you want huge gaps between games try

Dune 2 to Dune 2000
1992 - 1998 thats 6 years

Wolfenstein 3D - Return to Wolfenstein
1992 - 2001 thats 9 years

so just because a game makes no movement in a long time dont mean it wont happen ever

I got you beat.

Doom 2 (1994) - Doom 3 (2004)
10 years

Though. It's a remake really not a sequel despite the name.

I'm not shocked a FPS gets redone much later on. The genre FS is in just might not have enough supporters to get it going.

Companies want money makers. You're gonna get WW2 FPS's, GTA clones, etc etc etc unless they add in some gimmick.

If the genre comes roaring back and people are looking for a good space sim, FS will be one of the first they call on.

[Thaeris]

Or Lucas Arts...

...Of course, everything would be retconned to Hell and back, so that would simultaneously kill the genra again. Go figure.

Friggin' George Lucas...

I think actively ****ting on the legacy of TIE Fighter would probably provoke even us to death threats, but hey...

[Akalabeth Angel]

Yeah why didn't Lucasarts make a fakking clone wars sim? That might've re-ignited the genre. They made every other ****ass genre under the sun for star wars, what's one more.

[General Battuta]

Well, Republic Commando was great.

[SpardaSon21]

And did Lucas Arts make a sequel to Republic Commando?  No, they took the easy way out and got a mediocre author to do a few books in the EU about the RC's.

[Spoon]

Duke Nukem 3D (1996) - Duke Nukem Forev... wait.

[Stormkeeper]

Duke Nukem 3D (1996) - Duke Nukem Forev... wait.

[Ziame]

Wolfenstein (1992) -Wolfenstein (2009)

[Akalabeth Angel]

Wolfenstein (1992) -Wolfenstein (2009)

Beat you xD

Yeah except you forgot Return to Castle Wolfenstein in 2001

[General Battuta]

And Enemy Territory.

Hmm. I was reading BlueFlames' posts and all I could hear was "Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment," followed by, "An open mind is a like a fortress with its gates unbarred and unguarded."

I think I need therapy.

Fear not, Battle Brother mxim. We are all brothers in arms before the gaze of the Emperor.

"Abandon all hope, all ye who enter here!"

Would that be Emperor Vectron and his shiny golden beard? 

[Colonol Dekker]

For vectron!
 
What was the gap between red alert two and three my brain forgot.
 
Insomnia sucks.

[lostllama]

9 years.

Edit: I'd say 8 or 9 years actually, but meh.

You're talking about Karen Traviss, right? "Mediocre" is too kind for her.
