Title: Which franchise have you beaten the most games in?
Post by: kashell on October 30, 2019, 12:45:51 pm
I saw this question asked on another forum. I thought it would be fun to discuss here. This isn't counting the same game across different platforms.

For me, it's Mega Man. I've finished 31 Mega Man games.

Mega Man
Mega Man 2
Mega Man 3
Mega Man 4
Mega Man 5
Mega Man 6
Mega Man 7
Mega Man and Bass
Mega Man 8
Mega Man 10
Mega Man 11
Mega Man X
Mega Man X2
Mega Man X3
Mega Man X4
Mega Man X5
Mega Man X6
Mega Man X7
Mega Man X8
Mega Man X Command Mission
Mega Man Legends
Mega Man Zero
Mega Man Zero 2
Mega Man Zero 3
Mega Man Zero 4
Mega Man ZX
Mega Man ZX Advent
Mega Man Xtreme
Mega Man Xtreme 2
Mega Man Maverick Hunter X
Mega Man Power Battle

That would be the 'Musou' series (IE Dynasty Warriors and its brethren).

DW 2
DW 3
DW 4
DW 5
DW 5 Empires
DW 7
DW 7 Empires
DW 8
DW 8 Empires
Samurai Warriors 2
Samurai Warriors 4
Samurai Warriors 4 II
Warriors Orochi
Warriors Orochi 2
Warriors Orochi 3

It was a favourite series of mine, I'm still interested in the likes of Warriors Orochi 4, but the series peaked extremely early with Dynasty Warriors 3, the developers have buggered about with a few things like the combo system (hence why DW 6 isn't here) and an open world style (ditto DW 9). DW 3's massive roster of enemy types, huge battlefields and things like customisable bodyguards were amazing at the time it was released. Instead of figuring out how to make the battlefields more dynamic (like allowing you to bolster allied officers' forces with some of your own units so they're not constantly needing rescuing, whereas you have less support, for instance), instead it's the same tired formula but with hardly any allied soldiers on the battlefield and dispoable enemy fodder. In DW8 you could sweep up non-officer enemies like you were brushing the step, there was even a button to mash for that attack. Nah, it's lost its way, badly.

Pretty much Mega Man and Pokémon.

I don't know.

There are a lot of franchises that I've only played a couple of games.  I wouldn't be surprised if the answer for me is Assassin's Creed with 14 games.  Never beat Origins, and haven't played the other chronicles games, Freedom Cry, nor Odyssey.

Assassin's Creed
Assassin's Creed II
Assassin's Creed III
Assassin's Creed IV
Assassin's Creed Unity
Assassin's Creed Rogue
Assassin's Creed III Liberation
Assassin's Creed Syndicate
Assassin's Creed Bloodlines
Assassin's Creed Altair's Chronicles
Assassin's Creed II: Discovery
Assassin's Creed Brotherhood
Assassin's Creed Revelations
Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China

If you count the spin offs of the Mario franchise it might beat that, but are we really considering Mario Kart/Party/Golf/Tennis/Sports/Dr. Mario/etc part of the Mario franchise?

Post by: turf on October 30, 2019, 05:27:51 pm
Probably the mainline Mario games. I think there’s 17 since I never finished Sunshine.
Super Mario Bros
Super Mario Bros 2
Super Mario Bros 3
Super Mario Land
Super Mario Land 2
Super Mario World
Yoshi’s Island: Super Mario World 2
Super Mario 64
Super Mario Sunshine
New Super Mario Bros
New Super Mario Bros Wii
Super Mario Galaxy
Super Mario Galaxy 2
Super Mario 3D Land
New Super Mario Bros 2
New Super Mario Bros U
Super Mario 3D World
Super Mario Odyssey

It might end up being Mega Man also for me, primarily because I went through both of the collections for it, including Mega Man Legends 1, 2, and Mega Man 11.  This number is likely to go way up with the Mega Man Zero collection which I never played before lol

Mega Man - 19 games

Legend of Zelda might be next with like a dozen games or so if we count Hyrule Warriors and Cadence of Hyrule, but that one gets abit tougher as I don't remember if I beat like Minish Cap and Oracles.

Other than fighting games such as the Street Fighter and The King of Fighters franchises, I'd say probablye the Metal Gear/Metal Gear Solid franchise. Including the original MSX games, the only ones I've never cleared (actually, I haven't even played) were Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance and Metal Gear Survive.

Fire Emblem for sure:
Fire Emblem Dark Dragon and the Sword of Light
Fire Emblem Gaiden
Fire Emblem Mystery of the Emblem
Fire Emblem Genealogy of the Holy War
Fire Emblem Thracia 776
Fire Emblem Sword of Seals
Fire Emblem
Fire Emblem The Sacred Stones
Fire Emblem Path of Radiance
Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn
Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon
Fire Emblem New Mystery of the Emblem
Fire Emblem Awakening

Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation

A close second is either Megami Tensei or Mario

Depends on what you’d consider a Mario game.  I’ve played and beaten all the core titles except for Sunshine.  I’ve also dabbled in the spin-off s.

