Hideo Kojima's radio drama revival of the Snatcher franchise is now available for download. Access the first act of "Suda 51's Sdatcher" at the newly opened official site. New acts will follow every other week through November.
Howdy, once again, pardners! AlienLion counts down ten pretty random games that should have been franchises, as in series, as in they should have had sequels. These are all epic titles that were mostly overlooked and forgotten (well ok, not ALL of them forgotten) for no damn good reason. If you are not familiar with some of them, get off the Internet and get to installin’! Or at least, read about them here to find out if you really should. I wish some of them got remakes as well but they’re worth a few splinters as they are. Anyway, of course, this is not a complete list, and a bit of a sequel is coming up next, but for now, enjoy:
Ristar and Comix Zone
edit: I'm looking up that Landstalker game, it looks fantastic and will probably pick that up
Landstalker is my favourite Megadrive game, It's every bit as brilliant as A Link To The Past.
Psi-Ops was one of my favorite PS2 games,
& we never got the damn sequel cuz Midway went belly-up...
kya dark lineage
sphinx and the cursed mummy
coomix zone
ristar
mirrors edge
sphinx and the cursed mummy
I had it on PS2, it was a pretty good game, but also the first to give me gaming fatigue (feeling sick while playing a game) so I never went back to it afterwards.
:(
@AlienLion
Are you the one who wrote this article? If so, congrats.
Very well written and hilarious. You are the kinda guy I'd like to sit and talk to over a few drinks talking about games.
Great article. Like to see a Bulletstorm 2, so long as they either go full funny, or full serious, not half half.
C&C Renegade. Easily one of the best multiplayer I've ever played.
Damn EA for canning Tiberium.
Last Wednesday was a special one for fans of the Metal Gear series : Hideo Kojima and Yoji Shinkawa both were in Paris to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the series with them, with a private masterclass. We asked Kojima-san if, after the audio drama SDATCHER with Suda51, he would like to return to Snatcher once again...
Don`t talk about it ... just make the damn game.
I mean, i want to be fluent in Japanese but I aint gonna get there unless I get around to actively working on it.
You should definitely play it, but buy it is another story considering the price on auctions sites today :/
Surprised that the first hasn't been reissued in some form. via PSN/XBL if not an iOS.
As for a new one, I'm actually worried about a sequel in this current era. That a console version would just be another FPS.
Is he waiting for Us to do it or what?
C'mon Mr. Kojima, grease the wheels.
