The simpsons did it at around 2000, so I have nothing further to contribute as I try to distance myself from franchies as much as possible since that happened.

It turns out the whole universe of Warhammer 40,000 is really inside the head of a autistic child with a snow globe

You're not enjoying the current Batman and Robin series? If you haven't read it I'd highly recommend it. Besides it's not like Batman is going to be gone forever. They killed Captain America and he's back now.Frequen-Z said:
OT: The worst thing they can do to a franchise is not know when to quit. For Example: Star Wars prequels. Spider-Man 3. Silent Hill Series.
Continue to dribble out crap just because you can is not a good reason.
When things have a complete end in mind, and know where they are going to end up from day 1, it tends to make much better storytelling than "let's just end everything on a cliffhanger so we can do sequels if we want" type mentality.
Sucker punch making Sly cooper 4 all hardcore. Sorta like what happened with Bomberman Act zero. Either or Sega making Sonic 4 suck hard.
Oh, that's right, he ruined both of them. But I was referring to Star Wars specifically. If franchise murder were a sin, George Lucas would go to the deepest circle of Hell and the very universe would restructure itself to create a length of time longer than eternity for him.AjimboB said:
Max Payne going on hiatus then returning with a baldy man in a vest, still have high hopes though.
The Elder Scrolls 5 could use a NEW LEVELING system...like Fallout 3's or something basic like that.
The developers turning Agent 47 into an environmetalist tofu-eating pacifist and i have to go out into the streets openly making myself look like an idiot and a psychopath carrying "down with..whatever i'm protesting at the moment" signs.
