I guess since 4 was the most recent previous generation game. Really they all kind of suck in their own way except for 4. All the main, numbered entries at least.
Assassin's Creed
Mass Effect
Dragon Age
And a bunch more I'm sure
First post seems pretty representative of neoGAF as a whole, recently. It's annoying too, because I actually still like gaming.
Pretty much any fighting game
Indeed. And Devil May Cry.Resident Evil
Final Fantasy
Silent Hill
Kingdom Hearts
Zelda
All my favorite franchises basically.

Damn this generation was horrible, the worst moments of gaming I ever saw.
Final Fantasy
Resident Evil
Pretty much any fighting game
Halo, Gears of War, Final Fantasy, Resident Evil, Megaman, Call of Duty, Counter Strike, Civilization, Devil May Cry, Bioshock, Dragon Age.
Is the hate for how FF has gone just a western thing, or are the Japanese fans just as disappointed as most of us seem to be? Because I keep thinking "Well, at least once the whole XIII thing is done and out their system, there's a chance" but if it's just as popular over there, I doubt they'll have much motivation? How did xiii-2 sell in comparison to previous games? This is the first time in a long time I've even gave the FF series some consideration haha.
Title says it all. What game franchises in your opinion have took a turn for the worse this gen? Off the top of my head resident evil and final fantasy for me.
Final Fantasy
Final Fantasy. There's really no contest. Other franchises already started their decline in the past gen but Final Fantasy.. LOL :/
Final Fantasy and Resident Evil are the two easiest answers.
Resident Evil
Final Fantasy
Silent Hill
Kingdom Hearts
Zelda
All my favorite franchises basically.
Final Fantasy started its downhill ride at the middle/end of last gen. Big ones to me this gen would be, Street Fighter, Resident Evil, Bionic Commando, and Castlevania off the top of my head. I'll need to think about others, though on the flip side a bunch of other Franchises have improved a lot this gen.
This one wins by a country mile, if you ask me. I bought a PS3 in large part out of excitement for FFXIII and I ended up never even picking the game up... It's only gotten worse since.
Final Fantasy
Grand Theft Auto (still a chance for redemption though)
Metal Gear Solid
Hitman
Splinter Cell
Elder Scrolls
Fallout (redeemed through New Vegas)
That's all I want to list for now. It's depressing to re-live so many painful memories.
Yea, Final Fantasy. Previously a system seller for me.
yeahI just miss the magic of the past.
Final Fantasy.
Resident Evil
Silent Hill
Pro Evolution Soccer
Metal Gear Solid
Final Fantasy
Basically 5 of my favourite franchises going into this gen and they're all dog shit now (possible exception of MGS which I will still buy, play and hopefully enjoy with Ground Zeroes)
Final Fantasy. We went from 12 to... the 13 trilogy ;~;
Twilight Princess was great but man Skyward Sword was a massive disappointment.
FF wins hands down
Final Fantasy just because the plummet between FF12 and 13 is almost unreal
Many of them. Here are some of my favorites.
Final fantasy
Resident evil
Gran Turismo
Metal gear solid
Grand theft auto
And by favorites, I mean the people responsible for this gens games in the above franchises have damaged my childhood irreparably.
That said, they are still solid games for the most part.
Interesting choice, why would you say this?
Pretty much how I feel.
Dragon Quest (IX kind of sucks, and online jp only X...)
Final Fantasy
Super Monkey Ball
Resident Evil
Zelda
Animal Crossing (no NES ROMs?? WTF is this shit?)
Halo
Metroid
I'm going to cry...
Final Fantasy
Resident Evil
Zelda
Or, am I just getting old and jaded?
Final Fantasy
Metal Gear Solid
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater
Final Fantasy - gone from a system seller to an IP I no longer have any interest in.
Final Fantasy
Silent Hill
Resident Evil
Tekken
Final Fantasy
Resident Evil
Pretty much any fighting game
For me i'd have to say:
Final Fantasy
Diablo
Silent Hill
GTA
Red Faction
50 posts on the first page and exactly 25 of them mention Final Fantasy as a franchise that went downhill this gen.FF.
Not much more needs to be said.

I hope SquareEnix is looking and soaking this in. I hope other communities make a thread like this too. If poor sales figures aren't enough, it needs to be hammered home that they are destroying a once beloved franchise.
Bolded all the series that started this generation... They didn't exist during the PS2/GCN/x-box generation and thus couldn't have gotten worse since the last one![]()
