Thank You Gameranx for highlighting DAYS GONE yet again. I commented even some days back and it truly deserves a sequel and a second chance from SONY. Some people might not like it but I will always be pro-Days Gone. It's really good!!! Thanks once again!
EXACTLY.. I don't like horror games, I don't like Zombie games(mostly). Horror games don't scare me, they don't do anything for me.. But running from a horde of FIVE HUNDRED zombies made me feel something that not only do horror games not do for me, but most games don't do it either! The tension was amazing! It felt soo good every single time! And the music they played while you were about to encounter them had me panicked! A lot of the critics just bashed it because it was a badass White Male biker dude being badass, and this was post normal time when being a Man somehow became "bad" to them, and having white characters as the leader characters and mostly white characters in the game is "problematic". Just like how a game set in Chinese Mythology in Black Myth Wukong got bashed by Game Rant for "not having enough diversity or inclusion" because there "aren't any female characters".. In a game about a MONKEY! And there is even a badass female boss too!
Sleeping Dogs is one of the best "GTA-type" games available. And fun fact for those who don't know (in case it wasn't mentioned in the video): It was originally going to be True Crime: Hong Kong. So if you are/were a fan of the True Crime games, Sleeping Dogs is their masterpiece.
Days Gone not getting a sequel is the biggest piece of bullshit the corps could have pulled on us. Yes, it had a rocky launch, but the fan base is enormous and we've been begging for a second game for years now....
I always come in and try to find the "we need more 'days gone'" posts - As someone who played the game on launch and as someone who also loves the game... I just like to know I'm not alone in hoping for a sequel even if it's very unlikely.
Yes, maybe more like the first game than the 2nd. But a new one would be amazing. Hell i would be happy with a modern remake of 1 with modern graphics.
Mercenaries needs a revival. Taking apart bases, calling down airstrikes, and ordering supply drops (tanks, rocket launchers, trucks, ammo etc) and taking down your bounties was just such a good gameplay loop. The other game that absolutely deserves a sequel is Timesplitters - it was hilarious, the minigames were epic, and it was so very good for couch co-op.
@JohnWhite-dy3hn good suggestion. I absolutely loved Just Cause 3, but didn't have the same reaction to the 4th entry - if they make another, I'd be excited to give it a try.
Mercenaries definitely needs a reboot. The 2nd game has it's flaws and bugs, but it's awesome. It's still the only game I've ever played where you can destroy pretty much every building you see. It was so fun to use the fuel air RPG to take down a skyscraper and watch it crumble.
@@JohnWhite-dy3hn Just Cause just isn't very good, sadly. The 3rd game is OK, but only OK. There's way too much of the map where you're just flying over it and there's absolutely nothing to do or find. And as soon as you've unlocked your wingsuit, etc. at the beginning of the game you can just go to the biggest enemy base and take it down immediately. There's very little challenge. And when you take down enemy bases, the enemy don't try to retaliate or take back some of their lost territory. So the gameplay loop just isn't anywhere near as fun because everything's so easy. Great traversal system with the grapple/wingsuit/parachute, but it's the definition of wasted potential. The 4th Just Cause is one of the worst games I've ever played. Instead of improving on the things that had potential in JC3 they made everything much worse. What's more fun than remote C4 charges you ask? How about balloons? Attaching balloons to stuff is fun, right? No. No it isn't. Just Cause is dead because of that stupid 4th game.
@blakedavis229 I actually felt the same way. 3 was phenomenal. I honestly don't remember what put me off of the 4th. But with three, the Mercenaries vibe was my jam. As well as the parachute wingsuit grapple combos .
We need sequels of days gone, spec ops the line, splinter cell, freedom fighters, mad max, Kane and lynch, vampyr, la noire, sleeping dogs and max Payne.
I didn't like that they made Bentley's girlfriend into a bad guy. It doesn't make sense. I liked Sly 3's ending because everyone got a happy ending. I did like Sly 4's gameplay & environments. They definitely had those down but the story I didn't like everything about it.
Freedom Fighters is such a slept on game man! I’ve said this for years it needs a reboot! Especially with the ending “They’ll be back with bigger guns and more soldiers”
Unreal Tournament was the game we Played before or after we got tired of playing Quake 3 Arena. My friends were computer nerds and had a room downstairs with 5 or 6 working gaming rigs. LAN parties every single night. God those were the best of times.
Legacy of Kain is my favorite game series, and I’ve been hoping for anything new from it for way too long. It straight up rewired my brain when I first played it in high school. Incredible score, story, voice acting, and visual design. If Amy Hennig returned in any capacity, that would be unreal, but I’ll take whatever I can get.
Thanks for mentioning Bully. Rockstar is sadly too busy swimming in the money that GTA online gives them to give us a sequel. It’s one of my personal all time favorite games. I wish they’d give us another
I might be alone but I want a Manhunt sequel. Never happen in today's climate, but imagine the tension of hunting or being hunted to a gory demise in 4k. Also those shadows and lighting with HDR would be really immersive.
