Let’s go over a few things before jumping into the meat of this article. Opinions on games are very subjective. A 10/10 masterpiece from one person may be a 0/10 dud for the next. That’s why Metacritic was used as a mediator for this list as sort of a set of guidelines. On that note, the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:PlayStation games below ar🌺e rated 90 and above as that is t🔯he closest one can get to a “perfect” game.
That said while there are seemingly a lot of games out there in need of a sequel that only received one total, like Vanquish, they didn't meet the requirements of the 90+ ranking. So while these PlayStation games aren't as special as that, in that a few have had one, or many sequels, they are on here for others reasons as well. Sound good? It will all make sense soon.
10 10. TimeSplitters 2 (꧋Metacritꦚic 90)
TimeSplitters 2 launched in 2002 for the PS2, Xbox, and GameCube to rave reviews. So why hasn’t anything happened in this series in seventeen years? Basically the rights were tied up in knots. The developer, Free Radical, was absorbed into Crytek in 2009. The publisher for the game, Eidos, was also absorbed, but to Square Enix in 2009. That’s just the start of a longer rabbit hole, but there is good news. In 2018 THQ gained the rights to TimeSplitters and they have been pretty vigilant on jumpstarting ol🦄d IP. There is hope for a sequel yet!
9 9. Diablo III (Metacritic 90) ෴
It is kind of an understatement to call the reaction to the Diablo mobile game disappointing at Blizzcon 2018. It was a little overblown, but hey, the fans want what the fans want. It has been seven years since an actual new entry in the franchise. Make no buts about it. Diablo IV will 🍸happen. It’s a matter of when and not if. Let them try their mobile game and see where things go from there.
8 🐲 8. Shadow of the Colossus (Metacritic 9ꦐ1)
Of all the games Fumito Ueda and his team have made, Shadow of the Colossus is still the best and brightest of the three. It’s also, to this day fourteen yearꦜs later, completely unique. Try and count how many open world games that are centered on giant bosses there are.
While AAA companies have been absent, there are a few indies in this vein like Jotun and the upcoming Praey for the Gods. As much as one would want ༒a sequel though, the game is perfect so a sequel may diminish its legacy. One never knows unless one tries though.
7 🏅7.♕ Rayman Legends (Metacritic 91)
In 2010 Ubisoft created an engine called UbiArt Framework. The first game to release under this banner was Rayman Origins in 2011, which rebooted the franchise for the better making the brand matter again. Besides its sequel and this entry’s subject, Rayman Legends, there were several other fun projects under this studio including Child of Light and Valiant Hearts. While there were some phone sequels, the last UbiArt game was in 2015. As recently as this past April, about the future of the studio and they were vagueꩲ at best.
6 🌟 6. Vagrant S🎐tory (Metacritic 92)
Despite the fact that there are no official plans to give Vagrant Story a 💦sequel, plenty of fans are clamoring to see this game get a follow up. Maybe if written enough the trends with rise, Square Enix will take notice, and a sequel will finally get green lit.
At this point, a quick HD remaster in the same vein as the recent Final Fantasy ports would be more than ideal as a first step. Don&rs🉐quo♛;t forget about Ivalice!
5 5. Bloodborne (꧒M𝓡etacritic 92)
Bloodborne is the best Souls experience on the market along with being a great accidental spiritual successor to Castlevania. The dark gothic time period. The eerie nature of the castles and grottos. The creatures roaming within said structures. All of it is literally breathtaking because it’ll make one scream in terror until they pass out. Okay, that ꦍmay be hyperbolic, but it’s true to an extent. Since Sony helped publish it as a PS4 exclusive, they have the rights to make another. Would it be wise to try without FromSoftware though?
4 4. Okami𝔉 (Metacritic 93) 🥂
Yes, this one is kind of a cop out. There was a sequel to Okami via the DS: Okami-den. While good, it was actually more like a side companion to the main game in that it reused a lot of content. Also, this was on a portable so a real, console sequel is what this wonderful game really deserves. Hasn’t Capcom surveyed the waters enough times already? They re-released the game on the Wii, PS3, PS4, PC, Xbox One, and Switch. If it’s b🐻een ported that many tiꦦmes it must sell, right? So get on with the sequel already!
3 3. BioShock Infinite (Metacriti🍷c 94)
Since this game released in 2013, it has received some mixed news. Once high reviews have soured over the years for starters. The developer, Irrational Games, was downsized in 2014 to focus on smaller games. The team was then rebranded as Ghost Story Games in 2017, but there have been no games released under either brand since. In 2018 rumors about a sequel surfaced via a Kotaku article afte❀r in regard to Is this real, or what? Hopefully, it’s not just another illusionary lighthouse.
2 🤡 2. Chrono Cross (Metacritic 94)
Chrono Cross is technically a sequel to Chrono Trigger, but it’s a very loose connection. The first game was also superior, but that said this game has its merits too. There was seemingly a third entry planned called Chrono Break on an unspecified platform. This was in 2001 so presumably, it was meant for PS2. However, nothing came of it and the trademark finally expired for Japan in 2012. That hasn’t stopped fans from making their own versions of Chrono Break though. Check out the potential
1 🍸 1. Portal 2 (Metacritic 95)
Finally, the highest-ranking PlayStation game on Metacritic that doesn’t have a sequel is Portal 2. There actually has even some activity since it launched in 2011 though. There was a LEGO Dimensions playset themed around Portal after its 2015 debut. There was also The Lab in 2016, which is a VR demo of sorts. Then there was a Bridge Constructor spin-off involving Portal in 2017. The list goes on. It is gone, but not forgotten just like a lot of Valve’s properties. It’s time to stop beating around the bush though. Make Portal 3 a reality!
