Beyond Good & Evil HD Being Used to Gauge Interest In Sequel?

It seems like forever ago that Ubisoft had announced the long-awaited sequel to the cult favorite "Beyond Good and Evil" (actually, it was nearly 3 years ago at E3 2008), but since then we've gotten no news. Ubisoft seems intent on keeping fans in the dark while they decide exactly what to do with the title. After all, the original was a commercial disappointment; yet, it was also critically acclaimed.

of course this determines if or when they release a sequel. if the game flops i highly doubt ubisoft would take the risk to release 2. i will be buying the hd remake even though i already own a gamecube and ps2 copy. with trophies and hd support i cant complain. if my money can go towards the release of beyond good and evil 2 then i am happy.

I remember this game standing out among the rest when it first came out, glad to see it'll be released again in HD this time.

If the sales are to determine a sequel then hell yea I'll buy it again.

Good luck..ask Riddick how that turned out..

The critics absolutely adored this game and it's great the HD afterlife is rejuvenizing these gems..but a Beyond sequel would be highly unlikely in these hard economic times for developers.

I'm buying this game. I heard so much about, now i have a chance to play it.

Quagmire4824d ago

Me too. One of the reasons of the uncertain production of a sequel was due to the lack of sales of the first. Hopefully many people buy this to prove that it does finally deserve a sequel this time 'round.

Ubisoft's Recent Antics Have Me Fearful For The Sands of Time Remake

Hanzala from eXputer: "With Ubisoft's practices becoming increasingly anti-consumer lately, the destruction of The Sands of Time Remake looks almost inevitable."

Hey Ubi, here's a gun, don't shoot yourself in the foot.

At this point, only dummies have any hope left for Ubi-junk games.

Every industry has these issues

Some companies I’ve worked for were great and some were toxic as hell (UPS when I was a teenager was extremely toxic and I have heard it still is) It all starts at the top. They either hold people accountable , set standards and treat people with respect or the crap rolls downhill.