Aside from the count me as another for Mega Man.  I’ve beaten 1-11, X1-3, and Zero.

Easily Mario, and Sonic would be a close second.

Lego Star Wars The Complete Saga
Lego Star Wars III
Lego Star Wars The Force Unleashed

For the Warriors games, I've gotten the completions for

Remakes definitely count.

Just nothing across multiple platforms. Like, I couldn't count Mega Man 3 three times since I beat it on three different consoles.

Mega Man, Street Fighter, The King of Fighters, Capcom Vs series, and Star Solider series.

Haven't played (or completed yet) the following: Mega Man 8,9,10,11, and Zero series. The King of Fighters '94, XII. Marvel Vs Capcom 3, Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3, Marvel Vs Capcom Infinite.

That would be the 'Musou' series (IE Dynasty Warriors and its brethren).

DW 2
DW 3
DW 4
DW 5
DW 5 Empires
DW 7
DW 7 Empires
DW 8
DW 8 Empires
Samurai Warriors 2
Samurai Warriors 4
Samurai Warriors 4 II
Warriors Orochi
Warriors Orochi 2
Warriors Orochi 3

It was a favourite series of mine, I'm still interested in the likes of Warriors Orochi 4, but the series peaked extremely early with Dynasty Warriors 3, the developers have buggered about with a few things like the combo system (hence why DW 6 isn't here) and an open world style (ditto DW 9). DW 3's massive roster of enemy types, huge battlefields and things like customisable bodyguards were amazing at the time it was released. Instead of figuring out how to make the battlefields more dynamic (like allowing you to bolster allied officers' forces with some of your own units so they're not constantly needing rescuing, whereas you have less support, for instance), instead it's the same tired formula but with hardly any allied soldiers on the battlefield and dispoable enemy fodder. In DW8 you could sweep up non-officer enemies like you were brushing the step, there was even a button to mash for that attack. Nah, it's lost its way, badly.

Not trying to get too off-topic, but if you like Zelda at all, you should really give Hyrule Warriors a shot if you haven't already! I've only played a little of DW8 (Vita) and DW8E (PS4), but IMO Hyrule Warriors just felt like a much more polished experience with more concise, well-designed gameplay.

That being said, I think the characters/thematics that attract people to DW never really attracted me, whereas the Zelda version does... so that could be a lot of reason for my personal preference.

In any case, I try to give it praise when I can. Give it a look, and maybe a try sometime! I've heard the Fire Emblem version is good too.

If I go by number of games played, it would be Pokemon, with 18
Pokemon Yellow
Pokemon Silver
Pokemon Crystal
Pokemon LeafGreen
Pokemon Ruby
Pokemon Emerald
Pokemon Platinum
Pokemon HeartGold
Pokemon White
Pokemon X
Pokemon Omega Ruby
Pokemon Moon
Pokemon Puzzle Challenge
Pokemon Trading Card Game
Pokemon Trading Card Game 2
Pokemon TCG Online
Pokemon Picross
Pokemon Shuffle

But that's partially because Pokemon has a ton of games in it. I've only beat about 24% of all Pokemon games. If we go by percentage of a franchise beat, it would be Ace Combat. Out of 17 games, I've beaten 8 (a hair under 50%).

Ace Combat 2
Ace Combat 4: Shattered Skies
Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War
Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War
Ace Combat: Assault Horizon
Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy
Ace Combat: Infinity
Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown


A runner up would be Mega Man

Mega Man 2
Mega Man 3
Mega Man 4
Mega Man 6
Mega Man X
Mega Man X4
Mega Man ZX
Mega Man ZX Advent
Mega Man Battle Network 3: Blue Moon
Mega Man Battle Network 5: Team Colonel
Mega Man Battle Network 6: Cybeast Falzar

Call of Duty :D.   I have played the franchise since I was a little kid and as many know.  They have extremely easy and short campaigns typically. 



Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare
Call of Duty World at War
Call of Duty MW2
Call of Duty MW3
Call of Duty MW
Call of Duty BO
Call of Duty BO2
Call of Duty BO3
Call of Duty IW
Call of Duty World War II
Call of Duty Finest Hour
Call of Duty AW


I also beat a few of those on multiple difficulties.


Second franchise would probably be need for speed. 

Need for Speed Carbon
Need for Speed Most Wanted
Need for Speed Pro Street
Need for speed shift
Need for speed Undercover
Need for speed
Need for speed rivals
need for speed hot pursuit

I see kinda what you're saying given the fact that Call Of Duty campaigns are usually short but still fun to play. But not push overs. Especially the game of Call Of Duty: Finest Hour, for both the GameCube and PlayStation 2 both.

Call Of Duty Finest Hour is hard for me even on easy. especially the American allies part of the Campaign. I played Call Of Duty: Finest Hour a lot, and did manage to complete the game for GameCube on Medium Difficulty once in my entire life. At the time in my life I considered myself to be good at this game single player.

 The Call of Duty franchise as a whole is fun to play, in my opinion single player. in which makes the game seem more easy than lets say a lot of other games due to actually being well done, spot on controls and not too many cheap deaths if you know what your doing,  oh yea and yes the later games had checkpoints too.
