Biggest jump from success to failure...FFX-2. Terrible game.

It definitely didn't fail sales-wise. As for the game itself, it wasn't bad, just different from people's expectations.

I agree. I loved FFX-2, and I still think it has the best battle system of all FFs.

Well, from my knowledge Tomb Raider emo (or whatever the hell it was called) is the only game that completely destroyed a super popular video game series.

You mean Tomb Raider (6) The Angel of Darkness ?

(Chronicles was also very dissapointing)

Yup, that's it.

Although I guess you could blame Eidos for destroying it in more than one way ( endless game sequels, bad movies, and so on)

 

But the new games have been good from what i've heard, they just don't have that US fanbase to sell very well in the states. I think with the recent games that could change eventually, but not soon.

It used to be popular in the United States but Angel of Darkness soured the experience for a lot of the fanbase.

Many will not agree with me, but I feel FFVII destroyed FF for me (this opinion will only be shared by older SNES gamers).


Oh, I'll agree with you on this one. FF7 severely reduced my interest in anything with the Final Fantasy name.

However, I'll chime in with another vote for Chrono Cross. It was supposed to be the sequel to Trigger (one of the best games ever), and instead slaps us in the face with what they did to the old characters.

I haven't played Chrono Cross, so out of curiosity, what did they do to the old characters?
