Spyro and Crash, if you ask me. Most games made after their original developers left were mediocre to downright bad. At least Crash seems to have finally been granted his rest though. Meanwhile Spyro's now stuck in Skylanders and he's not even a major character.

I think that could be applied to most of Konami's franchises these days, like Suikoden and Boktai. Seems like these days they just care about Metal Gear. Maybe Silent Hill as well if the new game does well enough.

I don't know how that stuff got so popular. Especially when you pretty much have to buy physical DLC to play additional stuff. Not sure how parents can be fine shelling out so much for the figures, the game itself, and the base you put the figures in.

Also think them tossing Spyro in was just stupid.

Dark Dawn ruined it. It was hand-holdy, had points of no return, you STILL didn't get to fight Alex (who wore a mask the entire game as if players would actually be dumb enough to not recognize the signature long blue hair and megalomaniac scheming tendencies) and ended on a cliffhanger which was actually the big problem you set out to solve from the beginning of the game, but end up sidetracked for the entire fucking playthrough.

I'd swear it was like Camelot didn't even want to make a third entry. I mean, with 1 and 2, they were only a year or so apart and you knew they'd be having to make a second game to tie things up (I've heard it was just the amount of data earlier GBA carts could hold that kept it from all being on one cart). But Dark Dawn came out after six or seven years of hearing nothing about continuing the series.

And yeah, I agree. It's not as if the first two games were devoid of issues, but I found them generally enjoyable. Dark Dawn just amplified the issues already present, while adding shit like points of no return that weren't really in the previous two games.

There were a fuck ton. They were amazing games, especially Sarge's Heroes. It's a huge mind fuck as a kid when you learn you're in the real world and the enemy are getting their super weapons from the kids. And the combat was fun and challenging, so you actually needed some strategy. The multiplayer was also fun as fuck with friends. Too bad it's a dead franchise just because the last one didn't sell well. The only bad part is that the ones that weren't on N64 had janky as fuck controls.

Sega can make and publish some good games, but they can be FUCKING stupid with how they handle them, not doing good print sizes or marketing (Infinite Space as an example; Platinum rightfully bitched about that), withholding localizations for dumb reasons (Shining series), making boneheaded decisions for sequels (general reception to the change in setting and vibe going from Valkyria Chronicles 1 to 2 wasn't too good, at least out here), or never revisiting certain games beyond a port or two (Skies of Arcadia).

It's sad that it wasn't enough for them for DmC to pretty much kill the series (honestly, it was a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation if you ask me; if it sold poorly, the series died with it, if it sold well, we'd have gotten DmC2: Fuck You Boogaloo), but they also had to go out of their way to shit on fans of the older games that rightfully took issue with it.

The Paper Mario series is at the moment consists of a single 9/10 (TTYD), two 6/10s (PM/SPM) and a 5/10 (SS)

It wasn't so much murdered as still born with a fluke.

Saying that, I'm hoping that a Wii U game will restore the series to its RPG styled roots.

The sad thing is Konami couldn't even bother with localizing that PSP pack of Suikoden I and II, or even put II on the PSN. As such, the second game still commands a price tag of $130-150 where I live.

And again, Konami seems quite content to abandon most of their series when they can just focus more on Metal Gear.

TTYD is really more like a 7 or an 8, and the original is a pretty solid 8. Super Paper Mario is definitely a fucking 5, no clue how I made myself beat it when it came out. I tried playing it again after replaying the other two, and I couldn't keep interest past 1-2.

Haven't played SS, but I understand it's held in lower regard than SPM. To me this represents that franchise's death.

How was the newest M&L game, anyway?

It really depends on the series. It's brutally hard for Shinobi because Shinobi was rebooted fucking THREE TIMES and it still couldn't sell enough. What makes it even worse is that two of the three reboots are the best games in the entire series.

Power Stone still has no competition for its gameplay style, so re-releasing it would be SOMETHING.

Plus half of those series ended on cliff hangers for the most part or ambiguous "SEE YOU NEXT GAME" texts. It's not fair, man.

Crytek bought Free Radical to put them to work on a Homefront sequel. Timesplitters may be niche but nobody gave a shit about Homefront. Even the price of the IP from THQ's corpse was piss cheap compared to their other IP's, though that may be because nobody else wanted it.

Recently they sold off Free Radical and the Homefront IP to stay financially alive but refuse to give up the Timesplitters IP DESPITE having no plans to do anything with it.

Crytek is run by morons.

I'd think it's more of a focus on what makes money these days. That's not to say profit wasn't a factor in the past, but I think it's become hard for people to remain creative when they can just, say, release a generic shooter and rake in some easy profit from CoD and battlefield fans, or something. Also trying to appeal to broader, or in some cases, completely different audience (I recall them saying that with DmC they didn't particularly care about the old fanbase anymore)

I'd like to think that some developers are on the side of wanting to create interesting games still, but I figure that if anything it's up to the publishers whether they'll be profitable enough ideas or not. Also the fact that if the game isn't done as a stand alone but ends with a cliffhanger or something, the potential series could easily get canned.

The issues were mainly with the later stuff in Lost Light and Shadow's Edge, though I must say that fight with Samiel was still pretty damn cool.
