Awesome games that need a sequel!

Just my list of games that I wish had a sequel

List items

  • This was GTA 4 before GTA 4 came out.

  • My favorite space sim of all time. I have no idea why this genre died and really would love to see someone work on a new game.

  • Doubt this one will ever happen now that Iron Lore shut down, but I'd love to see a sequel to this game based upon another mythos. Maybe dark ages / holy grail setting?

  • Yes yes, civilization 4... blah blah. The best 4x game though was Alpha Centaruri and I'd love to see a true sequel made.

  • I know this got a sequel, but I'd love to see a real one made this time!

  • I know that Dragon Age is a spiritual successor and all, but I'd much rather see a new game set in the Forgotten realms universe. I'd be perfectly happy with a new Infinity Engine game.

  • I hide no shame that I'm a WoW geek. I've been playing since launch and at this point I'd rather see a World of Starcraft game then a new expansion pack.

  • Completely surprised this one never got a sequel. It was early enough in the Infinity Engine's cycle to warrant one.

  • One of the forgotten Lucas Arts games, outlaws was a blast over multiplayer but also had a pretty decent single player game as well. It surprises me that no one has ever made a decent western shooter since.

  • Ok, yes I know I'm nerding it up with Infinity Engine games but I loved the combat in IWD2 and wish I could get a 3rd.

  • Great game, but even when it was released it looked absolute horrible. I'd like to see it turned into a pure turn-based combat system using something similar to TOEE.

  • Massively underated game mostly because it was targetted at hardcore RPG nerds who had gotten spoiled by rich storylines from BioWare. This game had none, but to me had possibly the best pure DnD combat system ever made. I wish someone would make something similar.

  • Cryptic got half of the City of Heroes MMOs right. The game featured amazing powers, fighting and customization, but the battle and dungeon system just wasn't deep enough to keep me playing.

  • The best football game ever made. This one is begging for a current-gen remake.

Dave, the other outdated stuff here has been pointed out, though it would be fun to hear your opinions on those sequels. Also, it seems like Project Eternity is going to be the closest thing we'll ever get to a sequel for all that Infinity Engine stuff!

I'm not sure when you made this list, Dave, but we're in production on a sequel-of-sorts to Titan Quest. Iron Lore disbanded (read: "was destroyed by THQ"), but a bunch of us are building Grim Dawn now as Crate Entertainment.

Nice list but very outdated as many of the games have sequels already :D 
 
Btw, the closest thing to a sequel to Titan Quest would be Grim Dawn by CRATE, the same guys who were laid off after Iron Lore disbanded. 
 
I'm sure you're aware of Mafia IIDeus Ex: Human Revolution, and even Dragon Age: Origins (spiritual sequel to Baldur's Gate).

I would humbly suggest that you also add Freelancer to your list. A great open world multiplayer sandbox game with customizable ships and an economy and all sorts of coolness. Looked gorgeous for the time, and has limitless potential that Microsoft just shelved. I know a lot of people that would be extremely interested in a sequel.

I think Colony Wars (PSX) needs a new modern sequel.

Not played a single one.
 
The game I've always wanted to see a sequel to is Rock 'n Roll Racing.

I haven't played most of these, but thumbs up for Alpha Centauri, Freespace 2, and Deus Ex.

My vote goes for Alpha Centauri... still one of my favorite games that I return to often. I'd like to finally get into Arcanum one day, I spent so much time making a character but could never get a hang of the combat. And as for World of Starcraft, that would be a wet dream. Heck, I would flunk out of college playing it.

Dude. 
Mutant League football. 
One of the seminal moments of my gaming life was using a brood-looking alien and exploding through a robot looking defender for a touchdown. 
Too true it's needs a sequel. 
Merry Xmas Dsnide.

I'd like to believe that the developers of PS: Torment felt that the story was complete and didn't demand a direct sequel as well. Another game with the same setting, engine and brilliant writing would be great, but it would have to tell a completely new story.

I think old Planescape's lack of commercial success sort of dictated its never getting a sequel.  Too bad.  One of the most interesting, atmospheric games I've ever played.  Now I want to play it.
 
I would love to MAKE an infinity engine game, but I'd probably want to do something weird with it rather than doing the expected thing.  Had a fantasy about making a Buck Rogers conversion for it at one point.  Favorite part in the first BG was roaming the countryside.  Want to do something like that, but I wonder if there isn't a better engine for it...
