10 Games That Deserve Sequels and Remakes

If you saw last years line up of games, you would have noticed a LOT of sequels came out. Far Cry 2, Gears of War 2, GTA IV, Call of Duty 5, Fallout 3... the list seemed endless. Some were good, some only average. Some may have tarnished the reputation of their series beyond repair. It's just the risk developers take when they choose to continue a tried-but-true game type.

More than remakes, it's absolutely criminal that so many games NEED sequels. I'm not talking about games I would enjoy another addition to. I mean games that physically CUT OFF at a cliffhanger or were announced as a series only to falter and fade into obscuria.

XIII & Legacy of Kain are good ones.

My sequel suggestions: Shenmue, KOTOR, Advent Rising

As for remakes...I would LOVE Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow Over Mysteria on XBLA/PSN. Even if it's just a port with added online multiplayer functionality. It seems absolutely perfect for it. Capcom, WOTC: make this happen.

UltraNova5520d ago

My first choice is Shadow of the Colossus, just the shear scale of that game is unbelievable, not to mention its simple yet powerful story. With the power of ps3 under the hood this game would be a killer!

One other game is the darkness... The story and the whole idea of the game was brilliant. I would say it defiantly deserves a sequel.

Me personally
The Bouncer sequel
Metal Arms sequel
Mark the Garou sequel
Shinobi sequel
Oh and of coures Final Fantasy VII Remake

While, it has a sequels name, the game itself was completely different than the original farcry which was a great game and looked amazing at the time. It came out of nowhere and made the yet to be released Doom 3 look much less impressive as a power house game. Guess thats unrelated, but I really liked the original farcry.

Sangria5520d ago

Legacy Of Kain and Vampire Bloodlines are probably my highest wishes in terms of sequels, i love them.

The-Director5520d ago

Black from the PS2, one of the best shooters on that console.

Tony P5520d ago

Oh yeah, they really need to do a Black 2 already. Pretty good game and it has plenty of room to grow. Also, the story cut off abruptly at the end there. :/

Hopefully, that rumour going around will bear fruit in a 2009 announcement for Black: Second Mission.

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
