The games industry may thrive on franchises, but for every mega-popular sequel there's bound to be ten utter failures. Most of these botched follow-ups flounder and die because they're poor games, but would people believe there are (gasp) totally decent sequels that came and went without so much as a pat on the back?
Countless sequels have been forgotten, but these are the games that, for one reason or the other, failed to stay in gamers hearts and minds. Some attained a small level of popularity and then disappeared; others were barely a blip on the radar. But they all deserve a second chance, so Games Radar is digging up their rotting corpses and parading them around the webtubes until someone decides to notice.
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

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.

INDIE Live Expo, Japan’s premiere online digital showcase series , will debut never-before-seen games & content updates across more than 100 titles on May 25th.
to put the Metroid sequel on the Gameboy. Although I always counted Super Metroid on Snes as the true sequel. And there isn't an older boxing game around the same time period as NES that can beat the original Mike Tyson's Punchout.
I thought Strider 2 was good though, even thought the original is still far better in my book.
I remember playing that game over and over again when it first came out.
I loved metroid 2 it was an awesome game.
Why is Guitar Hero Rocks the 80's on the list? It was forgotten because it was a full-price game with only half the content.
And they missed the obvious reasons for the Dragon Warrior (Quest) sequels. They were too fricken expensive. At $75-$100 carts, my mom refused to buy them for me.
I hope that they'll live again on the VC.
