Keep or Bin
-
Here's a game for y'all to play. The following is a list of game franchises you simply have to bin one and keep one-but which ones do you decide should remain and which would you throw away? Let's find out. The options are:
GTA OR RED DEAD
DARK SOULS OR THE LEGEND OF ZELDA
RESIDENT EVIL OR SILENT HILL
DONKEY KONG OR KIRBY
UNCHARTED OR THE LAST OF US
RATCHET & CLANK OR JAK & DAXTER
SUPER MARIO OR HALO
BORDERLANDS OR DESTINY
THE ELDER SCROLLS OR FALLOUT
FINAL FANTASY OR PERSONA
-
GTA
THE LEGEND OF ZELDA
SILENT HILL
DONKEY KONG
UNCHARTED
JAK & DAXTER
SUPER MARIO
BORDERLANDS
FALLOUT
FINAL FANTASYFor Silent Hill I'm kind of having to ignore the current quality of the series.

The Legend of Zelda
Resident Evil
Kirby
Uncharted
R&C

GTA easy. There's just too much legacy and expectation there.
The Legend of Zelda because Dark Souls has done its job but they've gotten stale at this point.
Silent Hill because Resident Evil feels like it has done everything it could.
Kirby. There's no replacement for Kirby. Will miss Donkey Kong though.
Can I bin them both and have Donkey Kong back? No? I'll take post Nathan Drake Uncharted then.
Ratchet & Clank. Easiest one on the list honestly.
Super Mario. Halo is conceptually great but the people who made it great moved on, and it hasn't been the same.
Destiny because they're the Halo people and stopping Borderlands is a pleasure.
Fallout both because I prefer it and think it has a more unique setting in games and I also want to stop the Skyrim menace.
Final Fantasy, because SMT will still go on even if Persona is finished. Also 5 would be a good swan song for Persona.

@dipset No it's just a game that I thought we could play is all. I think we could do with making more games on the forum just like we see on the EZA podcast and Q&A. I'm not good at making games so seeing what you guys come up if you decide to make a game would be great.
-
I'm keeping
GTA
THE LEGEND OF ZELDA
RESIDENT EVIL
KIRBY
UNCHARTED
JAK & DAXTER
SUPER MARIO
BORDERLANDS
FALLOUT
FINAL FANTASYThis was fun to think through. Naughty Dog's gems were the most difficult decision.

Oh I know. I was being facetious because this really wasn't a kill your babies scenario for me.
I'll add a few for people:
KEEP OR BIN
TONY HAWK OR SKATE
DEAD RISING OR LEFT FOR DEAD
GOD OF WAR OR DMC
SPLINTER CELL OR HITMAN
-
@dipset You've just gone ahead and made some tough ones so kudos to you-as for my picks:
SKATE (damn this was hard but then I thought it would be better to get rid of Tony Hawk when RIDE and SHRED are in the series)
DEAD RISING
GOD OF WAR
HITMAN
-
@dipset said:
kill your babies
I see it as different than kill your babies, because you're not erasing them from existence. The old ones still exist. They're just not making new ones, which changes answers for some options.
Tony Hawk, but only because I've never played Skate, so I don't know what I'm missing. Could be totally off.
I love Left4Dead, but Dead Rising is one of those franchises that no matter how bad they get I always am craving more.
This one is painful, but I think I'm going with God of War. Bayonetta exists to ease the loss of Devil May Cry at least.
Keeping Hitman, because even if we kept Splinter Cell, they wouldn't make real new entries.

TONY HAWK
DEAD RISING
GOD OF WAR
HITMANThe last one's the tricky one, because I think the OG Splinter Cell trilogy is pretty superb. (And Double Agent, too.) But Hitman just keeps on giving pure fun.
-
This one is more tough for me but I’ll go:
SKATE (only because I think there is more untapped potential, TH has untapped potential too but Activision won’t find it)
DEAD RISING
GOD OF WAR (DMC is great, just not evolving as much)
HITMAN (Hitman had its dark times but seems to be evolving. Splinter Cell, who knows).
