Quake IV definitely killed the series for me. Gone was the ridiculous fast paced everything, hello dark, gritty shooter that was very very bland with a crappy online.

Back to unreal for me!

The peak of the series was definitely Daggerfall and Redguard. It was all downhill when Morrowind came out.

Oblivion 2 is just going to cement the series into total shit.

if down hill means "everything went to eleven on the awesome scale" the your right
other wise you don't know a good game when you see one

I really liked World Tour, the guitars and drums were much better than Rock Band's.

Adding the cymbals was a big step I think, something Rock Band didn't even attempt as far as I remember hearing, Rock Band was a disappointment and World Tour really made up for it. Better sound track too.

You got that all backwards bro.

Not at all actually, I felt it was a much more solid game, looked a lot nicer too. The only thing Rock Band beat World Tour in was the creating characters.
You can make your own songs in World Tour, and there are a lot more songs on that game than the first Rock Band game had. Rock Band also looked like shit, I hated the way they did it. It was great while it lasted, but once World Tour came around I didn't play Rock Band once.

Holy fuck, when will schmucks accept the fact that everyone has A DIFFERENT OPINION?

I personally don't like the elder scrolls series that much (although I may look into skyrim), does that mean I don't know what a good game is? Does that mean everything I'm playing is a fucking lie? Does that make Portal 2 a bad game because I didn't like oblivion?

Your logic is fucking awful. It's almost as bad as your grammar.

Everything in world tour and up had those lame ass lanky fucks they called characters.

You can make your own songs in World Tour

GHTunes was just some lame ass MIDI gimmick which sucked out the ass, great idea, not done very well.

and there are a lot more songs on that game than the first Rock Band game had.

Quality, not quantity there. And on World Tour, there were like 6 'decent' songs as opposed to RB's god tier setlist, not to mention the mountains of DLC.

Rock Band also looked like shit, I hated the way they did it. It was great while it lasted, but once World Tour came around I didn't play Rock Band once.

Weird, with me it was the other way around.

I'm not. I'm just trying to explain to you how fucked your logic is, and that you need to understand what an opinion is.

I remember Sonic Adventure being really good, though it may just be my nostalgia glasses.

Legaia 2. WHAT THE FUCK!

Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly. I still do not understand how such a successful franchise like Spyro managed to pop out something this bad. There is so many things wrong with this garbage, it raped my chilhood.

Crash Twinsanity: same deal as Spyro, except this one took out all of my faith in humanity and also beat my childhood to death with a lead pipe.

GTA IV: I will welcome your badly written angry fanboy review with open arms. This game was just so boring, the missions were repetitive as hell, most of the characters are unlikeable (ESPECIALLY ROMAN), there aren't many side stuff to do and it's generally not as in depth as San Andreas. Please, Rockstar, tell me why SA had bajilions of side missions, jobs, races, customizable cars and character and an almost limitless freedom but IV didn't.

There are more but they didn't cause nearly as much damage as these three.

Blame the publishers. The game looks like it would of been much better from the information that was given out before it was released, but then the publishers made the developers rush it.

Shame, it could of became a good game.

Well id say Sonic mostley went down hill after SEGA transfered him over to the Gamecube and other nintendo systems...

Dude wtf are you talking about? Oblivion has elves just like every other game in the series.

I actually thought Morrowind was awesome, but I agree that Oblivion made it go pretty downhill since they removed all the good roleplaying content to make it "User friendly", and they ended up making it too simplistic. Skyrim (I assume that's what you mean by Oblivion 2?) is supposed to be a callback to the older games so there's at least some hope :D but you're right that Daggerfall was one of the best. IIRC, that game had a land area the size of England.

Super Mario Sunshine was pretty shitty. But, it didn't ruin the series for good Galaxy came along and made the series good again. I just hated the whole FLUDD mechanic that Sunshine had.

Dragon Age II didn't really ruin the Dragon Age series but it was a rushed mediocre game and ruined it slightly. Thank fuck they didn't actually ruin the games universe too much itself.

Also Spyro: Enter The Dragonfly wasn't that bad...could have been better sure but I reckon the game that came after it was the one that really ruined the series.

Tomb Raider.

The original Playstation game was an instant classic then we got two decent sequels and it's all been downhill from there really. What with bad movie tie ins and even worse sequels. It has really been hard for Tomb Raider to keep up with todays market. I still play them as I am a fan of that type of game but Lara Croft is not a poster girl for games anymore, she needs to realise that the 90s are over and so really is she :(

Duke Nukem Forever.

I disagree, this was an excellent game and the dark atmosphere is what was missing in the series, except for Majora's Mask but that's another story

For me it was already ruined with Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex. I want Naughty Dog to make another Crash Bandicoot game.

What's Oblivion 2?

I guess he means Skyrim, but so far, the game looks great, I will judge it, when it is released.

I don't get the hate for Double Agent. Yes, it was simplified and the levels weren't as good as in the previous games (opting for eye candy and the 'wow' factor instead of good design), but it was still a pretty typical SC experience.

Conviction, on the other hand, spits on everything that was good about Splinter Cell, imo. It was a completely different type of game.

Oh, and the PS2/X-Box version of Double Agent was awesome.

Obviously you've never played it.

Oh fuck off.

Agreed with MGS4. Nobody really appreciated how great MGS2 was, simply because Raiden was a wuss and everyone wanted to be "omfgbadass snake." So Kojima didn't take risks and made MGS3, which was a good game in my opinion, but not as good. When MGS4 came around he pretty much just made a game for the retarded fans.

It sucks because I still remember playing MGS2 as my first PS2 game, at age 12, and I played it every few years from then on. I never really got to understanding the story until my third playthrough, at which point I was hooked. I couldn't wait for MGS3, where Raiden sat at home with his wife and baby while Snake went for Olga's kid. But it was a prequel.

"Okay," I thought, "Maybe one day MGS4 will return where 2 left off." NOPE. MGS4 comes around, suddenly Raiden is a cyborg who got fucked up and saved Olga's daughter (what happened to the big speech Snake gave him at the end of 2?), who spends the majority of the game cooking eggs and trying to be profound or something.

Did not rike it, Kojima... did not rike it at all.

OPINIONS

the latest crash bandicoot games. the ones with those beast things. the first one was allright but the second one ruined the series!

Yet Phantom Hourglass and Spirit were both "Toon" Link games.

EVERY Crash Bandicoot game after naughty dog sold the rights.
