Fair points to both of you (Lawn and Zamp). My only suggestion is that a sequel is not always strictly necessary. If the gameplay of something is almost entirely unchanged by what you want to add, then is a full sequel really a necessity?
For an online game such as Bordlerlands, I understand about dividing your playerbase. That is a fair point I hadn't considered, Lawndart. But by and large I don't think games that aren't either continuing the story of a story-driven game (Mass Effect) or aren't changing gameplay/graphics in some fundamental way (I dunno...uh...EverQuest versus EverQuest II, or maybe Dungeon Siege versus Dungeon Siege II), then a sequel isn't really necessary.
Don't get me wrong. I thought people were going overboard in their whining/boycotts/protests against L4D2. But the fundamental point they were making, well that I agree with. L4D2 did not really require a sequel despite its numerous enhancements. Of course, economics is a primary concern so it may have been the smartest decision for Valve, but from a cost-value perspective for the consumer...meh.
Every time I watch a bit of that film I find a new facet of it which is totally ridiculous.
The one I just now noticed:
Upon seeing Jaws through the restaurant window and finally convincing Louis Gosset Jr. that they have a real shark problem, LGJ orders the main characters to evacuate all the people from the park and seal it.
So the main characters proceed to run around the park waving their arms and shouting at people to leave because....
Yes, because this state of the art theme park/semi open ocean aquariam which has underwater glass tunnels, tens of millions of dollars worth of live animal attractions, fancy computer computerized systems for monitoring everything doesn't have a public announcing system capable of ordering an evacuation.

So [chat], I'm looking for an epic awesome actiony type movie to watch to night for some nice chillaxing. Space battles are a plus, big explosions in general are a massive plus.
the brass players hunching and extending to alternately play at pavement and sky, flautists twirling notes like the flag corp’s batons, percussion’s rhythm echoing off buildings

they end up costing like a billion dollars
should have paid for a wang up-front
I will probably do that once I'm good and done with Mass Effect 2.
I'm sort of on an MMO break right now.

The key problem with all MMOs is other people.
That and they tend to suck.
