A new generation of consoles means a fresh start, a clean slate – a perfect time to introduce new IP’s… or breath fresh breath into long forgotten franchises which deserve a second chance. We put our collective heads together and asked out readers and came up with a list of relics from the past that need to be dusted off and given another chance. We take a look at the top 30 game franchises that need to come out of retirement and make an appearance on the shiny next-gen hardware.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."
3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best
Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...
5, 3, 1, 4, 2.
I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.
But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me
The new Nintendo-focused emulator for the iPhone is now available with support for several classic systems.
Won't belong before Nintendo bangs on Apple's door to have the emu removed. Like I say you take down one six more take it's place. Problem is people are putting emu's on such stupid platforms. The good emus are the ones not on stupid platforms like a red target. The good emu's are word of mouth and keep a low profile.
GB: "With this feature, we will be taking a look at 15 of the best games from the PlayStation 2's vast library."
Prince of Persia,cause forgotten sands and a FRIGGIN mobile game dont count.
Double dragon, battletoads, megaman
suikoden or bust!
For fucks sake, I lost my social life to TimeSplitters 2 & 3 back in the days. Whoring 4 player split-screen matches with my buddies was one of the best and most fun I've ever had in gaming.
Pls bring back us a HD collection ;(..
All really good ones, I'd certainly like to add the Gauntlet series. I've been itching to play it for a while. Even if they just put it on the various systems respective shops I'd be happy with that.
