If you could erase a game/series of games from ever being made...

[Mercernary]

Halo. I'm tired of all the hype, fan-boys and worship over a game that's pretty good at best.

 

[MrSnugglesworth]

For experimental reasons? Final Fantasy.

For hatred reasons? Either Call of Duty series after CoD2, or World of Warcraft (not Warcraft itself though).

I agree. I'd rather they continue Warcraft as an RTS than an MMO.

I guess theres still Starcraft to count on though...

... am I the only one who'd destroy E.T. if only to make it so that 1) Video games didn't have a dark ages in which they were nearly obliterated. and 2) To raise the bar for movie based games to that maybe they didn't have to suck by default?

 

[Vrex360]

It would cause a huge TIME PARADOX no matter what you got rid of.

And those are bad.

There's nothing funny about paradoxes.

ahem.
I wouldn't delete any game series because I don't have the right to do that. I wouldn't even delete the crappy old games of the past on consoles like the NES because then we wouldn't have the AVGN. So I guess, take the bad with the good and the whole world runs smoothly.

 

[TheGreatGonzo26]

I'd erase games that turn guys in to total douche bags. So, my list runs like this:
-Halo
-FPSs in general (but especially Halo if I got my choosing)
-MMORPGs

 

[Souplex]

For their terrible hype/quality ratio: Half Life and Metal Gear
To screw with things Mario, lets see how we recover from the crash of 83

 

[Ghadente]

Pokemon... its bad enough that there was a show

 

[Mr. Fahrenheit]

Tomb Raider.

Bad games, bad movies

 

[Ohten]

I would pick WOW simply because tens of millions of people are creating a nerd/gaming stigma of being anti-social lifeless unproductive people who play on the computer 10 hours a day. At least thats the stigma its been giving the media... and through them... non-gamers. This inaccurate stereotype is offensive and it seems to me the only solution is to get rid of wow.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Hate to break it to you, dude, but that's been the stereotype since Pong hit store shelves. WoW has nothing to do with it.

 

[InfernoJesus]

World of Warcraft. Just to give other MMO game developers a chance in the market.

 

[newguy77]

For their terrible hype/quality ratio: Half Life

Dang, you stole my experimental series.
OT: Starfox after the 64 version.

 

[Deleric]

"Tennis for Two".

For lulz.

 

[Teh Ty]

Madden or COD. So all the douchbags in my school with stop talking about how good their roster is, or what prestige their on.

 

[Arisato-kun]

I'd erase Halo so better shooters would have a chance to shine.

And just to see how bad it would screw things up let's try erasing Goldeneye. That's the grandaddy of the modern shooter. It'd be interesting to say the least.

 

[the sighing shoe]

personaly out of hate... halo, dont get me wrong its an ok game but when it became so horribly populer everyone else made fps' cakewalks cause all you had to do is hide behind a thin door till the red glow went away...

experamental reasons all starwars games so that lucus arts made something else that was original and had a better non overmilked storyline... ok ok that one was hatred too...

final fanticy it set the bar for alot of things and i wonder how crappy (or potentaly good) the world of rpgs would be if square didnt have there little crown jewel

 

[Pimppeter2]

TES IV. They butchered the series in that title.

Hold your tongue sir!

 

[SebZero]

Just to see what chaos would ensue...

-Halo series
-Legend of Zelda series
-Warcraft series
-Duke Nukem series
-Pacman

 

[BigT65]

definitely the half life series, and probably the halo series, but to fuck things up, i'd get rid of doom
