I always imagined that song on the hog level to have the lyrics

Mario 64 was popular so they all copied it.

But instead of copying what was good about it(the movement) they copied the idea collecting maguffins in an open area and gave the task of collecting them to characters with incredibly simple movement.

Perople got sick of platformers where your only moves are JUMP and JUMP INTO FLOAT, all trying to be the next banjo.

Because they were the gritty modern FPS of their time.

Mario 3D platformers are still good.
Sure they don't have the creativity that 64 had and the movement that Sunshine got, but they are still very good

Galaxy is better than 64 and sunshine.

At least Ratchet and Clank is still alive and showing signs of improving again after that experimental phase

Crash bandicoot was such a great series it's a shame it went so far downhill after the first few games. Twinsanity was the last good one

It's still odd to me that one of the first forays into 3d platforming got freedom of movement down better than the vast majority of games that came after it. Maybe Mario 64 being simple graphically was the difference.

Jesus fuck, Crash games are full of adult stuff.

I'll concede it's better than 64 (which controlled like shit, despite what /v/ claims), but Sunshine was better than Galaxy.

No anon that's just your head.

Damn PCSXR makes these games look great.
Too bad the Windows version will never be finished.

>>320116445
Hog Wild is one of my favorite levels of any game. That music is catchy as hell, and I can get all boxes easily. There's just something so satisfying about hugging those turns and getting difficult boxes.

>>320117702
They had different strengths. Sunshine controlled the tightest, but galaxy had the GOAT themes and level design. 64 on the other hand os what started them all and was more balanced. Controlling mario felt amazing and it didnt feel as gimmicky as sunshine. In fact, it didnt feel gimmicky at all. It was pure vidya. Bad thing is that camera didnt help in most difficult platforming sections, water levels were boring and some other details. Also the theme is absolutely vanilla compared to galaxy games.

FPSe is better.

Now play the vastly superior Tomba! series.

they're different kinds of games, it's unfair to compare them really

Fuck I love the first Tombi and its art style.
