Need For Speed. The game needs an overhaul or they need to just do away with it. It's plain boring now.

Final Fantasy. I like the series but maybe Square should move on. I think the series should go out with a bang, the last instalment being XV or XVI and the story being a huge universe brige of all the series, all the main characters meet.

Nope. I just play the game, think about how it could've been better, and then play another game. Sonic could be amazing if the developers could make it right.

It's really funny how many people want to kill off quality series because they don't happen to enjoy them anymore.

Anyway, I think Need For Speed should be put away if Shift and Turbo both fail to reinvigorate it. Forcing Criterion to work on the series and hoping that will fix everything is not a good idea.

To each their own but personally Im getting tired of the series..... but it seems SE is attempting change with XIII, if they keep the changes rolling and bring something new to each FF I wouldnt mind the series going on for another 10 instalments :P

No, really, I'm serious. It's just ridiculous to say that Mario, Halo, etc. should die when they're still critically-acclaimed and commercially successful series. Why should they be put away if millions of consumers still like what they're getting from the games?

...yeah...no. Just...no. I'd rather see Call of Duty die than have Infinity Ward evolve Call of Duty for the "better" (by "evolve for the "better"" I mean pulling a Banjo-Kazooie Nuts & Bolts). How should it evolve anyway?

Banjo-Kazooie if it goes the Nuts & Bolts route (despite it being a decent game, it felt like a big middle finger after waiting 8 years).

Sonic should REALLY die (he should've died sence Sonic 06...).

For starters they can get rid of the infinitely respawning enemies and upgrade the **** AI.

Well Infinity Ward said that they're going to fix those rather minor problems for Modern Warfare 2. What else should change?

Put Resident Evil out of its misery. The characters are all ridiculous now - how many times is Wesker gonna be the stale bad guy? - and the game lost its soul. Capcom should keep making action games like RE4 and 5, but call them something else AND make another suvival horror series. I'd buy both, but calling these new games "Resident Evil" is no good. Bring back the mansions and teh scary!!!

The Sonic series I think needs to die. I used to be the biggest fan (That's why my picture is only temporary, it's all I had that would fit size wise) but then it just crashed, and I kinda think it needs to stop, or at least take a break, or make a game like Sonic Unleashed, compromised of day levels, maybe even make it 2.5d platforming as well.

Sonic, of course.

As for Halo, it doesn't need to die, just change. ODST looks pretty underwhelming to me, but Reach may surprise us!

Sure. We've seen too many of them. I'm hoping Nintendo tries some new hard core franchise rather than sticking with old ones and putting out casual junk. I've enjoyed most of their games, but they should really try their hand at something new... Do any of their games contain voice acting? Their games were fun when I had the attention span of a cow and enjoyed watching a plumber jump over plants and eat mushrooms. Zelda's still fun, but it feels like I'm playing the same game over and over again. 8 dungeons, get a prize at the end of each one and complete them. Motion plus gives me hope of something more unique to come. I'm one of those who tried getting the wii everyday since launch and finally got it a few months later by going 5 hours before the store opened. Maybe I'm spoiled by better graphics. Hmm...

I kind of agree... but without Nintendo's franchises, there wouldn't be very many new gamers. Their series' are a great starting point for people. Sure we eventually grow out of them but that's what the other platforms are for. :P

I think you guys that are familiar with my posts can guess what I'm going to say:

[spoiler] Ratchet and Clank. This series gives me so much deja vu. Once you've played one, you've played them all. I think Insomniac is capable of putting forth the effort to change it up a bit which is why I won't say that the series should die unconditionally. However, if they keep putting out shameless lazy rehases, I wouldn't mind seeing the franchise atleast take a huge break. [/spoiler]

Well, in the case of Mario, they always change up the formula somewhat and keep things fresh. Super Mario Galaxy is a good example of this.

The spin-offs (like Mario Party)need to die though.

So does anyone else agree that Banjo-Kazooie should be put to sleep if the next B-K game goes on the Nuts & Bolts route?
