the list - top 10 sequels we cross our fingers for

Mike:

Killer Instinct
I have been ready for a third entry in this franchise since the first time laid eyes on the second. Being a series that pushed fighting game mechanics to all new levels, its still shocking to me that SOMETHING hasn't been announced. Even more so after the succesful rebirth of Mortal Kombat, the timing couldn't be more perfect for this. I've still got my fingers crossed.

Jet Grind Radio
This title, I think, is most worthy of a sequel over all the other games on this list. The first title to truly fuse art and music with gaming outside of the music game genre. Unfortunately due to poor sales of Jet Set Radio Future and general lack of interest, SEGA moved on to crappier, Sonic-ier things. Definitely a series that could flourish with the use of today's technology.

Mortal Kombat
Not THAT Mortal Kombat. I'm talking about the original series. Cut the 'kollection' krap and give me Mortal Kombat Trilogy HD. 'nuff said.

Shenmue
On top of all the other reasons I, or everyone else, could list for wanting a sequel. They never finished the f***ing story! Make it happen. I need to whip Lan Di's ass and avenge my father's death before I die.

Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP
Okay, I'll admit it, I'm pretty much obsessed with this game. Anyone who has not had a chance to check it out needs to stop reading this now and start making some Google searches (not kidding). That being said, I am dying for more. It doesn't even have to be a true sequel, just more of it. Those of you that have played it understand.

Neal:

Remember the great JRPGS?
-Chrono series, Grandia series. Skies of Arcadia. You'd think with the hundreds of crappy JRPGs they make now-a-days they'd have the decency to give us a good one. This generation has seriously been lacking.

VIEWTIFUL JOE 3!!!
-caps and multiple exclamations. That is all.

Metroid 5
- super/fusion/zero mission sytle (Metroid: Dread anyone?) Samus is now living because of a suit infused with Metroid blood. Just think, you could acquire Metroid powers, and the Federation wouldn't like that much, and try to kill her. Fighting monsters and Federation soldiers at the same time. Oh the dreams.

Pikmin 3
-apparently coming...*sigh* We'll see.

StarFox
-Just give me a new, vehicle ONLY, arcade style StarFox. I will love you forever Nintendo. Sure, the 64 version is coming to 3DS, and that's great, but I want a new one. No out of vehicle missions. Please....please. Command was a step in the right direction, but it just left me wanting so much more out it.
