>Ape Escape

You posted it. All I wanted was port of 1 and/or 3 and what did I get? 2, the worst game.

>>15333358

Go away retard

>>15333212

Freedom Wars was fucking great, fuck Sony for killing it. I've never played Gravity Rush, but I guess it's too late now?

>>15333212

>Post your favourite dead IP's

Probably better this way, though.

>>15333427

AoE4 coming soon, you do have Windows 10 installed, right goy?

>>15333478

Because they thought it would get them Donkey Kong.

>>15333489

>>15333478

Microsoft didn't buy it, Nintendo sold it. The power of American Jewry insignificant next to the power of Japanese Jewry.

>>15333489

they didn't, an unrelated board member made that comment.

>>15333478

rare always came off as hesitant to constantly reuse the same IP, sort of like a treasure-lite.

>>15333478

That's how Microjew got the monopoly in the first place, underage. They buy all their competition just to kill them. The bigger their marketshare the better for them. Not for us we're getting buttfucked without lube.

Is Kunio-kun even dead?

>>15333234

Why did Nintendo even kill this series? I swear they're fucking retarded.

>>15333252

Hunt Down the Freeman just came out, though

>>15333212

How are the first 3 a dead ip though?

>>15333427

>>15333520

Dead Franchise != Feces dipped skeleton marionette franchise. Anyway I blame the overly long copyright terms, they need to be short enough to prevent too many bad sequels.

>>15333427

I'd give anything for another good prince of persia, but fuck ubisoft

>>15333580

considering all the mythical stuff ubisoft is injecting into assassin's creed and the fact that the antiquity reboots have next to nothing to do with assassin's and templars it wouldn't surprise me if ubisoft called the next game assassin's creed: prince of persia

>>15333524

The last one on the Gamecube cost a ton of money to develop and then didn't even break the system's top 40 in sales.

>>15333599

WE WUZ PERSIANS AND SHEIT

>>15333673

It wasn't censored you faggot. There are plenty of underboob and pantry shots in the game.

>>15333699

The even ruined some moves and game balance removing frames

>>15333609

>Fully playable

You can't get the costumes any more

>>15333212

I have never played ape escape before. which should i play first? should i play 1 - 2 - 3? or skip the 1st? skip the 3rd? skip the 2nd? play only 1? play only 2? play only 3? etc.

Splinter Cell and Thief.

>>15333615

I thought I was done hurting for the day. Goddamn it.

>>15333814

Play all 3, 1 and 3 are the best ones.

>>15333858

ok, i'll give 1 a shot.

what was the problem with 2?

>>15333866

There is non. It's just that 3 and 1 are so much better. Especially 3 it even has a Metal Gear minigame.

>>15333673

Whatever happened to their Valkyrie Profile clone, did that ever came out? Last thing I heard was them removing the only white characters after they reached their donation goal for some reason.

>>15333212

Super Monkey Ball

>>15333966

What are you talking about, I bought GP Legend physically, here in europe back when it came out

>>15333966

Oh wait, checking again, apparently its just climax which explains the why GP was the virtual console choice as it was released in the west.

For some reason i thought it was both that got fucked.

>>15333973

For some reason i forgot it got a western release.

My mistake.

>>15333932

Every game after Super Monkey Ball 2 was awful

Freedome Wars was such hot fucking trash, it was a hunting clone with some the most terribly designed enemies I have ever seen. Not even going into how fucking clunky the combat was or the horrifying gear system.

>>15333744

still fully playable. If you cared enough you would have played it already. If not you can blame yourself for killing it.

Gravity Rush isn't dead either, OP is just sensationalizing to push an agenda with loaded phrases. The truth is the director never saw any massive success with his games at Sony, and always made unusual games. GR1 almost got made for the PS3, then almost didn't get made for the PS3, then almost got made for the PSP, then almost got made for the PS3 again until finally making its way onto the Vita. Then made it back to consoles after being a flop for that much time and money and still somehow got a full sequel that was basically 4 times the game. Sony made plenty of mistakes handling the IP but it wasn't killed, the director is already moving on and that's probably the best way to make games. Games that end up getting 20 sequels usually end up not being good and losing what might have made them good in the first place, or wearing out their welcome and ultimately losing their identity.

