I'd say the most milked franchise is a toss up between Pacman and Tetris.

mario or the sims

just seein those my sims party games ads on the nintendo channel . . .

Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6).  This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.

There's about 70 games with the title 'Final Fantasy', with about 40+ of them released in the last 5 years.

My vote definitely goes to Final Fantasy. At least Mario, Zelda or Pokemon games hide their milking behind some premise of changing up gameplay or involving other people in the fun. Mario Party and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon not withstanding.



Six upcoming games you should look into:

To paraphrase Khuutra:

"A franchise can't be considered overused if it is still good."

thats is not true at all and im surprised Khuutra said that

Well, it was paraphrased, I'm not exactly sure how he said it, but I think it's meaning was that if a game is still good, that means it use hasn't run out. It could have a lot of games, but if it is still quality I doubt it is overused.


This. 

I was in that thread too, and the point that was being made is, if something is still selling, and has a good quality inherent in the game, then it still has a market for it. 

That in itself states, that it is not overused or milked.  A simple synonym to milked or overused is saturated.  Tell me why any of those franchises would be considered saturated if they are still selling good numbers?
