I want prequel for Left 4 Dead.
It would be awesome to see how the infection went around instead of being put straight in the middle of the infected planet.

But i guess the developers chose so that you don't know how the infection happened and you are meant to feel confused as to what is happening.

But saying that. i love consistency and i would REALLY love to know how it happend :)

I was wanting a Bioshock Prequel too!(exactly the same, also!...and it wouldn't have an almost certain chance to fail.)

I feel like Grim Fandango should be moved into the top spot and the article should be dedicated smallberry.
I would settle for a rerelease of Grim Fandango.

The reason that they aren't making a Disney only RPG is because it is boring. They did this with an MMORPG and who does it appeal to? Only small children. No one wants to go running around Alice in Wonderland and run in to Aladdin. You want some cool characters too, not just washed up cartoon characters, why do you think they didn't make Mulan 3? Because Mulan two was ass.

Grim Fandago= best game ever.

if Too Human wouldn't take years to make one game in the trilogy, a prequel would be nice. Too find out how the war began and how the "gods" came to be.

One can only dream though...

yeah great point, cause i really would want to know more about the games i play and not just play them and not know the logicness of em.

Its a very good idea although I know developers like sequels because it allows them to add on gameplay or combos to the character/game. Prequels are great for the story, I'll give you that.

I think Mirror's Edge needs both a prequel and a sequel. I hear a small team is working on Mirror's Edge 2... but I don't know anything more.
It needs a prequel for all the reasons listed in the article, but, if those looking to avoid spoilers would stop reading this comment right now, everyone Faith knew was either killed or betrayed her, as far as we know, except Kate. Sure, it's all because of Icarus, but if Faith had just let Kate go... would things be so bad? There's a lot of potential for a sequel story wise... minus the fact that we have a grand total of two characters left over: Faith and Kate. I wouldn't mind seeing Celeste brought back as a villian, though!

Mirror's edge had trailers which covered some of the subjects such as how faith became a freerunner and her teen relationship with her sister

@ anyone looks like a touchy subject for some (picking a fave prequel to see) argueing over personal opinions "whoa chill", Anyhoo Halo fall of reach would be excellent, read the book be awesome to play it.
Thanks for reading yawl.

How has KOTOR not been mentioned? from the Mandalorian Wars to the rise and fall of Exar Kun, to the even onlder fall of the Sith Empire, there are a lot of backstory in Kotor that would make great games.

"Since he’s obviously not available after Modern Warfare (spoiler?), a prequel will have to do; fortunately, his previous life could be the perfect time period for Infinity Ward to tackle."

what? Last time I checked, That BAMF was still alive.
