When you hear "Castlevania...

I linked the video to go straight to 2:40.

That was everything I hate about 3D platformers. Good god

The forced item collecting and adventure elements are what I generally hate about 3D platformers. To the credit of the N64 Castlevanias, they at least tried to capture the essence of what 2D platforming was all about.

So, Ack, did you ever make it past the first obstacle in the game?

You mean the part where you realize it sucks?

No, the part after.

I kid, I kid. I love that game.

I notice I'm the only one who voted "3D Castlevania".

Ah, so you're the culprit.

Actually no, I've been playing Jet Force Gemini pretty much for the last week or so. That game is fun but somewhat agonizing at times.

Is that game endless?

Hell all of Rare's N64 platformers were like the longest games ever. Banjo Tooie, DK64, and Jet Force Gemini ... only beat DK64 out of those and it felt like it was at least 100 hours long, without even collecting everything.

JFG has the three characters take their path through their own levels, til they all get to the middle. Then there's a boss battle, then you go back to other characeter's planets and collect pieces of your ship. It's not as bad as the collectathon that DK64 is.

Yeah, I'm in the second half, where you collect the parts of your ship. I have most of them now, but some of the things you have to do really irks me, like going back to every level to save all the Tribals or having to get Gold ranks in the Floyd Missions. I really, really hate the Floyd Missions.
