"over milked franchise spewing machine that is enarmored with releasing another another Mairo and Zelda game."
so is the rest of the industry, at least Nintendo try to do changes to those games. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't.
EA SPORTS = every year there is the same game (FIFA, MADDEN, GOLF, NEED FOR SPEED etc..) with MINOR changes. Sounds like a milked franchises to me.
SQUARE = what final fantasy are we up to now? each one only gets worst. Sounds like a milked franchise to me.
ACTIVISION = call of duty games. Since modern warfare nothing much has changed in the franchise. Sounds like a milked franchise to me.
SONY = Gran Turismo, guranteed to be on every Sony platform. Sounds like a milked franchise to me.
MICROSOFT = Halo, another gurantee on each iteration of the xbox. Sounds like a milked franchise to me.
Even when all these franchise get milked to death doesn't mean people don't like the games. A franchise that is milked signifies that there is a big enough audience out there to continue producing the games. Lets face it, no developer will continue making more and more of the same game if each new iteration continues to loose them money.
"The gaming media won't let Sony fall! Sites like IGN just love them to much to let them fail. Plus the core gamer loves the PS brand."
IGN started out as a nintendo site. If SONY start delivering crap, they will shift their focus once again, perhaps to microsoft. There is no media loyalty to SONY.
