Was struck by a forgotten realisation today while playing Mario 64 - the game was released 10 months after Yoshi's Island
Yoshi's Island was a nice swansong for the Super Nintendo - and Mario 64 was an amazing revolution in 3D platform games that showed just what the N64 could do. Both are great, but I've never been overly fond of Mario 64, so Yoshi's Island is my favourite of two. Yoshi's is near perfect, except for the annoying sound of baby Mario crying.
I enjoyed what I played of the DC version. The PS2 version is a little different of course with the third person perspective but I'm looking forward to it.
You know, I really must have something in me that just can't appreciate Treasure games. I mean, I like Guardian Heroes. I bought it on the first week of Japanese release but I just never thought it was as great as everyone said it was. Same with 90% of Treasure games. I always though that maybe I didn't like complex games but that isn't it. Hmm, it's like why I don't get excited over any Mario game either.
I'm in agreement partly. I don't like many of them but I do appreciate why most of them are liked.
I like most of Treasure's games, but I only love a few. Radiant Silvergun is my favourite by far. I enjoy Gunstar Heroes quite a bit. Guardian Heroes is also a special game. Treasure also did a great job with Gradius V.
I hope they get back to making cool run 'n gun games and maybe some shooters.
