Anything Square Enix makes, starting with Final Fantasy because there's nothing final in it. And then there's stuff like Bravely Default, and Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, which seem to make little sense.

Final Fantasy because it was the last game they had money to make and if it didn't made the success it had then they would close doors. Then it became a franchise.

I know, but the name has nothing to do with the contents of the games, it's only reflective of the development process and not the games themselves.

Because FF I, II, III, etc aren't sequels to the other games... only FF X-2, XIII-2 and Lightning returns are sequels hence the double numbering

Yes, yes, I understood their logic. Anyway, I think it's kinda dumb to name a game 13-2. And well, Lightning Returns instead of XIII-3 is at least confusing.

Yep dumb, but what can we do

I agree, but the name is kinda fitting since they are always saving earth from one last fantasy

Final Fantasy.. its not the final Fantasy.. there are 15+ games



earthbound it doesn't make any sience why didn't nintendo of us call it mother

alot of japanese games too many too count

zelda is another easy one why isnt it the legend of link

candy crush saga even though it is a bad game it doesn't have a story so why is there saga at the end

yokai watch then why are you not watching them instead of fighting them

final fantasy it has sequels so wh is it final fantasy



Super acrobatic robot Ninja mutants battle cars or whatever the fuck they called it.

It's the game that came before rocket league and was basically the same except nobody gave it a chance because of its name.

Obviously the game hasn't been released yet, but Horizon: Zero Dawn is just about the most bland, generic name I've ever heard. They should have shot for something better seeing as they're putting so darn much work into the game to make it fresh and awesome.



Super Smash Bros for 3DS and Wii U

the name is too long, even Smash Rumble would be better than not bothering at all :/

It's Zelda's legend that you're learning about, it's her story.  The controllable character is simply the players "link" to the world.

A watch is also something you wear.
