Although most hardcore Fallout fans despite the change, I thought it was generally well received. Grand Theft Auto - Who can really argue here? I'm not a big GTA fan (I've maybe put a few hours into each game just to see how long I could outrun the cops while mowing down pedestrians) but the change from 2D to 3D made this franchise. Warcraft - I was a big fan, until Warcraft 3 came out. I really hated the blocky, cartoonish look of the 3D models. Starcraft 2 looks to have fixed that issue, while going with a more mature 3D look.
