Ok guys Im going to compile a list of everyones most wanted video game franchise returns. Obviously their are some rules to follow.

Rules:
-Maximum of 10, ordered 1 through 10 (not required to list all 10 however)
-1st=10 points and 10th=1 point etc.
-Series must have not had a game in the last 5 years (10/10/2009)
-Mobile or Rereleases dont count meaning these franchises are still eligible eg. Final Fantasy Tactics S or Breath of Fire 6 etc.
-Please dont edit your posts, quote it and point out the change you are making

Some examples of what would count as a franchise
-Devil May Cry 2 and DmC: Devil May Cry are the same franchise
-Final Fantasy XIII and Final Fantasy Tactics arent the same
-A franchise can have had just 1 game eg. Jet Force Gemini

However the 2D and 3D games will count as different franchise, for example New Super Mario Bros U and Super Mario Galaxy or Castlevania: Symphony of the Night and Castlevania: Lord of Shadows are different franchises.

Heres an example list

1. ET (10pts)
2. Seaman (9pts)
3. Battletoads (8pts)
4. Banjo Kazooie (7pts)
5. MediEvil (6pts)
6. Final Fantasy Tactics (5pts)
7. Dark Cloud (4pts)
8.F-Zero (3pts)
9.Crash Bandicoot (2pts)
10.Croc (1pt)

Enjoy and feel free to discuss your lists with others. I will add my own list later
