@SwagaliciousJohnson Yooka Laylee failed only because Playtonic are a bunch of disingenuous pandering has-beens that don't know what made Banjo Kazooie so good to begin with. Did you know they gave this dumb excuse as to the reason they never made Banjo-Threeie because they thought there wasn't an audience for it on Xbox... because Grabbed by The Ghoulies didn't sell too well. They then made Nuts and Bolts, talked about how proud they are of the project only to turn around during the Yooka Laylee Kickstarter about how much of a bad idea it was :/

Re: Super Mario Sunshine Is Now 18 Years Old

It may not be my favorite 3D Mario game but I absolutely love how Mario controls. Though one thing that always bugged me since when I was a kid was how obtuse it was to unlock Corona Mountain. There's like no hint at all on the requirements and when you do find out you realize how all of the side shine sprites that aren't the first 7 missions in each level are completely worthless.

Re: Sega Wants To Take "Good Care" Of 2D And 3D Sonic In The Future

The issue with 3D Sonic is Sonic Team has always been them being too afraid to stick to a formula and try to refine it. I've given Sonic Heroes a try a few weeks back for the first time and I enjoyed it a fair bit. It has plenty of flaws but it's something that could've been improved if they tried to do more with it in one more game. Sadly they stripped away the team mechanic and decided to run with the mission structure in the game Shadow The Hedgehog only to abandon that and horribly botch the adventure style in Sonic 06 a year later...
