KOTOR. A real KOTOR, not an MMO.
Freespace.
Duke Nukem.
Wing Commander.
Master of Orion.
Deus Ex.
Baldurs Gate.
X-Wing and/or TIE Fighter.
No One Lives Forever.
Alien Vs Predator.
Wolfenstein.
Unreal.
Dungeon Keeper.
Titan Quest.
Total Anihilation.
Mechwarrior.

Pretty much everything on my list is something that actually had a sequel but it sucked balls.
Many of the ones that are coming out look like they will probably suck balls.
Of the few left its unlikely we will ever see them, probably because the company either disappeared or got eaten by EA, in which case they will milk and/or stomp the series dead.

EDIT:
At this point the only thing I am looking forward to is Deus Ex 3, and if it stinks I will give up on PC Gaming.
Am turning 30 in May and frankly outside of Deus Ex 3 there are much better things I could be doing with my life.
 
Rogue
Zork and other Infocom
Heroes of Might & Magic (get it right)
Myst
The Last Express
Heaven & Earth
Arx Fatalis
Total Annihilation

The Jane Simulator games (ATF, 688i, etc.) were all favorites of mine but nothing has come up to replace them. Silent Hunter could theoretically replace 688i but they have different points of view.
 
I'd like to see a sequel to:

- Turok 2: Seeds of Evil (my #1 FPS of all time, and no, Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion does not count)

- Shadow Man 2: Second Coming (the original being much better, but I still liked the second enough to want a direct sequel to it)

- System Shock 2 (why am I even suggesting this, it should have been made a long time ago)

- S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl (to those who might not know, Clear Sky is a prequel)

- Half-Life 2 (dammit Valve, enough with your so called episodes or whatever, give us a real sequel, full length, with story details)

- Quake IV (I liked it despite the somewhat bad public reception, generally speaking, I'd like to see a sequel to that)

- Earthworm Jim 2 (yes you read that right, although not a direct sequel story-wise, I'd love another great, long, complex, funny, cheesy, exaggerated, and tough 2D side-scroller with superb animated 3D backgrounds and effects, I simply loved the Earthworm Jim games back then, and any other versions following EWJ2 on other platforms were simply boring)

- Black Thorne (Something must have happened with the remaining Sarlac's forces?! Even just an attempt by some vengeful Sarlac agent against Tuul would suffice for me)
 
Duke Nukem
Deus Ex
Hitman: Blood Money
Splinter Cell
XIII... I loved this game, and really hope there's a sequel to this one
Max Payne... very glad now that they've announced a MP3 finally!
 
[*]Privateer 2
[*]Wing Commander IV
[*]Freespace II
[*]Descent III
[*]Vampire : Bloodlines Masquerade
[*]Day of the Tentacle
[*]Armed and Dangerous
[*]Grim Fandango
[*]Full Throttle
[*]Commander Keen
[*]Heroes of Might and Magic III
[*]Shogo : Mobile Armor Division
[*]Slave Zero

At least we've got a pretty good Sam 'n Max series going from Telltale.
 
Game that has no sequel at all (similar titles do not count and are all super old anyways): TIE Fighter

Game that has had sequels but needs more (and actually done right): Tribes

Which is exactly why he said KOTOR; many of us are not pleased at all to become a janitor of the old republic. We want to be the most badass jedi ever such as Revan/the Exile.