Even some games which saw a handful of installments like Stalker already had their identity heavily compromised by the second and third games. It's best to make something, maybe reiterate once or twice, and then move on. Shadow of the Colossus 2 might be cool, but Shadow of the Colossus 5 sure would hurt the impact of the other games.

timesplitters might be coming back

>>15335338

>Thinks Fatal Fury IP is dead.

Anon. The tournament in the Fatal Fury games is called guess what? King of Fighters. That IP is still going strong. Its sequels are just not called Fatal Fury anymore.

Didn't Sony America fuck up the US version of Freedom Wars?

>>15335367

The king of fighters series was born as a "all SNK franchises in one" game.

It's like as if Capcom stopped making Street Fighter games to make only "Capcom vs"

I don't give a fuck about those lame emo faggots Kyo, Iori or K, i just want a Fatal Fury with its classic characters back.

>>15335440

>Iori who has the best laugh in video games.

>Iori who has a fucking harem travelling with him.

>The least gay of all the KoF characters.

>Gets called gay by an Anon that posts WWE memes.

OK THEN.

>>15335495

Do you expect me to defend that shit?

That is no less gay.

>did anyone even play fucking dead space 3?

I did. It's been turned into a fucking rail shooter with jumpscares. Everything that made the first two games great was dashed against a wall.

>tense atmosphere

Nope

>amazing ambience and sound effects in general

Noope

>unsettling visuals

Nooope

>interesting story

Fuck no

>new features

lolno

Here's what happened instead:

>fuck putting any effort into the game

>also, fuck having all these extra people on the team, they're just taking up space

>let's reuse models from two others, just paint them a different color

>let's reuse the sound effects as well, because fuck paying the sound team

>also, fuck improving graphics, let's downgrade them instead but make them grainier to obfuscate it

>instead of adding new guns, let's just allow players to weld old guns together, that will totally not result in creation of overpowered deathmachines

>instead of desigining new monsters, let's just copy RE4 and add a shitton of humanoids that sprout tentacles when shot

>action takes place on a frozen planet? just slap some fur on space suits from the first two games, we're not paying designers to make new ones

*handrubbing intensifies*

>our scriptwriter can't write characters that act rational to save his life, but it's okay, they have plot armor

>atmosphere? who the fuck needs atmosphere, you're, like, killing evil zombies in the, like, snow, isn't that, like, cool enough already?

>we need more chase sequences and QTEs, btw

>don't forget to make the protagonist fall down from somewhere 20 times in 30 minutes of gametime

*room grows warmer from handrubbing*

>speaking of characters, let's add in a new guy with a separate story arc, but make that arc available only in co-op

>let's crumple up the story and leave a shitton of loose ends

>the ending is retarded and doesn't explain anything and makes the entire storyline pointless, but hey, it's "Lovecraftian"! Kids love Lovecraft these days, amirite fellow kids?

>speaking of endings, make the ending a DLC

*handrubbing generates enough heat to power a small city*

>oh, the game didn't sell and the fans received it poorly? that's too bad, just pay the journalists to give it 8s and 9s so that the game can at least pay for itself

>btw, your development studio is now dissolved for making such a shitty game :^)

>>15335528

Maybe? I usually post Petula along with VP but didn't think I had made a reputation out of it.

VP was always a comfy game but I always felt like it would have benefited from a bit more polish to certain mechanics and more world building in the second game.

>>15335400 (checked)

Remember anon, better dead than pozzed or dumbed down.

>>15335557

I want to at least find out what happened to Dylan and Paula, for fuck's sake.

>>15335553

It's just whenever it's brought up it's usually you. Not that it bothers me.

>>15335561

same here anon, but modern capcom would shit on it without a doubt (so Dino Crisis fans want a new one? ok we'll make a new game called "dino crisis" but we'll cater to the COD audience, fuck the fans of the original!)

Also i am sure the original developers are not in capcom anymore.

>>15335595

If Capcom makes a decent RE2 remake (not holding my breath here), I'd be rooting for a DC remake with my hands and feet.

>>15335587

You're right, its the best.

>>15335603

>>15335603

>If Capcom makes a decent RE2 remake

RE2 remake is RE6 with a RE2 skin, so it's already shit, and i am talking as someone who was looking forward to it.

