The biggest sin in gaming, at least for me. Is how EA basically murdered the Dead Space franchise. I will never forgive them!

@@gotaki_2736 Kotor was cancelled indefinitely, and there’s still no telling whether or not the SH remake is gonna be good or not
I am still waiting for prince of Persia revival🥲🥲
@@gotaki_2736 So only a few that you can count on one hand. Two of those are remakes which in my opinion don't offer anything in terms of innovation. They're the same games with a fresh lick of paint. Would be nice to see a greater emphasis on newer IPs and the next chapters or reimaginings of already established IPs from a wide range of genres like in the good ol' days. But I suppose most folks will accept anything, even if it's some lousy remake, and call it a day.
Still mourning Sly Cooper, the games of my childhood that got me into open world action/RPG games. Gone but not forgotten🙏
SP seems to work in 3's....first they made 3 Sly games then 3 Infamous games and now it's Ghost of Tsushima.....
also each new game evolves mechanics started in Sly or so I'm told....
As much as I love the sly cooper series, it seems unlikely that we'll ever see a new game, especially if people never played or cared about the games to begin with.
Mood, currently attempting to beat Sly2 with out being seen (where possible) love revisiting old classics and adding challenges to them 😁
@@LicensedGuitarist2000 I own'ed a PS2 but I was addicted to Gran Turismo3, GTA trilogy, Onimusha series, Hitman trilogy, first 2 midnight club games and NFSU2 Most wanted and Pro Street among others also had XBOX and played mostly KOTOR, KOTOR2 & Forza near the end
I never even touched Jaxx, Ratchet or Sly but I did like one of the Spyro games on PS1 but IDK whivch it was number 1 ore 2 they released too fast to tell for me lol
also PS1 I only had near the end and on;y had a handful of games that all got stolen which i already stole anyways so i got what I deserved yeah? just thought that tidbit would be funny
I can not believe I made SNES last until gen 6.....but literealy even that summer of 2000 there I was back home playing old SNES and NES games again.....
I won't claim anything horrible, Sly was probably all that and I missed out but for my opinion when offered thief games well thief 3 was a olde brand from PC so I chose that one, thay's my on;py reason and snealing MGS which i did play on PS1 I kept with on PS2 and MGS2 took a long to to fully appreciate cus thge story was cool but I just wanted to play as Snake but slowly I realized why they used Raiden and the deeper apsects of the game were made clearer especially in recent years now I kinda wanna go back lol
so yeah for my sneaking and kleptinjg aspects i was getting that elsewhere
Deus Ex is another stealth game series I love....
so as I said I have no hate towards Sly cus I ever played lol but i a way i kinda have in the games that came after and if the climbing in shy was as good that it had a strong foundation...
Soy is trash sly
Dead Space is the biggest sad. Luckily Negative Atmosphere is on the horizon. You should check it out my guy, its gonna be pretty lit
There's also the callisto effect
@@warsharkproductions6550 Callisto protocol
@@glutton8055 Your right, I got that wrong. It still looks really good.
Oh hey Roanoke, fancy seeing you here I guess, I feel like giving my thoughts on Negative Atmosphere so I guess I'll do that: So far Negative Atmosphere is looking pretty good, character designs are nice, the main characters story (so far at least) seems pretty interesting, a former soldier (I think? I don't remember) who witnessed the horrors of war and now has PTSD enters a seemingly lifeless ship, only for him to discover the terrors that lay on it. It sounds pretty good so far, though I have my doubts, I'm honestly worried that it will turn out to be a huge disaster just like many other games, there has been times where a game looks pretty good only for it to turn out pretty bad. Agony is a pretty good (or would it be bad?) example, I'm hoping Negative Atmosphere turns out to be pretty good, because it looks awesome so far. Hopefully it does turn out good, also, CaN i GeT 55,000 lIkEs?fndhdhrbhfhrbrvdvsvehuahajsi????????????????

and resistance IDK was just boring, earth overtaken by aliens and a resistance ehhh forms to fight the invasion...sounds like some really good movies....it was dog shit boring!! it was a slog through a swamp annoying, it was eh you get the idea not my bag
on a sort of flip side Generation Zero is good.....first person survival where you arent worrying about meters am i thirsty, hungry need to shit or piss, am I filthy?? none of that but you fight robots in 80's Sweden.....AWESOME!!!! seriously sneaking around BELLY CRAWLING across a field hoping the bots don't see me.....[white knuckle sweating] and learning hey you can shoot their guns off YAY! seriously game is pretty cool, kinda glitchy, kinda unstable at times but when it's at it's best it's fun and engaging and for a game about fighting a superior force what we see is pretty realistic or what I would expect....
also gen zero is a better Fallout online than F76 is...ouch
I say like what you like, you aren't wrong for it but for me I just didn't get into KZ or resistance meh

