I'm familiar with franchises killed because their owners decided to dump the original genre and turn them into fancy (read "crappy") 3D shooters, but now there's a new killer in town that even a shooter can't escape.
XIII The Lost Identity. A hidden object game...

Gameplay, level design? Why? Just photoshop shit on other shit.

that has already been like that a year ago.
and then they pass them on as adventure games sigh. which gets you excited and disappointed upon new releases.

I first noticed, when City Interactive turned their only improving point 'n' click adventure series Art of Murder into that crap.

This brand of garbage is one of the reasons I avoid visiting Big Fish. :)

edit :

speaking of Big Fish Games :
HOG = Hidden Object Game ... this is a straightforward find the objects game.

IHOG = Interactive Hidden Object Game = you have to interact with some of the objects.

FROG = Fractured Object Game ... the objects are all in pieces and have to be assembled before you can use them.

LFA = Large File Adventure ... you find different items and wander around solving puzzles and

HOPA = Hidden Object Puzzle Adventure ... is the best of of the lot with some hidden object scenes set in a mini adventure.

If that disturbing simplification trend continues (and spreads to even more franchises than it already has), then Deus Ex 4 will consist of nothing else beyond a randomly appearing "WIN!" button that you need to click. And it will be published on facebook. And for 10$ extra, you can buy "augmentations" that flash a sign, or play a sound, when the button appears. And for 15$ extra you can buy a special augmentation that clicks the button for you.

Jesus that looks like hot ass.

I mean, when I'd heard about the game the first time I at least thought there'd be the strong art style to prop it up but even that's barely present.

Isn't that what Jurassic Park: The Game is?

Yea, apart from the fact that the "WIN" button seem to be broken half of the time in Jurassic Park.
