Tomb Raider is having a sequel made. The original creator, who left after TR1, has returned to the development crew.

Samurai Shodown 5 is coming out on PS2, and the upgraded veriosn is comign to Xbox.

As for Duke Nukem Forever...well, no idea....

Garlador Wrote: Duke Nukem, perhaps? Tomb Raider? How 'bout Tobal or Gex? Anyone even remember Hybrid Heaven or Samurai Shodown games? Fatality.

Okay, maybe not dead, but AGING, franchises, right?
For me:
the LOADED series
NiGHTS
Chrono series
Armorines
Battle Arena Toshinden
Street Fighter ('cause we've been waiting too long for SF4, and there are NO plans on making one, anytime soon. Damn you, Capcom, for milking SFII for over TEN YEARS!)
MediEVIL!
I'll go one further: PUNCH-OUT!!

Punch Out would be very cool.
As would Mega Man (non-X).

The Rush series. Don't really know if they plan on making more, but I haven't heard anything about it, so I'd like to see the Rush games return.
Edit: I'd also like to see the Cruisin' USA games return to. They were just fun games to play. Another Ready2Rumble wouldn't hurt either.

ROADRASH
Earthworm Jim
BattleTanks
Body Harvest

Yeah.

Three simple words:

Streets of Rage

Their are only 2 franchises other than Mortal Kombat that I've spend many many quarters pumping into arcades. They are San Franisco Rush and T-Mek. Ok T-Mek never had a sequel but it was a damn fine tank sim. To me San Franisco Rush: RUSH THE Rock was the last good Rush game. I didn't like Rush 2 and Rush 2049( I didn;t like 2049 since I had the N64 version). Anyways, I would like to see sequels of these days. If another Rush game is to be created I hope it takes place in San Franisco -_-, or New York would be a cool setting.

Here are two games I would like to see reborn I can't think of the other ones right now and here is the two games:
Streets of Rage
Legaia series (Legaia 2: Duel Saga was a great game)

The Chaos Engine...

and as junkboytoy said - Earthworm Jim.

Those, plus another Mace game would be good.

Golden Axe.

Golden Axe would be awesome. . .

but, my true wish -

RIVER CITY RANSOM!!!

Get me some of that beefsteak!

Duuuude! A new Golden Axe game would be awesome. I played that so much in the arcades. That, MK, MKII, MK3 and Rampage.

The Killer Instinct series should make its triumphant return! Maybe it should take on MK, MK vs KI sounds like a pretty damn good game to me.

Earthworm Jim, Killer Instinct, Battletoads...

Killer Instinct and Grandia.

Vangaurd Bandits
Grandia
Loaded.

I hope they are making a new Twisted Metal.

Killer Instict
Dragon Warrior
Gradius
Double Dragon


Ghost Dragon

The #1 choise for me is KILLER FUCKIN INSTICT!. I don't care what system its on. they need to make a Killer Instict 3 already!

I'am surprised they never made a Primal Rage 2. that was such a cool game.

A new Twisted Metal game would be awesome. maybe Twisted Metal Black 2 or Twisted Metal 5.

Actually there was a new Golden Axe game made. Sadly we'll never see it. It's only been released in Japan. I remember they mentioned it on X-Play not to long ago when they went to the Japanese version of E3 in Japan.

Without a doubt, Shadowrun.

Runners up include Punch-Out and Killer Instinct.

I remember Incog Inc (Twisted Metal Black Developers) were saying they were going to take their time before putting out a sequel to Twisted Metal Black to avoid what happened with 3 & 4.

BATTLE TOADZ DOUBLE DRAGON BABY!!
