Ghost Recon - This game works better than pills if you want to go to sleep. Rainbow Six completely kills this series in every department (fun factor, multiplayer, gameplay, etc.).

NBA Live - 2K is king when it comes to basketball games.

50 Cent - Why are they making another one?

Need for Speed - Or atleast take tips from Rockstar and wait a few years on your street racer sequels.

Medal of Honor - CoD won this war EA, give up.

Keep the Rpgs and Mario Kart, cut out the sports though. I mean they're almost out, I guess they could do Mario Polo.

I don't mind everything else, beyond the Party series which needs to die.

Mabye They like the name because it kept there Dreams alive... If you don't know the story to the first FF (Why Square Made it... Not the Story line to the Game) then you wont understand...

Why bother having to come up with a name? Besides the name Final Fantasy will help sell it. If thats the only problem you have with the game then I don't know what to say about it.

Have you played any of the Mario Sports games? Most of them are AA games because they are good. I would almost not play any sports games if not for the Mario Sports games.

Probably the most obvious. Dynasty Warriors. Dynasty Warriors 6 is the same thing as dynasty warriors 2 except.. maybe 10 more people onscreen at once.

No I have not gotten it...But I may pick it up soon. Not sure which system I will get it on if I get it. I wish Gamespot still did their best system pick. I would like to wait for a Mario Tennis at least I know what to expect and know it will be good.

It was an example, don't know whether you understood that or not. Even so what does the name have to do with a game? If the game is good who cares what they call it.

Destroy All Humans has run through a lot of games for something that came out in 2005. They don't have Pandemic developing them any more and it wasn't a series built to last anyways. I have this strange feeling that this is going to devolve into some Army Men level mediocre franchise whoring.

I don't understand why people are always so against the Mario spin-offs. The fact is that they're almost always good quality games. On top of that, they give a nice arsenal of abilities and powers, that you'll expect in a Mario game, which would just make you say "WTF?" in another game.

I think it more less people who have never played the games. Who think it "cool" to hate on a Mario game. Because they are too old and too cool to play a cartoon looking sports game. Anyone who thinks they should stop making A-AAA games just because it has Mario in it is crazy. Heck Mario Tennis was a 8.9 that would be a AAA game if done with today's rating system. Mario sports games are the best sports games on the market IMO.
