I'm probably going to say Portal although I'm kind of cut in half, the first one was absolutely amazing, and if they can manage it again it would be brilliant.

But I just can't shake the feeling that they won't, the first one just seemed much too good and I doubt, talented as Valve are, that they could match it...

Crysis.

And yes, I know there are going to be 2 more coming but I still say they shouldn't have any sequels.
Umm, Crysis was more like a tech demo than anything. It had plotholes, such as WHERE prophet went, not a developed story...

Halo:CE The other two were poor, to say the least, let me imagine how it ends don't just make it rubbish Bungie!

Bioshock. Really, really doesn't need a sequel, I really hope they don't make one as I can't see it being as good as the first.

Deus Ex. Oh dear lord! How bad was Invisible Wars?! Way to ruin my favourite game ever!
I agree with Halo 1 being the best, the two afterwards were shitty to say the least. Regardless of the backtracking you did in the first Halo it was still a superior game to Halo 2 & 3.
For Bioshock they have already announced Bioshock 2, as well as Bioshock 3, which worrys me immensely since i have a feeling its going to turn into a yearly thing, especially with EA at the helm, but with Ken Levine there i have some hope still that they won't turn out shit.
As for Invisible War, i actually liked that, but then that could have something to do with the fact that that was my first Deus Ex game ever lol.

A game that nobody should know about, The Mark, If they make a seqeul to that monstrosity then I will end the world. As a matter of fact Jowood should stop making games all together because Soldner was also a train wreck.

Bomberman: Act Zero or what I call it Bomberman 3d should never ever get a sequel. My god was it crap. I refuse to except this as a Bomberman game.

Vampire Rain should be dead. Why the hell is there a sequel for the ps3? The 360 version was utter crap. Unless they knew they weren't even trying and are now trying for the ps3, they have no reason to make a sequel.

Also 50 cent games. I don't even need to comment cause we all know its crap.

You spelled it wrong. It's World of Warcrap. Change that FT to a P, yo.

Actually, even if I did like the game, I'd be pretty annoyed to see another expansion. Each level cap increase actually makes the game less fun. You get +10 levels or whatever, making all of your previously amazing hard-earned equipment garbage, and making all the stuff that made getting that amazing hard-earned equipment pointless to do. I know Burning Crusade actually abolished a whole bunch of stuff that a lot of people found fun. Way to go, Blizzard.

This is why Final Fantasy XI will never increase the level cap past 75. Well that, and support jobs would be overpowered if you could hit 80. If any MMORPG has a point to which the game stops grinding and moves into major endgame 'fun' stuff to do, they should add more endgame 'fun' stuff to do and stop with the useless grinding.

Man... World of Warcrap sucks.

Haha they already have a director for the movie too. Something tells me this franchise is going to take a nose dive. Of course they made an amazing game once so here's to hoping they can do it again.

Already a sequel planned for World of Warcraft... The World of World of Warcraft:

http://www.theonion.com/content/video/warcraft_sequel_lets_gamers_play

Bioshock definately doesn't need a sequel, I thought the game was a great solo performance... but the single player trickled out towards the end with really repetitive gaming that didn't increase in difficulty, and with the twist already revealed how can they expect to make a successful sequel or trilogy?

Halo: CE always needed a sequel, it just needed a BETTER one... but I'm a multiplayer gamer and there is very little out there that can contest the features of Bungie's multiplayer system...

Hey, he has an excellent point, the old sonic games were straight-up gangsta, but these new ones are pathetic.

Sorry, had to correct your spelling, its spelled W A R Holy dumb fuck, this is the most boring game I have ever played, and every single player I run into makes me want to genocide the hell out of him and his family C R A Poop.

The last part "crapoop" is especially important, its Latin, you see.

Are you sure?, 'cause I think MGS 3: Subsistance is the best MGS (I have'nt played MGS 4 yet).

MGS3 was called Snake eater mate your thinking of the sequal to MGS 2 Sons of the patriot but MGS was always going to be a series because of its indepth story line i mean 4 is ended so WELL and ties up any lose knots

Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 2 would make me take up destroying PS3s as a hobby, just to avoid more of the cheesiest, button mashing game play I've ever seen.

Koei knows how to make sequels for the original Dynasty Warriors series, to an extent, by adding new characters, maps, and moves... but not even a complete overhaul can save this game.

That and I believe Animal Crossing should have stood on the Gamecube and the DS, what with the Wii "edition" coming out.

Ha ha ha, very witty.

Now stop it, before I get annoyed.

No laikenf is right. There is a Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence which came after Snake Eater. You're thinking of MGS 2: Substance.

Yeah because a fully online Animal Crossing on the Wii would be a travesty....

There are some really lame suggestions on here.
No sequel to Super Mario Brothers? No Mario 3, no Mario World, no Mario 64
No sequel to Metal Gear? No Metal Gear Solid.

I'm having trouble telling whether or not that's sarcasm, but my reply to that would have to be anything planned on the Wii in terms of online play for Animal Crossing has already been done to a degree in Animal Crossing: Wild World.

I've always thought of Animal Crossing as a sort of cult classic on the Gamecube and I imagined the ability to have it compatible with the Wii would be enough to satisfy anyone, along with the slightly gutted, yet online hosting DS; Wild World sequel.

I see this upcoming sequel as almost worthless compared to the first two games, even if the developers threw in an element to make the game what they consider to be "more innovative".

Kingdom Hearts. I absolutely loved playing the first one, it was a great game. The second one was a total travesty, completely painful to play through. I think it only such a rave because of the fandom of KH1
Square should stop now. Wait, I mean "SquareEnix."
The whole Final Fantasy was awesome because of the fun gameplay and High-Fantasy storylines. When they stopped making it High-Fantasy and started making it more anime-fan-oozing than actual anime, they should have retired the "Final Fantasy" name, at very least.

Speaking of which, developers should stop making super-uber characters. Not fun.
Normal guy in Bioshock = good. The antagonist from Portal was even more feesible. Master Cheif, while still pushing it, was alright because he was not too much more powerful than his opponents. Just more skilled. Even in pokemon, you start out with a tiny little critter and you have to turn it into a maneating colossus.
An angsty boy with arms smaller than a rolling pin isn't going to be able to spin around a half-ton blade, especially without any special training.
