Top 10 Least Innovative Game Franchises

People will like most of these franchises, but read the description before you hate.

The Top Ten

  1. Call of Duty

    I swear the only reason Call of Duty makes money is because little kids are too dumb to notice it's the same game, only reskinned.

    Shoot people, no Wi-Fi connection, rage, kids. It's just annoying.

  2. Super Smash Bros.

    I've seen Smash 4, and it doesn't look that good. All Smash changes is slight graphics, a few characters, and stages. And the character choices are awful. Megaman and Villager will be broken, and Pac-Man will be useless. I do like Mii Fighters, though.

  3. Mario Party

    Overrated pile of garbage franchise.

  4. The Sims

    A real life simulator that occasionally adds cool stuff.

  5. Bubsy

  6. NBA 2K

  7. Halo

    Shoot people. Get shot back. That's every FPS ever made, my good man.

    Shoot people. Get shot back. There's Halo.

  8. Pokemon

    Here's where I will probably get hate. I'm talking about the main games on portable devices. Here's every Pokemon game from the Game Boy to X and Y: professor introduction. Get a starter. Grind. Fight rival. Grind. Get more Pokemon. Grind. Beat gym. Grind. Fight rival again. Grind, grind, grind.

    Pokemon is still fun, but it is repetitive.

  9. Angry Birds

  10. Temple Run

    11. The Newcomers
  11. ?

    Just Dance

  12. ?

    Life is Strange

    13. The Contenders

  13. Candy Crush

  14. Minecraft

  15. LittleBigPlanet

    Customize a person, place things, and walk around. That's all the LittleBigPlanet games.

  16. Leisure Suit Larry

  17. Final Fantasy

  18. Sonic the Hedgehog

    Sonic the Hedgehog is the title character and protagonist of the video game series of the same name released by SEGA. He has since appeared in numerous spin-off comics, several television shows, an animated OVA, and a live-action movie trilogy. Known for his incredible speed and signature blue color... read more

    Run fast. Run fast into enemies. Run fast into walls. Boom boom. That's Sonic. I do like Sonic games.

  19. Five Nights at Freddy's

  20. Metal Gear

  21. Super Mario Bros.

    I'm a Nintendo fan myself, but the Mario series, specifically the 2D platforming ones, just doesn't rub me right. All you do is jump, stomp things, go in pipes, and get coins. The New Super Mario Bros. games are the best example.

  22. Crazy Frog Racer

  23. Uncharted

  24. The Legend of Zelda

    I'm talking about the main gameplay here. Shoot things, slice things, grapple things, and so on. I know Zelda was innovative when it was new, but not anymore.

    Now it's just the same thing over and over.

  25. Supreme Commander

  26. New Super Mario Bros

  27. Assassin's Creed
