Something that annoys me is that some people hate sequels just because the original was better. Like I know a guy who was in love with crono trigger, and than he played crono cross and hated it just because he thought crono trigger was better. That was the entire reason for hating the game, when he compared it to other games he would always say crono cross was better even though it sucked. I dont think you should even really look at games as sequels but instead look at them as games standing alone. If your able to do that than the sequels are almost always as enjoyable.

It depends on the game company, and what you want to see in the sequels. I think it's 75-25%. Most of the time, it's either way better, or way worse. If the first game is really good, it will most likely have a bad sequel.

I am in the not really category, what are your opinions?

I agree with you, almost NO sequels are better than the original.

some sequals are good like kingdom hearts 2 but most of them is really really bad, they took out the good stuff and put in more bad stuff like wwe games.

Sequels depend on the story line . . . some are great, some are terrible, and some are just repeats.

Have always said this - but originals are always the best - it's the only reason they bring out a sequel really isn't it?

its rare a sequel can beat its predecessor, because the original game is that, originalsequels tend to copy the first game

Usually they are as good, since they tend to be different, and/or an expansion on the previous game.So I voted "Most the time(75%)"