I finished origins the other day for the first time and god I was ready to cry at the end when everyone was saying goodbye. All the good memories and tough choices
Every time Act Man showed a game franchise whose last entry was in 2011 I’d go “how is that dead? 2011 wasn’t that long ago”. And then I realize that it’s 2021 and that 2011 was somehow 10 years ago
That awkward moment when you realise the 90s were 30 years ago.

If anyone's looking for a new F.E.A.R game, look at Trepang2 on steam. They have a demo out, and I can solidly say its better then all the fear games combined. Made by a small dev team with no release date yet, but a new version of the demo is supposedly coming out soon.
DA origins is in my opinion one of the best games ever released . I first played it last year after I bought an RGH 360 to bring back the nostalgia couldn’t believe I never played it

I'm over a year late to this video, but thank you for including Custom Robo. I fondly remember countless hours of Custom Robo Arena on NDS as a kid, and I'm still waiting for another game to scratch that itch like Custom Robo did. I definitely need to give the Gamecube version a try at some point!
Custom Robo was soo good
Warms my heart to see Gauntlet get some love. Loved Dark Legacy and work love to see a remaster or another game like it
Fun fact: Portal for VR vas actually developed but it probably caused nasty motion sickness
Yeah I tried a portal beta map on vr chat of all places and after playing it for a bit it gave me phantom motion sensations.
I heard they canned it because that exact reason it caused motion sickness lol
I play vr and games quite a bit, and portal is the only game that has caused motion sickness for me
Playing the regular version got me a dizzy. Cant imagine that in VR
There are plenty of ways to make a physics sandbox puzzle with portals without requiring the player to go through the portals at high speed.
Sly Cooper has been lost to the sands of time. Literally. He's in ancient egypt, in the secret ending of Sly Cooper Thieves in Time(I refuse to call it Sly 4). For the past 9 to 10 years.
Oh shit
I loved those games so much how did I forget
yooo that game was my childhood on the ps2
As much as I'd like to see another Sly game, in my opinion Thieves in Time wasn't that great. It would be great if the series got a different story after 3. It could still involve time travel but have it be its own thing instead of revolving the whole game around it. Like having the time machine finished by the end of 4 which might lead to a different game or just a cool gadget to have to replay the story.
@@MGSTube78 My idea for the game would take place during the escape on Dr. M's island, in Sly and Carmelita's perspective. They await a boat from the mercenaries. In the meantime, Sly leaves behind his cane, handbag, and calling card behind.
I would argue that Carmelita and Sly were more or less agreeing to work together, when he "lost his memory.' At least that's how I saw it. Again, how would Sly leave his personal possessions, with millions of gold loot, from his ancestors, without her noticing.
Actually, what about an opening, much like the first three games, where instead of stealing an item Sly would stop criminals from doing so. Then, bam! Now Carmelita, who used her shock pistol on you, is now shooting at the criminals while Sly cuts them off.
Then... Opening of the dance, with the events of the past up to now. Then Sly decided to pay Bentley a visit, for old times sake, only to see a ransacked home. Where both he and Penelope are missing. What will Sly and Carmelita do? Would it be a good idea to hunt down Bentley, under the guise of catching the brains of the Cooper gang?
Evil laughing sound of a possible Clockwork backup robo chip, accidentally built by Sly's mechanical ancestor. Who did not know about the rage chip. Bam! Murray wants to help. Dimitri is painting and grooving. Cars are actually great to use the controller, without the motion thing. Um...
That's all I got, really. It's not the best. It's the only way to get around the amnesia and time travel plotline. How about Sly's secret ending is seeing his father, one last time. Bentley did create the time machine, but it really shows a projection of the past, rather than traveling. Sly, and the audience, look at his father for the first time. Silence... He touches the screen.
Oh, and the fifth game involves Mugshot ruling the universe because he used super steroids, and won all the olympics. Causing anger to Brazil, after 7-1. Oh, and Bentley is a computer robotic turtle in a badass wheel chair. Carmelita tells Sly she's pregnant, after their recent exhibition. Then it ends with Dimitri reviving Disco from it's eternal banishment of trending through the ages. French people rejoice as they speak english through the grooving music, bro.
And the sixth game involves order 66, declared by EA...
The developers of the fourth game have a story planned out for a fifth installment and want to make it. They're just waiting for Sony's okay.
14:00 Thank you so much Act Man. I’ve been looking for this series for awhile. I remembered playing one of the games as a kid but couldn’t remember much about it. Finally found the game thanks to you (Gauntlet Legends)

