5 sequels that should never have been made

PS3 Attitude: "Introducing a new weekly feature, in which PS3 Attitude takes an irreverent* look at the world of gaming. Today we’re discussing five sequels that, if we had our way, would never have seen the light of day; although, in a way we’re glad they did, because otherwise we wouldn’t have been able to write this article.

*At least 37% of the following is probably incorrect."

Dragon Age 2 should be on the list

da_2pacalypse4316d ago

I would give you 10 speech bubbles for that comment if I had the power lol. DA2 is just horrible lol.

guitarded774316d ago (Edited 4316d ago )

If it's a role playing game that needs to be on the list my vote is for Final Fantasy X-2. It was like a Japanese Charlie's Angels.

Anon19744316d ago (Edited 4316d ago )

Why the hell should DA2 be on the list. The first one was a blast, the second one wasn't as good as the first but could still hold it's own. I didn't think DA2 was great by any stretch of the imagination, but I had fun with it, and the majority of reviewers agreed. If DA2 was released on it's own without the first to compare it too, no one would have said boo about it because as a stand alone rpg, it wasn't bad. It's only crime was it wasn't as good as the original. I've seen plenty of rpg's come out worse than DA2 but none seem to merit the hate that DA2 receives.

Yes... erasing standards is good for the gaming industry /sarcasm

MacDonagh4315d ago

DA 2 was a bit of a misstep compared to Origins, but there were some good things about it. The plot was more grounded and had applicability; not to mention it was a great cave simulator.

I LIKED All 4 One for what it was.

BiggCMan4316d ago

SAME HERE!! All 4 One was a great addition to the series, I don't see why these guys are hating on it. I'm a good ways through it now with a buddy of mine online, and it's loads of fun. The co-op "things" (dunno the correct word here), make it a lot of fun.

I think they are looking at this game like the other games, which is an incorrect way of looking at it. It's different, and if you play with a good friend whom also loves the series, it will be great. I haven't played by myself outside of the very first level, so I don't know of the AI problems.

guitarded774316d ago

I liked because it was free with my PS+ this month.

Mintyrebel4316d ago

One opinion piece I actually agree with! Good on you!

sriki0074316d ago

duke nukem was the worst!!!! And what with 10 years in development.. Pathetic game.

ps3rulz4316d ago

I actually liked duke nukem forever. Sure it had a lot of flaws but i enjoyed it, am i the only one?? Lol

Hicken4316d ago

Ten years and half a dozen developers and you expected it to be great? It'd be different if only one team had worked on it for all that time, but...

Dandizzle577d ago

God damn Megadeth Duke Nukem anthem is the best.

Snookies12577d ago

It is pretty amazing, I remember being so hyped that they covered the Duke theme back when it happened haha. I still quite enjoyed Forever though personally.

Venoxn4g577d ago

It is great, you should check out Eric Calderone - Duke Nukem meets metal .. thats proper as well

"so wrong yet so right"

Only a few will know what Im talking about lol :D

porkChop619d ago

Wow, that advanced lighting makes a huge difference to the visuals. I get that Gearbox tried to slap everything together and release a finished product. But it seems like they cut out a lot of content that would have made the experience more enjoyable. That's a shame.

Number1TailzFan619d ago

Nerfed due to consoles.. and not the first time it has happened.

-Foxtrot619d ago

Kind of amazing the difference a lighting engine makes

Number1TailzFan619d ago

Same, the AI could be pretty dumb but the bosses were fun. I thought the levels (mostly) got better later in the game too.

XiNatsuDragnel619d ago

Devs nerf a game man best quote I've ever heard.
