10 of the Worst Sequels to Our Most Fondly Remembered Games

Steel Battalion Heavy Armor

You would think a game about piloting hulking suits of armor along war-torn beaches would always be fun on some level. The original Steel Battalion partly succeeded due to its massive, unwieldy controller which made the player feel like they really were piloting a lumbering machine.

The most recent entry in the franchise traded thumb sticks and levers for motion controls. The addition of Kinect was a poor one, making every part of gameplay difficult to interface with and much less enjoyable. Everything felt like a gimmick. It only adds insult to injury when you consider how enjoyable the first game was.
