Forums - Gaming Discussion - Most solid game franchises

GTA, Batman Arkham, Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros, Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Bayonetta and Monster Hunter, those are the ones off the top of my head.

Reminder that Other M exists.


For me:

Soulsborne (Demon's, Dark, Bloodborne)

Dragon Quest, probably the most solid RPG franchise ever made, it doesn't innovate tho.

Final Fantasy mainline games are all great up until 13, which is just good so it kinda drops a little.

I would love to put Smash but Brawl was really bad.

Mario 2D & 3D

Zelda

Uncharted

Kirby

Infamous

God of War? nope... Ascension exists.

Ratchet & Clank

Sly Cooper

Hopefully ICO/Shadow + The Last Guardian

 

OP is absolutely right about Mario & Luigi RPG tho, even Paper Jam which was kind of filler was still really great.



Halo, CoD, Battlefield, FIFA, Madden, GTA, Gears, Forza, Mario, Zelda, Rainbow Six, maybe Ghost Recon - but it's lost it's way recently.

I don't buy Sony consoles so I have no idea what their big quality games are. Uncharted, I guess?

Metal Gear is officially dead - obviously. Assuming this thread means future titles.



Smash
Fire Emblem
Mario
Pikmin
Pokemon
Starcraft

Ahh, cool, a Morrowind guy. Although I'm a huge Oblivion guy.   But obviously I adore MW too.

You haven't yet played Skyrim?! After 5 years? But then, I know how long backlogs gamers usually have...

I loved Vanquish by Platinum so much, but from the two hours I've only played Metal Gear Revengeance I didn't like it and that made me so disappointed. I just can't get into it and the controls don't feel right. But I should like it, so I have already planned to give it another chance soon.

I know, I know :( 

It's been at the top of my queue forever, but I know it will take like 70 hours, so I keep putting it off. RPGs are killing my backlog.

Oblivion is amazing. I give the slightest edge to Morrowind. That was a really transcendent moment for me, playing that game. It really opened my eyes to what the genre offered. But there's just nothing like wandering around an Elder Scrolls world. It's just...magical.

Fine words Veknoid, fine words.

I especially agree so much with the word transcendent, that's what I have been looking for!

Metal Gear Solid has the word solid in it.

While it is 'filler', it made the RPG series Nintendo missed out on(surprisingly). It made an RPG with the vast amount of characters they rarely use.

 

I'm 5 hours in, and I'm really enjoying it. Dream Team was kind of a let down, as they didn't truly bring the capabilities to full use. So far, Paper jam is using Paper Mario well, and mixes both worlds quite well.

 

Biggest pro is the ability to skip the hold-my-hand tutorials.

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

Kingdom Hearts.Even the spin-offs games are really good.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.