Resident Evil is far from dead. Just because boomers can't migrate their brains from the 1990s doesn't mean the franchise is dead.
RE7 is the biggest achievement of single-player gaming in a long time. Especially if you know how much the director had to fight Capcom to make it happen, and to go against the old fans by not bringing the old characters back.
The creative director went out of his way to make sure the game wouldn't be filled with crappy micro-transactions. The boldness to bring the new engine to life, a completely new character was daring and brave.
Welcome back, Dead Space! And what a return it has been!
Hopefully we get a remake of 2 next and then the dead space 3 that we should’ve gotten without the scummy micro transactions

@@toxronin3971 I miss Sly Cooper SO MUCH, I remember it was one of the first games my dad showed me, so it holds a special place in my heart.
The franchise I still mourn is Golden Sun, I fell in love with them almost instantly, with the beautiful art style, the killer soundtrack by Motoi Sakuraba, a really creative magic system and a simple yet very compelling story, in fact, it was my first JRPG, it made me want to try others too and is still my favorite JRPG of all time,and while I still personally enjoy the third entry, I also understand why it didn’t do well and failed to revive the franchise, and I doubt it will ever get anything more than a passing mention in Smash, like several of the entries on the list 😢
not sure if you'll ever see this but holy crap for YEARS I've had this vague memory of a fighting game but I never knew enough about it that I could ask others or research it, but THIS VIDEO ACTUALLY SHOWS IT. I also played custom robo! Literally the only thing I knew about the game was that it had fighting and some sort of grid around the arena. That is literally all I remember. thank you so much for making this video haha I haven't felt this way since I found out The Bouncer was a game that I played as a kid as well haha thanks man!
Did y'all forgot Max Payne? The whole franchise needs a remake or remaster...
Max Payne might have stopped but its effect and legacy lives on in many games. Especially within Remedy's IPs. You can't play Quantum Break or Control and not see the influence, plus the implementation of bullet time in other games. At least that's my way of coping :P
Yeah man!
My exact thoughts

Thieves in Time was still a very great game, I'd say on-par with the original 3 in terms of gameplay. But the story of Thieves in Time just messed so much up...
Wow didnt expect to see shuck here
@@Joskilani I feel like the story would have been fine if they had just finished the ending.
Rest in Pieces, games. Great video, Act Man!
Nox Quest, mech commander, larry, dungeon siege, alone in the dark, the suffering, some games i really enjoyed.
“Fear” is also a series I would love to return, been too long.
FEAR should have been a series of games with a new paranormal threat each game. Instead they went with alma every game which was dissapointing
@@MILDMONSTER1234 Alma was interesting there's no need to call her disappointing she had a purpose and served it well also, Paranormal events aren't what F.E.A.R. kinda is cause Alma let's be honest a lot of the things she does is more supernatural than paranormal as she was an experiment and paranormal is what science can't explain. Even if it was different paranormal events each game there weren't many things they could do as paranormal is based on things science can't explain like Aliens, ghost, bigfoot, and the love ness monster all these things were exhausted to death with things like Prey, Fatal Frame, Silent Hill (which is somewhat both paranormal and supernatural), Ghosthunter, movies like 13 Ghost, the grudge, the ring, exorcist, etc, the early and mid-2000s were the years of all the ghost and alien games so not much they could really try out with so many other titles.
@@MILDMONSTER1234 sorry for the long reply but felt it isn't something so simple as making a new event Alma, either way, was a great overall villain and objective for the F.E.A.R. series as a whole gotta admit yeah after 3 games she outstayed her welcome but as she didn't have the staying power of someone like Albust Wesker or Pyramid head still you gotta admit the story around her and her overall design was creepy as hell and cool as shit. Like the first game, she was fucking scary man but, I can see how repetitive it seems to have her in every game understandable completely.
Agree, i wish new F.E.A.R. from Monolith i hope with original AI. Oh man and sequel to Point Man story, real Point Man from original not fake one from Fear 3.TPM is one of the greatest protagonists ever.
@@lunarrosecrow407 She was cool for a little while but it should have ended sooner. fear would have made for a great scp franchise instead of just focusing on one ghost girl
I will never stop being salty about what happened to the KOTOR series.
Same
I will never stop being salty about literally EVERY fucking BIOWARE IP in existence turning into a steaming pile of dogshit :( I'm not sure any game dev can truly match the horrifically sad fall from grace as much as Bioware ...
@Ahmed malaki hes talking about knights of the old republic, a star wars game series.
It's still EA never allowing Obsidian or one of their more capable studios (other than Bioware) make KOTOR 3. They could've just said it was strictly EU canon only. I just... want KOTOR 3.
all of us agree brosef
Rip midnight club the best racing game to ever exist
You’re goddamn right
I love how often I hear banjo kazooie music on your channel.
Honorable Mentions: Sly Cooper, SSX, Jak and Daxter.
There might still be a chance for Sly to come back. Jak and Daxter too if they fire Neil
No One Lives Forever and F.E.A.R
Blinx: The Timesweeper and Mechassault, I’m not on Xbox anymore but I loved them as a kid
Jak isn’t forgotten but it may be a good thing we aren’t getting a Jak 4, besides I wouldn’t want to buy an inferior ps5 just for Jak 4. Not even a ps4 if it was compatible.
Jak and Sly better come back for the PS5, like Ratchet still get new games
Me: Todd can we get a Elder Scrolls 6 yet
Todd: .... Skyrim ultra super legendary edition
Now in 8k resolution. Basically every mods do at full priced

