Games That Deserve A Sequel
The truly great studios put a lot of work into creating immersive, replayable games that live on in our collective memories. Originals are often a roll of the dice. The viability of a sequel, however, is almost always based on the success of the original. Some games sell well and get decent reviews, but follow-ons get rerailed due to other factors.
In putting this story together, we polled the Tom's Hardware audience on Facebook and cross-referenced the scores at Metacritic to come up with a list of fifteen games that deserve (but lack) concrete evidence of sequels.

when i read this i thought it was going to be old games that fell off the map, not a whole bunch of new games... of all the games i only really agree with 4 of them...
but no roller coaster tycoon, sim city, nox, ultima, balders gate, never wither nights, i mean really... no one remembered those games?
Will it become completely unrelated to the first except in the fact you blow up and parkour; or will Sean play a part in the Cold War or a more regional one perhaps?
For indie games, Shadowgrounds needs a sequel (I'm not counting the Survivor prequel).

This is about sequels not reboots. That's a whole other can of worms mate.
I'd still like to see a Shining Force game come out.

... they don't make them like this anymore....
Spellforce 2
Rage of Mages 2
Neverwinter Nights 2
Open world space sims are awesome. Too bad X3 is spreadsheets in space and EVE: Online WOW in space. Privateer was about as much fun as I've ever had gaming.
How about remaking a flawed gem like Messiah, ey?
