Are Certain Franchises to Big to die off?(Gran Turismo, Mario, and Halo)

I think it takes a certain degree of mismanagement.

Story-driven franchises are also more at risk if the writing becomes stale and forced. Gears of War and Uncharted are two that I don't think will last much longer, at least not without a hiatus which would allow them to come back fresh.
