"This Franchise should die" Threads ar the franchise that need to die.

 

[Vincent V]

An attempt at wit just earned my contempt.

Nobody on this thread has complained about a game being rubbish without having played them.

I didn't say that, I said they were being egotistical douches.

I'm just putting it as simply as possible as you didn't seem to understand the first time. It is true that the only thing that comes of these threads is people saying that certain franchises that they don't like should no longer exist and never do they consider that others may believe differently. This often results in flamewar, am I to be called an egotistical douche for trying to prevent flamewar?

I don't think any franchise needs to die, just 1 of 2 things needs to happen.

1) They put the game aside for a while and come back after they got a good idea

2) Fanboys need to stop praising terrible games.

Sonic and Halo leap to mind. Sonic is stuck in an unplayable mess of the old school crapfest (as in, the bad parts of retro) and can never seem to catch up with the times. I'll admit the only reason I want Halo to die as people might stop trying to rip it off and make something innovative for the FPS genre again. Say, make a Time Shift game but make it playable. Tomb Raider suffers from the same problems as Sonic as well.

I will happily defend any series however that can be reimagined, and this included Final Fantasy and Megaman. While both series have an embarassing number of titles that date back several gens they don't have an established continuity and its possible to reimagine the cast and/or world as needed. This is more passable with Final Fantasy than with Megaman since FF is evolving with the times, seeing as XII didn't have awkward transitions into battle screens which really have been hurting most JRPGs lately. Unfortuneately the series is starting to feel like its repeating itself as the apparent premise of XIII is very similar to VII. Megaman meanwhile creates a bunch of sequels to a single series with about five seconds of plot (save Megaman VII which I contend had one of the best endings in the series) and almost no real progress made. However, the series seem to eventually stop as new ones are made.

Just about any sports game/franchise.

I felt that the real time battles in FFXII were rubbish and that the franchise has become poorer for it. all subsequent titles will have this slow mess of a battle system that is basically turn based battling for retards! Although the battles seen in the latest video seem to have your actions occur immediately and then recharge afterwards, a better idea in my opinion. It all looked very FFVII:AC with people being thrown into the air and kept up there with a barrage of swinging blades and flying bullets. A bit like Devil May Cry in that respect.

 

[DND Judgement]

it'll be on here already but final fantasy....

 

[Livi70590]

Too many to choose just one.
Star Wars
Mario
Zelda
Metroid
Pokémon
Sonic
Halo
Final Fantasy
Call of Duty
Tony Hawk's
Need for Speed.

I could go on all day.

 

[Fighterblaze]

Final Fantasy above all things.

Sidenote:
more pokemon games means more attacks, abilities, more items and more pokemon.
This is a GOOD thing.
No one plays the game for the story, we play it to make team, EV train and to dominate cunts.

^ you win many internets.

I'm going to have to go with Sonic and Final Fantasy.

Almost everything touched by EA
