destroyed franchises.

The Fallout series. I hated Fallout 3 with a passion.

Call Of Duty, loved the 4th one, can't even stand the thought of the game anymore.

What franchise, that you play and so dearly love, has reached an untimely or sad end? my destroyed franchise is definitly fire emblem, loved those games to death. But dear god, shadow dragon on DS, I couldn't even bring myself to play it more then once.genericfoe

^True.. but that does not hand the developer the right to make a sub-par game, no supports, no rescue and it is also SIGNIFICANTLY easier then most other games in the series, also i don't know how, but I prefer the graphical style of the snes/gba games over the pixalated art in SD. /end rant/ sorry, i just...... needed to vent.genericfoe

Call of Duty

Halo

Final Fantasy

Medal of Honor, and Call of Duty. The last Medal of Honor that I loved was European Assault. The last Call of Duty that I loved was COD4.

This really hasn't been getting tht bad but i think Ratchet and Clank is washed up now. I like future tools but after that, no more please.

Medal of Honor, Halo, Call of Duty. I'm really burnt out on all the FPS franchises at the moment. Final Fantasy has been way overdone as well. You'd have to be a seriously committed fan to deny the fact that they've milked the **** out of it.MrSolvo

Spyro. The first 3 games were some of my favorites when I was young, but then I bought Enter the Dragonfly...

I'm gonna go old school and say Ultima.

Ultima VII was a genre defining game that you could see something new in even after playing it several times.

Utima VIII was an arcade game.

Ultima IX .... :cry:

COD seris and almost Halo thanks to the mediocrity of ODST and Halo Wars but redemption has come in the form of REACH.

Rainbow Six, Ghost Recon and Silent Hunter have all been FUBARed.

Final Fantasy. That studio has just totally lost its direction and it wandering around in an absolutely clueless state.

Might and magic series...Man i loved number seven..The last one was suppose to go almost 3d..It was horrid unplayable garbage..They killed a once great fun experience..The dude who said ultima 9 agree with you on that..Wasnt that like one of the first 3d games also..It just was horrible, they made it into a single player experiance an ruin that genre shame..

Call of Duty

Tony Hawk

Guitar hero

(See a trend here? :roll: )

Final Fantasy

Crash Bandicoot. Thank you Radical Entertainment you bastards.

resident evil died after 4, 5 was a joke. I pray they take it back to it's roots. All is not lost though as dead space 1 and 2 are unreal

Well I'll go with what were all thinking and say Sonic. Lets face it, the poor little hedgehog died a death a long long time ago and that's no secret. Pac-man, as awesome as he still is as a character, kind of died a death when they decided to release the Pac-Man World series. The first one was a nice refreshing change but they should have kept that as just a one-off I feel. Other than those two I can't think of much else, possibly Castlevania even though I'm praying it will stay alive for me, it all just depends on whether or not they plan on carrying the games on from the original canon or not, if not then sadly I may have to add that to my list... then cry in a corner somewhere and mourn the death of my favourite franchise for a year or so.AngelBeeps

Sonic's newer games are getting better reviews now so I don't think he's necessarily dead yet.

Ultima, Sonic, Tony Hawk, Guitar Hero. Though to be fair, Sonic has seen a re-emergence especially with Sonic Colours, he may just rise up from the game and become a decent game franchise again.

Shadow Dragon is a remake of FE1. Rescues werent added until FE5, Supports werent added until FE6. The best in the series according to most hardcore Fire Emblem fans is FE4, which had neither rescues or Supports and was also one of the easiest Fire Emblems.

Twisted Metal after 989 took over. It wasn't until Black that the series was on track again.

But I have to agree with Pac Man

Final Fantasy and Crash Bandicoot after the PS1.

Resident Evil.

CoD is completely destroyed, the only thing keeping it going is the name, and it's ignorant fanboys.

**** subjective taste, there is no excuse for such a patheticaly rehashed, milked to death series that does absolutely nothing new. They killed Tony Hawk, they killed Guitar Hero, now because it's become popular, they are doing the same thing with CoD like a damn parasite clutching to it and sucking all it's blood.

It's pathetic beyond anything els, and makes me sick as to how abnormal it is.

Sonic died around 2002, but recently revived with the critically aclaimed Sonic Colors, which i myself played on the Wii. I can honestly tell you that as a gamer that never even had interest in Sonic, it's a good, solid, fun game. It's future doesn't look that bad anymore. If they take Sonic Colors, keep the mechanics, add to it some more, it'll be a good future for Sonic.

Resident Evil, unlike most, I actually liked 4 but 5 was terrible.

I'm tempted to say FF, but they've earned enough credit with me over the years to give them at least one more shot.

Silent Hill has been dead since 3 on the ps2. Also Final Fantasy has been going down hill fast since 10, but I'm not gonna call it dead just yet since Versus looks like it might be good. However, if it turns out like crap then I will probably call the franchise dead at that point.

Final Fantasy is completely dead to me, but what else would you expect from developers who are completely lacking in vision and creativity?

I'm gonna go old school and say Ultima.

Utima VIII was an arcade game.

Ultima IX .... :cry:

Most FPS franchises I used to like was destroyed in the last 5 years: Call of Duty, Medal of Honor, Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six, Operation Flashpoint, Quake, Unreal Tournament...

Resident evil 4 and 5. Nuff said.dakan45

COD it has not changed or innovated since COD4 .SpArKs424

[QUOTE="dakan45"]Resident evil 4 and 5. Nuff said.JustPlainLucas

Really Surprised no body has said Kingdom Hearts seeing as how everyone is tired of the spin-offs. I've even heard people are just completely done with the series since they haven't released KH3. Anyways for me its Spider-Man. I didn't like Web of Shadows or Friends or Foe and Spiderman 3 was Mehh. I"ve yet to play Shattered Dimensions however.

COD, Sonic, Medal of Honor, and C&C.

Sonic isn't technically destroyed anymore. The last sonic game that released has a 78% average on Metacritic.
