Weekly Poll: Practice Makes Prequel
October 15, 2007
There's so much untapped potential in the world of sci-fi television shows. I'd love a Stargate game too (a non-MMORPG one, thanks), but I'm also interested in digital installments of Firefly and Doctor Who (as I've said before). It's a shame that most video games based on licensed properties fail to capture the spirit and soul of the characters and storyline. Instead it's all about the cheap cash-in (always has been) and I'm sick of it.
Looking ahead, we're coming into the big holiday gaming season which means it's time for sequels, sequels, and more sequels. Super Mario Galaxy, Ratchet and Clank Future, Halo 3, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles... the list goes on and on. My question for you this week: do you train for new sequels by replaying the previous games in the series? Did you prepare for Halo 3 by replaying Halo 2? Have you returned to Super Mario Sunshine while awaiting Galaxy? Cast your vote and leave some comments.
