Being a business, when a great game does poorly, it usually kills any hope of sequel in most cases, as the Ubisoft President recently mentioned.

Personally, last generation I was pretty bummed this little gem was not well received.

This was the most original Mega Man game in ages and the PSP was the perfect platform, with its 16:9 aspect ratio, which really fit the art direction.

Not only did they totally remake Mega Man 1 completely, but they added tons of bonus stages, allowed you play as the Robot Masters and create levels! It was insane content wise.

As great of a remake of MM1 was, I couldn't only help if this game was well received that we would've gotten the Holy Grail--MMPU2, my dream game.

Even if they used the same template--Chibi art direction, playable Robot Masters and stage creation mode for MMPU2, it would've been superior as MM2 is the arguably the best classic Mega Man game.

Now, with Inafune long gone and Capcom basically retiring Mega Man, I don't think my dream of a MMPU2 will be realized.

The designers made a HUGE mistake by not allowing K.O.s à la Smash Bros., i.e. by throwing opponents off screen. The fact you have to use a special power just sucks.

 

[TangerineCloud]

Enslaved: Odyssey to the West.

 

[Aeana]

Trauma Team, and the Trauma series in general. Trauma Team in particular because it opened up a whole new paradigm for the series with different disciplines and possibilities for future games. There could have been so many interesting things done.

 

[suko_32]

 

[abstract alien]

Zombi U apparently.

That game is the best survival horror in years, and a more pure form of what it is. I guess we won't be getting anything like that for a while now. Especially with the outstanding gamepad integration.

Alpha Protocol :-(

Nexus: The Jupiter Incident.

So unknown even a Kickstarter couldn't revive the franchise

This game was hardcore as fuck. I loved every bit of it, even if it was hilariously broken. The music, the feeling of dropkicking someone into lava, and the satisfaction of throwing your friends into trains? Aw yeah.

Too bad Sega delayed this game's US release for months and destroyed a lot of interest...

 

[DesuNe]

This every time. I cry myself to sleep because Goemon exists only as a Pachinko character now.

Gotcha Force.

That cliff-hanger...

Great world, hilarious and lovable characters, and a reasonably compelling plot.

Fixed.

 

[KAL2006]

The only right answer is Suikoden series. This should have been bigger as Final Fantasy series.

 

[direct_quote]

Yup rip 3d action brawlers. Funny thing is the ads for God Hand where non-existant when it was released and I didn't discover it until a couple years later >_<... Would have bought it on the spot.

Soul Bubbles

Street fighter 3: Third strike

Wish both of these would have been huge smashes somehow.

 

[Yawnier]

Kessen series and Dynasty Tactics.

Cause and effect:

Front Mission 4 sold poorly --> No Front Mission 5 for North America
Xenosaga II and III sold poorly --> Xenosaga series dies (

I want to say Okami, but it's had two re-releases and a DS sequel, so I can't say Capcom isn't trying.

I'll go with Psychonauts. I've been waiting eight years for that sequel.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Psi-Ops: The MindGate Conspiracy

Anyone who has beaten it know exactly what I'm talking about. The cliffhanger was bullshit.

 

[DrFaustPhD]

In light of the recent news from Yves, Zombi U, not because the game itself was great, but it showed so much potential for a really amazing sequel.

 

[cj_iwakura]

This is why we can't have nice things.

Xenosaga Episode 3. One of the best RPg's on PS2. Sad I wont see how the saga was supposed to end.

 

[Family Fry]

Surfing cars was fun. Really enjoyed this one more than I thought I would, music was awesome too.

 

[Frost_Ace]

Such a fresh original game with some of the funniest writing in the industry. Would have loved a sequel.

 

[Danlord]

If anyone checks my past posts will know I bring this game up every so often, but I really like it.

Heavenly Sword

Such a good game, well deserving of a sequel or 2 (It had been written as a trilogy, 2nd game rumoured to be in development by Sony Cambridge but then got axed for not being "commercially viable" )

F-Zero GX

The best racing game ever and you fools... you blew it up... damn you to hell

 

[Septimus Prime]

It's one of the best games ever made, and now we'll probably never see anything like it ever again.

Yep. Hopefully they end up revisiting it down the line anyways.

The designers made a HUGE mistake by not allowing K.O.s à la Smash Bros., i.e. by throwing opponents off screen. The fact you have to use a special power just sucks.

Debatable. Many of the people who ripped on PSAS before its release did so because they thought it was a Smash clone.

 

[Pops Maellard]

Had a great time with it. Shame they won't be releasing a sequel on consoles that will probably see decent sales.

 

[RPGamer92]

Alan Wake and Lost Odyssey

F-Zero GX

x100.

(Did it really sell that badly? F-Zero GX is the sole reason I bought an old Gamecube, and the sole reason I still have that Gamecube.)

 

[NoirVisage]

Cause and effect:

Front Mission 4 sold poorly --> No Front Mission 5 for North America
Xenosaga II and III sold poorly --> Xenosaga series dies (

Front Mission 4 came to America?

edit: Ha Ha, I played that game >__<
never finished it, but I liked it well enough up to a point.

Nier.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.

 

[majik13]

have to go with ZombiU, never played anything as intense and definitely best survivor horror in a long time.
