Nintendo: All The Wii bullshit like Wii Fit and Wii Party
Sony: Gran Turismo
MS: Fable
Other: Call of Duty of course! Kill it with fire!

I agree, Wii Fit seems to be a continuing cash grab.  Oddly, my kids seem to love the party games.



It is near the end of the end....

They are kids, of course they love those games! It makes perfect sense!

Blizzard could kill WoW already and start making Warcraft 4, i don't want "warcraft" killed just the MMO and bring some fresh air like Warcraft 3:)



Sony - Uncharted (after the next) ; God of War (On greece at least, and with Kratos);

MS - Fable; Gears of War

Nintendo - Wii Ware



Killzone: Sony's series is too inconsistent in what direction it wants to go in. Each game also plays far different than what you would expect in the same series. Time to let this one die and move on to a new FPS IP entirely. One that has a central gameplay concept that will stick and a story that has upward progression.

Fable: Xbox's inspired RPG series but never really reached greatness. It should be put down

Mario: For the love of god let this series die in peace. WAY too many entries, they are out of fresh concepts (I'm sorry but SMG,SM3dWorld and NSMB are not reinventions of the series but actually further duplicates). Nintendo has depended on this series for FAR too long. Time for something fresh and new.

I wouldn't kill any series because people enjoy them, big ones from each I care nothing about.

PlayStation - Gran Turismo (I am not a car guy and so many other series I like from Sony)
Xbox - Halo (because Gears of War makes my wife happy)
Nintendo - Wii Sports (I want Earthbound...and Star Fox...and Metroid)


If you ever get divorced from your wife, drop me a line



Nintendo: New Super Mario Bros. I've always hated the name and all games are literally the exact same game (same setting, enemies, gameplay, everything). The added multiplayer was nice but NSMB 2 and U showed that the series ran its course.

Microsoft: Kinect. Kinectimals, Kinect Sports, Kinect Adventures, Kinect Rush, Kinect Star Wars....all has to stop. It's embarrassing.

Sony: Be honest, all their franchises die at some point early on. They barely last a generation. But if I have to pick one, God of War. 6 games in 8 years and they are pretty much the exact same game. 3 different collections for the franchise....really? And Ascension showed that there is nowhere to go but down. I've had fun with it but I think it's time for it to die.



Kind of an unofficial tally of what people want to END:
Mario games = 11
Gears = 9
Halo = 17
God of War = 11
Killzone = 23
Fable = 11

There were 1-3 votes for a number of other titles...

Halo

Just a terrible franchise. Boring, dull, repetitive in every single sense. Plagued by terrible design.

Plus it's design mistakes, because of it's popularity, have echoed down through most FPSs since; only 2 weapons permitted, recharging health, auto-aim.

Not only should Halo be killed, it should be torn from history itself, so it never in fact existed.

...

I dislike Halo, is what I'm trying to say.


I'd also kill Final Fantasy, because it's a bad series of non-games, but not to the extent that I want to annihilate Halo from the history books.

Seriously, fuck that game.

I am not sure I understood what you said, are you trying to say you don't like Halo?
