I agree with that sentiment for movies; not so much with video games. I can think of way more video game sequels that were actually better than the originals than video game sequels that were worse.

I agree. But also we've seen so many games come out that are absolute disasters that if you are buying it on day 1 (or even before) instead of waiting for the reviews to come out before buying it, you only have yourself to blame when you get burned.

I loved C:S and was very excited for this sequel to come out...but I haven't bought it because the reviews before it came out were mixed (being generous lol) and so I still haven't bought it. I'll wait or maybe never buy it. Likely I wait for the price to drop to like 15 bucks and buy it then.
