All these new characters look lame and I am once again reminded that mascot-platformers, which at one point in time were my favorite genre, have gone to shit.
I plan on at least renting all the games mentioned. I suppose Blinx looks the most appealing.
Besides Blinx and Sly Cooper... lame.. :rolleyes:
I know Tron is going to run out and pick up Blinx, so I'll try that out.
I'm really interested in R&C - it seems a whole lot like Jet Force Gemini, which to me is a wonderful thing. Sly looks interesting, as well. But I'll probably hold off on those two, given the velocity with which most PS2 games wind up in the bargain bin.
The only one that intested me at E3 was sly cooper. It was still quite the generic 3D platformer though. I loved Rayman 2, but Rayman 3 seemed quite shitty.
Whatever, sunshine gave me my fix for the year.
Tork, bitches.
And TJ&E1 was far from a platformer, and 3 doesn't look like its any closer, really.
I don't like any of them.
I hate everything.
I might rent Blinx and Cooper, other wise nothig else interests me :)
That's 2003 I think...Quote:

I'm looking into Blinx and TJ&E III.
And Tork and Rayman 3 in 2003.
Its just like the early 90's Mascot Platform fest. 75% of the Mascots are just shit. Look at Vexx, Dr. Muto, and Ty the Tasmanian Tiger for god sakes! Those character designs are trash! Vexx is by far the worst of them all. I remeber seeing the original look of him, he was like a Badger. Now he is a stupid looking Human Badger things with stupid boots and stupid hands.
Dr. Muto, pffff. What a cliche and tired design. The standard mad scientist except drawn by an 6 year old.
And Ty the Tasmanian Devil....er Tiger might as well be a breakfest cereal mascot. I can only see him holding a spoon full of orange colored corn meal boomerangs.
Do the designers even look at the characters they drew? Good god.
I agree. More of an adventure game, really.Quote:
