I don't agree with that at all. From a business standpoint yes but from a gamer and artistic standpoint, I don't think so. There are plenty of good games out there that would do well in a sequel but don't get them because of sales, such as Brothers in Arms and now Dead Space, Red Faction. All are great games that people would love to play sequels but because one game missed projections, they may not see the light of day again. Then you have games series that had a good initial game then they ended up pumping out sequels that don't always seem to be good. For example, TimeSplitters deserved a sequel but the last game a lot of people felt missed its mark. Medal of Honor too. In the push to make money and fill the bottom line, those game series got killed. Were those sequels "deserved" or should the series have ended on high notes?
