Curious about games that you were looking forward to coming out and they ended up never being released. Or games that should have a sequel but for some stupid reason do not. I wanted Starcraft:Ghost to happen so bad. Also Black 2. I had a lot of fun with the first one and just wanted to see more gun porn. Or where the heck is The Legend of Dragoon 2?

I totally dug the Battletech game that rolled out in 2018 but it doesn't look like it will get a sequel. I think Microsoft somehow ended up with the rights to the game when they bought whatever parent company held them.

I'm pretty saddened at the fate of the Deus Ex series. When Mankind Divided came out, there was supposed to be another one in development that just never materialized. I'm not getting my hopes up for another one while it's in the hands of Embracer group, at least not at the moment.

Oh man, Starcraft Ghost was one that stung when I was a kid. I remember periodically checking the official website for news and screenshots and stuff.

A proper Warcraft rts would be sweet, but given the bad press around WC3 Reforged I doubt that would happen.

Obligatory Half Life 3 post -- or at the very least a Half Life 2: Episode 3. >.> Also Mega Man Legends 3.

That's because it wasn't even made by Blizzard, they outsourced it to, if memory serves, some Chinese mobile game studio :lol:
But yeah that did sting. I've been patiently waiting for WCIV for 20 goddamn years. Between WoW's success and the meteoric rise of MOBAs we definitely got robbed.
