Where Did These Games Go? 16 Games That Need A Sequel

Here at the ANGRY pixel, we kick-start the New Year by taking a look at some of the titles that we would love to see again over the coming years, some of them gone MIA after being announced and the others yet to be introduced to the world. With sequels and "spiritual successors" such as StarCraft II, Diablo III, Wolfenstein, Beyond Good & Evil 2, Dragon Age and Escape from Dark Athena set to emerge over the coming years, it was quite difficult to come up with our own list considering there are so many articles out there about which titles should get a sequel.

Even if they do crack down all a person needs is an Everdrive and a regular old school machine. Or modify a disc based console that has a dead laser to boot off an SD card. Some of those illegal devices look neat and some of them are just plain crap.

This won't stop it unless you have a great service.

What a stupid thing to be wasting time, money and effort. Aren't these guys literally drowning right now? Maybe y'all should focus more on that instead trying to stop people from playing old games no longer being sold.

Pretty sure I've read and seen parts of Italy experiences/ing pretty bad floodings. Id argue that's more important than trying to prevent the sale of emulation devices.
