10 Games That Should Have Had Sequels!

Despite having never played them, I second Eternal Darkness and Bully. I’ve heard nothing but good things about both of them.

[@Fortefyre]

You HAVE to play Eternal Darkness, Bully is whatever' it's a Rockstar game through and through, but Eternal Darkness is a must-play.

[@m0ocow_love783]

Thanks for the great list! Interesting games in there! And that dude who suggested it sure was a handsome devil!

[@CobraShuttle]

Great synopsis on Hagane! I still have to beat it before I can say if we need a sequel, but on paper yeah... we do. I like how you have a diverse group of genres from different generations. Keeps things interesting as a viewer and shows you give a damn about exploring what's out there. A true gamer!

[@Fortefyre]

I appreciate that! I never know what will come my way, it really depends on the focus that the viewers want. Right now I'm working on "franchise frenzy" which is a bag of different franchises, you never know what we will be playing.

[@universeexpandingbooksandt2821]

I want a sequel to Star Wars Republic Commando. The characters were great and the four man squad mechanics made me enjoy it more than Halo 2 from a few months prior. The fact that this game spawned a popular novel series should have been enough to show there was interest in a second game. Imperial Commando would have been a natural sequel concept.

[@Fortefyre]

Absolutely! I heard it was AWESOME.

[@bildo1977]

In Eternal Darkness, Alexandra is awakened by a phone call from a nightmare at 3:33am. 333, half the devil.

[@Fortefyre]

I still get weirded out by that statue that follows you on the 2nd floor.

[@mr.milehi9883]

Going through and giving thumbs up on lots of videos that I wasn't logged into watch. I know it helps. You do a real good job here man. Thanks.

[@Fortefyre]

That's beyond kind of you! Thank you!

[@Vertiginous]

Immercenary! Classic haha. Glad you included it though! Now get that long box copy!

[@Fortefyre]

And made a fucking typo. Lol. I left out the damn C. 🤣

[@pharmcat8484]

Another game I keep hearing about is Blue Dragon. Some people love it, some hate it. Might deserve a sequel. The 7th Saga deserves a remake and a sequel. Crystalis on the NES could have a “rebuilding civilization “ type sequel. So many choices.

[@Fortefyre]

There truly are!

[@CaptainAlgebra]

I would love a sequel to Diddy King Racing. Eternal Darkness, Bully, and L.A. Noire are high on my list to play, I just haven't gotten to them yet. Days Gone is a game I'd like to see a sequel for. It's too bad they canceled the one that was planned. It's the perfect mix of The Last of Us and The Walking Dead.

[@Fortefyre]

It took me a LONG time to check out many of the games I mentioned. There aren't that many games that "speak" to me in terms of storyline.

[@Riz2336]

I agree with Diddy Kong Racing. I had that game as a kid and enjoyed it and played it a lot

[@Fortefyre]

It was awesome!

[@roguerifter9724]

Freedom Fighters, made worse by the fact a sequel was announced as coming almost seventeen years ago but never arrived. Star Wars Rogue Squadron III Alpha Protocol Starflight II Colony Wars III Rival Schools: Project Justice Sunset Riders Robotrek

[@Fortefyre]

All exceptional games!

[@bildo1977]

Axelay 2 was teased if you beat Axelay on hard difficulty twice. We never saw it. 😢

[@Fortefyre]

It's such a shame when developers have high hopes for a sequel, so much that they put a teaser for the next game, and it just never happens.

[@user-tm7gh9hj5m]

Oh wow an axelay 2 would have been amazing.

[@Rob_1776]

I wish there was a Dantes Inferno sequel myself

[@Fortefyre]

Where he goes to the 7 layers of heaven :P

[@Rob_1776]

​@@FortefyreAgreed

[@mikeburkhart8336]

Magic of Sherazade on NES was a fun action/RPG combination game that was supposed to have a sequel, unfortunately the company that produced it,Culture Brain, went under before it was finished. Too bad,it really should have had a sequel.

[@Fortefyre]

I've actually never heard of that!

[@mikeburkhart8336]

@@Fortefyre It had a unique Arabian theme to it where you played as a prince who's sweetheart got kidnapped by an evil wizard (Of course...) and you were aided by genies and magical beings.

