I like how every thread in Console Discussion gets horribly derailed.

Hey this thread is great - this blows any political debate out of the water in terms of humor.  LIC is still the king of put downs in my book. :)

I am with BS regarding this game.  I like it and that is good enough for me.

i thought a true sequel was involving either a continuing storyline from the previous episode or a totally new storyline altogether...the gta series exist in different timelines..each totally independent of each-other.. gta3 was existing in our current timeline....gatvc in the 80\'s..gatsa in the 90\'s...so each is a separate entity of itself...they are all separate stories...

?Christ what about Homeworld Cataclysm them ?

Its not a Sequel (we had Homeworld 2 :p) and its not just a mission disk(its not a simple stop gap as it was as long if not longer and more detailed that the first homeworld).

Back to Halo 2

I\'ve been gaming it up on live lately, my tag is Cuzimjesus

Right now I\'m a 10 overall with a rank around 80 in Head to Head.  For the most part I love it on there.  I just wish there was an easier way to get into group games without going thru your whole friends list.

So, to be a sequel it has to carry on the storyline. It does not have to have a number in it or even the same game engine, correct?
Thanks for clearing that up. I am just glad that GTA VC and SA are not sequels, otherwise they would be huge dissapointments like Halo 2, right?

Oh and RE:CV and RE:Rebirth both were terrific games.

^^^We are not making shit up arbitrarily. Rockstar themselves said they were not sequels. Capcom themselves said they were not sequels. There is a reason why the upcoming game for the Gamecube is Resident Evil 4 and not Resident Evil 13(or whatever the number is). The fact that Rockstar themselves has a GTA4 planned is enough to say that Vice City and San Andreas are not sequels. If anything they are GTA-3.2 and GTA-3.7

Since this IS a Halo 2 thread I guess I\'ll make another comment about the game. After having beaten the game I can now voice my main complaint.

The "ending"
[sp]I was all fired up for one last fight on earth and the game just ended with a bullshit cliffhanger. On top of that the rumors are that Bungie is planning on releasing the final level on XBox live and in the OXM on a demo disk. Not cool, MS/Bungie, not cool.[/sp]

I am sorry , but that is the most bullshit reason to justify the GTA series ever. I think it can be easily said that if a game uses the same engine and is part of the same franchise, it has the same standards to meet as a true sequel (I.E - Number in Title / Aka Halo 2). You are all saying that if the game is a spin-off (simply being a game that does not feature the same character and not a number in title) then it does not have the same set of standards to meet.
Bullshit.

^^^Dude, no one is trying to justify anything and no one said ANYTHING about games being held to different standards. You pulled all that out of your ass.

It just seems that you have a problem grasping the concept of a sequel and a spinoff. Your opinions on something do not make them fact. You may consider Vice City/San Andreas sequels to GTA 3 but that does not make it true.

A helpful guide for future reference.

GTA 3 = Sequel
GTA: Vice City = Spinoff
GTA: San Andreas = Spinoff
Resident Evil 2 = Sequel
Resident Evil 3 = Sequel
Resident Evil: Code Veronica = Spinoff
Resident Evil: Survivor = Spinoff
Resident Evil: Survivor 2 = Spinoff
Resident Evil 4 = Sequel
