Game "Franchises" That Own YOU! What game "franchises" do you always get? For myself, I am a sucker for anything related to Final Fantasy. I don't have Dirge of Cerberus, but I pretty much have every other one. I also almost always buy the latest incarnation of Street Fighter. They have not come out with one for the PS3 yet, but I plan on getting SF4 when it comes out next year. I usually also get a Hot Shots Golf game for whatever new system I have. I got Hot Shots Golf 1 for the PSX, I got one for the PS2, and PSP, and bought Open Tee last year for the PS3. I wish they would hurry up and make a new Tomb Raider game for a next gen console. And I don't mean Anniversary, since that is just a remake of Tomb Raider 1 for the PSX. I will for sure get Starcraft 2 when it comes out. I also end up getting every Neverwinter Nights game that comes out, but I skip the expansion packs. Honorable mentions go to SimCity, and Grandia, although I don't have the early versions like 2000 and the very first Grandia. What video game franchises are "must buys" for you?
Tekken, Soul Calibur, Ratchet & Clank, Burnout, Dynasty Warriors, Mortal Kombat on consoles... Age Of Empires, Civilization, NWN, KOTOR, UFO on the PC...
at one time it was the ultima and space quest games... these days probably legend of zelda... I have every game in the series except the awful cd-i games...
Dang man. FF Tactics is probably the best Final Fantasy made, in terms of story. The gameplay back then was pretty revolutionary too, only being outdone by Tactics Ogre, which it is supposedly based off of. And many people think FF11 is a direct sequel to FF3.
GTA. I like shooting cops and beating hookers to death with baseball bats, but occasionally I'll play some video games when I get the chance.
GTA Series, I have all games but the latest. C&C Series, I own almost all of them including the latest. Hitman Series, I own them all but the first. And I would have mentioned the Sim City franchise, I have followed them all and I have stopped after seeing that abomination called "Sim City Societies".
Usually things that are related to familiar franchises like Indiana Jones, Star Wars and Star Trek (although I have to say for thr latter two I long since lost track). I also always pick up the latest Tomb Raider game.
since everyone has already said most of my favorites i'll just mention the less popular ones Gauntlet Legends Fatal Frame Ace Combat Dynasty Warriors
You say eeesh, but fact is that I don't really play a lot of games so I don't have time to go out there and find whatever's really cool.
It's just that movie games tend to be the WORST ones out there. I guess for the reason you just mentioned...
Silent Hill. Nothing else can simultaneous make me shit my pants and grind my teeth to dust. Except 4... that one sucked in comparison. Ghosts? I mean really, what the hell? Oh and I never played Origins because prequels are gay.
