I’m a huge fan of the Alien franchise, so much so that I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the “prequel” Prometheus film last year. Of course some franchises just don’t seem to get stories right and thus in turn it frustrates the fan base. Take Aliens 3 for instance. What was a highly anticipated sequel after Aliens turned out to be in fact one of the worst in the series. I can say with a smile that this is the Aliens 3 version you've truly been looking for.
Too many games aren't given a second shot. We at VGU choose which games we would love to see receive a sequel.
The Saboteur - criminally underrated and a fantastic mechanic of bringing colour back to Nazi-occupied Paris.
The article lists Bulletstorm, Sleeping Dogs, and Aliens: Colonial Marines.
Player 2 takes some quiet time to look back at some of the most hyped failures of the past 10 years.
Can't argue with any of those really, but I would add Resident Evil Operation Racoon City and Metal Gear Survive to that list. Both terrible games from good franchises.
Bulletstorm, I actually liked the gameplay but the atrocious writing and characters made me despise the game by the end of it.

This article is incorrect the game is delayed for wii u, hopefully the port from Demiurge Studios will be as good or better than the other versions. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
