Leave Sonic Alone!!!!

As for what I think needs to go:

Disgaea - The SRPG genre would be better for it
Need For Speed - It's dying.... we can all see.... Ok, It's dead... let's be honest. IT'S DEAD
Tony Hawk - Please.... just get rid of it....
Halo - After the first it's been going nowhere fast. Now they will begin to milk it.
Spyro - .... after the exclusive PS1 games.... the series has been nothing but a downhill spiral....

 

Fix'd.

I'm on a roll.

 

My heart suddenly burns with Hatred for you.... Nice Avatar....

 

Thanks and you now know how I felt when you listed Mario.

I agree with need for speed and crash. I'd also add:

- DMC
- Ratchet
- and dynasty warrior.

Why DMC?

 

the question is why DMC and Ratchet

People list out some great games here (Mario, FF, Halo, etc). Just because you don't like the game shouldn't mean the franchise should go - I'm not into Gran Turismo or God of War, I'm not about to list it as a franchise that needs to die.

I think we can at least all agree on something like Need for Speed. Guitar Hero / RB and Call of Duty are being milked pretty badly atm - I don't think they need to die, but they need to tone down on the yearly release BS.

Dear god dont tell me you truly think Halo is some special super console FPS because I hate to tell but Haze is at equal quality of the Halo franchise thats right Halo is a standard run of the mill FPS.

Moving right along...

Final Fantasy.

seriously the first 6 were great, but now its so milked.

sonic, sega kill it, with fire the thing isn't fun anymore.

 Fix'd.

 

Dear God no.  The first 6 were great indeed, but the series didn't really give the player more control until FF7.  Plus the transition to 3D let the player actually see where they were instead of just trying out linear after linear pathway that lead to an onslaught of random battles.  ugh

yes and nomura got in, i never loved a FF char or FF so much til he got in charge on character design (RIKKU!), and no FF have the same story, battle system or soundtrack than previous.

Look at the grin and say that.

@Jo21 Yes, we should appreciate Nomura for BELTS and ZIPPERS. I rather have two-dimensional characters with 3D personality than 3D characters with two-dimensional characters. Also, I argued this before but Pokemon's replayability comes from the battling/trading etc. I probably would have abandoned the franchise if I was solely playing it for the single player experience but that's why the series is a social thing.

As for what I think needs to go:

Mario - Milked, still milking
Need For Speed - It's dying.... we can all see.... Ok, It's dead... let's be honest. IT'S DEAD
Tony Hawk - Please.... just get rid of it....
Halo - After the first it's been going nowhere fast. Now they will begin to milk it.
Spyro - .... after the exclusive PS1 games.... the series has been nothing but a downhill spiral....

 

Wait wait wait wait

 

Sonic doesn't deserve to die BUT Mario does? Am I the only one who finds SO MUCH wrong in that?

Actually, I do. If I had my way, Sonic would be limited to 2D games til Sonic Team can get their act together.

Also, as long as there is a Galaxy every 5 or 6 years, I can live with a Party 8 or Super Sluggers, even though I heard it and Strikers Charged are pretty good.
