Franchises that you feel has had WAY too long of a hiatus?

I won't

There is nothing more time-wasting than to argue with a delusional person.funsohng

What's delusional about Half Life 1 having much better level design that encourages exploration to find some hidden shit, and much more varied, albeit the platforming sucks as does in almost every single first person game, though that's not even close to being as terrifying as the painfully repetitive level design of CE. I'll take the shitty platforming over going through the exact same corridor/hallway/room for hours on end every day of the week.

The gunplay would be around on par, if HL1 didn't have more weapon variety. And the Colt Python Magnum is a slightly better handgun than the gun in CE. It's also better than the shitty gunplay in HL2.

Speaking of devolving elements from 1, the AI is also remarkably well done in HL1 (except for the weird way they turn to face you if you go close to them), far more so than in HL2, and if you count the 'Opposing Force' expansion, that not only shits on any enemy AI from its time, but easily thrumps the AI in a lot FPSs to this day. Sure as hell kills Crysis 2's AI, for example.

I like how you say "for it's time" like FPS have become better.

Yep, gameplay wise most FPS have gone downhill from there. HL2 is still one of the best FPS out there.  Anyone who says HL2 "is an overrated piece of sh*t" has no freaking clue about games

Final Fantasy

Metroid

Pikmin

Street Fighter

CoD

KZ (especially if KZ:SF bombs)

GT

Fable

Elder Scroll

NFS

Tales

Tekken

DoA

Mortal Kombat

too many others to name. I'm tired of companies milking a franchise to death and not creating new IP's to keep gaming fresh.

Guess I read the post wrong. Thought it said, "Which franchise has been going on for too long." It too early over here.

Ok, franchises that need to return include.

Conker

I would love another Bushido Blade or a game like it.

Fear Effecthippiesanta

Jak, Medieval, Crash, 3D Rayman (Don't get me wrong, I love love love Origins/Legends but Rayman 2 is definitely my favorite Rayman game), Bully, Simcity....... yea I'm not counting the new one. I still play Simcity 4 from time to time.

Proper UFO: Enemy Unknown remake (openxcom does not count)

edwardecl

Guess you hated XCOM: EU?

I would like to see a Blood remake as long as the original game comes with it. Soooooooooo many fond memories of that game. I still have the CD around here somewhere.

Half Life 1 >>>>>>>>>>>> Halo: CE, make me argue that.

I'd rather do the vehicle sections of HL2 then play the Library in Halo: CE.

The main shining force series.

Baldur's Gate. 

A PROPER Ultima. Not this EA IOS bollocks.

Dark Forces/Jedi Knight
X-Wing/Tie Fighter
Rogue Squadron

It's been at least three days. Surely they could do a mario based cooking mama rip off or something to cover the drought?

Soul Reaver.

Also halflife.

Metroid (other m doesn't count)TheDidact

I just want Half Life.

I want it to be as good as Half Life 1/Opposing Force/Ravenholm

Not to say the entire Half Life series isn't god-like, but these in particular are the 10/10s of the bunch.

kingdom hearts definately. KH2 was my little brother's favourite game and he was playing it when he was like 6 years old. he's 11 now and still asking me every year if the KH3 has come out yet. i wanna buy it for him already but damn square enix lost their quality this gen. i doubt he will even enjoy it like he used to now.

[QUOTE="TheDidact"]Metroid (other m doesn't count)nintendoboy16

Na metroid games are always in hiatus. I know other M lacked the exploration compared to the others I still think it was a good game.

Burnout

The Unreal franchise.

Unreal 3
Unreal Tournament 4
Mother F*cking Unreal Championship 3

Anything related to Megaman (not counting Battlenetwork or that horrid Starforce)

I feel there's potential for a Castlevania cash in, in the same vein of Megaman 9 and 10.  People will eat it up so fast.  I would, and it was awesome that MM 9 and 10 happened to be awesome games.

Metroid ofc.

Dino Crisis

Chrono series

Lufia

Ogre Battle

Shinobi

More but I can't think atm

Half Life, Chronicles of Riddick, and Rainbow Six
