh so sweet.

Okami is getting a sequel

As usual, you've made my day.

I need Freespace 3

 

[Shinigami214]

How about : NONE.

Seriously, isn't it preferable to explore new ground rather than opt for the inevitable re-hash that a sequel tends to devolve into?

The instances were sequels which failed far outweigh the instances were they shone.

What works, however, in my opinion, are are iterations of games set in the same setting/universe - such as Mechwarriors, or Dawn of War.

There in lies a freedom to explore different angles to a setting or universe, giving the story developers a shot at innovation, not having to stick to the same yoke that the predecessor instantly becomes.

Cases in point? Overlord 2, Max Payne 2, Fear 2 etc.

What about the (oncoming?) Homeworld 3?
Homeworld 1 was the best of all three, whereas HW: Cataclysm sucked a big one..
If they made HW3 like HW1, where strategy was more important than how fast you could click your orders around, the sequel will be very promising...

One thing I'm also waiting for is a new Armored Core, but then for PC... No one ever made something like that; the MechWarrior games had a totally different gameplay.

And EA should pick up from where they left C&C Tiberium.

You, my friend, are my friend now. And you are a genius.

Fable needs a sequel... Oh wait... Nevermind *Cuts wrists*...
And portal does have new maps and stuff... It's called Portal: Still Alive on the XBL marketplace...
KOTOR needs a sequel from Bioware... As does Jade empire... Halo 3 ODST could do with a sequel (Future)... As can Borderlands
And, of course, AC2's sequel needs to come out soon... Great ending...

 

[ShotgunSmoke]

Max Payne. And a PROPER sequel, not this chubby, bald, middle-aged Max in Brazil crap.

 

[Puzzles]

This doesn't make sense, since BG2 is the sequel. Still... Baldurs Gate 2 needs a real sequel. Not an expansion, or spiritual failure.

 

[Cyberjester]

Half-Life 2: Episode 2.
Preferably in my lifetime.

Errrr.. *considers how to put it*

Great news!! HL2: EP2 is out!!
Get it now with Portal and TF2!

Failure of communication.
HL2:Ep2 needs a sequel, i.e. Episode 3.

How did your post end up above mine when yours is a quote of mine.. *head implodes due to Pararaptor's awesomeness*

YOU ARE MY NEW GOD!!!1!

Yeah, I'm a douche like that.

If you're going to quote something, quote it. Don't change it. Or we get hilarious results like the one above. =P

My vote goes to PsiOps. I had so much friggin' fun playing that game.

Hell yea. I forgot that one. Think it's on Steam tho.. *checks*

While this technically isn't a true sequel idea, I'd love to see the entire Marathon trilogy remastered in a modern game engine rather than in a release like AlephOne or the semi-fun nightmare of the XBLA Marathon: Durandal.

I think it would be an interesting way to introduce many gamers to one of Bungie's best games.

Great game, but Halo did the introducing. =P Technically Marathon is the prequel to Halo. I think.. Or the other way around. :S Must play it again..

Technically no. Marathon and Halo exist in separate universes. And seeing as how Marathon is set in 2793 and Halo is in 2552, if they were connected, Halo would be the prequel. There are a lot of similarities, but Marathon's story is separate and more rich. Halo's got plenty going for it, but all the real story is found outside of the games. For Marathon, the vast majority of the info comes from the games themselves.

If you take the time to play through the Marathon trilogy, you'll understand what I mean.

I played them, but way too long ago. Don't think I made it all the way through tho.. An update killed the emulator I was using.

two games i wanna see return
legend of legaia
tombi( or tomba in some places)
these two were amazing on the psone

 

[gRiM_rEaPeRsco]

Freelancer, the story even set up a sequel but it never came ;_;

 

[Cowabungaa]

Arcanum, 1000% Arcanum. I want my brilliant fantasy Victorian mix-up world in glorious modern day graphics dammit! I mean, where else are you going to see Half-Ogres dressed in a three-piece suit and wielding strangely modified revolvers?

 

[Mozza444]

Timesplitters definetly
also id like to see a real sequal to 007 night fire.. such a great game.. such shit sequals

 

[Bihac]

Left 4 Dead... wait, what?

On a more serious note:
Team Buddies (Great game)
Freedom Fighters
Legacy of Kain

and an Dungeon Keeper 3 or Evil Genius 2 (DK preferred) would be nice. Even if extremely unlikely.

Klonoa 3, now, Klonoa 1 and 2 was masterpieces.

And a Persona 5 needs to exist, although considering that it's one of Atlus' best selling franchises since P3, it will probably.