>not holding my breath here

You better not

>>15335375

Freedom Wars in Japan had a text to speech program where your android helper would say your name and short phrases. This was axed from the western release because they were too lazy/cheap to make an english version.

>>15335659

It would have been much harder to do in English thanks to English being a mish mash of different languages. In Japanese all you needed was about 50 syllables.

>>15333514

>That's how Microjew got the monopoly in the first place, underage. They buy all their competition just to kill them.

EA does the same

>>15335659

>>15335674

They didn't even have to make an English version. Literally all they had to do was add an extra step to the name entry screen telling the player to put in how to pronounce their name. I don't remember the game even being dubbed.

>>15336118

I agree but they had to go and make that mobile shit just to spit on our faces. I will never stop being mad for that.

>>15336212

It's the hip and happening trend these days for dead JRPG series where the owners still smell shekels but are too leery of making a quality release on actual systems. I can only wonder in morbid curiosity which will be next for the treatment, and which fanbase will share our anger.

Whats Mischief Makers about?

>>15336935

I miss skateboarding games, period. It's like they completely died out after Skate 3 released, and that was almost 10 years ago. What the fuck happened?

>>15333212

>Gravity Rush

I'd still have hope since 2 was so recent, but Sony had the nerve to take down the servers after only a year and a half, and that's only after backing down when people got mad when they tried to shut down the servers after only one year. This game did practically everything right, and is one of the only modern games which actually cared enough to make sure the actual movement felt good and was fun, which is, I'd argue, the most important thing most games should focus on. It's fun just to run around even without goals. On top of that you have a great story with beautiful graphics and a top tier pure waifu protagonist, but I'd put up with anything so long as the gameplay came back.

>Ape Escape

>originally a game made to show off a new controller for PS1

>use new features of new controller to control a variety of gadgets, most notably a baton and a net

>new controller comes out for PS4. It's a pair of sticks for motion controls

>make new Ape Escape game for it. It makes perfect sense, right? Swing the stick to swing the net or baton. Twirl it above your head for the helicopter gadget. Point it at the screen to control the RC Car. Half the games that use the move already use it for slingshots.

>no, it's a rail shooter

>last Ape Escape game ever

>two of the three spinoffs that aren't just button mashing minigames never get released outside Japan

>>15333401

No, it's not too late. 2 had online features but they were minimal. A treasure hunting minigame and racing against other players' times. You do get unlocks for them but they're minimal. Still bullshit, but honestly I never used any of the stuff you unlock, and leaderboards are pointless anyway.

>>15333478

They made two Banjo games for GBA and one for console, which was originally going to be RC Pro Am, which is another Rare property. Also they did make another Perfect Dark and a Conker remake. They used their properties a bunch at first. But they chickened out of the "adult" nature of Conker, while also chickening out of the "kiddy" nature of Banjo, and chickening out of doing RC Pro Am completely. MS did use their properties a fair bit, though. They just fucked them up at every turn.

>>15333506

Rare was desperate to sell, and when push came to shove, Nintendo wasn't willing to buy. MS was.

>>15333866

That guy is lying. 2 is the best one. Though all three are top tier. Pumped and Primed is okay too if you're really aching for more. I hear Ape Escape 2001 and Million Monkeys are pretty good, too, but they're Japan only. All the rest are button mashing minigames.

>>15334844

No, they need to make 3D Dot Game Heroes 2 first.

>>15335338

>Tomba!

Did the rights ever get unfucked? I just remember they couldn't even figure out who owned the rights so it was a hassle before it got on the PS Store. This game would be so popular now that people go crazy over "Metroidvanias." I love that this one actually has a significant focus on platforming, unlike most.

>>15335716

>Jak & Daxter

I loved Jak II and 3, but in retrospect they were the beginning of the end for Naughty Dog. I'd still kill for another, in Jak I style, or Jak II/3 style. But what I want more than anything is another Jak X. Naughty Dog racing games were the best, and the moment they made The Last of Us instead of Uncharted is the moment I truly knew they were lost. Though I'd still get suckered back in if they ever made The Fast of Us.

>>15336935

Been marathoning all of these lately. Absolutely amazing games. I never cared for Skate's more "realistic" controls and movements, even though that was the selling point. Also the soundtrack wasn't as good.

>>15337114

Shaking things and people.