Thank you guys for talking about “The Saboteur”. It recently released on steam and I’ve been playing it on my deck what a blast down memory lane it has been. I would do anything to have a remaster or a sequel to the first game!
Star Wars Republic Commando. One of the best Star Wars games ever and we never got a sequel or anything like it in the Star Wars universe. Now with the Clone Wars series they could really expand upon the clone army and their role and style.
2:58 Honestly *_Days Gone_* is criminally underrated in my opinion, i loved the motorcycle mechanic of the game because it genuinely feels like a second character in the game
Days Gone is amazing. The story, the world, everything is just great. In my Top5 of all time PS-Games. And I would be over the moon if ever a DG2 would happen...
Days Gone was GOTY for me just a little later than the year it released I really wish they would continue the story it was great and the gameplay mechanics and cool visual tricks to simulate massive hordes was top notch! I really want a sequel 😢
Red Faction Guerrilla really deserved a REAL sequel. It's a shame that Embracer had to shut down the studio that was working on the sequel, but I'm hoping that we'll get one, even if it takes years..
The Evil Within deserves a third entry that focuses on what happened to characters like Ruvik and Oda. Blend the grime and grit of the first game with the more surgical, arthouse aesthetic of the second. I really love this series and how it handles survival and action horror elements.
@@DillyBar_666, first one is best enjoyed when you've set your full attention and mind to it. So, if you don't feel like persisting, it's for the best not to go through with it immediately. Took a while for me, too, to get a grip and figure that game out properly. Second one is a lot more easy to get into from the get go. And the narrative is more cohesive in the sequel. Tho I still prefer the tone and batsh** insane moments from the original.
I've been asking for another Legend Of Dragoon game for about 20 years now. 1 amazing game that's still loved today, but it was a 1 and done for some reason
Days Gone is so awesome! It's among my favorites! Whoever was playing it for the video had me 🤦♀️. I get showing how you're getting chased by a hoard but the constant running into dead ends and obstacles was hard to watch. LOL
I thought the same thing. Like wtf isn't he jumping over the railing? Where is the setup with traps and explosive barrels? Hell, where were the actual HUGE hordes you have to deal with? And the game didn't end with a cliffhanger, it ended with a "the future is bright, but we gotta lot of work to do to get there" type of ending.
@@danbooke2001 ehmmm, the big reveal that the doctor really is an intelligent zombie, leading to a new zombie evolution is not a cliffhanger????????????????????????? ooooooookkk
@@shrek_yourself Guardians game is superb written, and its also very beautiful, the graphics, color and artistic design is unbelievable. It strangely runs very well on my below mid PC, its probably the best looking game I ever played, at least for how it looks on my computer, I beat Cyberpunk, but on my specs, Cyberpunk is not that great looking... That said, to me, Spiderman PS4 is still the better game. Spiderman is probably my favorite PS4 game in all honestly, that or Ghost of Tsushima, its very fun. Guardians combat was very mid, not very entertaining, and to me, I was reminded of better games, like Mass Effect. I liked Guardians because it was we have Mass effect at hope type of game, and its good, but with SPiderman, to me, that genre of game reached its final form there, I wasnt thinking of better games, I think of Spiderman now when I play games with Arham combat. But yes, please, we need Guardians sequel, that was great!
Its is a great game but the characters never shut the hell up in the dozen hour playthrough. A sequel with more confidence would not be afraid to lack dialogue every second so kids would not avert their eyes to the Family Guy/Subway Surfers playing on their second screen.
@@ehcorthey do talk a lot but that's literally the characters they are. I can get you might not like it but it amazed me that I virtually never heard a repeated line in my whole playthrough. The amount of dialogue they must have recorded is insane. I have a soft spot for the Wolverine game, and the various Spiderman games have always been good but this is my favorite Marvel game.
IIRC, one of the biggest problems Burnout had was that modern car manufacturers HATE the idea of their vehicles looking anything less than perfect, so it probably stifled a lot of the dev team's creativity, as they'd have to make generic vehicles. We all want to see the sort of devastation a Porsche or Mercedes or Tesla could do from the safety of the other side of a computer monitor, but car companies poo poo'd that notion.
Same here, but I would give them a LOT of 💩 for releasing a buggy unfinished game if it were to be released in the same state as days gone 1. That's why I don't like their whole "people should have bought it full price" reasoning; at least the developers of cyberpunk had the decency to admit that it shouldn't have been released the way it did but nope, these devs blame the customers...
