Forums - Gaming - Franchises you used to get excited for but don't anymore...

Dead or Alive and Resident Evil



Around the Network

Assassin's Creed
Crash Bandicoot (unless it went back to Sony)
Ratchet & Clank



i feel lucky, there is no franchise i love that makes bad games now. although there are dead franchises i wish they brought back



Final Fantasy - it has really fallen from grace, i used to get excited for this franchise because before the 12th game(not including the Online one) they had not made a bad main series game in my opinion.
I bought FF12 because i expected a good game, what i got was a very polished, but ultimately boring game that was not for me.
FF13 put the nail in the coffin as far as me getting excited for new games in this franchise.

I am still excited at the prospect of posssible remakes and HD remasters of the old games in the series, i can't wait for the HD remaster of FFX/FFX-2, and i am still holding out for a remake of the games from FF5 up to FF9(that is if they just do a graphical update and fix bugs, no touching the core game mechanics).

This!



Around the Network

GTA, Prince of Persia, Gears of War, Assassin's Creed



Final Fantasy and Gran Turismo. Yeah, that was a long time ago.



final fantasy
halo
battlefield
call of duty
saints row
gears of war



I got excited about Call of Duty when they were doing games in the WW2 theme so I haven't been excited since Call of Duty 3, of course bought WaW as well.
Crash is a long dead franchise for me.
And I'm not really excited for MGS5 even though I loved MGS4, the franchise lost some of its magic for me.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Mario Kart
- loved SMK, played MK64 during the whole N64 era, played the hell out of MKDD getting WRs and being #1 tournament player in my country
- MKW was a let down, MK7 got boring really fast
- not hyped for MKU

Super Smash Bros.
- pretty much the same as Mario Kart above, just quicker (N64-Wii instead of SNES-3DS) and without being actually good at it lol
