What are your favorite 3D platformers that aren't praised, well-known titles (Mario 64, DK64, Banjo-Kazooie, etc.)? I'm particularly looking for fifth and sixth gen titles
Alpha Waves
>>12231679I wonder if Jumping Flash devs played this game
>>12231679only bongs played it, it wasn't popular at all in the US and never got released in asia
>>12231657Pic unrelated? Everyone fucking knows Spyro.
>>12231708 (me)meant to reply to >>12231697
>>12231708>aren't praised, well-known titles
>>12231708>>12231715I see
I think Glover is unironically good. The N64 version at least, the PS1 port is terrible.
>>12231708did you even read the OP? retard

Mort the Chicken (PSX), obviously.
>>12231657Maximo should regularly be at the top of peoples 3D platformer lists, but it's sadly neglected.
Its sorta 3D
>>12231679Is that the Raynal game from before AITD?
>>12231657I love Crash Bandicoot clones from the late 90s and early 2000s, mainly Donald Duck: Goin' Quackers/Quack Attack, Lilo & Stitch: Trouble in Paradise, Scooby-Doo and the Cyber Chase, Barbie: Explorer... all of them worse than Crash Bandicoot, but still decent and worth playing if you're into the style of 3D corridor/hallway platforming.
>>12232015
>>12231871He worked on the PC port. The original was an Atari ST game by Christophe de Dinechin.
>>12231850This is a nice one. For another Saturn 3d platformer, there's Ninpen ManMaru, but I think it's kinda just an average game (like most Saturn games)>>12231657Silicon Valley is pretty good too.Mercury Meltdown is a pretty good puzzle/platformer. The Wii version has the tightest motion controls on the system, but the /vr/ version is on PS2 (I've never played that version)It's not /vr/ but Super Sami Roll is an excellent gen 5/6-type pure platformer with buttery smooth controls that allow you to pull off some amazing movement tech.
>>12232021I remember playing the demo that came with the Playstation magazine.
>>12232021This is overrated. Shit is boring as fuck. Game is carried hard by art style and everyone assuming it's like a 3D GnG (it's not).
Pac Man WorldJersey DevilGex 2-3Rayman 2Croc 1/2 (play PC version of 2 to use tank controls)Not really platformers but then again neither is the Spyro you posted:Toy Story 2BlastoBugs Bunny Lost in TimeMuppet Monster Adventure>>12231708You underestimate Japanese devs. Because a game didn't release in Japan doesn't mean they wouldn't have played it. They seeked out this kind of stuff. When Nasir joined Squaresoft everyone there knew about him and his games, no they hadn't released in Japan.
Bomberman 64 and Bomberman Hero on N64 are decent. They were fairly hyped up around release, and were well known during the N64's lifespan, but no one really talks about them in retrospect. Glover, Ape Escape, Rayman 2, and Pac-Man World are all similar, being big deals on release, but not as well remembered as Banjo/Crash/Spyro.
>>12232345>don't underestimate the japanese dev, m8! u know they played antiriad and stole the idea for metroid roight!?
>>12231742He meant to reply to this: >>12231697
>>12231657Metroid Prime
>>12231835At least he showed up in pizza tower
Muppets on ps1
Looney Tunes Sheep Raider - perhaps the single greatest OST on PS1
Dumb thread.
>>12235091Fuck you, nigger
>>12231657Jersey Devil and MediEvil
>>12231657>aren't praised, well-known titlesLike totally overlooked, slept-upon hidden gem of Spyro trilogy in your pic?
>>12235091Do better
>>12235136MediEvil is appropriately rated. I love it and it’s one of my favorites, but the platforming is easily the worst part.
bump
>>12235091Yet here (You) are posting in it. Curious!
>>12231657Kingsley's Adventure is being mentioned from time to time - it's not fantastic but it's good enough if you have an evening to spare.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFThqx5gXrQI'll also never understand the hate for Rascal - sure, it only has like one boss fight copypasted for entire game, but otherwise I actually enjoyed it as a kid, even with tank controls and above average difficulty.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEP_4BZk_js>>12232345>Gex>Rayman>Croc>underrated>>12233963I actually replayed it recently - the idea behind abilities is fine and the artstyle is okay, but man you can tell it's some cheap clone of Spyro 2 (a bunch of copypasted mini-games, enemy models are being reused with minimal changes across levels, very short OST even if it's good) and that's my least favourite Spyro game out of original trilogy so this isn't some biased bashing of Muppets game.
>>12231657Spyro 1.People like 2 and 3 better but I just dislike the mission system! I hate backtracking, I hate alternative gameplay systems for mini games. I didn't like it in Mario 64 and Banjo series either.But Spyro 1? You just plug and play, no distraction. Pure 3D platforming with no mini games and side missions or even cutscenes outside of beginning and end (dragons are fast and skipable) it's just THE most 2D platformer-like full 3D platformer. Just go ahead and beat levels, explore and have fun.
>>12231657>What are your favorite 3D platformers that aren't praised, well-known titles (Mario 64, DK64, Banjo-Kazooie, etc.)?The greatest 3D platformer of all-time: Mirror's Edge.But from 5th and 6th Ape Escape and Chibi Robo are nice
>>12233963Fuck off tendie
