Phil writes, "Too often we see video game sequels that don't quite live up to their predecessors... but we already have an article series dedicated to those games. Instead, let's take a look at those video game sequels that not only live up to their predecessors but greatly surpass them in quality. It's time to bring back The Most Improved Video Game Sequels (you can read part one here) to check out these sensational sequels that delivered and did so in a deliciously delightful manner."

Luigis Mansion 3 doesn’t really belong in that list because the first game was great and it’s sequels didn’t really redefine the series.
There’s more to Ubisoft’s back catalogue than its Templar-bothering flagship franchise and we’re here to prove it. By grovelling for remasters, of course.
With the Switch bringing interest back into the realm of motion controls, it seems as good a time as any to dip back into the backlog and retrieve some lucrative nuggets from the one that launched the phenomenon in the first place: the Nintendo Wii.
I liked the first Red Steel but in my opinion they're changing this one too much.
The whole western theme to the game makes no sense at all and seems pretty ridiculous if you ask me. The biggest problem I have with this game though, is that they completely got rid of the multiplayer mode.. Why would they have it in the first and not the second, especially since we could have had some awesome 1:1 sword fights?
The game still looks like it will be fun but I'm sure it will be really short, even with this Ninja Mode. So without multiplayer I probably won't pick it up until it hits the $20 mark.
They are using the extra time to put some more sauce and add extra polish to the game. I'm looking forward to it.
