Metal Slug was the successor to Gun Force II after the team left Irem. They look and play almost identically, except GF2 has more of a futuristic theme and less cartoony characters. Right down to the hostage rescuing, riding in vehicles, etc.

I'll be damned. I don't recall ever having heard that before.

Anyway,Don't forget Bioshock!Quote:
(unless they're named Metal Slug)
Ah, good point, good point.
I think Halo should count too. Even though the Marathon games were pretty sweet in their own right.
Wasteland -> Fallout
I'm not counting shit by completely different people. I mean attempts by a game's creator to recreate their past success.Quote:

Beyond Good and Evil actually did sell fairly well. The problem was, it sold well after it had dropped to $20...
Which was like 2 weeks after it came out. God Ubi is stupid. No one who fucks up these releases will ever admit it. Warner still insists Iron Giant was "too smart" for audiences.
