Kill The Series

[Liquid Skin]

Ah ok, well it seemed like you inferred it by replying to my post and then slating XII.

Meh, whatever.

The Getaway series needs to die, its a shoddy copy of a worn out series.

Crash and Spyro - after Naughty Dog and Insomniac lost interest and stopped developing them, they got worse. No-one over ten really cares for the games anymore.

 

[Lupus]

Sonic the Hedgehog - after Sonic Team developed Sonic Adventure, they got worse. No-one who's mildly intelligent bothers with them anymore.

I agree. Though the Seven Rings stuff looks like it MAY be going back in the right direction, plus people who want Sonic in Brawl need to be burned at the stake.

Pokemon - Why? Cause the cow was milked long ago & has now been slaughtered and Barbequeed

Final Fantasy - It Has Become somewhat of a religion & the Fan base is semi idiotic

Crash bandicoot - That damn Bandicoot was good in the first game & in the Second but was crap after

FIFA - If they want to copy PES why don't they just do a joint game, Kanomai & EA Unite and have an excellent game

I'd like to see the Kingdom Hearts series disappear.

Now I know it's only, what, 3 games so far?

But there's the final mixes for 1&2, and then that remake for chains of memories for the PS2 (Is that right?) also, that are simply...remakes.
And it's just sequals, unlike most Final Fantasy's which are, a somewhat different story, different universe.

Of course this could just be my biased opinion on that I really don't like Kingdom Hearts, and there have been enough games.

Based on your excuse I think it may be a little biased. Nearly all games are guilty of being direct sequels so you can't really hold it against Kingdom Hearts for making sequels.

As for Final Mix, I can't argue with that because they didn't even bother release those in the UK, but Chain of Memories being released on the PS2 was a good idea, I never understood why they released it on the GameBoy to begin with. Chain of Memories helps cover the gap between KH1 and KH2, but it should have come out on the PS2 all along.

I didn't say that =P get your quotes right.
I don't see why everyone hated SA2 so much. The Sonic/Shadow levels alone were addictive enough to make it a good game (though I admit the Tails/Robotnik levels were crap), the music was great, and the plot was quite good for a platformer. I'd say Sonic Heroes was where the series began to lose it, and then they tried to milk the Shadow fanbase of 10 year olds, they did the same to Knuckles back when he was the token angst character. This all led to STH 360 and then SEGA realised something should be done. I wonder what form the next "main" title will take...

Sorry for my Sonic lecture. I'm like that.

Doom, Unreal Tournament, Unreal, and generally most 1st person shooter series. Why? They have little in the way of gameplay and re playability and all they generally do is push up the specs needed for your PC. Compare them to 1/2life or Bioshock. That is the direction FPS should be going.
Also C&C, wghile the first was definitely ground breaking, every one after than has been pretty much the same game with prettier graphics and more laughable cut scenes. Like wise if you play Company of Hero's C&C looks so hideous you never would want go back.

Metal Gear Solid, i just think it got stupid after the 1st game (PS1) which was perfect for me.
The 2nd was okay but they shouldn't have brought a new Ninja in, and i personally thought it got too far fetched with the inclusion of Vamp, not 100% sure if he was actually a vampire (if he was thats bad enough) but surviving a shot to the head grrr.
Metal Gear 3 - A guy who can control bees with his hand, says enough really.
MGS4 - i love what i'm seeing so far i'd love to know the ending to the story but not enough to warrant me buying a PS3 for.

I just loved the storyline to MGS so much in my opinion it just got too farfetched and believable so i gave up on it.

Sonic the Hedgehog - kinda never liked it since it went 3d but i'd never want to kill the series because Sonic is an icon of a lost generation of games and my childhood. Plus kids love him and if they love the games i'd like to see them come out, i just won't touch them personally. I'll always love Sonic.

Just in case you wasn't aware, Vamp is back in MGS4 along with some of the bosses from the original Metal Gear Solid. You'll be fighting 'revived' versions of Sniper Wolf, Psycho Mantis, Vulcan Raven and Decoy Octopus in MGS4.

