View Full Version : Games that should have sequels

There are a lot of shitty games that come out every month. But sometimes a game goes unoticed, besides a small article of praise in a gaming mag. Sometimes these games get bigger, better sequels. More often than not, they are never heard from again.
Discuss sequels you'd like to see. Or even games that had a sequel, that you would like to see another of.
Psi-ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy
Honestly, one of the most straight up, fun games I've ever played. Amazed no one came up with the concept sooner. The controls are absolutly phenomenal. The ending is actually a cliffhanger, as Midway planned on making more. But sales, unfortunatly, did not warrant a sequel, despite this games' awesomeness. If you havn't played it, go to your local gameshop and pick it up for only $10. Well worth it.
Freedom Fighters
Really cool storyline, great gameplay, and fantastic level design make this game a good pickup at $10, used. It's squad based, but more action oriented than games like socom, or rainbow six. You can give your soldiers 1 of 3 simple commands, and then shoot away. It's not as deeply tactical as those other games. More about plain old, blowing shit up. So much they could do with a sequel, though.

I thought Freedom Fighters was terrible but definitly thought Psi-ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy was sick.

Suikoden 2. Yes there's been 2 (soon to be 3) other Suikoden games since this one, but none have followed up the Suikoden 2 story.

I'd give my left testicle for a REAL Final Fantasy Tactics sequel (or half a dozen). That GBA game does not count since it blew.

I would like to see Beyond Good and Evil II, because the first one was fucking immense.
Also, another Monkey Island and Grim Fandango.

WWF No Mercy. They should release it on the DS and it will be freaking awesome.

Super Mario RPG. Not PaperMario or Mario and Luigi, but a direct sequel to Super Mario RPG.
Same style (so I guess it'd have to be for GBA), and same characters, same world (though naturally with more locations)

That's ok. The PSP is so powerfull it will probably emulate the DS one day. :p

yeah a sequel to McKids (or McDonald Land as it was known here) would be good.

DS and PSP both suck, so it really doesn't matter.
Legend of Dragoon 2 would be nice to see, and a sequel to Phantom Dust would just be interesting (like, helping to rebuild the carnage and keeping creatures from destroying it and all).

Yes, but I think DS is retarded (the games are crappy and the dual screen is just too hectic for me), and PSP is just another way to say portable DVD player.
BTW- Sega Gamegear > Nintendo Gameboy. And yes, I said it.

Mario & Luigi 2 = ratings. So does Viewtiful Joe. So does Meteos. So does Kirby Canvas Curse. Mario Kart is pretty hot too, although not like the other in the franchise. Also, backward compatibility with GBA games is greatness. Also not every game uses both screens. Mario Kart basically uses it as a map of the course.
How does that suck exactly?

And the PSP has some great NES, SNES, Genesis, Gameboy, and even GBA emulators for it. Although you do have to buy a memory stick with higher copacity to hold all the ROMs.
There are flash cards for the GBA that allow you to play emultaors on the GBA, and thus the DS, as well. I've never used one, but they work as I've heard...

The sweet Spider-Man and Venom games that were in the SNES. Both games were absolutely fantastic. It would be sweet now, because they can take the same gameplay, but add more moves, levels, better graphics, more building climbing.

Certainly sounds like it could be an MM sequel.

Yeah it was. It starred Bernard and was for the PC. It had voice overs and stuff and even though I never played Day of the Tentacle, it doesn't look interesting to me. I'd rather have a sequal like the origonal.

Startropics: And im not counting the crappy Zodac's revenge that came out for NES. I want a new sequel for xbox or something.
Indiana Jones and the Emporeres Tomb: I absolutely loved this game. I keep waiting for another Indy game to come out like this, but havent read anything yet.

Earthbound
Zombies Ate My Neighbors
For Earthbound, Mother 3 (Mother is the Japanese name for Earthbound) was supposed to be in the works for the N64, but got canned, I think. http://starmen.net/ Is more or less THE Mother/Earthbound site, and I think it's got news about a possible GBA release of all the Mother games (including 3 and the very first NES one. The Earthbound we know on the SNES is Mother 2. Don't ask!)
As for ZAMN, Ghoul Patrol on SNES was the sequal, but I don't think it did that well as a sequal (although the female kid WAS kind of hot looking in that).

Oh man, no sequal thread on ANY game board I go to is not complete without mention BG&E, and with good reason. I'm with you there, it had ALOT of good things going for it, and succeeded in doing nearly EVERYTHING right.

Mother 3 even has a page on the Japanese Nintendo site, though as yet, no actual info TMK.
ZAMN had a proper sequel too, which had as much to do with the original game as Star Wars: Episode 3 had to do with The Godfather.

Kill. Switch - They need to make it possible to play with two playable characters with their own story lines, multiplayer mode (like deathmatch, co-op, team deathmatch :drool: ) Make it longer, the places should be more well-known places (Las Vegas, L.A., N.Y., Washington, D.C., Chicago.), more interactive areas (if you shoot a gas tank near an emeny, it should blow up or shoot a pipe line near an emeny, the smoke can stun him for about 5 sec.), a long shot but the enemies don't go the same path if you start a mission over...damn this game's sequel could be the game of the year.
