Games you wish they continued.

[Godfather]

Shenmue........

 

[DarkMatter]

Alien versus Predator - I loved that game and the atmosphere. The marine campaign in AVP2 was close to perfection.

Clive Barker's Undying - Scariest game I've played and enjoyed. I was younger though, so that might count.

And definately:

Severance: Blade of Darkness - It sucked you in and the fighting mechanism was really good once you got accostumed. Superb technology: real water reflections, dynamic lights and shadows ala Doom3, great physics (a bit buggy), wood objects could take fire and it propagated, dismemberment... And I'm talking about a 1999 game!! It didn't sell well because it was not properly marketed: only for Spain for almost 6 months, then only on Europe and after a year or so in the rest of the world. Probably because it was the first game made in Spain and distributors had no confidence, it was an AAA title. The company dissapeared and most of the developers apparently make cell phone games now.

That's what ArmA is I also heard of a second but idk if they canceled it or not

No, ArmA is the "sequel" to Operation Flashpoint.

Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale are my two biggest I wish they continued.

IGI2 was a brilliant "open plan" game in its time. Very dated now, but still, the essences of somethng good. An up to date IGI3 would be great.

SOF3. Yes, the *real* SOF3, designed for PC, and produced by Raven, that would be a 5 year update to SOF2. UNFORTUNATELY, there was a "SOF Payback" that was absolute tosh. And that has killed the SOF franchise IMO. No one would want to touch it now. :-(

Descent. I really enjoyed playing these. It stopped at 3.

me wants a new version of this game sooooo much!

[kysg]

Shenmue,
Kingpin,

Two titles I will always I love

Lunar series.
Shining Force main series - forget all the spinoffs just give me SF4 a non jap one and I'm cool
yea then there was Legend of Dragoon, man that game was great.
Then there is Shinobi, and lets not forget Strider Hiryu, our Ninja of the future.


Now some games honestly do not need remakes....or to be continued, just because I think sometimes the dev that makes either completely changes the aspect of the game or just makes it suck...

 

[Nosada]

Wing Commander (w Mark Hamill and fmvs, obviously) / Privateer (w Clive Owen and again, fmvs) / Elite

X-Com / UFO Defense (the first and second game, not all the crappy spinoffs)

Any old school space-4x game (think Master of Orion, Imperium Galactica, Ascendancy, Fragile Allegiance, etc etc ...)

 

[Polarman]

I believe a Syndicate remake/sequel is in the works.

Have'nt heard anything about this. If true, i look foward to find out more.

X-Com / UFO Defense (the first and second game, not all the crappy spinoffs)

Agreed. I was so disapointed with Aftermath. Remake often lack the magic of the orginal titles.

 

[EastCoasthandle]

SW: Republic Commando PC

Second! What ever happen to Sev?

And Xwing Series should have continued as well...

 

[btarunr]

Descent
Counter Strike: Condition Zero - Deleted Scenes. (that single-player campaign based game) I wish they took advantage of Source and made something on that concept.
Serious Sam - don't know if there will be a sequel.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

Freelancer
Mech Warrior
Mech Commander
Ground Control
Earth series
Warzone 2100
"Sim" games...I'd really like to see a new SimCompter and Streets of SimCity

 

[steelkane]

Motocross Madness & Blade of Darkness
I could play them games for hours & hours, I sometimes thought about putting together a pc just to play the older games, A friend came over the other day with a pc I built for him a long time ago, Gigabyte 5AX board with a AMD K6-2-550mhz, Geforce 2 MX-400, 128mb memory, WD 10GB HDD. It needed a new PSU, then fired up in to Windows98, Some old games were on there, one being Motocross Madness.

 

[WarhammerTX]

Nascar seeries

Im with ya on this to bad EA bought the rights and screwed it up. Payparus had it going on and EA got greedy and ruined another game

 

[JC316]

Alien versus Predator - I loved that game and the atmosphere. The marine campaign in AVP2 was close to perfection.

Ah man, I forgot about that one. I agree 100%, I loved BOTH of them, even if the predator was overpowered.

One more franchise that I would KILL to see redone right. Blood. Dear god I loved that game, no matter how buggy it was, I played the shit out of it. can you imagine it with todays tech?

If anyone ever wanted the Hexen series (like me) to continue, your hopes may be answered. Hexen:Edge Of Chaos is a TC for Doom 3. I have been following this since it's creation and I may have planted the idea with a suggestion for it on the planetdoom forums. It has been in development since 04 or 05 now and is close to completion.

yea true, EA is just getting disappointing now. It's like they have no idea what the paying customer wants...

 

[zithe]

I dunno. Battlefield Heroes looks promising.

 

[ktr]

Isn't Yakuza...Shenmue done right? God, I hope for Yakuza 3 to come out to the US.

 

[MadClown]

Mdk 3

They are resurrecting the mdk series and earthworm jim from what i hear

I hope to see a new Max Payne, Conker, Project Snowblind, Monster Truck Madness, C&C Generals and RoadRash to name a few.

 

[Lillebror]

They are?! Yaaaay!

"On November 13, 2007, GameSpot reported that Interplay Entertainment has announced that it will restart its in-house development studio and has plans to develop a MDK sequel among other classic Interplay IPs if Interplay can secure financing. GameSpot stated that:
“ Among the projects Interplay has said it wants to develop are sequels to Earthworm Jim, Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance, Descent, and MDK, provided it can find the financing. ”

Also, Interplay has confirmed a two-pronged growth strategy which will see the company leveraging its portfolio of gaming properties to create sequels. Among those mentioned was the MDK sequel."

Just found that on the net!

lucas arts outlaws....... the only good western shooter i have ever played. still one of my favs

 

[Pinchy]

Counter Strike: Condition Zero - Deleted Scenes. (that single-player campaign based game) I wish they took advantage of Source and made something on that concept.

Yer that was good...its just a shame it was never popular .

 

[Gregsm]

Among what was posted before - Carmageddon that was my first pc game, that I bought, for my first pc in 1998 I think. I was like 10 years old, went to pick my first game without any idea whats going on in the games world. This game box got my attention. I always wanted racing game with destructable cars, but with at the same time killing pedestrians it could get any better. Now theres GTA though, but still another arcade racing, more specialized on wicked car mods, lots of bloody mess with photo realistic graphics, would be awesome!
