Firstly, I just want to say that you're a fool. First off, there wouldn't BE any Soul Reaver games if it wasn't for Kain... he's kind of integral to the storyline. Secondly, have you actually played (or watched) LoK - Defiance? I won't say too much just in case you haven't, but there's no way they could make another game revolving around Raziel.Gametek said:
I don't think they could even do a reboot of the series it was that good.
Anyway, OT:
If we're talking a sequel to a previously loved game that never got a sequel, definitely gotta go for Skies of Arcadia.
If you mean taking a terrible sequel, destroying it and making an awesome sequel in its place, Breath of Fire V. Seriously, it destroyed the series because it was so utterly terrible and far-fetched from the previous 4 games.
Another installment of "Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Raidō Kuzunoha" sub-series. Both of its titles are independent stories with the same main character, so they won't hurt as much. I'd like to see Raidō on the PS3 again. Preferably in the next title along with remastered versions of the previous two.
*Hide is coppie of defiance* No, never. I've heard that Raziel sacrified himself befoure the god to help Kain, but i dunno believe it. Thei'ar liing T.TByere said:

Never played Skies of Arcadia, but for BoF V I've something to say: the sooner you lose your hope for the japanese game industry, the better. I forgive only Nintendo, because they make child game... [my philosophical thinking, ndr.]Byere said:
legacy of kain: soul reaver, psychonauts, beyond good and evil, and if you don't know they why you should play those games before asking.

One of my favorite games of all time ever. The story line (up until the final few missions anyway) was amazing. That part when your fleeing manhatten with a battleship covering each gate out of the system? with that really intense music playing - it was incredible, I dont think i've played a game thats made me think "we're fucked" in quite the same way.
I still play it occasionally, with mods such as crossfire only expanding on the already fairly massive universe.
It hasn't got the complicated economic system of, say, the X series (a fine, fine series of games - but expect to have to invest lots of time in them) but the combat, the reputation system, constantly upgrading your ship, taking on missions. It was all great. The controls were excellent too, its the only space shooter I can think of where a mouse and keyboard are FAR better than using a joystick.
Yeah, I love Freelancer
Actually, I've just thought of another one: Freespace 2. I'm not going to mention what was so good about that one, if you havn't played it yet - your doing yourself a disservice. Its on GOG and impulse. Go get it.

THIS. 1000 TIME THIS. Seriously though, I can't even count how many times I've beaten DK2's campaign and the fact that it had the trailer for DK3 on the disc is just such a tease!TheEverix said:
OT: Black and White, Age of Mythology and Halo Wars.
Black and White: Because who doesn't enjoy throwing huge boulders at an enemy base?
Age of Mythology: It's AoE but with Minotaurs and The Titans was a freaking awesome expansion.
Halo Wars: As said earlier ITT, it was RTS on console done right and a second would be immense.
Hm-hm-hm... Oh, well, which sequels I'd like to see:
* Wizardry 9
* Planescape: Torment 2

Call of Duty!
I jest, I jest.
I'd have to say either a new Star Wars Battlefront game, on the PS3 sticking to the same formula as 1 but with updates graphics and engine....
or on par with that,
A PS3 JAK AND DAXTER GAME DEVELOPED BY NAUGHTY DOG - that would make my year.

I have no idea what you said at the end there... or half of what you're trying to say for bad spelling, but that's fine.Gametek said:
Yes, Raziel realises his is the soul that lives within the Soul Reaver sword due to the paradox that Kain created at the end of Soul Reaver 2. By allowing Kain to impale him with the Reaver, the paradox was fixed and the essence of Raziel (within the completed sword) allowed Kain to finally see, and fight, the God
Actually, I enjoy JRPGs a lot. I've lot a lot of faith in SquareEnix and Nintendo over the last decade or so because of the lackluster games they've produced in recent years.Gametek said:
I was extremely disappointed in BoF V.
Actually, they have 2 brilliant sequels for LoK: Soul Reaver (Blood Omen 2, great as it was, was still slightly lacking compared to SR2 and Defiance) and there's a sequel finally coming out for Beyond Good and Evil.Nightvalien said:
Never played Psychonauts but heard it's brilliant and a sequel would most likely be welcomed as long as they do it correctly.
I doubt Psychonauts really need a sequel. Brilliance of this game lies in that it's a complete story. I think it needs no continuation or smth (while storyline is opened for TBC's, they are really NOT NEEDED). Same story with BioShock or Portal*, for example.Byere said:
