can a sequel ever beat the original?

Dirge of cerberus means "to suck ass"

Seriously, because that game was wank, so you told me.

[tamathps]

dirge of cerberus was more of a spin off to me, not even the same format of gaming

[latimer-kun]

the only bad thing about dirge of cerberus was the annoyingly long cut-scenes, when you get the super sonic equivalent stagethere was like a 10 minute long cut-scene that just ruined my mojo, seriously its like you fight a couple of enemies..CUT-SCENE....its just stupid

[Matt-Sama]

A bit like blood reign, but blood reign you could skip
Infact, I never played blood reign 2.

I'm surprised no ones brought up the Pokemon series. This series truly states that you shouldn't release games prematurely. Sure you'll get a little fun out of it for awhile, but after that, nothing. I mean, there over 30 Games in general, and the only note worthy ones are:

Pokemon Red/Blue- The first one's.

Pokemon Stadium- The 3D N64 one (that actually incorporated a battle system).

Hey You, Pikachu!- The hidden treasure.

Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green- The remakes that incorporated Wireless communication

Pokemon Emerald- Not really note worthy, but it was the only one to be released alone.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team/Blue Rescue Team- The out of character one.

Pokemon Diamond/Pearl- The current DS version that incorporates Wi-Fi.

The others are either exact copies with a few different Pokemon, or just gimmicky. Even the current DS version still needed more tweaking before release. It is Seriously a series that has to chill.

Hey You, Pikachu!- The hidden treasure. (Have it and its still fun)

Pokémon FireRed/LeafGreen- The remakes that incorporated Wireless communication (Never played it but was great with its wireless)

Pokémon Emerald- Not really note worthy, but it was the only one to be realsed alone. (Basically a game where you can catch the legendarys from Ruby and Sapphire)

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team/Blue Rescue Team- The out of character one. (Never beat it but was a great rpg type of game)

Pokémon Diamond/Pearl- The current DS version that incorperates Wi-Fi. (Still fun especially when PBR comes out)

The others are either exact copies with a few different pokemon, or just gimmicky. Even the current DS version still needed more tweaking before realease. It is Seriously a seire's that has to chill.

And i do agree that the pokemon Company does shell out a ogod amount of games, some needed more fixing, and some are perfect the way they are.

Yeah after Pokemon Gold I just stopped because come on what was there to buy?. Alot of people came back to Pokemon when it became Wifi.

[Matt-Sama]

Pokemon sucked after yellow in my opinion.
Stadium was good, stadium 2 was not.
Pokemon snap, rises above all.

[Dark Hamsterlord]

Pokemon Gold/Silver was one of my favorites.

I liked going to Kanto after Jhoto, and catching the old pokemon, and battling the old gym leaders

[Matt-Sama]

It started to get stupid after kanto.

Must have sucked for ash

"IM GONNA CATCH ALL 151 POKEMON!!!"

Then the count keeps rising so thats more to collect.

"IM GONNA CATCH ALL........493?...493 POKEMON!? FUCK!!"

Sucks to be ash.

Naruto shippuuden is better than naruto

[Next-Gen.]

True, if they had fewer flashbacks of what happened 3 seconds before.

Speaking of Naruto the first clash of ninja game sucked but Clash of ninja 2 was saved by the 4 player and more characters. Funny enough I hate the actual show but the games where pretty good.

[Matt-Sama]

I liked gekken taisen 4, (clash of the ninja 4) best it was great.
Naruto ultimate ninja is the best, i just love the manga style.

I preferred Halo 2 to Halo,

I disagree so much. I thought Halo 1 was Brilliant. Halo 2 was just trying to milk success that it got from the first one. I guess I just feel this way because I never played it on Xbox Live. I heard that that was the best feature.

it really depends on whether or not you like playing alone,halo 1 had a good storyline,and halo 2 had a great multiplayer mode.

and games like the original ssb and mario kart had room for improvement.So the bar wasnt raised too high for their sequels.

[Next-Gen.]

The only real problem is the expectation some people have for these thing's. Which gives it alot of negative feedback in the end when it doesn't approve to their, standards. You can't expect a sequel to always be a groundbreaking experience.
