Necessary Sequels

[Yukari]

Sometimes you finish a game, and then realize that there are pleasant of loose ends that were left untied. Or you just love a game so much that you want more of it. Regardless of why there are probably video games that we all feel just need sequels. So what are some sequels that you want to see?

My pick is Megaman X9. While Megaman X8 was really just average I did enjoy playing it. But it left a lot of loose ends untied story-wise. What happens to axl? Is Sigma really dead? Though if you're really a Megaman fan you would know that

Spoiler:

Sigma isn't permanently killed until the mother elf is created.

And when do the elf wars begin? So at the end there are a lot of unanswered questions. And I would love to see a new Megaman X game in general aside from the unanswered questions.

Though knowing Capcom it'll never happen.

I kinda feel we're at a point with LoZ that the TP timeline needs to be forwarded. Not a sequel persay, but in general that line of canon is the one without restraints, but also the one that could expand on the evolution of Hyrule the best by going from OoT->TP->Wii U(?) Zelda in terms of both a technical evolution in size and what not, but story wise. Much like how TP felt like OoT after 100 years or so, that's what I want from Zelda U.
Anyway, the obvious 1999 Castlevania we'll never get. Or on a less known yet needed game series, Summoner 3. The lore of that world is amazing, and I want another one. Too bad Voilition is stuck on Saint's Row.

Forever impatiently waiting on Jak 4.

Condemned was a great game imo, and while the second one was marred by "every game needs multi-player" it did set up a pretty interesting story and world. In the past they talked about rebooting, and I think it would be great if they did. But the fact is that it's extremely unlikely at the moment.

Also, FRIGGIN MEGEMAN LEGENDS 3, CAPCOM! YOU BASTARDS!

 

[Sonata]

I could really go for a Misadventures of Tron Bonne sequel. But that will never happen. So much sad since that was and still is in my top 5 favorite games of all time.

I would love this. The Child Timeline holds some of my favourite Zelda titles (MM and TP). Everything is grander and more epic in that timeline. Even Four Swords Adventures, while 2D and constrained, just felt like a world so full of life.

Don't have much in mind but here we go:

Descent: Freespace 2
Freelancer
Chrono Cross (well...there was Chrono Break hype at one point but sadly that project was canceled)

Not to forget to mention that I'm an avid retro gamer...

I'm sure there are a lot of games that I'd personally like to see some sequels for, but it's kind of tough to think of any at the moment, unfortunately...

Off top of my head, I'd say one would probably have to be Megaman Battle Network. If I'm not mistaken, this series ends after Network 6. Most games within the particular series do follow through their anime counterpart and whatnot, but in terms of latter, a lot more things go in latter in terms of plot and whatnot, which, I believe, they would be able to base one more game off.

Hope I made some sense there! I understand that not much people did not continue to keep up, but nonetheless, I'm sure there are many fans out there that would have loved it had there ever been a continuation, including myself. A group of friends even started working on a fan-game themselves to portray how Battle Network 7 could have possibly been if Capcom had actually developed it, but unfortunately, I don't believe they have managed to fully complete it.

Obviously Zero Escape "3" (in quotes because it's gonna be pre-sequel)

 

[Necrum]

It's never gonna happen, but if they made a new Meat Boy game I would buy it instantly because it's like the best platformer ever.

 

[Megan]

I'm still waiting for the third installment of Golden Sun. Dark Dawn just didn't feel like a true successor to the first two games and was more like a spinoff. I mean the main plot device that you see at the beginning simply gets ignored for the rest of the game.

 

[DJTiki]

Crash Twinsanity 2- We NEED another game like this. It was buggy sure and short, but it was hella fun.

We definetly need a TP follow up. I would love to see that world revisited again :)

There is a Super Meat Boy sequel being made.

I've mentioned it so many times now, but seriously. The World Ends with You 2. And Sleeping Dogs 2, as well. But of course, Square Enix will never give the fans what they want, will they?

Oh, that goes completely against something that Edmund McMillan said before, which was that he wanted to use the characters more but not make a sequel to SMB. Well I guess things change, haha. Well this is definitely great news, especially with the new Isaac coming. Lots of awesome. There is also an improved version of Aether planned.

Well to keep this on topic, another sequel I would love is a follow up to Jade Empire. It's a great world that was very flushed out and I would love to see it again.

Also a more traditional new Crash Bandicoot game would be nice. I never got into the redesigned ones. I want Naughty Dog to make it, but they won't.

 

[BrandoSheriff]

Please, Square Enix? ;_;

 

[Diggerez]

We need a final fantasy 7 remake :)

 

[Satoshi Ookami]

We need a final fantasy 7 remake :)

It appears to be in development for PS4.

But of course, Square Enix will never give the fans what they want, will they?

Of course, they will do new FF instead to feed the biggest lie in gaming history =D
(You know, the lie about "Final" Fantasy being... final)

Yeah, but few devs stick to their word when it comes to sequels.

Well, I have to give some credit to Square Enix, though. After three FFXIIIs and all the poor decisions over the past few years, they are finally starting to get back on track. Final Fantasy XV and Kingdom Hearts 3 look good.

And also, Rockstar needs to give us sequels to both Bully and Red Dead Redemption. Seriously.

 

[Ω Ruby and α Sapphire]

I really think this thread needs more Half Life 3.

 

[El Héroe Oscuro]

People have probably never played/heard of these games I'm about to list, but I really wish that a sequel was made for both Vanquish and Dante's Inferno. Both are excellent, superb games in my opinion, but unfortunately because of the dismal sales that both produced there really isn't any plans for sequels in the work. Which is really unfortunate considering both of the games were left on pretty big cliff hangers - it would have been nice to get some closure.
