We live in a world of sequels...

You know the good old saying "If it ain't broke don't fix it"? Well today's trend of games seem to be living that motto. Two of the world's most popular games (Halo 2 and GTA San Andreas) are sequels. Now don't get me wrong I love my fare share of sequels. I love the two games I just mentioned (I play Halo 2 religiously), and who doesn't love all the Die Hards, Terminator 2 (don't like T3 cause the director wasn't as good as James Cameron) and a bunch of other movies. K back to the topic at hand. Halo 2 and GTA San Andreas are awesome examples of good sequels. Simply because they take a great concept then polish it and bring the game to the next level. Well you don't really notice the huge transition but try going back to their predecessors and you'll see a HUGE difference how far gaming has come. Now I love Tony Hawk games but honestly, come on!!!! How many Tony Hawk games can you come out with. They are awesome playing games but they're also exactly the same with different mission and different levels. We all know the underground came out so it wouldn't be called Tony Hawk 5 and 6. Why not just make one uber Tony Hawk game and put all of that stuff into one colossol game? Tomb Raider did the same thing and the game just went down hill from there. I don't dislike sequels, it's only really when they take the exact same game and don't really build on top of it and it just seems like something to cash in on.