Hey Gameranx team - great vid! Unreal being the top one is a no-brainer. But that got me thinking and going down the nostalgia isle and I have a suggestion for your next video: top games that deserve a remake. It would be similar to what you presented here, but for those I wouldn't suggest a sequel necessarily, but just a remake for visuals and gameplay (improve the clunky old, but leave the good parts as they were) Games I would include: - Gothic - it's probably coming out soon anyway - Zanzarah - for pokemon fans that want something like that, could do a marketing stunt like Palworld - Severance: Blade of Darkness - a game somewhere between Dark souls and Gothic that could appeal to both audiences - Sid Meier's Pirates! - who needs skull and bones when you can dance in a ballroom to seduce a rich governor's daughter? I'm sure there are many more games with unique gameplay that deserve a remake the same as Tomb Raider or System Shock got. Thanks!
YES! For the love of everything, please bring back Unreal Tournament. That was my favorite series of all times ever, for the first half of my life until the series died.
OMG, thank you for reminding me the name of this game!! I knew I played this game as a kid but couldn't remember the name and wanted to watch some playthrough because nostalgia.. 😅😅😅
holy shit! 8MILLLION SUBSCRIBERS??? I am so happy for you guys! I was following you when you had half a million! And I wished you had more back then, and years after here you are! ❤❤❤

These are just a few examples of games/franchises that I would like to see more of. (edit) I'll add games as I remember them
@richdelaney9500 👍 NONE of these games have current-gen releases they're all last-gen or seventh-generation. That's wild to think about. * Chorvs and Borderlands have current-gen releases but the rest don't
Great choices! I remember loving playing Brütal Legend. I even brought it with me to NY, to demo it to my brother-in-law ... in the 90s ... on a PS3 ... Wow. And Enslaved: Odyssey to the West ... such a cool game!
Oh man. Red Faction: Guerilla was wonderful. They also had a game mode where you racked up points demolishing as much as possible on a time limit. Oh, and the multiplayer modes were great, too! They let you set up servers with your own preferences. I remember setting up the smallest map - like a small city block of 3-story houses, and limiting the equipment to only sledgehammers + those backpacks that made you able to charge through walls/rocket up/down through ceilings/floors, and so on. And then me and my friends went to town. Quite often we ended up destroying everything, so we were basically running around on the ground with nothing left of the buildings. Those were the days!
I know, right? But to be honest, i can't decide if i like the original or Catalyst better - they both have their strong points. Love the franchise though.
I literally only came in to the comments to see if someone mentioned KOA, I mean it's still got a massive cult following to this day and definitely deserves a sequel more compared to some of the other games mentioned in this list
i cant tell you how unbelievably happy i am that Unreal is #1 on this list. Many childhood hours were spent online fragging many unsuspecting victims! what a great surprising nod to a great game. love yall for this one
One of my favorite underrated games was Midway's hidden gem: Stranglehold. The story, Max Payne-like gameplay (with incredible destruction effects) were top-notch at the time of release. I would love to see someone collaborate with John Woo and Chun Yao Fat again
We're getting Soul Reaver remakes, a kickstarter for a prequel comic of Raziel, collectible statues, a soundtrack and even a Soul Reaver replica. Legacy of Kain is FINALLY coming back!
Max Payne , Days Gone , Mercenaries , Army Of Two ( No One Even Remember ) , Proto Type ( It Was A Shame That It Didnt Continue ) , Titan Fall , Half Life ( again No one talk about it ) , Red Faction It was sooooo Good
Yes, I came here specifically for Prey, glad that I'm not the only one thinking it deserves a second chance. Such an underrated gem. I just booted it up recently for a New Game+ playthrough and to finally play Mooncrash too.
How could you not put "The Legend of Dragoon" on this list?!?! That's one of the best JRPGs. You could even do a prequel or sequel with the game too. And I love how your interaction with the combat will determine how much or if you do damage. Something I've yet to see repeated in a turn based game.
You got 2 of my 3 biggest sequel wishes, The Saboteur and No One Lives Forever. My other one is a Jedi Academy sequel. We need more Kyle Katarn and Jaden Korr.
THANK YOU for including freedom fighters. I adore that game I loved it as a kid. I want a new 1 so bad. I tried playing it again but it wasnt hitting the same. Buttons were terrible too lol. But man I would love a new 1. Also Unreal tournament 2. Omg that game. I love that game so much. So many great memories being anubus! Def need an Unreal remake.
Days Gone is one of the best action shooters I’ve ever played. I genuinely don’t understand why it was treated as a failure. It sold more units than all of Bend Studio's previous games combined. I think at some point devs and studios need to stop listening to critics and start paying attention to what the fans want. Ya know…. Those of us who are actually paying for the experience.
@@YOUNGJBR , same. I put in 11 hours and put it down. A lot of mechanics are being recycled between games. I can tolerate that if the world/story is unique and interesting enough, but this didn't do it for me. Glad others enjoyed it, though.
i don't even like the whole zombie thing but days gone gripped me so hard after the first couple of hours. i feel like they botched the earlygame pacing tho, it really takes time before it opens up.
