Some ads are just too fucking good to ever let fade away. There was a whole series of bizarely sexual ads for the PS2 launch and even though they're not really explicit[spoilerly about PS2, rather just the Playstation brand[/spoiler] I probably won't post them since they're technically verbotten.

Tomb Raider isn't, it's just undergone a visual change and lost a lot of what made it unique with movement and controls

Metal Gear Solid isn't dead either, it just wishes it was. Survive is still slated to come out soon

Crash Bandicoot is getting a fucking awful unity engine remake of the first 3 games by some god awful mobile phone game company, and has had games pumped out non-stop by Activision until then.

Spyro might be dead but the Skylanders series isn't and TECHNICALLY that series started out as a Spyro game. TECHNICALLY.

Final Fantasy XV came out recently and XIV is constantly getting expansions and content upgrade. In fact Final Fantasy is always getting more stuff pumped out.

Croc, Parappa, Ape Escape, Twisted Metal and Medievil are finished for now but as you can see from what happened to the others, that's probably for the best. Most of the characters in that picture showed up in that Playstation All Stars game on the PS3, the smash clone that noone on this earth enjoyed.
