Uneeded Game Sequels

[Daedalus1942]

As time goes by, I'm finding the number of sequels coming out to be absurd, and it's inevitable that some are terrible.

Which sequels, either already released, or upcoming, do you guys think didn't need to be made, or that you thought was terrible?


For me, I'd have to say the new Wolfenstein. I mean really.. it could have gone so much better, but I apparently paid 65$ for an only semi-decent sci-fi nazi FPS.

Sorry, but the greatest fail of all time sequel is easily Alundra 2
Anyone who disagrees with me is very wrong.

FF X-2 did not need to be made & should not have been made. CoD5 was terrible & should not have been made, especially since they were making CoD: MW2. There are so many grisly sequels it's hard to prioritize them all -_-

Mass Effect 2. The first one was perfect, so there's no need for a sequel.

I'd disagree. The first was great, but with a universe as expansive as that of Mass Effect, I'd love to see more of it. After all, we only got to see how many alien species? A dozen or so? Either way, untill Mass Effect starts getting old and stale, I'll always want more out of it.

Halo ODST seems like a good sequel, but why can't it be about where Master Chief drifted to? Another would be most sports games. Have they changed at all since the first of the genre?

Because ODST is a prequel to Halo 3.

I will agree with you on the sports games, though. They have made them better along the way, but I don't think there's a need to release a new one every freakin' year.

And while I have been a tool and bought the guitar hero games, they really just should have released it all as DLC, or at least as cheap expansion discs or something.

But what really bugs me is Left 4 Dead 2. Way too soon, and kind of pointless.

Seriously? Pokemon Snap was a fun game, in my opinion. Sure it wasn't one of the main games, but it was fun. I guess some people don't have patience for games like that.

And if anything was a Pokemon cash-in, it was Pokemon Puzzle League.

Bioshock 2. The original was perfect and had a satisfactory, stand alone, ending. I wish they didn't feel the need to milk the cash cow.

Well at least the leveling system was interesting even though it was the same thing as FF5 I think but other than that nothing good came out of it...

starcraft 2, the first one wasnt that good, why do ppl need another

I agree with this disagreement. There's plenty of story left, and Bioware has said since the beginning that they're making a trilogy.

I agree with your disagreement. Besides, there's plenty of story left, and Bioware has said all along that they're making a trilogy.

Indeed. Although I will admit I'll be heartbroken if the Krogans die out in the third.

Every Tomb Raider and Spyro sequel.

starcraft 2, the first one wasnt that good, why do ppl need another

Because it is one of the best RTS's out there...

 

[CD repo man]

manhunt 2

we get it. baseball bat+head=fountain of goo on the wall.

 

[VanityGirl]

Wheelman 2.... i hope they never make it.

Mass Effect 2. The first one was perfect, so there's no need for a sequel.

So, it was planed as a trilogy from the beginning . . . and you don't want them to finish the story of a game you loved? Seriously, they left plenty of plot threads dangling at the end of the first one, plus they seem to have made a shitload of gameplay improvements. What's not to like?