Just finished Sleeping Dogs last week. I bought it 5 years ago, but never played it. Then, I decided to play it and BOY! I am now trying to get all achievements
Sleeping Dogs DEFINITELY deserves a sequel. I never expected to like (much less, LOVE) this game as much as I do. The DLCs are a riot. It would be a crying shame not to make a sequel. I play this game once a year - it’s always fun. There are so many things to do and it never takes itself seriously. Good job on adding this to the list!
A game that deserves a comeback is Vigilante 8. It was an amazing car shooter game, one of the best sort of battle royale with each car having a special weapon. That was hella fun to play as a kid!
No One Lives Forever staring Katie Archer can never happen. The creator wanted to buy the rights back. But first, He wanted to know who he had to pay. But everyone he contacted replied with the gut crushing response. Nobody knows who owns the rights to the game, and that means everyone is too scared to make a sequel. Thanks to the studio getting bought and sold multiple times and mergers and etc.. caused this situation. Now nobody knows what to do despite multiple people who worked on the original game having come forward wanting to make it happen and getting that soul crushing response.
Great videos, I usually watch your video before bed and IMO, You should change your transitions, watching late at night before bed in the dark, Got blinded by the transition 19 times.
I really liked Sleepdogs as well. As someone who was born in hong kong, these swearing in the game makes me feel familiar and warm. Actually, due to search for sleeping dogs similar games, I know the existance of yakuza games.
One I used to play forever ago was Warzone 2100. There's still an active community and the has been open sourced. But the gameplay was basically an RTS where you design your own tanks/jets. Pick a body, a move type (tracks wheels, hover, etc), and a gun. There were great synergies between things like radars/jammers and artillery. There was massive explosions and lasers and cannons. It was a ton of fun but has been utterly forgotten. Even the campaign was a fairly novel one in a post apocalyptic setting.
I feel Battlefield Hardline is another game that deserves a second chance, the campaign mode was amazing, just a shame people wanted another multiplayer game from them.
I've been so immersed in the Deus Ex Machina series that I'm still having a hard time understanding how the 2nd game didn't sell well. The fact it left off on a cliff hanger ending is just salt on a gaping wound.
The fact that Bully and Sleeping dogs haven't had a sequel is mental. Sleeping Dogs is so underrated. The story, the Batman style combat, the PARKOUR!! and the so good but under appreciated and underused Hong Kong setting is amazing. Square Enix is sitting on a gold mine if they make a sequel. All they need is another great and touching story and better driving mechanics and Sleeping Dogs 2 will be such a hit. Also IGI 2 never got the sequel that it actually deserved. And I will never forget Burnout Paradise intoducing me to Guns N' Roses. Everytime I hear paradise city I can just picture me driving in the city taking down cars one after another.
I'm so glad you mentioned the Legacy of Kain series. They're FREAKING AWESOME !! There was Nosgoth that took place in the same "universe" but, sadly, the game has been closed (amazing game, by the way). I REALLY (!!!) hope that we'll see more of it in the future ! You guys are great !!
-Sunset Overdrive - JADE EMPIRE - Sengoku Basara I play only live service games now but if any of those 3 came out with a sequel I would be there DAY ONE.
Thank You Gameranx for highlighting DAYS GONE yet again. I commented even some days back and it truly deserves a sequel and a second chance from SONY. Some people might not like it but I will always be pro-Days Gone. It's really good!!! Thanks once again!
@excess6704 no it won't same with 1886
For me after iron Mike it was such a downfall don't even want to reinstall it.

@@Poppa_Capinyoaz you just don't like the days gone gas prices 😂 jk
@@marcohoehener463the story? 😂
Days Gone was GOTY for me just a little later than the year it released I really wish they would continue the story it was great and the gameplay mechanics and cool visual tricks to simulate massive hordes was top notch! I really want a sequel 😢
Red Faction Guerrilla really deserved a REAL sequel. It's a shame that Embracer had to shut down the studio that was working on the sequel, but I'm hoping that we'll get one, even if it takes years..
Armageddon was a real sequel but sold like shit
@@Dpor-uv4ro Armageddon was barely a sequel. And also it wasn't good.
The Evil Within deserves a third entry that focuses on what happened to characters like Ruvik and Oda. Blend the grime and grit of the first game with the more surgical, arthouse aesthetic of the second. I really love this series and how it handles survival and action horror elements.
Let’s keep hoping!
I just tried to play the first one again and couldn’t stay interested the second one looks cool and I own it but I’m gonna have to try it again later
@@PsychoRavager Yes, Sir
@@DillyBar_666, first one is best enjoyed when you've set your full attention and mind to it. So, if you don't feel like persisting, it's for the best not to go through with it immediately. Took a while for me, too, to get a grip and figure that game out properly. Second one is a lot more easy to get into from the get go. And the narrative is more cohesive in the sequel. Tho I still prefer the tone and batsh** insane moments from the original.
