Whatever happened to...?
« on: August 13, 2004, 04:31:22 AM »
Here is the thread where you name a franchise that you once loved but seems to have dropped off the face of the earth... I\'ll start.


Strider   - Come on Capcom, Strider 2 was friggin\' brilliant. I can only imagine a third one in the same glorious 2.5D.

Star Gladitor - Capcom\'s first foray into the 3D Realm. I for one liked it..-shrugs-. I know there was a sequel, but I cannot remember the name of it.

Turok/Acclaim - used to be killer in the mid 90s but as everyone knows they\'ve been on a downward spiral.

Star Gladiator was damn fun, it would be cool if it came back.

Mario - Mario64 was the last great game.  Nintendo had 2 chances to better it but didn\'t succeed.

Double Dragon & Battletoads - so much potential

Batman games

Killer Instinct - this is my favorite fighting game and it\'s been years since a sequel.  Rare commented that they will be updating all their franchises...but, does Nintendo own KI?

NiGHTS - honestly this was a no brainer as a series yet Sega never made a sequel:(  They\'ve teased about it making that Christmas edition and numerous ads in other Sega games.  PLEASE!!  Me wants!!!!

THX - EA has the right\'s for the next Batman game, which is based off of Nolan\'s \'Batman Begins\'. Development has started. As of recently EA has had great luck with their movie based titles (LoTR / James Bond), so I have high hopes.

Ginko -  I have to agree that it\'s odd that we have not seen an update to the Killer Instinct franchise. I do not think Nintendo own\'s it. It\'s just unreal, when you think back in the 90\'s and how the arcades was packed due to Killer Instinct and there was a good sucess on the home consoles also!

As for NiGhTS, well, Sega is on crack. Instead of givin\' us a sequel, they port it to the GBA...WTF?

Just to remind LIC.....SEGA is known for its lack of business savy.

Both were great -- but both companies are retarded for not making more.

Where to begin?

Altered Beast

Golden Axe

Shenmue

July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

Power Stone.. yes. Shenmue is getting a sequel of sorts..

Well, personally.. I can say that the sequel to Earthbound needs to come out within the next 3 years..

It should, too. I believe it was announced for the GBA not too long ago.

powerstone
Einhander
Hellfire (genesis)
Killer Instinct (still play it to this day (snes version)).
Mystical Ninja (SNES one was ok but i love the 64 version)
Jet Grind(set) Radio ( I remember when they were thinking of doing a ps2 port but said it couldnt do the texturing. I loved the first game and i only got to play a bit of the second. I bet they might be able to pull it off)

so many that i cant think of.

Sonic? Id love to play a new Sonic Adventure on my GameCube.

Btw, is the sonic game for Gamecube one of the adventures or something else?
