C&C, all titles except C&C4. I'll never understand why they threw out what was standard C&C gameplay instead of perfecting it as a worthy sendoff to such a series.

Dawn of War, though some love is lost again for the change from base-building to unit spamming.

Call of Duty I stopped following after CoD4, which is the title I prefer to remember Infinityward for.

Gran Turismo is one series that manages to improve from the previous title in every way.

One that's been a bit up and down is Devil May Cry, with 2 & 4 seeming a bit subpar to me. Maybe they just don't like even numbers.

Grand Theft Auto. Still remember the squashing sound the poor little sprite blokes made when you ran them over in GTA1, and stealing Cossies to sell at the docks. 4 was a bit too brown though (apparently brown is realistic.)

That's just about it. I would've said Final Fantasy but I could only join in when it hit the Playstation and am now almost finished playing through the ones that were before my time.

The Infinity Engine rpg's: Baldur's Gate series, Icewind Dale series, and Planescape: Torment.
Five games and four expansions of sheer endless enjoyment.

I wanted to say Bioware in general, but I've never played MDK or that Sonic game (many people forget those exist), and Dragon Age was quite frankly a kick in the balls for me.

Portal, which isn't much of an accomplishment since so far only one game has been released.
Oh and the Left 4 Dead series, but thats only had 2 games.

Yeah, I follow a fair few series. In some cases, I grew up with all of them, in a couple - namely Legend of Zelda and Final Fantasy - I played the first one I could and fell in love with the series, prompting me to buy all the previous ones and then follow the rest of the series religiously.

Call of Duty used to be one of the series close to my heart, but that has been spoiled.
Amen to that.

OT: The Animal Crossing series. But the third broke my heart. Same with the Tony Hawk games until the most recent one.

I haven't missed a single Operation Flashpoint game yet. That being, Operation Flashpoint, ArmA, ArmA II, and all the expansions. I also got Operation Flashpoint 2, but I don't count that as being part of the series, and it was quite disappointing.
Don't take this the wrong way, but....I love you

For me, it all the Halo games....and all Operation Flashpoints
And yes, it was "quite" dissappointing

Oh and Mount&Blade too. Does that count?

Agreed... Operation Flashpoint was a game I can never forget.. I was sad that OF2 wasn't great but OF1 still holds up haha