Yes but tango gamework is closed now
I've been asking for another Legend Of Dragoon game for about 20 years now. 1 amazing game that's still loved today, but it was a 1 and done for some reason
Days Gone is so awesome! It's among my favorites! Whoever was playing it for the video had me 🤦♀️. I get showing how you're getting chased by a hoard but the constant running into dead ends and obstacles was hard to watch. LOL
I thought the same thing. Like wtf isn't he jumping over the railing? Where is the setup with traps and explosive barrels? Hell, where were the actual HUGE hordes you have to deal with? And the game didn't end with a cliffhanger, it ended with a "the future is bright, but we gotta lot of work to do to get there" type of ending.
@@danbooke2001 ehmmm, the big reveal that the doctor really is an intelligent zombie, leading to a new zombie evolution is not a cliffhanger????????????????????????? ooooooookkk
Gardians of the galaxy deserves a sequel it's one of the best narrative games in the last few years...
@@shrek_yourself Guardians game is superb written, and its also very beautiful, the graphics, color and artistic design is unbelievable. It strangely runs very well on my below mid PC, its probably the best looking game I ever played, at least for how it looks on my computer, I beat Cyberpunk, but on my specs, Cyberpunk is not that great looking...
That said, to me, Spiderman PS4 is still the better game. Spiderman is probably my favorite PS4 game in all honestly, that or Ghost of Tsushima, its very fun. Guardians combat was very mid, not very entertaining, and to me, I was reminded of better games, like Mass Effect. I liked Guardians because it was we have Mass effect at hope type of game, and its good, but with SPiderman, to me, that genre of game reached its final form there, I wasnt thinking of better games, I think of Spiderman now when I play games with Arham combat.
But yes, please, we need Guardians sequel, that was great!
It blew my mind with just how good it was
Its is a great game but the characters never shut the hell up in the dozen hour playthrough. A sequel with more confidence would not be afraid to lack dialogue every second so kids would not avert their eyes to the Family Guy/Subway Surfers playing on their second screen.
@@ehcorthey do talk a lot but that's literally the characters they are. I can get you might not like it but it amazed me that I virtually never heard a repeated line in my whole playthrough. The amount of dialogue they must have recorded is insane. I have a soft spot for the Wolverine game, and the various Spiderman games have always been good but this is my favorite Marvel game.
Guardians was such a hidden gem to me. I never had so much fun with the characters and story as much as I did playing it. I'd love a second game
The old SOCOM games were elite
IIRC, one of the biggest problems Burnout had was that modern car manufacturers HATE the idea of their vehicles looking anything less than perfect, so it probably stifled a lot of the dev team's creativity, as they'd have to make generic vehicles. We all want to see the sort of devastation a Porsche or Mercedes or Tesla could do from the safety of the other side of a computer monitor, but car companies poo poo'd that notion.
Same reason why GTA has always had generic cars. Some more close to their real life counterparts than others but still
Nfs most wanted 2012 and hot pursuit 2010 are kinda like burnout games with real cars
Syphon Filter
Man, I loved the first syphon filter! I always think about that game and wonder why there isn't a new updated version
Yes. There’s a franchise I _rarely_ here about anymore
Where are you logan?......
Hnnnnnnng
Hell yes ❤
You need to add Split Second, Black, and zombies at my neighbors! I would love those ones!
Days gone would be bought day 1 by me if a sequel is ever released. Lots of love and soul in that game
Same here
Same here, but I would give them a LOT of 💩 for releasing a buggy unfinished game if it were to be released in the same state as days gone 1.
That's why I don't like their whole "people should have bought it full price" reasoning; at least the developers of cyberpunk had the decency to admit that it shouldn't have been released the way it did but nope, these devs blame the customers...
I'm currently playing Days gone for the second time and is a great game. It deserves more love.
Hey Gameranx team - great vid! Unreal being the top one is a no-brainer.
But that got me thinking and going down the nostalgia isle and I have a suggestion for your next video: top games that deserve a remake.
It would be similar to what you presented here, but for those I wouldn't suggest a sequel necessarily, but just a remake for visuals and gameplay (improve the clunky old, but leave the good parts as they were)
Games I would include:
- Gothic - it's probably coming out soon anyway
- Zanzarah - for pokemon fans that want something like that, could do a marketing stunt like Palworld
- Severance: Blade of Darkness - a game somewhere between Dark souls and Gothic that could appeal to both audiences
- Sid Meier's Pirates! - who needs skull and bones when you can dance in a ballroom to seduce a rich governor's daughter?
I'm sure there are many more games with unique gameplay that deserve a remake the same as Tomb Raider or System Shock got.
Thanks!
I loved Days Gone, replaying it again at the mo.
