It's about \"Missing in Action: Sequels We'd Love to See.\"

Done.

I'm kind of surprised not to see FS3 on that list. At least PD got a link out of it.

The Lion · Post by **The Lion** » Wed Jan 17, 2007 7:54 am

Voted Descent 4. 72 currently. Not bad, especially considering Half-life has only 70...!

Diedel · Post by **Diedel** » Wed Jan 17, 2007 8:28 am

Been there, done that.

Good ole VE3D - haven't been there for years. Its quality kinda went down when being turned over to IGN.

Foil · Post by **Foil** » Wed Jan 17, 2007 11:45 am

Done. It's currently sitting at 132, about 4th or 5th out of the 20 in the poll.

Interplay moved their website to ign?

Anyone else remember the Interplay poll?

Gooberman · Post by **Gooberman** » Wed Jan 17, 2007 8:23 pm

I voted D4,

But the most surprising lack of a sequal is definitely Starcraft.

CDN_Merlin · Post by **CDN_Merlin** » Wed Jan 17, 2007 9:14 pm

I'm sure Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3 are in the making in one form or another.

They are to popular not to be.

Sirius · Post by **Sirius** » Wed Jan 17, 2007 10:31 pm

I was a little whore and voted for Diablo 3... but that's only because, well, it's true. Mainly because as much as a Descent 4 would be nice, there is less of a guarantee that it won't suck...

dissent · Post by **dissent** » Wed Jan 17, 2007 11:10 pm

D4 @ 211 (after I removed the hanging chad)

Palzon · Post by **Palzon** » Wed Jan 17, 2007 11:50 pm

I'm surprised no one has yet posted or commented on this...

voting link wrote:Descent 4
The Poop—Vertigo-inducing flying shooters were all the rage in the early days of 3D graphics. One of the more popular series was Descent. Both games were incredibly popular, and people still hold fond memories of them today. After a few years, the genre just died out for whatever reason. The game still has a regularly [visited] Planet site, believe it or not. Now that's some serious dedication!

Best part...

Oh, and how we will breakdance with glee on that joyous day.

Oh, and by the way...

I voted twice and was about to use some of my other accounts to vote more, then I realized I had come up with a useful application for a botnet: the ability to control thousands of votes!

Do they track votes by IP?

Voted D4, 355 now

woodchip · Post by **woodchip** » Fri Jan 26, 2007 5:52 pm

360 now but at 1088 my fav RTS Starcraft rules thr roost

BigSlideHimself · Post by **BigSlideHimself** » Fri Jan 26, 2007 6:19 pm

Does anyone know why there hasn't been a StarCraft 2 yet?

I realize WarCraft 3 was Blizzard's next gen RTS and might have taken the place of StarCraft 2, but that game was/is way too popular just to leave it at that. It seems like such a viable franchise that I can't comprehend why, 7-8 years later there still hasn't been a sequel.

CDN_Merlin · Post by **CDN_Merlin** » Fri Jan 26, 2007 7:11 pm

I'm sure it's in the works. They sold more copies of Starcraft in Korea than there are people.

Glowhyena · Post by **Glowhyena** » Sat Jan 27, 2007 1:08 pm

Voted for Descent 4 - 379. I hope Freespace 3: Shivan are Back.

And Descent 4: Dravis' Brother...

Why not Freespace 3?! T_T

CDN_Merlin · Post by **CDN_Merlin** » Mon Jan 29, 2007 1:39 pm

Um, if you haven't noticed, this forum is based on Descent and not Freespace.

Top Wop · Post by **Top Wop** » Mon Jan 29, 2007 3:19 pm

He is noting that FS3 is not on the list.

Glowhyena · Post by **Glowhyena** » Mon Jan 29, 2007 4:30 pm

All right, I'm stopped postin' about other stupid games...

We hope Interplay Productions are back then remake Descent 4.

CDN_Merlin · Post by **CDN_Merlin** » Mon Jan 29, 2007 4:46 pm

Interplay is long gone. NO one will ever use them again to publish games.

As for FS3, FS2 only sold 25,000 copies compared to over 1 million for D1/2 and 50,000 for D3.

Glowhyena · Post by **Glowhyena** » Mon Jan 29, 2007 4:53 pm

Aww. S***! Who shut down that productions? The NASDAQ?

d3jake · Post by **d3jake** » Mon Jan 29, 2007 5:24 pm

So it'd prolly just take a huge lump sum to get to produce any kind of D4 commercially?

D3 cost 2 million. Got spare change?

That's it? That seems low even compared to contemporary budgets.

Contemporary, as in "at the time of its release."