>>15337233

I'm more mad about ModNation Racers/LittleBig Planet Karting. I'll tolerate doing LBP Karting instead of Modnation Racers since it's a more marketable name, but I want the gameplay to continue. They were fun kart racers and making tracks was a lot more intuitive than making regular LBP levels. I'll do anything for more good kart racers. Mario Kart needs to be taken down a peg.

>>15337197

>No, they need to make 3D Dot Game Heroes 2 first.

They'd need to contract Silicon Studio again, who for all I know might be busy doing more Bravely for Square. Or mobile shit they either self publish or make for Mistwalker, which seems to make up the bulk of what they do these days. Last time they even made a console-tier game was 3DDGH itself in 2009.

>>15337233

Honestly, about the only thing I've been happy with them about lately was discovering the Japanese side had recently dumped some high res openings for an old game series I'd liked onto the JP jewtube channel, as most prior rips were rather low (difference between game rips and having access to the original components). Too bad they still stretched them all for modern screen ratios though, rather than at least leaving the ones meant for 4:3 at 4:3. A step forward, a step backwards.

>>15337292

DDO is still a thing, unfortunately, so it isn't quite dead yet. It got a PC and PS4/Xbone port so its still on Capcom's list.

>>15335625

>>15333433

>>15335338

These are all good. Additionally, Perfect Dark, Shinobi, 1080 Snowboarding, SSX, and Kid Icarus. If they're not dead, then they've been on extended hiatus, which may as well be fucking dead, if you ask me.

>>15337199

What happened to Mother 4?

>>15337407

Was Kid Icarus ever even alive? It got two sporadic sequels, but they're so far apart that they feel like standalone returns to a series rather than something that was ever intended to be continual.

>>15337416

As of last year, the team behind the fangame were purging all references to Mother and changing the name. Haven't heard much since then.

>>15333433

Prototype was killed when they made that nigger take center stage.

>>15334727

>>15337516

You should pray that it stays dead anon.

>>15337536

>creator of series became massive SJW

>Sony's american first party studios have all become massively SJW

>creator says that even if the series came back it would be some "games as a service" online only trash

>despite the fact that overly focusing on online is what killed the last entry

All I want is a fighting game only instead of punching in a ring you're driving and shooting in arenas. Is that too much to ask? It's a simple game.

>>15337534

i havent tried it but i wouldnt mind seeing their next attempt. what do i have to lose?

>>15337555

Do you really want to see a fully realized ASSFAGGOTS Dawn of War?

>>15337563

no but what did i lose? sure itd bug me for a little while but if im looking at this objectively what did it take from me? the damage is done, i have no hope, the only place to go is sideways or up.

>>15337605

Did you know the color red is hard on the eyes? Whoever made that chart apparently didn't.

>>15337618

perhaps

>>15337605

Yes, we get it. But you don't have to convince anyone here. You just come off as an autist that has to inject your particular brand of autism into everything. We're not talking about jews. We're talking about franchises being killed and never coming back. In this case because despite it being very non-SJW before, and the creator being openly anti-sjw, the creator is now SJW. I get it, jews. But it doesn't do much to say that Twisted Metal and God of War were both stealth SJW the entire time, and that time he got angry at some SJW reporter after gamergate was only pretending.

>>15337620

>But you don't have to convince anyone here.

but i do because everyone acts like he's an SJW and they don't know why meanwhile they forget he's a genuine jewish man

>We're not talking about jews.

but we are discussing him becoming an "SJW" thus this is relevant

>and the creator being openly anti-sjw

he was never openly anti-SJW, he simply did not agree with all SJW values at the time he called the guy out

you can criticize the SJW movement and still be a fucking SJW, things are not completely one sided just as you can criticize the "right" while still possessing conservative/traditional views

>But it doesn't do much to say that Twisted Metal and God of War were both stealth SJW the entire time

nobody is claiming this aside from some bullshit in black that was ultimately mostly cut out (agent stone's house being burned by skinheads because that totally happens in reality and roadkill being an evil skinhead nazi) unless you can quote me on this

>>15337580

You underestimate the power of the monkey's paw.

>>15337634

>but i do because everyone acts like he's an SJW and they don't know why meanwhile they forget he's a genuine jewish man

No it's easy to understand why. It's just surprising that the change was so drastic.

