"All the PS2 is getting is sequels" used to be a great argument in the arsenal of the PS2 don't wannabees.
GT3 is a sequel. But for some reason I spend more time watching replays than I do playing it. (Tried putting your replays to music and watching they synched version? It's addictive.) There's no way I'd ever consider getting Gran Turismo or Gran Turismo 2 now for my PS2, they just don't compare anymore. Probably the BEST thing about it being a sequel is that it IS a sequel and I don't have to spend a lot of time relearning all the tracks again, so I can get straight into the game at high speed.
GTA3 is a sequel. But how different can a sequel be? It's better than Driver in that its got most of Driver's features, you've just got to find them, which makes everytime you play the game a bit of an adventure in that you start outside the hideout thinking: "Now then, shall I do a mission? Shall I pull off a unique stunt? Shall I see if I can shoot down a helicopter? Or shall I just have a wonder about and see what else I can find?" And it's soooo different than GTA or GTA2 that you wonder what's going to come along next.
MGS2: Sons of Liberty is going to be a sequel. If it's anything close to being as different to its predecessors as GT3 or GTA3, then the PS2 is going to sell like hot cross buns next Easter.

Exactly. If the games are good, then who cares!

I can't see why everyone says the PS2 is nothing but sequels, I still think it's the updates we saw at launch like Ridge Racer 5,Tekken tag etc but even then SSX,Timesplitters,Smugglers run were original games.

The new FIFA is drastically different to the original, so, um.................
:D
:D
yea it annoys me when you hear people say *oh why is there no original games coming out* who gives a damn when you get great games like MGS2 and GTA3 coming or have come out. just those 2 games will be up there vying for best game ever title. as long as the game is changed enough from it's predecessor and isn't a fifa type sequel then it's all good
Who cares if they are sequels when they are benchmark games worthy of being called the best game ever on their release?
