I really have no problem with companies making the same game and milking it for all its worth as long as its good, the unfortunate reality is that many companies don't really know how to milk responsibly.Alot of my fav Franchises are milked to death, any nintendo first party game, MGS, Final Fantasy (although this is floundering a bit), Â The Tales games, Elder scrolls, GTA.These are examples of good milkage.
Bad  milkage is COD, Assasins creed. They are milking these "cows until blood is coming out the udders.Â

Things work a bit differently in the delusional depths of a cow mind...
I'm a manticore. If you are not firmly polishing the actively excreting hole of the XBox swimmingly with flourish, believe me, they will find a way of painting you as a Cow. Post-2009 Lemmings are more Die-hard than Bruce Willis's IMDB.[QUOTE="ActicEdge"] super Mario galaxy stuffvashkeyI'm just now starting to play Galaxy 2 but I honestly preferred the adventurey feel of the first one.
Yeah understandable. I know a lot of people feel that way. By the end of the 3rd World I knew I liked the 2nd game much more than the first.
I wouldn't say fatigue.
I just can't justife paying the asking prices for most 3DS games. I really want to get Mario and a few others.Â
Call of Duty, Gears of War, And Halo.. Well only Sh*t halo that has been becoming out after Halo 3, which was the last great halo game. Which I could still play and have tons of fun with to this day...
Unless they get it right and make it an arena shooter again I'm not interested anymore.Â
Assassin's Creed - AC3 wasn't very good, and AC4 doesn't look that promising.
CoD. Loved the first Modern Warfare, everything since has been meh at best. Probably because I am not a big online gamer.
King's Bounty: Couldn't get into them.
Gothic and Risen: Gothic 3 & 4 never happened, and Risen 1 and 2 were mediocore at best compared to Night of the Raven.
Fallout: New Vegas was a masterpiece, Bethesda can't ever hope to top that, especially after the third game was so bad.
Disciples: It really pisses me off how the company who got 3 managed to screw it up so bad. Even Disciples: Reincarnation doesn't hold a candle to 2.
Total War: I used to love these games, can't get into them at all now. Empire was garbage on the whole and Shogun 2 wasn't much better.
Eschalon: If you are going to make an RPG 'old school', MAKE IT WITH THE GOOD PARTS. These games take everything I hate about older RPGs and mixes it into a terrible package.
Zelda - Nintendo is content with sticking with the same formula. I've had enough.
Gears of War - The third one was enough. Should have ended there.
God of War - There's nothing more you can do with the formula.
Zelda - Nintendo is content with sticking with the same formula. I've had enough.sammyjenkis898You can fault Skyward Sword for alot of things but it sticking to close to the Zelda formula isn't one of them. Infact it's the opposite
Resident Evil - Franchise is a mess now, so sad.
Diablo - Diablo 2 is one of the greatest games of all-time. How they could go from that to the fiasco that is D3 is a crime against video games.
Silent Hill: It's over. Downpour was terrible and a step down from Homecoming, IMO. No more please.
gears of war.
Halo.
Bioshock.
I think that's it.
I still hold out hope that the Diablo IP get's sold and that resident evil receives a proper restart.
I can't trust blizzard anymore, not too big a fan of starcraft or their star MMO. They have nothing for me.
[QUOTE="charizard1605"]Assassin's Creed Call of Duty The Legend of Zelda (presuming quality to be like Spirit Tracks and Skyward Sword, instead of like Wind Waker or Twilight Princess) God of War (presuming no changes are made to the formula) Fable Halo (presuming 343 cannot get their act together) Ratchet and Clank (because Sony has no f*cking clue what to do with it anymore) The sad part is, I'll probably end up buying the next installments in all of these franchises, on or around day one.

343i is fixing Halo 4's MP slowly.They also have a couple of the pro players helping them or working for them(Bravo and Quinn).
They can't fix it. Halo reach was a disaster and had a huge backlash but 343 didn't even address the issues halo FANS had with it. They would rather make a game that appeals to cod players so they make halo FANS hate the game and people that enjoy cod pick up black ops 2 a couple of months later and ditch halo, while the halo FANS are left with an awful gameI'm just now starting to play Galaxy 2 but I honestly preferred the adventurey feel of the first one.[QUOTE="vashkey"][QUOTE="ActicEdge"] super Mario galaxy stuffActicEdge

I think it took me to World 5 to officially give it to Galaxy 2, at which point I had wondered why I gave it to the first game at all. Both are glorious masterpieces thoughMario (Minus Mario Kart)

They were also trying to build a game that felt like a halo game(halo 4 still feels like a halo game even with all the cod additions  and removed modes/features), but bring new things into the game. Time restraints and development issues prevented them from created the halo game they wanted to create. 343i thinks they can do better. They game is good/great, but it can be better. The best thing 343i can do now is try to please all parts of the halo fanbase as much as possible and they are slowly doing that.They can use what they learned from the halo fanbases complaints about halo 4 t omake  halo 5 great. 343i needs their fans to help them during this process.

They really wrecked the Diablo franchise with this newest one.. I don't know what they were thinking.. I don't even care about the RMAH, because it can be completely ignored and Diablo 2 had similar problems to begin with.. It was just the sheer disregard of mechanics and over simplification which pretty much destroyed any kind of drive Diablo 2 had to begin with.

Gran Tursimo for me. Till PD stops Porting Standard Cars and make a real complete game. I'm done with them :cry:

Amazing how they pulled it off though, releasing the same mechanics, graphics, characters, design models for most things, and somehow topped the marvelous original. Nintendo just has that magic.Yeah understandable. I know a lot of people feel that way. By the end of the 3rd World I knew I liked the 2nd game much more than the first.

Halo reach was the equivalent of diablo 3. Could you imagine if diablo 4 was even worse than diablo 3 just like halo 4 being even worse than halo reach? I played thousands of halo 2 games and over 10k halo 3 ranked matches and the only thing that could make me play halo again is if halo 2 anniversary has the same online as the original did or halo 5 ditches 99% of the stuff they added to halo reach and 4Please Log In to post.
