Seriously boring games. A puzzle platformer with no platforming and no puzzles, great fucking job, guys. Go shove it with gimmick sections and tutorials every 10 feet in the sequel.

Blinx was early enough that Xbox hadn't really solidified its identity as the Halo shootan console yet and the conventional wisdom carried over from previous gens was that you needed a flagship scotformer.

Very dull game with very little going for it. It was clunky, yet not very challenging. And any challenge that did come from the game was due to how shitty the movement and engine felt as a whole. Why would any child into platformers get an Xbox for Blinx when the PS2 had Jak and Sly, and the Bing Bing wahoo lunchbox had Sunshine?

my point is it wasn't so "obvious" at the time that platformers were a non-starter on xbox and they were still finding their footing

God what perfect set of two games. If Microsoft was smart they would be making a new Banjo Kazooie & Blinx.

>Microsoft should be allocating funds for two mediocre and irrelevant platformers
Still a better idea than whatever they're doing right now, I guess.

Never got too far in it but I gotta admit, the game had a vibe. I look back at it fondly even if it was a janky mess.

vacuum cleaning is not gaming enough