Im sad that after nearly 10 years of rerelease theres only two story dlc
I would buy it
@@mayonnaiseluther1568 same dude
omg i had almost forgotten gauntlent thank you for reminding me of an amazing game with some amazing memories that are curently flowing back at 920pm on the 23rd of jan 2023
I was just taking about custom robo, loved that game when playing with friends
Rest in peace, Big Boss, rest in peace... NOT HAVING A METAL GEAR GAME IS LIKE A BLOODY PHANTOM PAIN. Pun intended
I really wanted a GEX Remake Trilogy after the release of Crash N.Sane Trilogy but guess what those dumbasses at Crystal Dynamics did, discount superhero Destiny
SNAKE EATER!!!!!
Aren't they remaking MGS though? Not like it's totally dead~
Jesus Christ.... no more MGS games 😢
Metal Gear Solid is my favorite franchise . Thanks to Konami we will never see this level of quality again .
"Its time to kick ass and disappointment everyone, and I'm done kicking ass" lmao
I was proud of that one haha
@@TheActMan haha you do great work sir!
Duke's Tour DLC for Bulletstorm(along with Retro shooters like Ion fury, Dusk and more) proved that Duke could have a chance, he just needs publishers and developers that care enough to make a good game.
@@drivanradosivic1357 I would love a new Duke game, hes been one of my favorite characters since I was a kid, I even liked DNF, but with Duke being owned by gearbox, I dont think anything new will come out again.
@@jordanwright2313 nah, Bulletstorm Duke's Tour is a thing, which is a fine way to test out Duke Nukem in new releases. I even think we should make a Duke Nukem Vault Hunter for BL3 to not only cross off the looter shooter genre but to test out Duke in new releases before Gearbox decides to do anything new with him, like a Duke Nukem collection with 2001 DNF and the new Duke Nukem game pulling a Doom 2016 or Doom Eternal.
Conkers is underrated even with its cult following. One of THE BEST multiplayers of any game period.
So glad you put Joe on here. I've been clamoring for a new one since that generation's end. Such great and unique action titles for their time.
Timesplitters is criminally underrated.
EXACTLY. One of the best FPS games during the 6th gen era. Especially Timesplitters 2. That game still remains as my favorite FPS game to date. Hopefully that Timesplitters Rewind project manages to be completed soon.
2 were so goooddd
Next level gameplay. Future Perfect is as it's name implies.
Facts.
Future Perfect was a peg above 2 for me. 2's controls were just awful, but the maps were amazing.
"remember when rockstar made games?"
-doesn't mention midnight club
me: :(
@Sam Houser also released it the same year as gta4
He also seems to have forgotten Red Dead Redemption 2 that came out in 2018.
@@Onnarashi exactly what i thought
Never ever liked racing games, but my brother does. I still hope they make anything that isn’t a new heist no one will play in gta online...
@Sam Houser MC3 on the PS2 was the best racing game I ever played. And that's coming from a guy who spent a lot of time on motorstorm.
Tons of series I grew up with. I couldn't agree more with this video.
There was actually a Custom Robo arena for the DS released in the US. Pretty fun game. There was also a game released in 2020 called Synaptic Drive that’s a similar style but I’ve heard not great things about the gameplay and have yet to try it out for myself.
"The Captain deserves another chance to blow people's minds with ludicrous speed." Truer words have never been spoken. I need another F-Zero game, GX was a masterpiece.
I sae Cap. Falcon in the thumbnail and thought: "hey, but Super Smash Bros is not a dead franchise"... Then it hit me.
It didn't hit me wdym
@@camtubecamtube F-Zero is so dead that he thought capitan falcon was from smash bros lmao
Same
He might as well be, considering how Nintendo is going... Actually, no, there's a possibility to get a porting of GX!
When a franchise is so dead you associate it with a different game all together.
