ForumsSystem Wars › What game franchises need a change of de ...

System Wars is a one of a kind destination where gamers can discuss, rant, and debate about systems, platforms, handhelds and the games. Not many people survive System Wars. The mightiest system warriors back up their arguments with facts.

Rules are simple:
- Read the Terms of Use and System Wars Survival Guide.
- Must be Level 10 or higher to create topics.
- Keep your discussions around what belongs here: platforms, games, developers, publishers, and stats.
- Don't quote more than one image in your post.
- Do NOT post or bump extremely abusive discussions (adult material/illegal activities/illegal advertising/etc).

What game franchises need a change of developer?

    Kotor should be in the hands of From Software. Harry Potter too.

    ND would do well be The Walking Dead.

    Well technically you're not wrong, but just something else changed. Midways mentality for what they wanted to publish could have dictated what we kept getting out of MK. MK under WB could be a better combo. WB has come up fairly quickly. Arkham City is legit, and picking up Rocksteady was smart. And picking up MK and neatherrealm was a good move considering how well MK9 did, and how well it was received. From what I hear Fear 3 isn't nearly the massive insult that Fear 2 was(although no where near what FEAR 1 was, but hey one step at a time here).

    Final Fantasy besides 13(and I guess X, but f*ck off silvur I liked 10 when I was like 13) has usually been a very good series.

    Well that got run into the ground, and they ran out of ideas. No team change in that case either right? Level 5 could have a different spin on a FF game. Or maybe get back to the core of what a JRPG needs, and less of the fluffy stuff these games get padded with.

    Exactly. Everything would just be...incredible. The latest screen art from their game Destiny just shows how a Battlefront game would look. Not to mention the fact that over a dozen employees from Pandemic now work for Bungie after EA shut down their studio. It's a match made in gaming heaven.

    I just want a JRPG I'll like again. I won't be trying Xenoblade anytime soon until I get a WiiU, and that needs a price cut and a better lineup.

    Already played. I love Persona. I need to play some of his stuff. Never actually played Nocturne or Devil Survivor?(is that him?). I know I need to play Nocturne. It's one of Albrosa's favorites so I assume it must be fantastic.

    Nocturne is such a special game.
    Devil Survivor is more of SRPG.

    Like valkyria? fire emblem? and Final Fantasy tactics? I love that sh1t. Outside of disgea(horse crap on a disc) I dig SRPGs way more than actual RPGs. More so than the western kind also.
