LAG - "Most sequels tend to play it safe, changing a few problems with the game to simply improve it slightly. Needless to say, these aren’t those games.
Here we’re honouring the top 10 games that blew their predecessors away. The criteria? It has to be an enormous improvement over the game before it. With that being said,here are the honourable mentions that just missed out on the top 10:"
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
Just one problem with the list: Assassin's Creed is an Ubisoft property, not Activision.
Metal gear 3: snake eater
Mario 64 (or maybe Mario Galaxy)
I know i will get disagrees but this is personal opinion ok
Mojora's mask it was an amazing sequel deserves more recognition
Mass Effect 2...no it wasn't improved at alll, more like dumbed down
Uncharted 2 should be on that list by the way.
I was one of those that felt (and still feels, since it is my favourite game now) Mass Effect was a much better game than Mass Effect 2, although I can see why people prefer ME2 to it considering the improvement of the combat system in particular among other additions (mind you I still prefer the combat system in ME despite its flaws because it actually makes you use your powers often with enemies that run directly at you and the overheating gun system, rather than just being able to depend on a submachine gun the whole game if you want to).
