/vr/ - Retro Games

Rayman 2 is better than any Mario.

>>6496723
It's interestingly one of the most overrated mediocre games in existence, a strong 6/10

>>6496724
No, that would be SM64.

>>6496717
Banjo-__Tooie

>>6496723
I like it, but the controls aren't as great.

>>6496723
Is the dreamcast version really the definitive version? I don't want to get the console for just 1 game.

>>6496742
So use Redream.

>>6496723
Rayman 1 is better than 2

>>6496717
Not sure if its “retro” but I love Ty the Tazmanian Tiger

ps2 had a lot of good ones like ratchet & clank, jak and daxter, and sly cooper

Are you really that starved for attention that the best you can get are reactions to your unfounded discrediting of an universally acclaimed game?

>>6496742
Yes, the DC version is easily the best.
>>6496758
You've never played either of them.

And of course Ape Escape.

>>6496786
I own both on PS1 (the double pack) and I prefer Rayman 1 by a long shot.
Rayman 2 just bored me and I never finished it

>>6496818
Not only is the PS1 version of Rayman 2 gimped to all hell, Rayman 1 is a terrible game. It sounds and looks great but I've seen amateur games with better level design.

>>6496824
>Rayman 1 is a terrible game
>I've seen amateur games with better level design
What's wrong with the level design?

>>6496758
Agreed. I also prefer 2D games in general

>>6496724
I tried playing Rayman 2 and found it to be this.
Not that I want it to be like that, and I'm actually wondering what I did wrong playing it so that it would be better.

>>6496824
>>6496832
Probally couldn't get past Picture Land

>>6496723
The only thing rayman 2 really has going for it is the atmosphere and the music, the platforming si pretty average. Rayman 3 feels way better and has so much more going on
Legends > 3 > Origins > 2 > 1

Your pic, for one. I feel a strong urge to go and play that again now.

>>6496717
Not retro, but Spongebob Battle for Bikini Bottom and the Movie Game are a lot of fun (if you liked Spongebob growing up, that is.)

>>6496723
I agree completely. The Mario64 camera is unbearable. I also like the tone and atmosphere more.

>>6498628
Game?

>>6498747
Pacman world 1

>>6498628
oh this one is real fun also nice OST.

>>6498747
>not knowing what that is

I'll just go ahead and leave this place.

was it really that popular where you live?
i'm 30 and got a playstation about the same time that game came out, but had never heard of it until a few years ago when seeing a speedrun of it

>>6501948
(thinking about it, there's a chance i'd seen it, but dismissed it because.. i mean it's pacman, i didn't care about pacman)

>>6497829

wooooow

Donkey Kong 64

Found the millennial.

I know this is /vr/ and all but Rayman is a great example of a series where the modern games are better than the original retro games. 2 is okay, but it's overshadowed by other superior 3d platformers from the era. And 1 would easily be the better game of the two if not for the fact that it was clearly never playtested and is just too difficult for it's own good. Origins and Legends are undisputedly better games.

>>6503012
there's rayman games newer than 2?

>>6503012
>2 is okay, but it's overshadowed by other superior 3d platformers from the era
I don't think so. Rayman 2 is easily among the best.

>>6496717
Croc 2. Don't confuse it with the first game, they're very different. Love the aesthetics in the first one though.

>>6503386
i've only played 1, is it worth trying 2 now?

>>6503392
Sure, you should try it at least.

>>6503394
Is the Saturn version better than the PS1 version? Right now I'm leaning towards the Saturn version based on the novelty of it being one of two 3D platformers on the system.

>>6503436
>Is the Saturn version better than the PS1 version?
No, the Saturn was worse at 3D. The PS1 release was the base version that both the Saturn and PC port were based on. Also, there's no Saturn port of Croc 2, only the first game. Either way, if you have a Windows PC with CRT connected to it, I recommend the PC versions.

Megaman Legends.
I´ll die in this hill

Over the Banjos? Why?

>>6503386
Did Croc 2 get a Dreamcast release?

>>6504119
No, only PS1 and Windows.

>>6496717
Being a Bubsy game is the reason why many hasn't played this masterpiece.

>>6496717
There's a whole a lot of them for 6th gen consoles, considering that 6th gen stuff is already retro with Dreamcast/PS2/Xbox/Gamecube

>>6506193
Never will be, sweetie.

>>6506197
You wish. The amount of topics that you can talk about the current lineup is already steadily dwindling as people begin to lose interest in them.

You can talk so much of them until it gets stale for you.

>>6506218
You're free to leave, or just put up with it negro.

>>6506176
what about rascal?