>nobody is claiming this

It seems to be the implication when, upon people pointing out the drastic change from previous works to now, the answer is just "jew." That doesn't undo the fact that the previous works were so different unless you are arguing that they were actually all just part of a jew tactic to get to modern SJWry the entire time.

>>15337648

i dont think were on the same page

>>15337668

We weren't the moment you said things could only get better or stay the same, its always possible for shit to get worse.

>>15337664

What I'm talking about is that given previous actions, including previous works, you wouldn't expect him to be SJW. Saying he's a jew doesn't explain that unless you argue that everything before which would imply not being an SJW was merely pretending.

>>15337675

but i dont care if it gets worse

>what do i have to lose?

what would i have lost? its already lost to me.

>>15337355

>>15337698

Its a /tv/ thing.

>>15337807

Fallout isn't dead anon, but it should be.

>>15337832

It's dead to me too, but as long as Jewthesda still makes games for its alive, albeit in the same way a zombie is.

>>15337855

Look at the bright side anon, at least they haven't been ruined for the time being.

>>15337855

At least Battle Network has two good fan projects (Shanghai EXE and Chrono X) that capture the feel perfectly and are reasonably far along with fairly long demos.

>>15338193

What game is this?

>>15337731

They already rebooted it once mate, it was a decent PSP game dragged down by the demon/goblin companion who couldn't shut the fuck up for more than 5 seconds.

>>15338255

Literally in the second picture. Can't you read?

>>15341544

imagine if you were dying, but instead of curing you or letting you die they chopped your arms and legs off, stretched your body around a slot machine and put you on life support. good thing game franchises arent living people.

Why didn't they make BurgerTime 2?

>>15342030

I never got why this one died. I know Blizzard were making WoW at teh time it died, but RTSes were still really popular around that time. Seems like a waste, but then again at least Blizzard won't pozz the series now.

>>15342044

True. I'd rather a game series I love not be shat on and be dead than be made by people that are clearly just using it to make a quick shekel

>>15335612

Despite the cast being comprised of a roastie, a Swede and a nigger, the first game was pretty damn good for its time.

>>15357974

it's alive if you like to eat poop. the strange journey remake was 0/10.

>>15372350

Shitsu please.

>>15358352

Detail good features of Ultima. I do not understand why people like it.

>>15372791

It's an RPG series with massive amounts of freedom (especially U7) and gameplay that doesn't lead you by the nose and has lots of stuff to explore. The series has both the best PC RPG ever made (U7) and the worst (U9). A convenient one-stop shop.

Millennials will have a hard time as they are incapable of playing a game that does not have GPS, quick travel, and a quest log telling them what to do next. Which is a good thing, as if the series was more accessible they would latch on to the 'progressive' parts of the lore and we'd get some sort of horrible abomination raping my childhood.

>>15335338

streets of rage 4 was announced so it's not dead yet

>>15333673

>>15333930

Delayed to 2019, surprising no one. Basically the usual scope changed kinda shit that hits damn near every crowdfunded game.

>not a single mention of time splitters

>>15337432

KI is a strange series. The NES original got plenty of attention back in the day (over a million sales, cameos of Pit in other NES/GB games, character in the Captain N cartoon) from the sounds of it, the GB sequel (also running on the Metroid 2 GB engine) wasn't even released in Japan until the 3DS VC happened and it's story isn't even canon thanks to Uprising ignoring it. Nintendo Power supposedly claimed that a Super Kid Icarus (using Super Metroid's engine?) was going to be on the SNES but it obviously didn't happen. Pit only appeared in Brawl because the NES classic GBA port of KI sold well in Japan, so the Japanese obviously liked the original game.

Could Gunpei Yokoi's death has something to do with KI lack of games?

Could a 2D SNES sidescroller from the Super Metroid team have given the series a greater legacy and remembrance akin to it's sister series Metroid?

I would assume that once Sakurai finishes with Smash Ultimate he'll want to a break from Smash and do something different like a KIU sequel instead of just going from development of Smash 4 to Smash DLC to Smash Ultimate.

>Metal Arms: Glitch in the System

It only had one installment, but it was good and deserved more. Vivendi Universal would never greenlight a second one, and would never give up the IP to it's author.

Didn't 4/5 kill itself entirely on its own, though? The Last Guardian was a bad game and sold worse.
