I think that most sequels except seem to be quite forgotten with very few mentions in modern times. And I think it's a shame because many did improve in the original's gameplay even if it also made it harder.
So what do you think? What to you think of Defender compared to Stargate or Centipede compared to Millipede? Which one would you have if you had the choice?
So far I haven't really delved into it and besides the obvious examples like the terrible Spy Hunter II, I don't know which ones I should try. Some games I really wonder on:
1) Gaplus vs Galaga. Other than being much more difficulty, I haven't heard any comments on Gaplus gameplay. What did they change or add?
2) Best Pac Man games. Sure, everyone loves the original and Ms Pac Man but that's it, there are very little comments on the rest tough I heard that the rest of titles by Midway were all pretty bad.
3) Qix JAMMA games. After Qix II, which is almost exactly like the original, Taito released Super Qix which ditched the abstract graphics and introduced power ups and the unreleased but AFAIK playable Twin Qix.
Thoughts?
