10 Fan-Demanded Video Game Sequels That Should NEVER Happen

5. Gun 2

It's a bit weird that Wild West games never got popular. The two times Rockstar dropped their Earth-shattering Red Dead games, a surge in thinkpieces from journalists followed, wondering if a new boom was about to begin but, sadly, the audience's interest never really extended to other titles.

That is, with the exception of one little Western game released at the dawn of the Xbox 360 generation: Gun.

Though it wasn't the most technically-polished shooter at the time (and it wasn't exactly good looking either) there was something about the title - it had a certain charm to it that made it far more than the sum of its parts. It helped as well that there were few games at the time doing the Wild West gimmick or simply out for the Xbox 360 at all, which made Gun a popular choice amongst players.

Those two factors in particular are why a sequel would probably suck if it came out today. Gun was hardly a AAA title, and there's a good chance a sequel would be a download-only budget game than a full blown-sequel. It had neither the characters nor the world to support a franchise - especially in a post-Red Dead world - and is better off being remembered as an early hidden gem of the 360 era.
