do you prefer 2d or 3d platformers?

3D Platformers, preferably 5th Gen style. Sadly those are being avoided like the plague since halfway through the 6th Gen, so today I'll take anything.

I agree. From the N64 collect-a-thons (SM64, Banjo) to PS1 Spyro, Crash, Ape Escape. That gen had the best collection of 3D platformers, nowadays 3D pure platformers like Galaxy which I liked, are few and far between.

Ratchet & Clank is good too, though it has more emphasis on weapons than platforming.

My words exactly .

Have only played Ratchet & Clank (I think it was the first one for PS3) a single time, briefly, maybe I should take a further look someday. I usually think a 3D Platform/Adventure hybrid like that works out well so those games might work for me.

The original R&C has aged horribly IMO.  Up Your Arsenal and Going Commando are both amazing, but I don't know if you'll want to buy the collection before trying the games out, so A Crack in Time might be a good one to start with. While it probably isn't my favorite, I consider it the best in the series, if that makes sense.
