I played the fuck out of battlefront with my friend when I was younger. I never actually got Battlefront 2, but I got Renegade Squadron for PSP and was incredibly disappointed.
A next gen Battlefront 3 with online multiplayer would make me very happy.

Republic Commando, of course, but everyone's already said that.

I'd like a sequel to Deus Ex, though. Invisible War doesn't count.

grind session, one of the best ps1 games (except for crash team racing of course

Beyond Good and Evil, Advent Rising, VtM: Redemption.

Banjo-Tooie needed a sequel. It shoulda been a trilogy. And dont try and say nuts & bolts was a sequel. it was too different.

 

[Random Guy]

Metal Arms: Glitch in the System: fun 3rd person shooter where you were a unique robots killing humourously voiced robots. It had this wicked sense of humour and just fun gameplay...plus listening to Krunk swear was fantastic.

It even ended on a "I'll get you next time" scene.

Jade Empire

 

[Cornugon]

Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem. Though it would be hard to pick up on the story, I'd love to see a sequel.

 

[ahrnygoose]

We need more of this, but with intense online multiplayer.

 

[quhouv vhqwiufv qwiu]

Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy

Completely agree. I was waiting years for a sequel then I realised we aren't ever getting one.

 

[EmzOLV]

Mirrors edge.

Ditto this - I would have loved to have seen a sequel, perhaps with some little things changed, but I just totally loved this game...

 

[ComicsAreWeird]

Final Fantasy.

ok--how about...Eternal Darkness and Vagrant Story?

Ever heard of Kya: Dark Lineage?

No, I didn't think so. Well, it was a great game for the PS2, but it could have been so much better. If they had fixed up the issues in a sequel, it would have been amazing.

Hmmm, seen that around several times but I always thought it looked unimpressive. Care to sell it to me? (Tell me the good features, why it's good, etc. I could look it up, but I figure someone who's endorsing it would be able to do a better job)

Uh... okay. It looks incredibly lame from the outside, but it's a really great game.

Okay. Because I happen to be rather tired, I'm going to copy paste from Wikipedia.
<spoiler=General Gameplay>Kya: Dark Lineage focuses on action-adventure platforming gameplay, with the player guiding Kya through a variety of stages. During the game the player can earn nooties, allowing them to return to the Nativ city to purchase items required to progress through the game. The player can purchase several items which allow Kya to increase her mobility, including the ability to climb slippery surfaces, perform wall jumps or ride fast-moving lizards called Jamguts. Whenever the player suffers damage, Kya can recover energy by draining it from big amber shards.

The game focuses strongly on the element of air, featuring various sequences in which Kya must use strong wind currents to her advantage (although these can also prove to be a disturbance in certain points). It also features several freefall sequences during which the player must control Kya's speed and the direction of her descent, which usually ends when Kya lands on a big flower called Amortos, serving as an air bag. The player will suffer damage by touching objects while freefalling, or instantly lose a life by landing on the ground (at which point the freefall sequence will be restarted).

Complementing the player's mobility is Kya's "Boomy", a magical boomerang-like weapon which allows Kya to cut ropes and attack enemies. The Boomy can be upgraded twice in the Nativ city, first allowing the player to aim it in a first-person perspective (Silver Boomy) and later (Golden Boomy), which allows the player to activate switches or attack normally unreachable foes. The player can also purchase explosive or electrifying bombs to damage foes. Additionally, there are purchasable traps that can be used to capture rare monsters for the Nativ zoo.
Puzzles, which often rely on items or creatures within the immediate environment to solve, are another part of the game. Other puzzles might require creative use of Kya's mobility or even use of her fully-upgraded Boomy's ability to be directed as the player wishes. Some may only be solved when the player has acquired the correct equipment for Kya from Nativ City.

Beyond the beginning portion of the game the player's advancement is based on three factors: The equipment they have purchased, the number of Wolfen/Wolfun Kya has turned back into Nativs and ultimately, the collection of all seven Runes. A total of 260 Nativs can be rescued throughout the course of the game, though the player is not required to rescue them all in order to confront Brazul and complete the game.

A highly praised hand-to-hand combat system which is very similar to modern brawlers is included, during which Kya is unable to use her ranged weapons and must instead engage her foes in melee with punches, kicks and throws. The player will engage in this form of combat whenever a Wolfen/Wolfun is near. Players start with only a few simple moves Kya learns from Akasa, though players can acquire more powerful bracelets in Nativ shops which increase the strength of Kya's attacks and allow her to use a greater variety of combat moves, such as grabbing Wolfen/Wolfun by their tails and spinning them around, or even riding on top of them to ram against others. Whenever a Wolfen/Wolfun is knocked unconscious, the player can exorcize it back into its original Nativ form, assuming Kya has enough Mana spheres.

Further adding to the diversity of the game are Magic Boards which allow Kya to rapidly descend across rocky or otherwise treacherous terrain. These sequences greatly resemble snowboarding games, though Kya initially is forced to simply slide down slippery areas on her feet. Later sequences require players to initially purchase and then upgrade Kya's magic board so that she can gain the ability to jump or rapidly increase her speed.

TL;DR, just read it. You asked a question, and I'm too lazy to answer it in short form. Let's not have TWO lazy nerds. The story and voice acting aren't really that impressive, but it's an incredibly fun game. I recommend you check it out sometime. If you can find it...

Ahh yeah I remember Kya.

Damn awesome game, really under appreciated.

Bionic Commando (not the new version) the new version was too different and wasnt realy Bionic Commando it lacked Hitler and the classic characther design (I know you can unlock it but Rad Spencer doesnt need dreadlocks)

 

[AniThari]

Sphinx And The Cursed Mummy. Seriously. I want some color and fun. Orange worm things that spit you out onto ledges, an immortal mummy who gets repeatedly squished/electrocuted/set ablaze, and crazy cartoon characters, seemingly impossible side quests-!

I mean I would like a lot of the games mentioned but we're running out of bullets, gritty realism, and evil corporations - now is the time for something bright and colorful without an apocalyptic touch. I mean a "no changing this mess" touch, not a "hurry save the world or else" touch.

SiN Emergence was a game I kind of enjoyed, and which had at least verbally jumped on the 'episodic' bandwagon (the same bandwagon that the wheels fell off shortly after because it was silly). They never made any more episodes though because the studio went bang.

Its not like the game had a good story or anything, I just quite liked playing it, seemed to place a nice kind of pressure on you. It was challenging, but not infuriatingly so. It had one of those dynamic AI things that adjusts to how well you are playing.
