Since I started the anti sequel thread I will be glad to chime in.  I dont think all they make is sequels there have been plenty of new games coming.  I think you saying without sequels the gaming indiustry would suck was a little over the top. 

Yes but what about Halo3? ot GTA4, Final Fantasy whatever number they are up to?  Yes there have been some very good sequels but MOST (not all) are just a few tweaks and out it comes with little innovation.

Dont get me wrong I am buying a few sequels but when is it enough final fantasy 65?  Halo 80?

I will be buying Fable 2, GOW2, and COD5 but there has to be an end

Name a brand new game that really changed things? i cant think of many. wii anything is just new controls but there really isnt anything "new" there that i have not seen before.

 

Devil May Cry. Super Mario Bros (hmmm...). The Legend of Zelda. Baldurs Gate. Sim City. The Sims. Civilization. Half-Life. Doom. Quake. Golden Eye (Hmm... again). Command and Conquer. Wii Sports. Wii Fit. Guitar Hero. Dance Dance Revolution. Brain Training. Portal.

Most of these games CREATED a genre. Sure, you might argue that the sequels are sometimes better, but you cannot argue their impact. Without these games, where would the industry be today? ... Not where it is today anyway.

And if you say 'Wii sports and Wii Fit is just new control' you've totally missed the point of those games.