[@josephpalmer2903]

Great list by the way. Do 10 MORE games that should have had sequels. Like Legend of Dragoon

[@Fortefyre]

Added to the list! Don't forget, I do a monthly firefighter episode giveaway at the end of the month! It's on the community page when it happens :)

[@josephpalmer2903]

Damn Rockstar! They're the Daniel Day Lewis of the video game world. Masterpiece, and done. Except for GTA

[@Fortefyre]

That's what I've noticed at least.

[@jimmcclements5229]

I do enjoy what you do. I also like your honesty about games you dislike. I enjoyed playing Bully and LA Noire it’s too bad they don’t have sequels. I like how LA Noire ended.

[@Fortefyre]

I honestly don't think it could have ended any other way!

[@Marc_Araujo]

Yup, Torin's Passage...I've always wanted to return to the Lands Below. P.S. Chrono Trigger too...cuz Chrono Cross doesn't/shouldn't count.

[@Fortefyre]

It gets even more frustrating when you see the plans that were laid out for the series!

[@AinerPinkElteHyr]

Ljns Freddy Kruger, Chubby Cherub als a bloody Adult Version and Ljns Jason the Manhattan Trip

[@Fortefyre]

Hahaha nice

[@Danfrombackhome]

Sleeping Dogs…..man, that game

[@Fortefyre]

Right? It was SO good.

[@throwbjornlinks1921]

I want body harvest to have a sequel

[@Fortefyre]

I've never played that one!

[@josephpalmer2903]

Also, I'd love to see a top 10 best sequels to games. Metal Gear Solid would be all up in that. Pick your sequel

[@Fortefyre]

Added to the list!

[@shigshug8581]

Bully for sure.

[@Fortefyre]

I swear that Rockstar is the source of these "leaks" so they have a justifiable reason to cancel a game.

[@mattlockwood6089]

Symphony of the night 2

[@Fortefyre]

That would have been interesting!

[@pharmcat8484]

I’ll say Earthbound, only because I don’t consider Mother 3 real until it gets a proper English translation and port.

[@Fortefyre]

I've SEEN footage of Mother 3, but it doesn't look as fun.

[@BossZnakemaster]

Days Gone and Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance comes to mind.

[@Fortefyre]

I really need to check out days gone, it's not often that I get modern recommendations from the twitch side of things.

[@BossZnakemaster]

@@Fortefyre It got some flack early on from framerate issues on PS4. However if you have a PS5 you can have a great experience from what I understand at 60fps. I played through it on PC and had a great time.

[@pharmcat8484]

I’m struggling to think what you could add to Raft in a sequel.

[@Fortefyre]

MORE. WATER. I don't know lol.

[@uchusky08]

My answer: Final Fantasy Tactics. A game on the Gameboy Advance does not count.

[@Fortefyre]

BIG FACTS

[@sidneyvandykeii3169]

Vagrant Story needs a sequal. I disliked it my 1st playthrough and Loved it my 2nd and 3rd playthrough. The closest thing to it is FF XII, the Zodiac Age.

[@Fortefyre]

I couldn't get into Vagrant Story, I wanted to, but I couldn't even beat the first boss. Like fundamentally, I didn't know how to, the combat system and the sphere of influence was just WAY too abstract for me.

[@sidneyvandykeii3169]

@Fortefyre Combat system is why I hated it the first playthrough. Once you figure it out, it's fun as hell.

[@RaptorZX3]

Full Throttle (1995 point and click adventure game from Lucasarts, by Tim Schafer) It deserved a worthy sequel. They were working on one, for PS2 and Gamecube, but as i could have seen, it wasn't going to be good. Plus, Ben's voice-actor died in 2002. So i don't think we will see a sequel to that game anytime soon. It's better left alone, in my opinion. There IS a remaster of the game though, which is pretty good as well.

[@Fortefyre]

The Dig needed a sequel too!

[@Swim.Shaaady]

Once again, the optimal take on these games. That nail is hurtin from getting smacked on the head so much 😅

[@Fortefyre]

I have a badass episode coming out tomorrow, it's about the first 30 NES games, I'm excited to see how it does!

[@Swim.Shaaady]

@Fortefyre oh I'm sure it's gonna be a banger, can't wait to see it!
