Screwattack's Top 10 Franchises that Should Die

[Olls]

Is it just me or does ScrewAttack basically make all their Top Ten lists of things that are "Bad" or "Worst of?" or "Should never exist"? So much negativity!

Nah, they even have a top 20 Genesis games vid. It's just not very accurate. Any top list that includes Altered Beast is hard to take serious.
In fact, they have top 10s for most other consoles' games.

Why would any company want to stop selling a full priced game every year in favor of cheaper DLC? It's not like they need to do a great deal of work on the new games very often. Most of them are only marginally improved over the previous year with a changed up roster.

As long as the sheep keep buying it, I don't see them ever stopping this practice. Then again, the last Madden I bought was for the SNES...

[EclecticGroove]

Exactly.
I see the process stopping when the DLC can either be priced high enough to make it worth their while and still maintain sales, or there's enough of a slump or outrage over the yearly rehash that the DLC is the more attractive route.

So basically I don't see it happening for a few years at least.

I agree with them about Final Fantasy. Unfortunately the series is not the same.

10. Angry Birds

I'd have to disagree with this one. With a dynamic game like this there is nearly no end to how many levels you can make with this game. Kind of like Lemmings only less thought process going on with this one.

9. Dynasty Warriors

Agree. The game was basically smash buttons and watch shit happen. It's been this way from day 1.

8. Lego Series

For kids, no. But seeking an audience beyond that is a definite no. Have any of you seen the Lego Star Wars special on Cartoon Network? If you haven't, good.

7. Call of Duty

1, expansion pack, 2 and 4 were good. However since then it just turned into a skill less game. The game kills enemies/human opponents for you. I got no satisfaction from killing someone, I felt like I cheated. If they can move away from this system I'd say I disagree, but they seem to want to keep with this formula. So I agree, get rid of it.

6. Dragonball Z

It's a good fighting game with a wide variety of characters, I disagree.

5. Dance Dance Revolution

Mixed opinion on this one. For the sake of it being a game it isn't bad. But it is the fanbase that is annoying. You ask a chick to play a game with you 90% of the time they will say "DDR". I don't want to play DDR with a chick, I want to sit my ass on a couch and get a little closer to her.

4. Kingdom Hearts

Personally I hated it. I hate 95% of all teenagers and who is the lead character? A teenager, not just any kind of teenager. It's that androgynous teenager that despite having no strength and annoying girly voice gets all the chicks. I'd agree but thats just because I hate the game so much.

3. Madden

New year, new players. It kind of has to keep going. I don't like it, but any football buff will. Keep it going.

2. Final Fantasy

Automatic agree. Final Fantasy is no longer the series people remember. Somehow FF is still running off of the wave 7 made. I feel that the wave is about to crash on the shore sometime soon.

1. Halo

I agree. The story started to get ass by 2. Giant plant monster? Why is that needed? Second ring? Now they are trying to make the series last as long as possible. The action is alright, but play this game and then Bullet Storm. It just feels dated.
