What gaming franchises have developers just abandoned for no apparent reason? What games would make a great comeback with new sequels?
Powerstone - Capcom seems to have abandoned this altogether, despite the fact that it would work really well on the current consoles. Powerstone III would also be great as an online game, with upto 8 players simultaniously!
Parasite Eve - A great franchise, and Parasite Eve II is a sure Resident Evil beater - So why has Square abandoned it? Surely they could expand on the whole concept and come up with a new storyline...
Perhaps have a story where some cop get's dragged into the whole Mitochondria thing, and has to enlist the help of Aya Brea to defeat a new threat...
Streets Of Rage - Why have they never done a SOR4? I'm sure after doing Shenmue, they could come up with a similar SOR game (And no, Spikeout Battle Street is not a worthy substitute - It's just not the same unless it's SOR)
Gunbird - No Gunbird III? Why ever not? THe first two were such great Shumps, so why not a new instalment?
I'm sure there are many other franchises which could benefit from being brought into the 21st century in much the same way as games like OutRun have recently been, or have further much-needed sequels...
