Games That Deserve New Year Sequels
Retrogaming with Racketboy has a piece looking at 10 Games that 'need' a sequel. Each title is a deserving candidate for an updating, though probably some more than others. From the article: "Possibly one the best games of 2004, Beyond Good and Evil featured a magical combination of action, animation, and storytelling that won it high regard among critics. The game represented high quality and production values when most other games on the market were either re-hashes of other successful games or just plain awful. With all the unimaginative plots in games today, a series like BG&E deserves to live on. Of course, it didn't sell well in its first iteration, but much of the buzz about the game happened just a bit after stores started taking it off their shelves. Now that there is a healthier fan-base, a sequel might just flourish."
Uh huh, and the "there's not innovation in video games today" crowd modded this up to 5. Grow the fuck up, people. Stop whining. You don't like the games, find a new hobby.
