Ok am I the only one whos had enough of games having like 6 sequals.
You no what i mean games like Tomb raider , crash bandicoot , fifa , tekken and ridge racer.
Every year a new title in the series is released but with little difference to past releases, things like new race tracks , new costumes etc. Sometimes the only improvement is the graphics and face it graphics arnt every thing arnt they?
So i dont think its fair on us for the games company, each november to release the next in the series with slim to nill difference from the one you have at home which you got bored of after 3 weeks and they are selling it to us for £40. So this year when tomb raider- what ever it is now and crash bandicoot -how long will this go on for are released around christmas just think to your self...
IS IT REALLY WORTH , WOULDNT I RATHER PLAY A NEW AND ORIGIONAL GAME?

im not a big fan of the Final Fantasy games or the tomb raider ones. But ones like gran turismo, resident evil are essential and if the PS2 is going to be succesful it needs developers to churn out more like these. Sequels are needed as long as they have changed from the original, ie they must have all the bugs/problems from its prequel fixed, new additions, better graphics/playability or else they aren't worth buying.

Final Fantasy X is going to be another 10/10 game on the series and will be very good game.

I slightly agree with you there. A game that goes on and on with sequel after sequel with little change isn't fair on us "the gameplayers" but some games need sequels, if gran tourismo didn't keep producing its game then we wouldn't have such a great driving game for our machine. Games like tomb raider though are not worth it. Little change between the first and the last except maybee the size of Ms Crofts b-b-b-b-b "blue eyes???????" but there are original ideas out there but bare in mind developers have to make a gamble when producing a game as there is a chance nobody will buy it, whereas a sequel always attracts the attention of the owners of the original game.
