Aren't we meant to not like all caps titles?

Doesn't that mean I'm meant to report you?

[small]Clarification, please.[/small]

Report me if you like, the caps title was indicative of the reaction envisaged - so I believe - as other have in the past, that the inherent rudeness is inseparably linked to the discussion.

Also, given it's mockery of TLAs, it would lose a lot of its desired impact in lower case. Sometimes caps are just caps.

Padme Amidala having an abortion. I bet George 'Franchiseicide' Lucas already thought about that one though.

still better than "she lost the will to live"

Freeman speaking would be a good thing dude. It might actually make him a good character, or at least a character to begin with.
Then again his dialogue would have to be written by valves writers and I don't think anyone wants that.

You completely missed the point. It wasn't that him speaking would be a problem, it was that it would ruin things slightly if his first line was something out of character and/or idiotic (like the suggested "Oh. My. God. I just totally whacked those bozos.").

As for further suggestions: um... they could ruin the Katamari games by making the graphics more realistic. Half the charm is in the exaggerated cartoonishness.

Someone writes a Twilight mod for Castlevania...

DO NOT EVEN JOKE ABOUT THAT O_O!!!!

 

[rokkolpo]

Have Jeremy Clarckson be the voice of Kratos in God of War III... fuck I think I need to throw up now.

Set the entirety of fallout 4 in a perfectly functioning vault, thats run by aliens, in collaboration with super mutants, and jabba the hut.

1. Give Mario an AK-47
2. Send Solid Snake to space
3. Give Final Fantasy series' women a realistic physique (no furries either!)
4. Have next Call of Duty feature Space Marines
5. Have the next Mass Effect feature wanking (optionally ofc)

The above should sound reasonable only to THE Nerdiest core gamers and blind and deaf fanboys of each respective franchise.

I have always retained this particular thought....

I would have the eagles come and pick up Frodo and deliver him to Mt Doom... It'd save a helluvah lot of walking... and death...

I could go on forever about how this wouldnt work, but my girlfriend says that if I ever bring this up again she will castrate me.

I think if Yatzee were able to create a main stream game.
ok im only half jokeing

Here is my real answer.
videogame movies.

 

[benbenthegamerman]

remaking superman 64 would ruin the franchise of GAMING IN GENERAL.

Sauron would see them coming a million miles off. Ring Wraiths and their fell beasts would pose quite a problem, not to mention thousands upon thousands of orcs sitting around in Mordor, who wouldn't just dick around and say "oh dang, eagles, I guess that's us outsmarted". Bows and arrows, you know. Sneaking into Mordor would be a far better idea than storming in with a bunch of eagles, announcing to all of Mordor and Sauron "I'm going to ruin your shit".

Gordan Freeman gets contact lenses.
And shaves.

But then he'd just look like Hugh Laurie...

Actually, I have a pic of Dr. Gordon House Freeman, but dunno how to post it here.
A crying shame, ain't it?

i pefer the one of Zack(h?) Braff
(for some reason i cant make up my mind if its spelt witha k or an h)

If they make anymore 3D Sonic games. I hope this new "2.5D" one will be as good as they say it will (most likely it won't but I still hold onto some hope for Sonic).

 

[Pimppeter2]

Making Peter M direct the new TES.

Characters would be farting all over the place

 

[Lord_Ascendant]

Oh Root, what an interesting question.

A Castlevania game written and directed by Annie Rice

 

[badgersprite]

Easy way to ruin anything - introduce a new character who is either the child of or a close relation to the main character (or a central character). They will be the source of everything that is hate for intruding upon the sacred circle of the major cast, or just ruin the show by making it take a left turn on stupid and pointless. See: Wesley Crusher, Dawn Summers, Kyla Davies, Scrappy Doo, Cousin Oliver, Chibi-Usa (aka Mini-Moon), Mutt, Connor etc etc...

Or else, replace a beloved character who was killed off or left the cast with an obvious clone who acts like an absolute tool and lacks all the charm and grace of their predecessor. See: Jason Todd (the Robin the fans voted to die), Dr. Pulaski, some hate has already been felt for Project Zero and Grunt, the musical-chairs treatment of L&O ADAs has earned some of them massive hatred, or just see how the last two seasons of Charlie's Angels ruined the show...

The lesson here is don't kill people off.

Better yet, Big Boss fighting Commies on the MOON!

Take away Gordon Freeman's crowbar,

Add real world physics to Mario Kart (I will never again be bumped 30 feet sideways by one person who is only slightly heavier than at the same speed!)

Give Mario a real world physics jumping ability, you can now only go up about 4 feet tops. Good Luck!

Link's boomerangs don't go through enemies.

All shooters have real world health systems where you have to wait in a hospital to recover. For months. And if you don't get picked up by your buddies in time, you bleed to death. Have fun!

 

[SomeGuyNamedKy]

Peach becomes a man.

That'll totally derail the motives for Bowser and Mario!

How about Peach gets saved yet again, but is never kidnapped again?

 

[KaiRai]

A moral choice system in Saints Row.

Although I do love Saints Row.

The option to drive a tank on Gran Turismo?

 

[Shadowfaze]

Have Gordon freeman SPEAK. it would ruin his reputation as the silent protagonist, plus, the fanboys would go nuts because "his voice is not right" or "he sounds too wimpy/macho".

Seriously, Franchisicide.
