The only games with prequels are the ones with deep, complicated stories, and I love those. I think that prequels are effective ways of helping the player to understand the story. I think that they're great!

A game does not need to have an overwhelmingly complex storyline to receive prequels after its initial release. Any story, weak or awe-inspiring can always have the beginning chopped off and forgotten until a later date.

What prequels do do is offer great profits. If you develop a fanbase and at some point tell them they loved the experience but they missed the basis of the storyline, consumers will come flooding in to see how it all interlocks and connects. Bungie left the Halo community, not only with a good game, but with humongous profits as suddenly everyone who'd played Halo 3 and ODST rushed to the stores to see what happened when the Covenant first attacked.

Writing a letter to the President is not English class either.

You missed the point entirely. Just because writing a letter to the President is not English class, you should not slack on spelling and grammar. That applies everywhere, including the interw3bz.

I'll stop going off-topic now.

I just love games with confusing story lines... It makes you wonder.

Prequels are usually for games with confusing story lines...

It just all depends on the game.
