Sony: Killzone, Shadow Fall wasn't bad at all but the series is on decline. I really hope Guerrilla moves into a new IP, Uncharted (I love this series but hopefully ND/Sony kills the franchise after the 4th game)

Nintendo: Wii series (I hope this never existed to begin with), Mario and Sonic, Animal Crossing (I really hate this series), Pokemon since got boring a long time ago and doesn't look like will change.

Not gonna say anything about MS, only tried the first Halo on PC so far and it's pretty good. Want to try Forza.

Killzone and COD



I think there are tons of franchises that haven't really justified sticking around for as long as they do, especially the ones that release really frequently.

CoD would probably have to sit at the top of the list; it's had something like 10 entries in the past 10 years, and the general consensus seems to be that it's well past its prime now. Other multi-platform ones that I think could reasonably be put to rest now are Battlefield, Assassin's Creed, Need for Speed, Metal Gear Solid. Also Elder Scrolls and Final Fantasy; it would be great to see Bethesda and Squenix pour more resources into making new games, even if they stayed within the RPG genre.

Nintendo-exclusive... I think the company's pretty good at keeping most of its franchises reasonably fresh, but I think they could get rid of New Super Mario Bros.. The other games within the Mario universe are generally a lot more creative, and it's not like axing NSMB would leave the console starved for platformers (they've still got the other Mario games, plus Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Kirby and even Rayman). Oh, and I agree that the Mario & Sonic Olympic Games titles could stop.

Sony-exclusive? Gotta be Killzone. I think they could reasonably move on from Uncharted and God of War, too.

Microsoft could stand to ditch some of their shooter franchises, such as Halo and Gears of War. They've got newer ones like Titanfall now, and I'd love to see them get some more core IPs that don't revolve primarily around gunning things down.



HOLA, because, I find it wierd that others find it wierd that a person wouldn't like it and that should be reason enough in a wierd way to make it oddly go too-da-loo.

(not the right pic... I think it's World of Warcraft)

League of Legends, it's twitch tv. How do hundereds of thousand keep watching a person play this game?

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

Indeed. GTA V is good, but seriously, it's the same thing since the very beginning of the franchise.

I followed the hype and bought GTA V Day One, and I have to admit I kinda regret it. 



Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are necessarily right.

Also, The Last Guardian.
