The game was developed by many of Rare's former employees, leading fans to believe that the new mascots would finally deliver the modern sequel to Banjo-Kazooie that they had been crying out for.
Unfortunately, Yooka-Laylee didn't live up to expectations. The main criticism was, ironically, that it was too similar to the classic N64 game. However, now that the dust has settled and the high expectations have subsided, Yooka-Laylee is deservedly being recognized as one of the Xbox One's best 3D platformers. The game features fantastic, open levels that offer great collect-a-thon entertainment.
Battle for Bikini Bottom was, and as the Rehydrated remake proved, still is, a game that divides most fans and critics. This is best exemplified by the game's PS4 Metacritic page , as it has a Metascore of 68 but a user score of 8. This jarring difference makes sense when playing the game, as objectively it doesn't have any gameplay mechanics that one could point to and say are better than any top game in the platforming genre.
But subjectively, the game is great fun to play as it is bursting with color, charisma, and nostalgia for fans of the Nickelodeon show.
There isn't much to say about Rare's classic collect-a-thon Banjo-Kazooie that hasn't already been said. The game revolutionized the collect-a-thon genre by filling its iconic, open levels to the brim with well-hidden items that often required the player to learn new gameplay mechanics or continuously improve upon their use of the pre-existing ones.
The former N64 exclusive came to the Xbox a few years after Microsoft purchased Rare. Fans haven't given up hope for a new entry in the series. Hopefully, the Xbox Series X S will finally be the console to house a new game with the bear and bird.
Double Fine hit the ground running with Psychonauts , a surprise success that forced its way into the limelight of the gaming industry in The game offers great platforming sections and collect-a-thon elements that players would expect.
However, it differentiates itself with its implementation of psychic abilities that offer unique gameplay mechanics, rather than just being a gimmick. Furthermore, Psychonauts has more dialogue than most platformers, enhancing the game's world with entertaining characters and well-written lines. Thankfully, Psychonauts is no longer among the unfortunately high number of great platformers that have been devoid of a modern sequel.
Xbox Game Studios announced that they're teaming up with the original's developer Double Fine to release Psychonauts 2 in Similar to Yooka-Laylee , A Hat In Time started life as a Kickstarter project that promised to bring gamers back to the golden days of platformers and collect-a-thons. The game didn't disappoint, with its brilliantly designed open levels and heartwarming art style that makes A Hat In Time an absolute joy to play.
However, it lost out to the revolutionary battle-royale game PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. Crash Bandicoot was Sony's attempt to create their own mascot to rival Nintendo's Mario.
The fact that the orange marsupial has appeared on a whole manner of non-Sony consoles, specifically Xbox, is indicative of Crash not reaching those lofty heights. Naughty Dog, the developer of the original PS1 trilogy, can't be faulted for Crash's shortcomings though, as they did their part by creating three fantastic 3D platformers.
The N. Sane Trilogy is a remake of the PS1 trilogy that plays more like a remaster as very little is changed in terms of level design. This isn't an issue, though, as Naughty Dog's levels still hold up today and offer the best 3D platforming on this list.
The Spyro Reignited Trilogy is the most obvious choice for this list. This led to many fans giving up on the series, and the games stopped coming after 's Dawn of the Dragon. Ten years later, though, Toys For Bob and Activision breathed new life into the series with their excellent remake of the classic PS1 trilogy.
Considering Toys For Bob and Activision recently teamed up to make a direct sequel to the Bandicoot's original trilogy, there is reason to hope that the purple dragon will get the same treatment.
