Ehh....Not necessarily. It's a matter of perception, I think.
Example....Manhunt 1. Great game ? Oh, Yeah.
So what happens ? Manhunt 2 comes out. Highly anticipated. Delayed release (not because of the game, because of ERSB & JT bullshit).
Does the crowd love it ? Well ?
NO. Why ? Because, BOO-HOO, it didn't have James Earl Cash in it ! Sacrilege !!
No Carcer City (well, not much). No characters from MH 1. How dare they ?
The game Sucks because pussy Danny Lamb and his alter-ego Leo are in it.
What the HELL ? BOO !!!!!!!
Now, my take.
Was Manhunt 2 a good game ? Oh, Yeah.
Was the different story line different ? Sure it was.
Who in the Hell wants a REHASH of the first game ?
Did I like MH 2 as much as MH 1 ? Damn Right I Did.
Complaints ? The game was 4 episodes shorter than the first one.
That's all. I liked them both equally.
But there will never be a Manhunt 3, and that's sad.
I was so looking forward to a NEW, DIFFERENT STORY.
A Bully 2 'remake' ? Wasn't that Scholarship Edition ?
Do we really need a Rehash ? Really ?
