6 Sequels That Could Work As Episodic Games

Dino Crisis 4

HorrorEp_5

Capcom is already doing it with Revelations 2, so why not try it out with their long-dead survival horror series Dino Crisis? There aren’t enough games with dinosaurs, and I know there are plenty gamers out there who wouldn’t mind seeing that franchise return. It’s been over a decade since the abysmal Dino Crisis 3 was successful in burning the series to the ground, so most folks have probably already forgot about how bad it was.

Risk is an issue with any niche series that’s been gone for a very long time, but that’s a worry that episodic gaming can alleviate.

I suggest an experimental season, maybe 2-3 episodes long so as to keep development costs down. Capcom can see how it performs and use it to gauge public interest in a possibly longer second season.
