| a.l.e.x59 said: Okay, my first complaint is Star Fox Adventures. It's nothing like Star Fox 64... At all... Except for the mini games, in between levels, but those were nothing. And then Star Fox Assault (or, Star Fox Insult) was even worse. You would have thought that games with better graphics would be better at everything else. Are developers relying too heavily on graphics? And then, Star Fox Command was even worse. Why can't we have a game that's more similar to Star Fox 64? Console to blame: Gamecube. My second complaint is Sonic. Ever since he went multiplatform, he just sucked. Sonic Heroes, and Shadow the Hedgehog, are two examples of Sonic games, from the last generation, that have been utter let downs. Why can't they stay true to the original formula? Why does Sonic Heroes, jump from being the most kiddish of all Sonic games, to Shadow the Hedgehog, and be the most violent? How hard is it to make a real 3D Sonic game? Why do they keep straying off? And what's with the million characters they have added? Who is Maria? She doesn't belong... At all! Dr. Robotnik (not Eggman; Damn my avatar!) should be the only human. Sonic and Tails should be the only playable characters. Consoles to blame: Gamecube, Xbox, and Playstation 2 Did we ever get a true sequal to Donkey Kong 64? Nope. Instead, we got a bunch of music games. Yaye! What I always wanted instead of Donkey Kong 64 2. And how about Donkey Kong Jungle Beat? At least it's a descent platformer, but it doesn't have Rare's touch, that made the other Donkey Kong games so good! Console to blame: Gamecube. And who could forget Crash Bandicoot? Playstation's mascot. Yes, he was one of the greatest platformers of all time. Some say he was, at the time, Mario, and Sonic's equivilent. All has changed after Naughty Dog sold off the franchise. Seriously, what went wrong? Especially in Twinsanity, and Tag Team Racing. Who is Neena Cortex? She's hidious! And the fact that Crash Bandicoot went multiplatform is just an insult. Even worse, Crash of the Titans, Crash's latest game, isn't going to be released for the Playstation 3, even though Crash Bandicoot grew up on the Playstation. Yeah, that sure shows some respect to Sony. Whatever, it looks like an awful game anyways. Consoles to blame: Gamecube, Xbox, and Playstaton 2 Spyro the Dragon... A franchise that often imitated, but never duplicated, Crash's fame on the Playstation. I will admit, his games were fun, although childish. Ever since the franchise moved to the next generation, his games were abysmal. You can't even burn the sheep anymore. When you try to, you end up talking to them. WTF? Consoles to blame: Gamecube, Xbox, and Playstaton 2 Conker... Good o'l Conker... The only 3D platformer in existence, that was rated M for mature, sold over 1 million copies, and got average reviews of 80% or more. What happened? The exact same thing, that's what happened. Instead of making an entire new game, Rare just made an N64 port, with better graphics, onto the Gamecube. Yaye! I can play the same game, all over again! Console to blame: Xbox Banjo Kazooie. What ever happened to Banjo Kazooie? Nothing, that's what happened. There were two Banjo Kazooie games for the Nintendo 64. Why couldn't Rare make two for the Xbox? We should be getting Banjo Kazooie 5 on the Xbox 360. Did Rare do anything on the Xbox after it was sold to Microsoft? Console to blame: Xbox Pac-Man, one of the best arcade games ever! Although Pac-Man World was a descent game, Pac-Man World 2 wasn't as good, and Pac-Man World 3 was even worse. Well, I guess the yellow guy's glory days belong to the arcade days. Consoles to blame: Gamecube, Xbox, Playstation 2 You think that's it? There's many other franchises that really sucked. Why? I have no idea. I think more franchises have failed in last generation, than any other generation in video game history... Ever! What franchises did you think sucked, and why? |
1. Starfox- Well I never played the one on the gamecube so I have no comment
2. Sonic- The games did go sour. Sonic was more of a 2d game. I dont think these games will ever be good. Since the 3D generation Sega has made some pretty crappy games. In my opinion they are good at 2D games not 3
3. Donkey Kong- I never played the music games but I played the old adventure games and I agree the should bring them back but I bet a lot of people liked his music games as well.
4. Crash Bandicoot- Its not anyones fault but the developers. Crash was one of the best selling games of all time and I never understood why they sold the licensines for that game. Now I do though (atleast I think I do). At the press conference for there new game for the PS3 they talked about how Crash was perfect for the PS1 because he was simple and easy to make. Once the PS2 came around they thought they could do more with the power and make a better game. They made Jak which was arguably better then Crash.
5. Spyro- Well this game was sold too. Once it was sold to a different company it just sucked. This game reminds me of Crash Bandicoot. I think they did the same thing that Naughty Dog did and since they work closely together I wouldnt doubt it.
6. Conker- Im not going to lie conker is my most favorite game of all time. I loved it on the Nintendo 64. When I played it on the Xbox I was dissapointed because some of the jokes got stale but I didnt think the game was that bad.
7. Banjo- Another great game. You cant say it went bad when no new game came out. Microsoft bought Rare and then right away they started on Conker and then moved to the 360. They are currently working on a new one so you cant say this franchise went stale.
8. Pacman- There was no point on making this game 3D. It was never ment for that. It was ment for the arcade and it should have stayed that way.
Anyothers because I would love commenting on them.
