The Best Sequels of 2012

The video game industry celebrates original ideas with unparalleled vigor. New titles sparkle atop store shelves and from within online message boards, glinting with a near infinite wealth of possibility. 2012 had an incredible lineup of new games, from Journey to Dishonored. And we, the gaming masses, consumed them happily.

But sometimes, a sequel just hits the spot.

This year enjoyed the launch of many, many sequels. And fortunately lots of those sequels turned out to be pretty great. Let's take a look at the very best sequels of the year, ordered by the score they earned right here on IGN.
