Crash Bandicoot is excellent especially 2 and the new 4 that just released, in fact Crash 4 is so good that it's probably in my top ten games. Also when playing a Crash game, do a 100%, unless you want it to feel like the 6/10 you just mentioned. (Even though I would have said 8/10 for a any%)

      I disagree as someone who played to completion only the Wii (yes I've played the PS1 original). And I understand where you coming from but the point of a remake is not to just throw you back into the year the game was made, the point is to introduce an old title to new people AND utilize newer technology to enhance the original. The point of a remake is not to be objectively better than the original, it's suppose to be kinda like a look into an old title through new lenses and bring it to the latest console. And in MY opinion (before you freak out) it did exactly all that, and it managed to make me love Klonoa even more.

      @travisjordan3853 4 года назад +1

      Arc Rise Fantasia's similarity to the Tales games is almost certainly not a coincidence as the game's director, Hiroyuki Kanemaru, not only worked at Namco Tales Studio, who were responsible for the Tales games, he also worked at Telenet Japan, the video game development studio that Namco Tales Studio were associated with back when they were called Wolf Team.

      I was so hyped for Arc Rise when I randomly saw it in some game magazine. But I think it went through localization delays? The English dub was atrocious. I honestly don't remember much about how good the story was. I only played it once. I remember there being a lot of things about the story I didn't like. Yet I'd say most Tales of Games that came out before and after Arc Rise are much better JRPGs

    OH....MY....GOD! Someone else knows about Arc Rise! I have put SOOOOOO many hours into that game and I have only finished it maybe 3 times? But it is SOOOO good! Yes the voice acting is cringey and it is a tad grindy, but there is so much to do, the characters are interesting, there are quite a few genuine plot twists(though some are predictable) and the battle system works really well so as not to be boring. As far as RPGs go, this and Legend of Legaia are two of my favorites that NOBODY talks about. Also I am convinced that this has some loose link to Skies of Arcadia just based on some of the character designs and ideas but I have never found any proof. But anyway, you get a like from me just for bringing it up!

    • @NYCJoeBlack

      I was fortunate enough to follow the development of the original Sin & Punishment for the N64. Was disappointed to hear that the gane was done, was in English, and just needed to be pressed to cartridge and sent out to retail, but Nintendo changed their minds on a US release. I immediately ordered one from eBay at a very good price for a new copy.

    • @NYCJoeBlack
      @NYCJoeBlack 4 года назад

      The Wii version was very difficult and did not have the same appeal as it’s N64 counterpart. I remember seeing the game at Toy’s R Us for $5 as well as Steel Diver for the Nintendo 3DS.

    I'm not sure I agree with your definition of shovelware... For me, it's always been games that reek of no effort and are pushed out just for a quick dollar, and flood out the good games. That helicopter game and you talking about how it actually works all right and is recommended for some people? That's not shovelware. Ninjabread Man... that's a game with horrid controls, horrid gameplay, horrid graphics, no effort. THAT's shovelware. The helicopter game looks like it's pleasant, runs okay, and the gameplay looks kind of fun (assuming of course the controls really are as okay as you claim). Forgotten or underrepresented =/= shovelware.

  • @GELTONZ

    So about Mario Sports Mix: The game is actually not dumbed down at all...but they NEVER tell you how to play in ANY of the tutorials or menus or the instruction book. Only in the between round loading screens do they tell you about the meat of the game...and most games are one round by default so you never see them. Stuff like in Dodgeball if you run forward until your starts spakling and their run animation changes, throwing will do a Special Throw that has a rainbow behind it and moves in unique ways depending on the character. Running over the line causes your character to auto-jump and if you run until you sparkle and then auto-jump and throw you'll do an Air Special Throw. Yeah...that's not in any tutorial or control menu. Just the loading screens.
    This is also what lead to the negative reviews as while Mushroom Cup is so mindlessly easy you can beat it without this knowledge, Star Cup is brutal and most reviewers accused it of cheating when in reality the game just started using all the mechanics it has but never told you about.
    Yeah. I know. Dumbest game flaw ever. "Hey guys lets make a game with lots of good mechanics and never tell anyone how they work!"

    The Klonoa remake is a standout but also games like Muramasa: The Demon Blade, Red Steel 2, No More Heroes 1&2, both Boom Blox games, Disaster: Day of Crisis, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, the two Trauma Center games (though we never got Trauma Team in Australia, nor did we get Arc Rise Fantasia for that matter), Zack & Wiki and plenty of others.
