No this is not a lie, I am serious. I grew up playing ultima, Final Fantasy, Zelda, Breath of fire ect..when I got to pokemon i saw it as nothing more than a time sink. It DID NOT impress me at all, even the tv show was one big "meh" for me. Trust me I need not lie about this sort of stuff.Indigo_Dingo post=9.71344.726645 said:
[/quote]I don't see any reason why the Metroid series should be put to an end... Although Metroid Fusion seems like what could possibly the very end of the series, and everything else is just games that take place between the very first Metroid and it.[/quote]
I would be happy with at least one more Metroid game that takes place after fusion, that would at least be justifiable and be a rather decent way to end off the series.

The sims. If nobody else is up to it, I hereby volunteer to pull the trigger. How many times can you possible milk a franchise? It's even worse than pokeymans!
Hear, hear. "Please" like "please, don't kill me." That kind of please. The kind where the other outcome is UNTHINKABLE.Meshakhad post=9.71344.721224 said:
I just dislike themed games. Like, Warhammer (action, FPS, RTS, MMO), Star Wars (action, platform, FPS, RTS, MMO, RPG, flight sim), Mario (platform, sport, RPG, sport, fighting, sport, minigame compendium, racing, every sport under the sun). Lego seems to be sponging out over film franchises like the Borg, and it's a trend that worries me.
legend of Zelda or more specifically the way they do it now like get rid of gannondorf and link and replace them with more interesting carecters in hyrule.
I suppose (as much as I regret saying it)Final Fantasy could be put to rest. Sure, there was a time back before Final Fantasy 7 where new consoles meant a world of new possibilities, and so with each installment (FF1 through 6) the games could grow technologically while maintaining the decent storyline aspects.
Personally, I loved Final Fantasy 6 on the Super Nintendo, and 7 was alright if you take it in its original form (without all the tacked on accessories.) The games after that seemed to take a downward spiral as Sony, Nintendo and X-box began competing for the best graphics. We saw the downfall of storylines as developers spent more and more time trying to make the best looking RPG, and though I didn't 'mind' ten and twelve, they never really lived up to the calibur of roleplaying game experience that I expected. (Twelve was awesome, actually, with the re-emergence of espers from FF6.)
Anyhow, I think there can only be so many 'Final' Fantasies, and I suppose they should have quit while they were ahead. Too late now, might as well cut and run before they run out of creativity altogether, or god forbid, do another Final Fantasy/Disney cross. (But we all know thats coming anyways.)

I never thought of it this way, but you do bring up a good point, and since Chrono Trigger is one of my all time favorites as well, I think I would agree. A remake might be alright, but a sequal would likely only build up my expectations only to bring them crashing down. This would be a good example of quitting while they're ahead.Irapotato post=9.71344.747485 said:
I hope for the sake of its artistic integrity that Kojima realizes that Metal Gear Solid is done. If there's an MGS5 I just don't see how they'd be able to pull it off.
I'm all in favor, however, of Kojima making an entirely new franchise and getting us attached to a whole new character over the course of three or four games.

I don't really see why people want GTA and GoW to die, they're doing fine, I don't see why you wouldn't want more. Halo should definetly end, I completely blame Halo for all the little kids on xbox live. And I would say Final Fantasy but I'm going to go ahead and widen that to every single JRPG.
Unless They're planning a Mario 4, then I would like to see Mario end, it's been milked to the brink of insanity, sent into space and I think it's time to end. I want more from Donkey Kong and Yoshi.
I really hope they don't bring back Halo.
No more Fifa, please.
But as for GTA and Zelda, I personally love them both and before they end, I want them to make a game that is the best in the series so they go out with a bang, I wish... *bitter smile* Oh and the same for Poke*mon.
*Can someone tell me how to to the accent above the E?

I'd also like to wish for an end to The Sims, if only because I've seen the previews of Sims 3 and damn if the Uncanny Valley hasn't turned into the Uncanny Grand Effing Canyon. Plus, you know it's going to have a buttload of intrusive DRM on it, thereby all but guaranteeing I'm going to pirate it.
Pretty much every game series that has more than five installments.
And I'd like to see Silent Hill put to sleep gently rather than flogged like a dying mule. Hand it over to a great fiction writer or something, but please... Origins and Homecoming? Just. No.