Anyway Seeing as every other decent game has jumped ship from the Playstation to the 360 & wii its only a matter of time till we hear MGS4 has jumped

WTF!!!!!!
You serious?
That's ridiculous, how the hell will they bring them back?
If thats true it can **** right off lol
I'm not touching it.

Didn't you see the E3 trailer? Vamp fights Raiden or some crap. ;/

I highly doubt it, if you're going by that logic shouldnt Halo have jumped ship to PS2 since its outselling all the other consoles - next or current gen? It won't jump to 360 because the 360 is doing so abysmally in Japan and the Wii doesnt have the graphical power/totally different gaming ideology.

Besides i'm pretty sure Hideo is a complete PS fanboy anyway and wouldnt let his baby go to any other system. Oh and the amount of pressure Sony must be putting on him to keep it exclusive for a system seller must be immense as well. I wouldnt be surprised if families were being ransomed.

I wouldnt have thought they'd do something as cheesy as revive the characters (although it is MGS hehe....) more than likely we'll find that they're from a similar branch to FOXHOUND (i think that was the name of the organisation in MGS1) or something.

Besides i've got no problems with that, the bosses from MGS were amazing, easily beat the ones from MGS2 aside from Fortune, she was a damn cool character.

I'd love to never hear MSG hype again...I really think they suck. =/

Oh i knew about Vamp, but the others
I thought Kojima was better than rehashing old characters.
Really dissapointed.
Anyone know if it's 100% true that sniper wolf etc are back.
Don't know why i should care lol i'm not going to play it either way, i gave up on the series after 2 and i won't be getting a PS3 anytime soon.

Well in the trailers we've seen a Vamp and a Psycho Mantis lookalike - thats all. The others were someone with tentacles who looked a hellofalot like Dr Octopus, a robotic wolf which cries incessently and a guy with wings that look suspiciously like those from the mass-produced Evas in EOE. He seems to LOVE shouting "Rage, show me your rage!"

Overall im loving the look of it, the amount of detail and things you can do in it is jaw dropping. Say what you like about MGS, the plot is at least "interesting" its no more silly than most other anime/manga plotlines out there. It just likes to go to town on the ol dialogue thats all

I'm gonna have to say kill WoW. I'm so tired of hearing about it - it really is quite terrible. What a repetetive, laggy, short-lived, incredibly basic game. Ok it brought MMOs to the masses but please put the poor thing down. I know MMOs are inherently repetitive but there was just something so bland about that game - EVE at least had some more depth than "this thing has higher number than that thing.....equipped.....i r teh leetxor!"

Oh and i wasnt a fan of the RTSs either - but i was spoilt on Starcraft in my childhood

Plus the whole community made me feel dirty.

Of course this could just be my biased opinion on that I really don't like Kingdom Hearts, and there have been enough games.

Kingdom hears is only meant to be a trilogy(i think, don't hold me to it) so if it is the case, it should end with KH3.

Dynasty warriors, yes has become one series which has just been more of the same over and over and over again, but from what i have seen, at least DW6 is meant to add a couple new elements to it.

Well, it's unfortunate then, that the professionals - the people are paid to think about videogames, and who have played a lot, lot more than you or I - totally disagree with you, isn't it? You know, what with giving FFXII universally high scores? Applauding it as being a positive step forward for RPGs and all. Also, I'm pretty sure the fans disagree too. Because, you see, they've bought over 4 million copies of FFXII worldwide and FFXII merchandise is selling very well. So, I think it's safe to say that most people think you are wrong about FFXII ^_^

i admit, i haven't actually played enough of FFXII to really say much, but i do think that the majority of that is all just opinionated. Chrono said that FFXII was one of the most overrated games HE has seen, so essentially its just his opinion, and i do think that there will be people who will no doubt agree with what he says, probably as many as those that would disagree.

A bit back now.. but there is more than a couple of new features.. The whole game is getting an overhaul. Design own movesets, swimming, climbing ladders, possibly adding online play, etc.

On topic.. GTA is getting boring. FFXII in many ways renewed the series, with a complete change of gameplay.. FFVII should stop, although apparently a 10-year project.
