I wouldn't say that Halo, MGS, SC, and RE will be concluded considering all the spinoff games that'll arrive.
Also, the best ones of them all:
System Shock
Baldur's Gate
Icewind Dale

Much to my sadness, MediEvil.
Plus any chances of a good Sonic game are dead.
Damn you SEGA! I miss good Sonic games. Sonic Adventures was the last one I'd call a "good" game.

Splinter Cell will probably be ended after Conviction.
[spoiler]They've already basically ended his career as a Special Operative, so I doubt there can be much story after this one.[/spoiler]

There is two Kingdom Hearts games coming out and strong rumours of a KHII sequal.
solidfox - February 17, 2008 06:05 AM (GMT)
Well thats what I was talking about. Rumored that this shall be the last, all of which coming out soon.

Halo franchise isn't technically dead. But for Master Chief's story, it ended with Halo 3.
OcelotSnake - February 17, 2008 12:20 PM (GMT)
Oddworld series.
I never played the Xbox games but I loved the 2D platforming in Abe's Odyssey and Abe's Exodus and it seems that my hope for a return to form on one of the next gen consoles (coughPS3pleasecough) is never going to materialise.

BigK - Why do you think that Resident Evil will be concluded ?

I wouldn't say so. Esp. after the cliffhanger ending.
Final Fantasy needs to end, though.
sadistic_greyfox - February 18, 2008 12:14 AM (GMT)
The thing about Final Fantasy though is the games rarely follow the same story as the previous with the exception of FF7 and 10. It will probably never end, in a sense FF is the James Bond of gaming.

Crash Bandicoot. ;_;
As far as I'm concerned that series died with the Playstation 1.

Blasphemy!
As stated above, FF RARELY follows the same plot, so there is no reason to end it. Always a new RPG with a new story. Only bad thing for FF recently is the new composer shift...which let down XII a tad...but that series is a massive juggernaut, second to....mario...?

It's practically over since Resident Evil 0 came out, or rather that gun game for the Wii - RE4 was completely different, no zombies, no Umbrella... and you can't have a RE game without those, so I perfer to think of RE4 and RE5 as spinoffs. Superior Spinoffs. But it's a shame that so many questions were never answered and so many character's fates weren't revealed.
And, BTW, Mortal Kombat has been a dead franchise for a while. For some, it died back in 1995 with MK3, some for MK4. It died for me after Deadly Alliance, because the two after that sucked horribly.
solidfox - February 21, 2008 06:46 AM (GMT)
Hell yeah, MK died after MK 2 for me...they totally ruined it when Midway picked it up...and I was pissed cause they killed Cage too... <_<
But still, I got the most recent one for the Wii just to play it with my bro for old times sake.
