| Barozi said: If you want platformers go and look up some PSN/XBLA games. Many of them are on par with Wii platformers (aside from the Mario games):
Limbo, Braid, Shadow Complex, Splosion Man, The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom, N plus, Bionic Commando Rearmed, Trine to name only a few. |
This can be viewed both positively and negatively to a degree. Especially for someone such as myself who favors platformers over every other genre of game. I have Braid, I have Limbo, I have 'Splosion Man and others (Castlevania, Mega Man, Banjo etc.), I'm getting N , Shadow Complex, and Bionic Commando Rearmed. My problem is these games always seem to be relegated to the online store, and end up being rather short and lacking in multiplayer features and achievements. That's not to say they're bad or worse than the retail platformers available on the Wii, just that they're relatively small in scope, whereas the retail games such as Super Mario Galaxy, New Super Mario Bros. Wii or Wario Land: The Shake Dimension last so much longer.
I just don't understand what's stopping devs from putting out full retail platformers on the X360, especially when they're so prevalent on the Wii.
How technical is your game?
