I was just thinking about some of the awesome game franchises that sadly never got a sequel. It's such a shame. Of course it's mainly a matter of taste when it comes to which games belong in here, but some of 'em actually were quite successful. Anyways here it goes:

Full Throttle
Urban Chaos
Oni
Sacrifice
Messiah
Outcast
Evolva
Project: Eden
Hardwar

I'm probably missing a few, so join in and add your favorites-but-never-got-a-sequels to the thread,

Cheers

Nice list.

I would add Hardwar.

Totally! Hardwar is another one of those gems deserving a sequel.

Cheers

Airfix-Dogfighter
Revolt
Quake 3 <<-- best MP Movement ever

I agree with all games listed so far, even though I sort of had in mind not to list games that actually did get a sequel. It's all good though as the topic is 'old games deserving a sequel'.

I realize there are a lot of games with quite dissatisfying sequels out there, so feel free to post those as well. Please say why you didn't like the sequel(s) that díd came out for those games.

I think Quake 3 is a good example. They didn't really care about the Quake 1 legacy, instead they used the franchise to create something new. It's not all bad as the game is fun to play and all, but perhaps it should have become a new franchise all together. There hasn't really been a true Quake sequel. I guess this is true for many games where developers decided to 'try something new'.



Heck yes, another very cool game that deserves a sequel!

Cheers

Wizard of Wor
Gunstar Heroes
Landstalker (there have been derivates and remakes, but not a real sequel)
Panzer Dragoon Saga


There aren't that many games where I'mmissing a sequel which means many of my favorite games actually GOT a sequel. For the remaining games, maybe it is good that they have no sequel, that makes them really outstanding...?
