welcome to the best of WatchMojo the
series that reef features some of our
biggest and best videos that you may
have missed with the annual follow ups
to Assassin’s Creed and Call of Duty
you’d think some of these games would
have a sequel by now welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
amazing video games that never got a
sequel for this list we’re taking a look
at video games that received critical
acclaim from both critics and gamers but
for whatever reason a follow up was
never released or announced keep in mind
that we’re only considering games where
a significant amount of time has passed
so any game released after about all
2011 won’t be included as it’s still a
little too early to tell if those games
will get a sequel we’re also omitting
Psychonauts as it already has a sequel
on horizon
sweet Rasputin can you hear me Sasha
where am I number 10 world of boom
losing its way to the start of our
countdown is world of goop a breakout we
wear game that has since been ported to
multiple gaming platforms including PC
and iOS the game has a simple premise
the players goal is that they must
create an abundance of several different
structures and shapes out of new can
navigate a variety of environments
simple doesn’t translate into stale
however as this puzzler proved to be
extremely addictive for those who played
it along with winning multiple game of
the Year awards it should be stated that
one of these awards was game spots best
game that no one played which might help
explain why we haven’t heard anything
from this hidden gem since
number nine Vanquish
a change of pace for Resident Evil
creator and horror aficionado Shinji
Mikami his epic futuristic shooter
vanquish was a bombastic display of
eye-popping action and exhilarating
visuals
the game was just packed to the brim
with style combining all the right
elements from various games and movies
in the sci-fi genre just looking at the
game stunning presentation and how it
was able to run smoothly with all the
on-screen chaos earns it a gold star but
then there’s the gameplay boy the
gameplay fast-paced nature of the game
provides a sensational rush as you blast
through the environments and bash your
enemies to bits and bonus points for
being able to slow things down at the
click of a button matrix style number 8
Alan Wake I’ve always had a vivid
imagination but this dream unsettled me
it was wild and dark and weird even by
my standards highly praised for its
intriguing storyline tense atmosphere
and smart gameplay Alan Wake seemed to
nail every aspect of its design putting
the management of your light source
front and center as the main gameplay
mechanic the game did a good job of
conveying a genuine fear of the dark you
basically had no choice but to be Cavan
had gone dark all the lights were out so
for a game to be such a hit with the
community it not having any kind of
sequel is as big of a mystery as the
narrative in the actual game hopefully
the game’s creators at remedy studios
wake up and get started on the next
chapter I didn’t want to go outside cops
had to be looking for me number 7
eternal darkness sanity’s Requiem
why stop at Alan Wake keep the horror
resurgent strong with a follow-up to
this cult classic scare fest for the
Nintendo GameCube long before amnesia
was screwing with the minds of gamers
eternal darkness had the sanity meter
which provided a unique spin – it’s
already unsettling gameplay
if said meter were to drop to low
strange anomalies begin to occur
including the infamous blue screen
glitch causing gamers to panic thinking
that their console was on the fritz for
years there have been hints at a sequel
but any chance of seeing one these days
seems unlikely with developers Silicon
Knights embroiled in two separate
scandals for two human and x-men destiny
and with a spiritual successor by former
director dennis Dayak unable to get
kickstarter funding number 6 Skies of
Arcadia
[Music]
controlling a group of Sky Pirates as
they fight back against the Billina
Stalin Empire this epic fantasy
adventure was a standout RPG for the
Sega Dreamcast and received the critical
acclaim to prove it
unfortunately we continued the trend of
positive reception not meaning squat
when it comes to making more games it’s
a shame too as Skies of Arcadia had
elements not seen in any other RPG at
the time including its vibrant and
colorful detailed visuals along with
fully integrated ship combat systems
another standout was its lively and
upbeat cast of characters a much
appreciated change of pace for a genre
that’s usually featured grim tortured
protagonists
no offense cloud but you’re totally emo
oh yeah my own monster number 5 Star
Wars Republic Commando
you are a commander despite what the
title and film depictions of clone
troopers would have you expect this game
was not your conventional mindless FPS
Republic Commando was instead a tactical
shooter where a player joins a squad of
4 commandos and must think strategically
to make it through every blistering
firefight he was honestly a nice change
of pace from all the predominantly
action focused entries in the universe
of Star Wars video games placing you
into the shoes of a group of characters
that we hadn’t seen before hopefully we
don’t have to venture into a galaxy far
far away to see another game like this
number four grim fandago hey this list
is really starting to bum us out another
injustice in the gaming world is the
lack of appreciation for the offbeat and
eccentric adventure game from industry
legend Tim Schafer let us rephrase this
the game was appreciated by critics who
adored it sense of humor imaginative
storyline and engaging scenarios
unfortunately reviews only go so far as
the product needs to make some moolah as
well and Grim Fandango completely bombed
from a commercial standpoint yes meal
it’s full of doubling tickets this could
get a hundred souls on the number-9
train making matters worse it’s poor
sales played into developer LucasArts as
decisions to stop making adventure games
altogether
ouch well at least we got that
remastered edition last year so that
could be an effort to hold us over while
they work on a sequel right there’s some
customs officials down below sir they
want to search the ship no skeletons in
our closet number three bully
ah yes so you must be Hopkins providing
a unique spin on the open world genre
that was popularized by their grant f
Donnell franchise Rockstar shifted their
attention from cops and robbers to
schoolyards and studying here the player
controls Jimmy Hopkins who after being
forced into a harsh private school
decides to form alliances with other
students to bring down a group of
bullies who terrorize every clique in
the Academy you just arrived at the
toughest school in the country and I’m
offering to be your friend trust me in a
place like this you’re gonna need
friends the most remarkable achievement
of the game on top of it’s addictive
sandbox environment was that it made
attending class enjoyable as being
successful in your courses rewarded you
with valuable upgrades bully ultimately
raked in a bunch of awards and
nominations but it never really soared
to the epic heights of the other after
mentioned rockstar sandbox franchise
what’s going on number two Conker’s Bad
Fur Day
rayar air pumped out hit after hit for
the Nintendo 64 and it’s game about a
foul-mouthed alcoholic squirrel was
arguably their finest accomplishment on
the system not for the faint of heart
Conker’s Bad Fur Day featured sexual
innuendo tons of swearing ludes violence
and a giant singing pile of crap
quite literally are you except I of T’s
come from my chocolate starfish how
about some statue little to watch as
unorthodox as it might be these elements
are what made the game so wildly
outlandish and endearing there was just
simply nothing quite like it at the time
with its combination of stellar graphics
perverse sense of humor and unbelievable
use of voice acting despite all the
positive acclaim the game was
unfortunately released right at the end
of the n64 his life cycle and
consequently flew right under the radar
[Music]
before we unveil our pick for the game
most deserving of a sequel here a few
honorable mentions
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
number one Shadow of the Colossus
[Music]
garnering both critical and commercial
success with multiple Game of the Year
awards and eventually being entered into
Playstations Greatest Hits line it
seemed like it made perfect sense to
develop another entry of this franchise
the game was pure magic in motion as we
traversed the massive landscapes and
battled the gargantuan colossi keep in
mind that this was what the ps2 was
capable of when pushed to its absolute
limits so just imagine what could be
done now on a current gen ps4 we know
that The Last Guardian is supposedly
coming down the pipeline to scratch this
itch but we’ll believe that when we see
it
do you agree with our list which video
game do you think deserves a sequel
