RE: Video game franchises that were at the top
I thought of a couple that were all the rage and then for some reason or another just kind of left. F-Zero springs to mind at first because I loved it on SNES and then kinda liked it in later episodes and then it was just gone.
Legacy of Kain was brilliant despite the very bad problems it had on PS1 where the hardware wasn't actually powerful enough to run all that was on the screen. Later 3-D game was one of my favorites ever and then they too, just kind of went away despite a brilliant story. I have heard that the developers continually butted heads and they kind of agreed to disagree and haven't done much since.
How about Twisted Metal?
According to the creator of F-Zero indicated that it has not released a new version because it would not surpass the videogame released for Game Cube.
Legacy of Kain, as you well indicate, was simply an excellent game, each delivery left you surprised, I still don't understand why they didn't continue with that excellent story.
Twisted Metal was another of the games that eventually disappeared, in its beginnings in PSX was incredible, but unfortunately did not evolve like other video games and in the end remained as an obsolete game.