I gave Days Gone a “Second Chance” and I’m so glad I did. SUCH an incredible story.
Same here. I didn't get far and ignored it for 4 years. Played it again because I had no other games to play and I fell in love with it
@@kobaltblue9081 Emotionally its a roller coaster ride. Very much like RDR2.
I'm playing it now because it's free on psplus. It's really good..I'm at crater lake now
@@mikenolin8747 O is it? Thanks for the heads up!
What? The story was the worst part of the game lol. @mikenolin8747
YES! For the love of everything, please bring back Unreal Tournament. That was my favorite series of all times ever, for the first half of my life until the series died.
I keep saying: The Darkness 1 and 2 need to either come to modern consoles without needing to be part of a subscription or a remaster
Darkness 1 & 2 are backwards compatible on Xbox
Just finished the first one and am currently playing the second one. Love these games.
The Darkness as a PSVR2 game
The game everyone has forgotten and need to be talk about is Total Overdose, one of the best game ever made.
Holy shit, it's been YEARS since I've heard anyone talk about this masterpiece. Absolutely agree!
Sombrero steal😋
El Toro
Not me...I remember playing it...whoo, ages ago..Good shout out.
OMG, thank you for reminding me the name of this game!! I knew I played this game as a kid but couldn't remember the name and wanted to watch some playthrough because nostalgia.. 😅😅😅
Bushido Blade 2 needs a spiritual successor and I'll die on that hill.
Infamous. Please. Just a remaster wouldn’t hurt 😢
holy shit! 8MILLLION SUBSCRIBERS??? I am so happy for you guys! I was following you when you had half a million! And I wished you had more back then, and years after here you are! ❤❤❤
Add Parasite Eve to the list, such an underrated game. True clasic
Did you purchase RoboCop: Rogue City?
Ghost Recon, Battlefield (Bad Company), Ace Combat, Crysis, Syndicate, Just Cause, Killzone, Resistance, Homefront, Singularity, Dark Sector, F.E.A.R, Turok, Max Payne, Lost Planet, Vanquish, Medal of Honor, Batman, Borderlands, Bulletstorm, Crackdown, The Darkness, Wolfenstein, Splinter Cell, Binary Domain, Kane & Lynch, Frontlines Fuel of War, Chorvs, Anthem, Split/Second, Blur, Need for Speed (Shift), Mass Effect, Chronicles of Riddick, Dead to Rights, Ninja Gaiden, Dishonored, Generation Zero, Gravity Rush, The Surge, Rage, Mirrors Edge, inFamous, Uncharted, Bioshock... These are just a few examples of games/franchises that I would like to see more of.
(edit) I'll add games as I remember them
Infamous and Lost planet stand out to me the most. I'd love sequels in these worlds
I like yout style, man!!
@richdelaney9500 👍 NONE of these games have current-gen releases they're all last-gen or seventh-generation. That's wild to think about.
* Chorvs and Borderlands have current-gen releases but the rest don't
@@salmonchurro At least we should be getting a Max Payne remaster coming in the next couple of years!!
@@richdelaney9500 🔥
The Order 1886!! Please Sony or whoever owns the rights to the game.
We need a great werewolf/vampire game. Plus the setting was fantastic.
I agree. But $ony has been absolute trash for years now, unfortunately.
Great choices!
I remember loving playing Brütal Legend. I even brought it with me to NY, to demo it to my brother-in-law ... in the 90s ... on a PS3 ... Wow.
And Enslaved: Odyssey to the West ... such a cool game!
I agree that Criterion should make a new Burnout game instead of destroying what is left of Need For Speed
4:00
*Shows us the worst possible running sequence he could find for Days Gone*
😂
😂
Probably IGN gameplay
😂
💀
Oh man. Red Faction: Guerilla was wonderful. They also had a game mode where you racked up points demolishing as much as possible on a time limit.
Oh, and the multiplayer modes were great, too! They let you set up servers with your own preferences. I remember setting up the smallest map - like a small city block of 3-story houses, and limiting the equipment to only sledgehammers + those backpacks that made you able to charge through walls/rocket up/down through ceilings/floors, and so on. And then me and my friends went to town. Quite often we ended up destroying everything, so we were basically running around on the ground with nothing left of the buildings. Those were the days!
Mirror's Edge Catalyst is criminally underrated. The Mirror's Edge franchise is criminally underrated.
I know, right? But to be honest, i can't decide if i like the original or Catalyst better - they both have their strong points. Love the franchise though.
