As a platformer junkie, I have to give a shout out to Mario and Sonic, the two icons of the platforming genre. I mean, with games like Super Mario World, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Super Mario Galaxy, and Sonic & Knuckles... it's just a beautiful thing. *sheds tear*
Don't get me wrong, other companies (like Naughty Dog and Rare) have made some darn great platformers too! And it's great to see a resurgence of platformers this generation with WarioLand, A Boy and His Blob, LittleBigPlanet, Ratchet & Clank, de Blob, Klonoa... and of course all of the Sonic and Mario titles. It feels great to be a Platformer fan.