The good old gauntlet dark legacy theme song. What a throwback. I actually just recently bought a ps2 just to play gauntlet again
Prince of persia sands of time was my childhood..omg i got hit by the hammer of nostalgia 😭 would love for you to make a video about the games one day..I don’t understand how tf they went downhill
When Metroid and Paper Mario make the list,
But Mother doesn’t
To be fair the franchise is over it’s just Nintendo won’t localize it
That’s because Itoi said that the series concluded with the third instalment, and evidently so, based on the ending. It does kinda suck that the Mother series ended, but it’s better to go out with dignity, as opposed to beating the dead horse of a franchise long after it died.
@@PkmariO64 _B U T W H Y W O N ‘ T T H E Y R E M A K E I T_
@@PkmariO64 I just wish they'd localize Mother 3 and slap a T rating on it so they don't censor anything, but this is nintendo we're talking about, we'll either get a censored version of it or we won't get it at all.
Mother as a series died with dignity, whereas Metroid and Paper Mario have spent the last decade being dragged through the mud.
One of EA’s biggest missed opportunities is that they had both the Star Wars license and BioWare’s ownership at the same time. How did they not make a KOTOR 3?!
Maybe it was better that way
@@Shvabicu Why do you say that?
@@christianbethel because they would ruin it
They would have made a kotor andromeda
Due to the fact EA just stopped making kick ass games in its place was milking games with no effort into making it good. Lets not forget that EA did some good stuff a long time ago.
Man i was waiting for you to bring up Sly *cries*
Please just give us the sequel of Republic Commando we deserve!!!!
That game holds up so well
Pouring one out for classic Halo, World at War horror-themed CODs, Crackdown, Battlefront, Blood, Battlezone, Crysis, F.E.A.R and Red Faction
Tbh if other FPSs could be as terrifying and atmospheric as World at War, we could have world peace
Battlefront isn't dead though, and the second one has come to actually do the franchise justice by the end of it's support
Crackdown is especially one one for me. They took the awesome art design, great gameplay, and fun of both of them and they pissed in its mouth.
SOCOM and SWAT games too
Oh man I miss red faction :( greatest destruction seen in any game wish they made a sequel.Also fear is a masterpiece
I still can't believe Microsoft bought Rare and then was like: Your going to make Kinect games now
Thank Don maverick.

It was like buying Star Wars and making a Palpatine the main character.... mmmm wait...

I'm surprised you didn't mention Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell. After Michael Ironside left the role of Sam Fisher, the series now kinda blows :(
Yeah it’s a real shame. I haven’t kept up with it in a while but I remember a while back there were a bunch of rumors of a 2021 release. With all his guest appearances something should come out his franchise right? Hopefully
@@geographygeo3081 in blacklist he wasnt there because he had cancer
Kinda agree but disagree at the same time
Conviction is still a good action game, maybe even a good stealth game, but it's a shit Splinter Cell game. And Michael Ironside still voiced Sam Fisher in that game. Now Blacklist is actually the second best game in the franchise after Chaos Theory gameplay wise (just my opinion), and by then Ironside was replaced
The franchise is dead not because it went to shit, but because we haven't had a single game for almost ten years now
agreed , like look at GR now! its trash , look at future solider and compare it to wildlands or breakpoint , its just isnt better in anyway exept ghraphics and audio
For me is Alan Wake.
Good list. Love custom robo and ultimate muscle on GameCube. Lost kingdom is another lost game I wish we got more of.
Also I'm watching this over a year later and Metroid dread was a welcomed edition. Great game.