Kingdoms of Amalur should've been on this list, it was Amazing IMO
I literally only came in to the comments to see if someone mentioned KOA, I mean it's still got a massive cult following to this day and definitely deserves a sequel more compared to some of the other games mentioned in this list
Amalur sounds dumb though
i cant tell you how unbelievably happy i am that Unreal is #1 on this list. Many childhood hours were spent online fragging many unsuspecting victims! what a great surprising nod to a great game. love yall for this one
Army men: Sarge's heros should get a sequel, playing as little green army men fighting battles in a giant bathtub or kitchen sink was so much fun lol
Prototype needs a sequel or a remake. A new mod came out that lets you play the old ones on steam properly, haven’t had this much fun in a long time
One of my favorite underrated games was Midway's hidden gem: Stranglehold. The story, Max Payne-like gameplay (with incredible destruction effects) were top-notch at the time of release. I would love to see someone collaborate with John Woo and Chun Yao Fat again
We're getting Soul Reaver remakes, a kickstarter for a prequel comic of Raziel, collectible statues, a soundtrack and even a Soul Reaver replica. Legacy of Kain is FINALLY coming back!
Quantum Break getting a sequel would be awesome, that's one of my all time favorite games.
And a ps4 port. Never played but I'm a huge remedy fan.
Honestly after Fallout: New Vegas, every Fallout after lost what I think made the series so great
Max Payne , Days Gone , Mercenaries , Army Of Two ( No One Even Remember ) , Proto Type ( It Was A Shame That It Didnt Continue ) , Titan Fall , Half Life ( again No one talk about it ) , Red Faction It was sooooo Good
...no one talks about a half life sequel?
@@Ezdine_G8261 I dont see anyone talk about it i mean its a game that has huge impact on action FPS ;|
Army of two was great. Me and my mrs used to pay that. Max Payne needs a comeback. That 3rd game was awesome.
@@rangersnut yeah the 3dr one was the best for game play but the i like the first and second story much more
@arashzombi8705 I really can't pick I like them all.
Yes, I came here specifically for Prey, glad that I'm not the only one thinking it deserves a second chance. Such an underrated gem. I just booted it up recently for a New Game+ playthrough and to finally play Mooncrash too.
Hope you enjoy Mooncrash! I find it interesting that it's been so divisive. I REALLY loved Mooncrash!
How could you not put "The Legend of Dragoon" on this list?!?! That's one of the best JRPGs. You could even do a prequel or sequel with the game too. And I love how your interaction with the combat will determine how much or if you do damage. Something I've yet to see repeated in a turn based game.
Titanfall 2 and Prey are most underrated games
Facts
You got 2 of my 3 biggest sequel wishes, The Saboteur and No One Lives Forever. My other one is a Jedi Academy sequel. We need more Kyle Katarn and Jaden Korr.
Enslaved is an excellent game. It had a weird ending, but it's definitely underrated and totally deserving of at least a remaster.
There was a new Red Faction game in development until a few months ago, when Embracer suddenly cancelled it and laid off the developers.
THANK YOU for including freedom fighters. I adore that game I loved it as a kid. I want a new 1 so bad. I tried playing it again but it wasnt hitting the same. Buttons were terrible too lol. But man I would love a new 1.
Also Unreal tournament 2. Omg that game. I love that game so much. So many great memories being anubus! Def need an Unreal remake.
Seven the Days Long Gone needs another chance. Underrated and forgotten doesn't even begin to describe it.
Days Gone is one of the best action shooters I’ve ever played. I genuinely don’t understand why it was treated as a failure. It sold more units than all of Bend Studio's previous games combined. I think at some point devs and studios need to stop listening to critics and start paying attention to what the fans want. Ya know…. Those of us who are actually paying for the experience.
It scored a 9 out of 10 everywhere,what are you talking about
Well Sony decided it was a failure. I tried playing it but I couldn’t get into it it’s boring
@@YOUNGJBR , same. I put in 11 hours and put it down. A lot of mechanics are being recycled between games. I can tolerate that if the world/story is unique and interesting enough, but this didn't do it for me. Glad others enjoyed it, though.
@@oliverwilliam6931 many publications slammed it for being mediocre white guy protag
i don't even like the whole zombie thing but days gone gripped me so hard after the first couple of hours. i feel like they botched the earlygame pacing tho, it really takes time before it opens up.
Great list! Miss most of these games
Just finished Sleeping Dogs last week. I bought it 5 years ago, but never played it. Then, I decided to play it and BOY! I am now trying to get all achievements
That game should receive more love by developers
Burnout also made me think of Flatout. The minigames like longjump, high jump, bowling, darts with the ragdoll driver physics were so unique
Flatout had Flatout 4, Wreckfest is a spiritual successor and much better
@@GHow1998Wasn't Wreckfest a spiritual sequel to Destruction Derby
@Sparkykelly1 could be both, but Bugbear themselves referred to it as a spiritual successor to Flatout
Sleeping Dogs DEFINITELY deserves a sequel. I never expected to like (much less, LOVE) this game as much as I do. The DLCs are a riot. It would be a crying shame not to make a sequel. I play this game once a year - it’s always fun. There are so many things to do and it never takes itself seriously. Good job on adding this to the list!
The Saboteur, most underrated game ever.
