50 Surprise Sequels for E3 - Part I

This extensive gameplayer article tackles the sequels that should be announced at E3 2008.

"Sometimes the game industry seems so submerged in established franchises and straight-off-the-conveyor-belt sequels it seems impossible that any new IP has a chance of being noticed. But for every twenty Christmas cash cows that infest store shelves with their mediocrity, there is that one sequel we deeply yearn for – that great game that demands another shot at the big time but is bewilderingly ignored. Maybe it has merely become lost in the forgotten back catalogue of a now defunct publisher or perhaps it has been buried beneath the egotistical loggerheads of past-it developers, given up on and stuck in developmental hell. Unable to find the light as fans yell from their couches… encore! Encore! Encore!"

It's a hard task to predict E3. It's always got the covers tightly tucked under. Some the sequels suggested though would be aces. Armed & Dangerous, yes please.

I second that Shenmue comment. It was just getting good - then they fricken canned it.

Dead Rising 2 will be rocking too. Frank is my favourite simian looking photo journalist.
