Sons of Liberty > 1 > Snake Eater
Echoes > 1 > Corruption
Super Mario Sunshine > 64 > Galaxy
Wind Waker > OoT > Twilight Princess (MM is pretty much a spin off of the series)
Street Fighter 3 > Street Fighter 2 > Street Fighter 4 (Street fighter 1 obviously discarded)
Grand Theft Auto 4 > Grand Theft Auto 3 > Grand Theft Auto 5
So in other words, an incredible and original first game that comes out of nowhere. It's completely revolutionary and nobody expects it to be so good.
The super-capable developers then take the first games' mechanics to their logical extreme along with daring and successful experimentation that is a result of their newly given creative freedom. This alienates the 80 % most casual gamers who played the original, along with 100 % of the bandwagoners who only started with the second game.
The third game is a regression towards the most cliched and shallow aspects that entertained the least intelligent and discerning players of the first game. The talented developers aim at a low target and miss even that, and who can blame them for being uninspired? They clearly overestimated the average intelligence of their audience. /v/irgins and redditors explode with rapturous applause.