Days Gone will always hold a special place in my heart, such a great game, finished it twice, PS4 and PC
Same. It was such a good port; shit runs smooth as hell on PC.
Absolutely love The Saboteur, replay it every few years. Turning Paris back into colour each time you liberate an area was such fun, RIP Pandemic.
A game that deserves a comeback is Vigilante 8. It was an amazing car shooter game, one of the best sort of battle royale with each car having a special weapon. That was hella fun to play as a kid!
Yep, right up there with Twisted Metal, I probably even preferred vigilante 8
No One Lives Forever staring Katie Archer can never happen. The creator wanted to buy the rights back. But first, He wanted to know who he had to pay. But everyone he contacted replied with the gut crushing response. Nobody knows who owns the rights to the game, and that means everyone is too scared to make a sequel. Thanks to the studio getting bought and sold multiple times and mergers and etc.. caused this situation. Now nobody knows what to do despite multiple people who worked on the original game having come forward wanting to make it happen and getting that soul crushing response.
Just make the game and you will find out who owns the rights real quick lol
It's the same reason GOG can't sell the original two games :(
@@seanbroccoli2698This.
The original Prey would also be awesome too, I still wish Prey 2 could’ve been finished, it looked cool af
The Suffering would be a good one to remake or have a sequel too
I've been playing days gone and it truly is incredible. I'm about 41 hours in and I don't want it to end.
ive beat it like 3 times over the yrs its one of my fav games
Great videos, I usually watch your video before bed and IMO, You should change your transitions, watching late at night before bed in the dark, Got blinded by the transition 19 times.
The Saboteur is such an underrated game! One of my favorites growing up, recently bought it on steam and played through it 100% once again.
Yep loved that game
I'm playing it on deck for the first time; very good atmosphere, very bad acting/dialogue 😂
Man i loved sleeping dogs! It always reminded me of the Jackie Chan movies
I really liked Sleepdogs as well. As someone who was born in hong kong, these swearing in the game makes me feel familiar and warm.
Actually, due to search for sleeping dogs similar games, I know the existance of yakuza games.
The graphics are still holding up well to this day and the voice acting is so good, with very satisfying combat to boot.
@@conget Yakuza is also great I love both the older and newer style of yakuza games
@@Arcanant but i would still take a remake and a sequel
Well the ending was pretty solid. Adding any more to the story will ruin the first game.

Dishonored needs to make a comeback they are two of my favorite games of all time.
No timesplitters? One of the first create your own multi player map online vs, with a hilarious story and characters?
One I used to play forever ago was Warzone 2100. There's still an active community and the has been open sourced. But the gameplay was basically an RTS where you design your own tanks/jets. Pick a body, a move type (tracks wheels, hover, etc), and a gun. There were great synergies between things like radars/jammers and artillery. There was massive explosions and lasers and cannons. It was a ton of fun but has been utterly forgotten. Even the campaign was a fairly novel one in a post apocalyptic setting.
I feel Battlefield Hardline is another game that deserves a second chance, the campaign mode was amazing, just a shame people wanted another multiplayer game from them.
I've been so immersed in the Deus Ex Machina series that I'm still having a hard time understanding how the 2nd game didn't sell well. The fact it left off on a cliff hanger ending is just salt on a gaping wound.
Yep, should have been a third one to complete a trilogy. Almost criminal not to have done that.
Alot of these games I would LOVEEEEEEE to see them come back or be remastered thank you gameranx for this video brought back alot of memories
Dishonored, Deus Ex, Titanfall? Yes, please! And The Darkness!
How could there be another Dishonored after DotO?
@@Spootington I understand, but how can you not want more ;)
The fact that Bully and Sleeping dogs haven't had a sequel is mental. Sleeping Dogs is so underrated. The story, the Batman style combat, the PARKOUR!! and the so good but under appreciated and underused Hong Kong setting is amazing. Square Enix is sitting on a gold mine if they make a sequel. All they need is another great and touching story and better driving mechanics and Sleeping Dogs 2 will be such a hit.
Also IGI 2 never got the sequel that it actually deserved.
And I will never forget Burnout Paradise intoducing me to Guns N' Roses. Everytime I hear paradise city I can just picture me driving in the city taking down cars one after another.
Sleeping Dogs took over where GTA left off for me. I really wish they'd bring it back.
I'm so glad you mentioned the Legacy of Kain series. They're FREAKING AWESOME !! There was Nosgoth that took place in the same "universe" but, sadly, the game has been closed (amazing game, by the way).
I REALLY (!!!) hope that we'll see more of it in the future ! You guys are great !!
madmax really need a sequel
-Sunset Overdrive
- JADE EMPIRE
- Sengoku Basara
I play only live service games now but if any of those 3 came out with a sequel I would be there DAY ONE.
Sengoku Basara has tons of stuff but it’s all JP only
